this song needs to be played on the radios NOWADAYS. the message is even more relevant! too many young girls taking half their clothes off for all the wrong reasons.
Yesss the dude below me is right black people are you really listening ??? Ppl like lauryn, bob marley, and micheal Jackson never just made music to make music it is a permanent way to leave the messages of their songs with us. I mean how old is this song and I'm still listening to it. the messages through what they leave us is to enable CHANGE!!! Black people let's love and unite not fight Down each other onto of being fought by society.......
I wish all of my black people would really listen to the message (lyrics) hidden within the beats of this song. It's really deep and strikes a nerve as well as the pulse of our situation here in America. As black men and black women we need to care for and value each other from a love prospective. we're really all we've got. Get it together. Our next generation needs our love and leadership to survive.
Why do people throw their age around like it means something? "I'm 12 years old and I love this song!" Music speaks to your soul; it has nothing to do with age.
@Klababy19 Younger people who listen to old school music have a certain pride about them : Lauryn Hill isn't on the charts , isn't being constantly promoted on music websites, TV shows and magazines so it shows that they have had to do a little homework, a little digging, a little soul-searching to find what REALLY stirs them in the art world.
yo yall please check this group called Good Vocation...i put it on videos like this because we are being ourselves...no trap, no sex songs, none of that mainstream stuff....God, love, all that man check these dudes out...pure dopeness man please yall GOOD VOCATION IS NEXT COMING OUTTA CHICAGO
im thirty, i have allways been rock, acdc,jamiriouquia,nirvana, chillis.....this song is just awsome,.Thas music, it can cut through everything,every red tape, if you like a song it dont matter who sings it, i suppose thats wht soul is..? great song.
I still don't understand why old ass Hip Hop fans glorify Lil Kim, a hoe with ghostwriters, when Lauryn was spitting light years ahead of her. Lauryn is a hip hop legend, no doubt
@MrGrassys Um... I really like Kid'N'Play.. pretty much anything by them. UGK, Run DMC, Aaliyah, uh yea lol basically anything like those artists. there is a website that you can go on called TasteKid and you can type in the name of an artist and it will give you all these suggestions you may like. (: Hope I helped.
I'm what you would call a metalhead/hard rock fan and as much as I love AC/DC, Metallica, Pantera, Iron Maiden etc I also love this song and I remember when it was released when I was in 10th grade. Too bad that rap is nowhere as good as this nowadays, otherwise I would listen to it more.
@xerxethegreat , I have to say i dont agree with you on that one...she just left hollywood and didnt want to sell out so 'they' made her look crazy...the only way she was allowed to perform for a while was made to look crazy...her mind is powerful,and so is ours..just have to free it and we all gotta find a peace of mind @ some point...we're not crazy, the environment around us is...dubyadubyadubyadotvigilantcitizendotcom...
she is such an amazing artist! her singing is incredible! her verses are out of this world...i love how she spits..her bar structure and how when she rhymes..it paints a vivid picture..lauryn hill is so gifted! i just wish it was more artists like her still around
Awesom singer, no doubt about that, but dont forget she lost a lot of fans cos she said she didnt like white people listenin to her music. That screwd it for her. Cheers lauryn, yeah thanks a lot. So maybe not more artists like her please, more music and vocals like hers, yes.
@sjgapf Actually she never did say anything anti-white (I am white by the way, so this isn't bias) it was a caller to the Howard Stern show who said she did in an MTV interview. She denied it, MTV denied it and the tape of the 'interview' has never ever been seen or heard of outside of this slanderous incident. Hopefully that put the rumour to bed for you guys.
