Lauryn Hill at Soulful Saturday 2006 - Iron, Lion, Zion

[shumugga]

I've got this on my iPod and love it. Came for Iron Lion Zion, met Zimbabwe in the process. What's that second song though. "All I wanted to do was to wash my dreads...etc?"

[LostHero245]

2:45 Yes!

"They wanna stop me...but imma be Iron like a lion in Zion". Every song is an experience when you hear Lauryn cover it.

[tichie33]

fucking awesome!

[LyfeSeeker]

Forget about how it sounds its all about the message.

[Scallall]

what was she thinking??

[JK03985]

sounds like shit. Bobs original was the best.  so not be redone

[onfzd]

I like this version. 5 stars.

I miss the Fugees

[cs7484]

[ikariss77]

love that saxophone

[tcphilosopher]

I love her energy on this performance.

[mitchrw]

i love her rendition of bob's tracks!

[crzybastad]

Why's everyone hating on Lauryn? So what if she sang Bob Marley differently than the original. She's an ARTIST. She's entitled to sing Bob Marley however she wants, to put her own spin on some classics. If she sang it just like the original, than it would just be fuckin boring. And her rendition was straight fire imo. So what if her phrasing was a little off or whatever. She put so much soul and emotion into these songs that it was a moving experience to watch her.

[lesbmistique]

i know too many ignorant people on the net dont get the messege the is trying ta convey it s a shame though cause she put a good trist to them songs man i think she a genius

[billyyates]

had to stop this after 5 seconds. MURDERED the song big style and she shouldnt be singin it anyway the racist freak.

straight shite

[hym456]

hows she racists... is it about that kids starving incident or is it some other stuff wendy williams cooked up...

[nyah8]

I love lauryn but she nah phrase di song right

[portobellogal]

Poor Lauryn,I hear what you are sayin about those bros want to be the stars and have tried to destroy you with their jealousy.I heard through the grapevine that the marleys are fighting over money etc.all the time and that they have tried to destroy you Bob must be turning in his grave.You people just listen to the lyrics she is singing to hear what is going on..I hope for her sake she makes it out alive...

[delroym44]

What? Had to comment on this one because the lyrics she's singing are Marley's lyrics not her own

[flyboi09]

yeaa..shes singing bob marley...i think she knows that lol

[pitougal]

this is totally whack!!!

[LovePeaceHarmony6]

Illslogic LOLL man what drugs are you on?? Whatever they are, you need some uppers, those downers are doin you no good. What are you doing watching a vid you don't like bro, why don't you go look up something you understand and can relate to, take some deep breaths - breathe out the negativity, breathe in the positivity...haha I can't believe how obsessed you are with something you don't even like!

[illslogic]

All ya'll on here are trying to ignore the fact that this performance is wild, all over the place and just plain shitty. She's rushing through the lyrics, you can hardly understand what she's saying & why is she singing this shit anyway. SING THE FUCKIN DOO WOP. If I want to hear this shit I'll put on Bob's cd. She's having a nervous break down like coo coo ass mariah.

[illslogic]

You're not a fuckin MALCOLM X or Angela Davis. Cut this shit out, get your fuckin voice back up 2 par cus it's sounds cracked lately and PUT ON SOME NICE CLOTHES and take that dumb ass wig off baby DAMN. Keep this bullshit up Lauryn and your IRON LION ass will get what you're wishing for and the only people that'll be at your show is you and your band and about 10 other people that are as nutty as your ass is. Then we'll see how Iron your ass is.

[illslogic]

AND WHO THE FUCK CAME TO HEAR HER SING A BAD VERSION OF LION IN ZION? That's not even one of my best Bob Marley songs. And what's with the fuckin Bob Marley obsession anyway? That's her fuckin problem, MARLEYS. Why not Sam Cooke? Marvin Gaye? Sade? Anita Baker? Prince? I mean Bob was the nigga but he wasn't the only nigga. Lauryn stop trying to be a fuckin ambassador for the people, YOU ARE A FUCKIN SINGER, SING GAT DAMN IT.

[pandadub]

I recently saw Lauryn in Oakland and people walked out on her, demanding their money back....all I have to say is that she is definitely weeding out the true fans from the rest..This video proves how powerful her voice still is and the intimate vibe she is going for. She comes up with the best melodies...ever...

[illslogic]

So wendy williams was right about that Oakland show huh? I don't know what you mean by weeding out the TRUE FANS. What does that mean, TRUE FANS. So you're a true fan if you allow someone to put on a shitty show when you've paid your hard earned money?

[illslogic]

I work very hard for my money and if I come see your ass in concert you'd better be at your fuckin best or else i'm gonna pissed off because I wasted money and I still gotta take my ass to work in the morning. So if she fucked up then they should've walked out. Lauryn has that weird whitney Houston thing goin on. I don't think Lauryn is stable these days. I'm worried about her.

[illslogic]

I bet if I had a conversation with Lauryn's mother I'd be able to tell instantly that Lauryn is goin through some unnecessary self righteous bullshit triggered by that Jamaican piece of shit husband of hers. She's nothin but a whitney houston without the crack. A female broken down over a nigga just like any chicken head around the corner who can't handle good dick. I'm disappointed in Lauyrn to say the least.

[GoBlue808]

She's got a good voice but she didn't really sing the words.

[jaylib]

shes like a lion from zion!

[therealbloodwolf]

Classic

[miguelmk021]

You all know lauryn... she knows "all the tricks from Bricks to Kingston" . Best singer alive in present days

[kauaimusic]

Wow! I would have loved to been at this! Did you catch her smile there midway through... love to see her smile. Powerful music and message crammed into what looks like a small club and a small camcorder that really doesn't do her justice.

Like having to squint to see something a little blurred, I did some ear acrobatics and got the message. I love to she Lauryn with so much energy! This is her Truth! And it looks like she had a great time.

[cnoordma]

every man's got a right to decide his own destiny and in his judgement there is no partiality so arm in arms with arms we'll fight this little struggle but that's the only way to overcome our little trouble

lauryn is right she is right she is so right. this girl is on point

[indecent07]

we dont here much of her here in australia...and there are many guys equal-only equal- her

[greatmb]

now if you stared reading this dont stop its really scarey!ok send this to five other videos in 143 minutes.When you are done press F6 and your crushes name will apear on the screen in big letters this is weird because it does work.If you break this chance you wont have a crush in the next five years

[indecent07]

best female artist in the world

[bintalarab]

she actually looks like Bob Marley in this video, lol.

[TheChinex]

omg she reminds me of my sister... she so damn cool for a girl!

[hym456]

she does Bob Marley justice. Wikked

[nittyranks]

Not really her phrasing is off.

[MELLOWLL6]

w/e

[hym456]

huh?

[malone22]

i think she going to be a revolutionary women...and i'm so proud of her cause she's a strong women, they says she's racist and don't love white communauty, but they LIES... cause she just say what she feel in a world dominate by the white people and most in africa... she say the truth about what blacks communauty feel in those days...i'm not crazy, i'm just a black women,who's super-smart and who can't be bribed,i'm not a machine! and i give my people the truth... and i think she's right

[WheresMyPrize]

watch the interview mtv did with lauryn hill not too long ago, she refutes and denies all the racial comments. in fact she states that it hurt her that someone thought that. i just saw her two weeks ago in osaka, japan... she was on point. doesn't matter what kind of voice she is in, she is a straight up performer... and that is why she captivates so many to this day. to see 800 japanese people shouting her lyrics at her... that is music and that is love. take it easy!

[MELLOWLL6]

i co.sign that

[kbuggy12]

Lauryn still got it....you better go girl
