That’s myt girl, I love her. WB Lauren!

She is the berst in her music. I love Lauryn… I loved her when she was in the with the Fugees she has a very great singing voice!

Great…I love me some Lauryn Hil.. “X-Factor” and “The Sweetest Thing” will always be my favorites.

I hope if she’s really back we get another good album like Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. That was a classic album! She has to step it up. I hope she does a good job at whatever she’s rehearsing for. BigUp Lauryn. Do your thing.

my song from her last album was zion

Please come back, Lauryn!! The game needs you so bad right now. #2 you didn’t read the disclaimer?

Her song “Everything is Evrything” Used to be my shiznit…. Let alone I love all her songs. I mean really… She was good in the movie “Sister Act”, back in the day, & I just think that she’s a great artist.

She’s pretty, Talented, Has a great singing voice, What else can could she be Blessed with!

I’m happy for her. She’s doing herthing, She’s being Lauryn & That’s how it should be.

Keep up the good work Lauryn!

To be honest with you,I like ms.Hill but i do think she looks a hot one in that picture! lmao.its almost like it’s a joke. what is she thinking? she looks like a tar baby. lol I think she waited to long to come back.Just like wendy williaims said on her show i dont think people are that interested anymore.

Let the church say…

AMEN!

The Unplugged album had a couple of hot songs, the guitar got on my nerves halfway through the first disc. But lyrically, it was fire. Hopefully, she’s learned a few more chords.

I’d love to see her kids, work your magic Tianna!

i liked her unplugged album i know people clowned it but i loved it more than the miseducation.but im not feelin this new look ms.hill

Hey Karim, I loved her Unplugged album as well. I guess some people just didn’t get it.

#9 you’re a damn fool! She’s a highly anticipated comeback and if you’re not interested anymore, maybe you were never a true fan. Wendy Williams has some nerve. The post stated that this was a rehearsal, artists never look as fly at a rehearsal as they do at the actual performance. Tar baby? Hell no!

Lauryn Hill has always been in touch with her emotional, passionate, soulful side…I think she should come back solo again!

Even when she is at her lowest point she still posesses a great sense of self…something that many artists today lack.

#14 you said some real sh^^ then!! I love me some Lauryn and am glad she is coming back. Finally we can get some real music without all the smoke and screens.

AND???????????????

and… it’s about got damn time! That’s what!

@ jewel13..

wtF are you talking about?

how the hell am I the FOOL!..your the one that took MY comment out of context!

im not about to debate with you back and fourth because I dont argue with fools, but I just couldnt resist letting you know you dont know what the fuck your talking about!

when I said let the church say AMEN i was talking about the title of the post which is…

WORD IS, LAURYN HILL IS BAAAACK!

now once again..

LET THE CHURCH SAY AMEN!!!!!!!!!!

BE BLESSED!

@ #9
Amen

YES JESUS….GOD ANSWERED MA PRAYERS

OK_AND?,

I’m not tryin’ to take Up for Jewel13, but I think she meant to put Comment #8 instead of your comment which was comment #9. It’s alright!

Welcome Back to the Loop, I see that you’ve been gone for a minute.

Take care.

Tar Baby! OMG…what in the world?! Lauryn is a nubian queen!

Good looking out Gela!

oh…

well if so I apologize…

thanks for the welcome back…

like Kanye says…”IT FEELS GOOD TO BE HOME” (but if you must know i’ve been on here just havent been posting comments)

@ #18 OK_AND?
I think jewel13 was referring to #8 she just got her numbers mixed up

#18 the comment was directed at the post before yours, #8, karim If you had read what I said, and knew that you didn’t say those things, why would you feel the need to respond that way? I was distracted by my fax machine, and my coffee hasn’t kicked in yet.

Be easy, baby, it wasn’t that serious. No one wants to see her back on the scene more than I do.

I hope she brings it like she used to if/when she drops another album.

I still blast the miseducation album. That sucka got off.

I’ll reserved my joy till I can see a performance either via TV or youtube.

I liked her unplugged album as well but in performing there always seems to be this shroud/shadow hanging over her.

I need more proof than an article to start believing again

Thanks, Gela and shithappens! Crazy shit going on in the office today!

A 2cents….sorry but ole girl lost it, she was never all that any damn way….now what?

@ Jewel13

Sure no prob.

Anytime jewel13

I just hope she’s the same Lauryn, ya know. I mean I’m sure she’s grown as an artist but I hope I can still tell without a doubt that it’s Lauryn. What’s the name of her song with Method Man?? Her voice sounds so good.

I wish her the best either way tho, I got much respect for her. Welcome back to the scene Lauryn

#33 Meth took that sample from her track “so much things to say” on her Unplugged album. She does sound good though.

And before ya’ll jump on me the comment previously posted at #2 was deleted. I’d neva diss Gela! She’s too nice.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill is one of the best albums! I loved Lauryn Hill back then. She was speaking the truth, not trying to be super sexy or crunk. I hope she comes back with another album like that. Or one even better!

YES YES YES. come back Ms. Hill. we’s ready fo’ya

LAURYN, LAURYN, LAURYN!!!!!! (chanting….)
Come back and shut the game down please…cause people real need some true art and soul right now…Anthony Hamilton can’t hold it down alone LOL

———————————————-

LMAO!!!!
Can I tell you I have a copy in my truck, in my walkman and in my stereo at home. That has to be my all time favorite CD. I wish her much sucess. She is a very talented young lady.

If she comes with the hotness, I’m willing to forgive all that craziness she’s been exhibiting for the last few years. But only IF!

Good! she needs to come back, with a different look too.

I’m sorry BUT that Unplugged album was Staright GARBAGE… JMO
With what SHE did with the Fugees and the soundtracks and THAT Grammy of a Bombshell Solo Debut… And she straight KILLED IT on Grammy Night with her performance… AND then to come out w/ THAT GARBAGE!!! The BAR was set Too High for her to come out experimenting with her sound and shit… Just My Opinion
Like they say, Another man’s silver is another man’s gold… One person’s Trash is another person’s Treasure
I HOPE comes back and reclaims her throne, I WISH her nothing but the BEST… Will The REAL L-Boogie PLease Stand-Up !!!!!

That damn Marley boy almost destroyed my beautiful sister with his drugs and infidel azz! Just like his dad…Ignant, 6th grade education! “I shot de Sheriff, but I did not shoot de Deputy”. Booyahhha! Shut-up fool!

I’m hope she is back, but she can never make up for all the loss time wasted in Jah. Damn near 10 years of silence!

Marley fans can save your breath, because I won’t be returning to this blog topic!

Ladies this is a reminder of what a triflin as man can do to you. Lauryn was at the top of her came when this no good ass baby daddy of hers destroyed her. She aint been right sincem, she had so much potential and talent and shes wasted it all because that mofo got the best of her. Where are her kids and why havent we ever seen them? Well it looks like shes tryin to shake that voodoo that he put on her.

she looks so fucking ugly in this pic!She can sing but she is so weird I am getting sick of her mood swings .

I dont think it was just the man in her life because a man will only do what you let him. I read the mag when she said the music industry had her trapped to the point where she felt like she couldn’t go out to the store without putting make-up on, I think the industry, new relationship, 4 new kids and money was a little too much for her to handle and not mention still trying to walk on the righteous path. I’m glad she is coming back with that music. The unplugged album was phenomonal, if you dont know the Bible then I dont think you would have got it. Even in miseducation she was quoting scripture.

#45 You got it right, she was tired of all the people pleasing and just wanted to be herself. I remeber her saying she was tired of the hundreds of people around her telling her she had to be this image they put together.

To me she is the only one young black women f@#! it, women in general can respect cause she anit trying to help them sell that blonde barbie always perfect image. We know she is real!!!!!

To the poster that called her a tar baby even on her worst day her face is naturally beautilful. Even in this picture she looks pretty. I guess she has to have Beyonce complexion, lots of make up and coochit cutter jeans for u huh?

She lookin a lil hairy in the forehead. Or is that sweat? HMM…

She’s one burger away.

I cosign with you Nic. We give men too much damn credit anyway. Given the way people reacted to her “change” its no wonder she got fed up in the first place. Hell, people are still saying they dont like the new Lauren. I understand if you dont like her. Thats your right. But its been years. Is it still new?
I watched the unplugged with a few friends and we all had different opinions on it. I loved it, but she needed to practice that guitar just a little more before she came out there and sang 45 songs to the same melody. I love you Lauren but DAYUM!!
Last but not least, shes too cute to walk around with her eyebrows connecting like that.

@flyqt2006, I thought I was the only one who noticed the tarbaby comparison but I just let it go. I couldnt find a way to express my rage without sounding crazy. Thank you.

Notta one person in R&B has as much talent as L. Boogs. No disrespect to many who rep quite well (i.e. A. Keys. Jill Scott, Beyonce, Erica Badu, or India Arie) but L set the trend that many followed. For anyone to question her talent is ridiculous. For anyone to say that she isn’t gorgeous…is assinine. She is so much more than just a pretty face, nice voice, and a nice body…her mind is overwhelming. Her wisdom is off the charts. Respect and recognize a real woman when you see her.

**Laughs**
You said that same comment in the Mariah Carey post.

My Comment #52 was directed @Caff

Lauryn Hill ain’t back, thats that damn Miss Hill the one that be tripping. Lauryn Hill that was in the Fugees and did “The Miseducation” she’s long gone.

#45 If 4 kids was to much for her, she shouldn’t have had that many, especially after walking in on her man fuggin her cousin and again one of her backup singers. She looks awful in that pic with those troll eyebrows and wild azz wig. I could care less if she come back or not, have no respect for a woman who have so little respect for herself. U have to luv urself first before u can luv anyone else and apparently she doesn’t luv herself, she still with Marley,lmao.

@ 51 Amen. Ghostpostaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

to me she’s always been like this. being really dramatic w/ her performances/singing etc. in the blk community mental illness,aids,alternate lifestyles,etc etc are met w/ hatred and misunderstanding. now if she gets help soon she may be able to make a huge come bak!! good luk laruyn ill b prayin fi yi

#55 I agree with you when you say you have to love yourself before you can love anyone else. I love Lauryn and her music, but her personal life is another story. I don’t totally blame Marley for her downfall because she put herself in that situation, she knew what kind of man he was from the jump, she just didn’t lover herself enough to step away. And as much as the Miseducation of Lauryn Hill inspired a lot of young girls and teens at the time, including myself, she wasn’t really practicing what she preached. As much as she quoted scriptures from the Bible, she still was having kids out of wedlock (and I think I read somewhere that he was already married when she was with him). I hope she truly has gotten her life together, not for us, but for her own sake.

IS SHE PREGNANT AGAIN?

“Now I’m a get the mozzarella like a Rockerfeller
Still be in the church of Lalibela
Singing hymns a cappella
Whether posed in Maribella in Couture
Or collectin’ residuals from off the Score
I’m makin’ sure
I’m with the 144
I’ve been here before this ain’t a battle this is war
Word to Boonie
I makes a lot like a Sunni
Get diplomatic immunity
in every ghetto community” -Lauren Hill

vs.

“I dont think you ready for this jelly cause my body too bootilicious”- Beyoncee

….lol just kidding, jus messin with the Beyoncee fanatics.

In like a breath of fresh air, Lauryn Hill returns!!!!
That’s my girl! I truly enjoy her music and her message. I look forward to her returning to the scene with new material.

Heck, I’ll even BUY her CD.

*Caff** You betta leave my girl alone!

I am so floored right now. Tar Baby huh? And then we wonder why YT so easily takes advantage of us. Lauryn’s look is different, so is Erica Badu’s, and Leila James, in her time, so was Dorothy Dandridge’s or Chaka Khan’s, hey what about Outkast or Akon? These are just a few of the people who went out on a limb to just be themselves, but we as black folks need to let go of this color complex we have. Believe me, when it comes down to it we’re all seen as n&&*^%s so we better start learning to love ourselves in all of our hues and looks, because nobody else will. That comment really almost made me ill…Angel.la please continue to post pictures of ALL of the artists you can!

And I love Ms. Hill’s sound and can’t wait to hear what she releases next! Welcome back Lauryn, we fall down, but show them how to get back up girl!

[caff clears his throat and steps to the podium:]

Why do singers go crazy? I mean damn, throughout history every great singer has either went crazy or popped on the scene crazy from the start and turned crazier. Whether it be through drugs or a chemical imbalance within their DNA, singers are 99.9% likely to act very looney after they have major success.

These artists who we all admire and need, whose music gets us through good and bad times, are indeed weak individuals. Yes, weak I say. Physically strong enough to perform for us on a stage, but mentally weak and unable to handle the pressure of being an entertainer.

@ghost - You seem to have intentionally forgotten some of Beyonce’s more relevant music such as
“Check up On It”
“I Need a Soldier”
“Baby Boy”
“Naughty Girl” and lest we forget
“Deja Vu”

…Sheesh!

(sarcasm, and i promise not to perpetuate the use of this child’s name in any post not related to her, but i couldn’t help it. i am aware the comparison between the two artists are apples and oranges, but it’ll be so good to have another female artist on the scene with relevance)

omg she looks like a crack head

@caff… I think it also have alot to do with the lifestyle THEY try to lead AFTER they become famous
It’s very taxing on your mental state taking in ALL the fakeness & adulation along w/ the excessive materialism and yet STILL try and maintain as much of yourself BEFORE you came into this fame/lifestyle

Instead of speculating on her state of mind…read up on it yourself.

http://webuser.fh-furtwan...ecial_interview_trace.htm

She is a truly beautiful person inside and out that seems to genuinely care about what she puts out there. A true artist indeed, why are we so shallow these days? Now i understand exactly what Dre(3000) & Ms. Hill speak of; Sheeps being led to the slaughter but yed to blind to see the blade.

A person who is mentally stable and mentally strong should have no problem maintaining their state of mind after becoming a financial and musical success.

From my perspective, these artists are weak. Relying on nose and vein candy to get them through the pressures of being an entertainer? Ha, if that’s pressure, I’d be Jordan in the 4th quarter when it comes to that shit.

..or in L.Boogie’s case, it seems to be Haagen-Dazs and hoagies, instead of heroin and cocaine.

-=\

^Devin the Dude impersonator(Caff), maybe you need to get your ass up off that toilet and wipe the shit up that’s driviling out of your mouth. She is nowhere near fat, especially after 4 kids. You speak on things you know nothing of which is basically the definition of ignorance. How the hell do you know how you would react to situations you’ve never been in?

All i got to say is ugly ugly ugly that bitch is ugly ass shit. she need to put a bag over that ugly face of her. it look like some just beat her ass.

Because caff is never wrong.
Google me. -=\

Somebody angry as hell cause she ain’t lookin so good.

Just take a slow,deep breath. Don’t worry, she gone get it together.

To #71. That shit was funny as hell.

love lauryn…love her style…love her hair…love her

dont care what nobody say about L boogie cant wait till she brang some new stuff out her cd still da shi*…

Gotta admit tho. She really lookin stank and tired.

Love her music hate this look…she look like a 70’s junkie…not cool Miss Hill.

I heard her song for the first time yesterday and it was CRACKEN!!! I loved it immediately-didn’t have to take 1 week and a review on concreetloop to grow on me. However she looks like fucken Martin when he ran off to the monastery to find himself and had the afro with all of the little twisties in his head. She looked so cute on sister act. L-boogie WHATHAPPENTTTTTT????

# 80

I’mma hit you up for that, lmao
With one braid on the side of his head, lmao

Does she really have 4 kids, I lost track after number two?

Yes she do have 4 kids, going on to have 2 mo after she caught this man bangin her cuz and backup singer. Him being jamaican, not trying to be funny folks cause I luv jamaica and some of its peeps, I know he didn’t wear a condom,lmao. Anyway, Lauryn needs to sit down and look and listen to Tyler in “Madea goes to Jail”, when he says folks need to luv themselves,etc………..

The last article I read about Lauryn stated she had two kids, Zion and ….another one. But that was when she cussed everyone out at the vatican. Trust me, if she has had two kids since then, we would have heard about it on BET, Concreteloop,…etc.

love me some lauryn she looks like hell though

Welcme back Lauryn. Hey, I’ve been hearing the new Methodman song where she’s featured on the radio a lot. I love it, it’s on fire.

#80 telitlikeitiz , LMAO!!!! She does look like Martin in that episode!!! They had a MArtin Marathon the other day. I had to tvo (I dont know how u spell it) the entire thing. Too funny!!

Ms.Hill needs 2 pluck them brows, she looks a mess!

i was at this show and even tho lauryn is certifiably crazy to me…she rocked the joint!! after the people turned off her mic-she shushed the whole place, made everyine be quiet and started singing accapella-no mic no band playing….she sounded wonderful!! but i dont know if she is really ‘back back’ but she did good for that one nite

Ok, I know I’m not the only one that noticed she done got fat-faced…

LMAO @ Alesa-Renee

“For those who believe no explanation is necessary, for those who don’t none will suffice…” -Unknown

Yes, she does have four kids. The 4th was born way back in like 2003. and the thing with Rohan getting caught with the makeup artist and backup singer? That was YEARS ago. Before the 3rd and 4th child. In faCT I think she was preg with the 2nd when she caught him with the makeup artist and cut her locks off.

http://youtube.com/watch?...ch=%22amateur%20nights%22

Daaaaaamn. She was young though.

it’s probably too late for a mainstream come back

know i luv lauren hiil 2 but in dis pic dis gurl look like ophra winfrey

Can’t wait until the album comes out. I love me some L.H.

Yay! I can’t wait. i want to hear her drop some rhymes

I miss the old Laurn. The new Laurn seems really confused to me. First: Locs to wigs? Second: Four kids? FOUR KIDS. I hope she is married. Because if not that is just flat out GHETTO! I don’t care how wealthy she is.

again people, celebs are human. she has problems in her personal life- so what; so do you. She is still growing. you can’t deny her musical talent. I appreciate her music and her realness. SOME OF YOU GUYS DON’T LIKE ANYONE. GET A LIFE
