  • this is a very important song

  • I would go crazy

    If 2pac and Lauryn hill made a song together...

  • @PdubzCrew that would have been the song that defined hip-hop

  • Lion palm

  • Nice equation!!!! 

  • In the music video for this single New York is one huge turntable. Sick ass idea, like if Allah wants to scratch he uses the whole wold! PEACE GODS AND EARTHS!

  • A better time, positive message was still in mainstream music....nothing changed, they just showed their true colors. The gloves are off now, the music industry is a dark sick place.

  • Lauryn Hill, Beautiful woman with Beautiful Voice, it's all a man needs.................

  • Who knew that Lauryn Hill participated.....1:20 - 1:40....

  • I consider Nikki Minaj as an entertainter. I consider Lauryn as a poet and can imagine her with her guitar and singing to people and educating them on the struggles and journeys in life

  • Best female mc ever-PERIOD,plus not many men can match her caliber ,and what a soulfull voice!BIG UP LAURYN TO DA HILL!

  • great song!!

  • classic !!

    

  • John Legend on the track for those that didn't know as a pianist

  • love this ish.

  • Looking forward to your next Phoenix rising...the next blossoming in Spring....We do need your inspiration and voice of loving creation and hope.....

  • what sets Lauryn apart is her engineering skills

  • Comment removed

  • lol nicki minaj and lauryn are impossible to compare.. their styles are both so different.. we can have more than one famous female rapper so everyone just chill and enjoy the music

  • vote up if you want another artist to come out like lauryn hill

  • @Jazzedboltz no and as a matter of a fact i vote this so far down because you speak as if lauryn is really gone we don't need another lauryn clones never compare to the original it will only end in disappointment

  • LAURYN HILL with her voice floating out onto the album, and JOHN LEGEND on piano. nice. much respect.

  • She is Real..there are very few people out there...n her music i love.. no sex no drugs,, just real

  • Lauryn we need you now more than ever..

  • I love her snares and kicks selections!

  • -Come backk nn showw niki miaj wat singing is a real true artist!!!! (Lauryn Hill) :)

  • she needs to make a comeback

  • Now this is real hip hop. Not the crap that comes on the radio nowadays. What happened to this kind of positive music?

  • @drew1852 hip hop went commercial. almost every genre goes commercial at some point

  • @DoomSquadRecords i feel you. i was just being sarcastic

  • @DoomSquadRecords nah. nicki rhymes son with son

  • I miss her, too!

  • Still rocking this!!!

  • vote up if ur still listening to this in 2011

  • @dlj4818 I've never stopped.

  • @dlj4818 This was hen there was some sort of quality and quantity to music. Sadly this generation missed out on great musically inclined artists. Hope all is well with her. She actually made me feel proud to be black not because she was black or because she made black music. But because her music was so versatile and reached different cultures without being stereotypical.

  • @shithappens1818 she is anti white not black. there is a difference. mentioning Zion and shit. like every white man is an invader. Yawn. some black people should still be slaves cos they suck at education.

  • @BilboBaghead81 To say that some black people should still be slaves only reveals your own lack of education. God created all men equal; Satan the Devil is the unseen evil spirit that entice men to enslave and oppress men and women for evil and selfish gain. No, not every white man is an evil invader, but the last sentence in your post is just as stupid as (all white men being evil). Lets see how long it takesd for you to grasp and accept that fact, and your ability to LEARN will reveal itself.

  • @BilboBaghead81 You are ignorant. Please believe me, you are indeed lacking in education yourself.

  • @dlj4818 na mate 2003

  • @dlj4818 heck yea

  • @dlj4818 sorry its 2012, BITCH!!!

  • @zxLoneWolf haha

  • @zxLoneWolf Mature Much?

  • @1NeoSoulChild Take a joke much?

  • @dlj4818 & 2012 baby :)

  • @dlj4818 2012

  • i miss this kind of chill 90's hip hop where you can just chill in the back yard in the summer and drink a beer

  • @MisterT468 this may sound funny to u,but i can still have a beer in the backyard no matter what music is on

  • 2 people.....something something! i love u lauryn! x

  • ela faz uma simples batida ser a nona sinfonia de Betowen

  • priceless artist and album.

  • This People Is

    Music...

  • the two people who disliked this track are not EDUCATED...this whole album is GOLD

  • song its fucking awesome!!!!!!

  • Love this song

  • I wrote these words for everyone

    Who struggles in their youth

    Who won't accept deception

    Instead of what is truth

    It seems we lose the game,

    Before we even start to play

    Who made these rules?

    Shes as real as can be....

  • thumbs up for down to earth !! :-D great film.. good times..

  • @jaslam88

    ......wrong genre of media dude-_-..

  • @nickolozone

    This song was in the movie Down To Earth. That's what he was referring to. =).

  • @houseofgaunt

    ohhhhhh....lol...guhd lookin gaunt

  • this song speaks the truth EVERYTHING IS EVERYTHING I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • she is awesom

    ess 

  • she is awesoness

  • AFTER WINTER MUSSSTTT COME SPRING

  • after winter must come spring

  • I remember when this album came out, and this video was making the rounds, really saw her as an artinst that would stand the test of itme. Not sure what happened to her (heard that she went through some things though), but it's rather depressing that this was the only album she put out there. i'm sure that she and Mary J Blige would be big competitorsand best friends right now.

  • @jarbon5 she didnt want to succumb to the b.s. music they have out now she wanted to do her own thing and her own music and the music industry doesnt take too kind to that

  • @sorasjahta I can appreciate her for that, not wanting to get caught up in the b.s. of the music industry. Well, was hoping that she came out with more albums, cuz her first one was incredible. But, I've heard that she's doing live shows right now, so we might just get another album out of her [got my fingers crossed, and am wishing on all the stars in the sky]:)

  • @jarbon5 I think the shows are as far as she's gonna go even though I WOULD LOVE ANOTHER ALBUM OR TWO out of her I jus dont think its gonna happen.

  • @jarbon5 we would all love that she has touched all of us at one point in time or another

  • Yes, she most certainly has:)

  • Nowadays, it seems as though artists are looking to sell records than to tey to educate today's youth. Its sad because this generation needs all the help they can get.

  • SHE'S LYRICAL... "DEVELOP A NEGATIVE INTO A POSITIVE PICTURE."

  • n if they do come back.

    their comin back worse than minaj / their not gonna come in / and change the game

    run by white man. LOL

  • n if they do come back.

    their comin back worse than minaj LOL real shit.

  • u ppl ar whack.

    laurins not cominback. no1 like this is comin back .

    there out of this 'game' for a reason . LOL

  • DAYUM SHE CAN SING!

  • JAY JAY CHECK MY VISION

  • nicki isnt trying to be lauryn hill in the slightest, shes doing her own thing so why is everyone so intent on comparing them? nicki isnt comparable to lauryn... ill be honest i like them both. lauryn clearly has more talent vocally and lyrically, but nickis still entertaining. shes more about putting on a show than the lyrics. its the same thing as people trying to compare justin bieber to eminem.  they dont have much to do with eachother besides being in the industry.

  • @vforsterr You know what your talking about . Convince the rest of the uninformed

  • @vforsterr Funny you say this becuase Nicki said herself Pink Friday will justify all the (none sense) Lauryn Hill comparisons when Irv Gotti said "Nicki Minaj is as talented as Lauryn HIll."

  • @man012able what do you mean?

  • @vforsterr When people compared Nicki to Lauryn Hill, Nicki said her album will justify the comparisons. That's when I lost all my respect for Nicki Minaj. So when you see ppl talking about Nicki on Lauryn videos, it's because she never denied the comparions, she actually agreed with them. She should have humbled herself down and told the truth. We all know she will never be as lyrical as Lauryn.

  • @man012able agreed. she never will be, i never heard that she agreed with the comparisons before though thats really interesting, and pathetic. i mean shes entertaining dont get me wrong but shell never have lauryns talent.

  • @man012able tru

  • @vforsterr Nikki's flow is tight no doubt

  • What's wrong with me coming here trying to have some cocoa?!

  • Her words are profuse, real, intelligent, insightful... her mind is a masterpiece.

  • Lauryn Hill ~ Truth Speaker, Sister to All, Mother of many, light bringer,

    warrior, going in by the narrow gate. Nicki minaj ~ NWO ~ ALL ILLUMINATI ~ NO COMPARISONS> A FAKE AND A COUNTERFEIT/

  • ....the more you try to look outside your own subjective reality you observe that in universal consciousness there is no ego or opinion there just is. Everything is everything and all is one. Hate, fear and anger are all just part of subjective reality, observing universal consciousness through other peoples viewpoints is to truly experience the truest nature within yourself. And in that state, everything is alright.

  • @yozeroz I resonate with this, thank you for stating this.....truth.....the sweetest sound to my ears we are all one...

  • EVERY FUCKING LAURYN HILL VIDEO I SEE COMMENTS ABOUT NICKI MINAJ, HIGHEST RATED COMMENTS ABOUT NICKI MINAJ, SHUT UP, SHES IRRELEVANT TO THESE SONGS, SO BE QUIET, NOBODY THINKS YOU'RE COOL LIKE "OH LOOK HOW ORIGINAL THAT PERSON IS" YOU'RE DUMB, THANKS. LAURYN HILL IS LAURYN HILL. THE OTHER SIMILARITIES NICKI AND LAURYN HAVE IS THEY ARE HIP HOP ARTISTS. SO SHUT UP.

  • @reverendrichard

    lol took the words right outta my mouth

  • This is real hip hop!

  • @drakeltheryuujin I'm pretty sure she'll be performing at Rock the Bells.

  • Wow this song is so deep, thank you lauren for these lyrics, you gave us the truth before we knew it!

  • @Stargazed42 Wow. Profound truth in your statement man. Lol. Forreal.

  • She'll be performing in Montreal Jan. 23rd. Damn can we get a show in NYC or something?

  • Kudos 2 miis Lauryn her music will live 4eva thank u for giving us good music n the past that u knew wuldv'e survived mn lived on in the near n far FUTURE.....

  • Much love to lauryn hill and the good music she brought us. Im glad that i could get through some of my problems with her. i remember this came out when i was 6.

  • OMG LAURYN HILL U HAVE HELPED ME THROUGH SO MUCH

  • great song, thanks a lot for posting this!!

  • One of the most powerful lyrics. Listen closely to the words. Girl knew what she was trying to tell us

  • @aka4god yessssss!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I finally know what hip hop is meant to be, thanks to lauryn. This stuff today is just rubbish!

  • this was real hip hop, miss you lauryn!

  • from lauryn hill to nicki minaj?

    what happened?

  • @hsfmi COME BACK LAURYN HILL and the female hip hop voice!

  • @PimpMyParadigm Lauren is touring this winter...I'm going to the Fri/Jan-14

    Atlanta, GA

    Centerstage venue....w/ a live band too...I'm there.

  • @bartolo333 how much tickets??

  • @PimpMyParadigm shes touring as we speak, and i get to see her in a really small venue

  • @youthXattack yea shes in detroit in june my friend told me ...i love floetry too too bad they broke up ooh and guys check out the group Cubic Zirconia

  • @hsfmi you f*cking jew

    why did you post the same comment in all these lauryn hill songs?

    you stiring up hate with that troll of a comment

    eat shit n die faggot

  • @Arkimedes999 why would you reprimand someone for 'hating' when your first sentence was "you f*cking jew"??? whether you are right or wrong you are a hypocrite and no better than the person you're abusing.

  • Comment removed

  • @Vampdup u take things too literal

    take the stick out ur butt

  • @Arkimedes999 Nice try, Nicki Minaj.

  • @Arkimedes999 i think u just defeated ur self by being racist. if u want some one to see ur point calling them racist names will most likely offend them get them angry and make u come across as ignorant and racist and they will not listen u do urself a disservice talking to people like that. lets all try and get along. peace. :p

  • @hsfmi smh , just thought about that a lil deeper. It's DONE , its over smh :/ !

  • @hsfmi for one it didnt go from lauryn hill to minaj,it went from lil kim to minaj,get that right loc

  • @hsfmi Nah for those with a brain it'll be Lauryn Hill til' the end :)

  • @hsfmi

    we got Alicia Keys, it's not so bad

  • @hsfmi Nicki looks up to Lauryn. She always has. That's why she said in Still I Rise "DefJam said I'm not Lauryn Hill. You can't rap & sinq on the same CD." & yu see on Pink Friday she proved them wronq. & notice she didn't have as many sexual lyricsas everyone thouqht. sonqs like Here I Am, Dear Old Nicki, Fly & Moment 4 Life. Catch Me & Save Me.

  • @hsfmi

    Hill is a lot like Kurt Cobain in a way. She only did what she thought was right, very rarely giving into corruption and absolutely despised the music industry, and like Cobain, she was surrounded by people in the exact opposite mentality. People like Minaj have been big for a long time. The hairbands were big during Nirvana's time, and the boy bands and Britney were big when Hill was. So nothing happened, the corporate bullshit only changed its face a bit, but it was always there.

  • @hsfmi Lol, what? there's only one artist in the world?

  • @hsfmi Hahaha, U said it!!

  • @hsfmi DO NOT compare the two pleaseeeee; Lauryn & Nicki ppsshhh perleasee :D

  • @hsfmi wow 251 likes lmao

  • @hsfmi time, most things change over time. the thing is, all you fucks moaning about how shit has changed need to be quiet, ur acting like they brought nicki minaj and rick ross n them out and wiped out all the 2pac music n lauryn hill or they came to ur house and told you you can only listen to certain music. LAURYN HILLs music is still here, just shut the fuck up and listen to it.

  • @hsfmi

    lauryn lost her mind, the industry drove her crazy, such a talented human being 4real

  • @hsfmi time changed!! who was there before Lauryn? and before then? whose gonna be there after NIcki?

  • @hsfmi Check out K'La she's dope and the closest to Lauryn in that new generation 

  • that`s great
