Lauryn Hill Reveals Second Album Will Be Done ‘Soon’

To be fair her ship hasn't sailed yet because she's late getting on that as well.

How MUCH of that music is timeless? I said the album was good, but it was GREAT in the 90's. For an album that is held in such high regard there are quite a few skippers (songs you don't even bother listening to) on that album.

I am interested in what you consider a timeless album? For me you can have SONGS that are timeless, but an entire album??? That is difficult.
I bought it the week that it came out. I'm with you. There are songs on there that I have no problem listening to but I haven't thought about playing that album from beginning to end in a really long time. Albums that weren't as acclaimed or successful like All That I Am by Joe and JE Heartbreak by Jagged Edge aged better to me.
 
Miseducation of Lauryn Hill came out in summer of 1998......goddamn, I was in my second year of college. She was on her way to being a music icon....instead she became a punchline. Still have my original CD, but the only people who will care for this are the dummies who pay for a concert ticket expecting her to show up on time.
 
No it isn't.

Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, Me Against the World, The Chronic, Life After Death, It's Dark and Hell is Hot, Only Built for Cuban Linx, Jodeci Diary of a Mad Band, What's Going On, etc.

I can go on but you get the point.
I am reminded of the Chris Rock bit that he talks about the music that is good to you is about when you started having sex (paraphrasing of course) The majority of these albums all came out within 10 years each other (outside of the Marvin Gaye album) if this is top of your head. At this point we are conversing over opinion so neither one of us will be right in the others eyes, which is cool as I was genuinely curious as to what a timeless album was to you...also Diary of a Mad Band?!?!?! THAT STYLE OF SINGING LET ALONE THAT ALBUM DOESN'T AGE WELL!!!!
 


I think it’s industry known that she like to be referred to as “Ms. Hill”. It’s a bit much but it ain’t the worse. The Nas feature she did on KD2 has her as Ms. Lauryn Hill.

She sees herself as a Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Adele level artist. She could’ve been if she put out more music
