I was once a Lauryn supporter until I saw her live in Atlanta at the Vibe fest last year. This was a first hand not a rumor. Her behavior was sick. I understand we all go through things. She was rude to the crowd and the band. She lost me as a fan for life. Whatever she is going thru she needs to sit down and get help. It will sad to see such a talent lost.


LOL you wouldn't have dug Nina Simone live either coz the bitch was nas-taaaaay,,,god rest her soul lol

But thats the thing about complex artists, they get away with being rude and nasty I guess shrug

FUNNY you say that Nina got up during the performance and made a VERY RACIST COMMENT. Being one of the few black people in the crowd, it was STRANGE.

Nina is a MILLION trip lol you gotta love her tho, she's blunt!!!!!

A couple were talking during her per4mance(a year b4 she died), cut the per4mance OFF and said to them "I spit on both of you motherfuckers" and continued the per4mance like nothing happend.

These 2 kept their mouth shut after that lol they were the LAST people to get out.

She gets deranged when folks talk during her per4mance or don't listen,,,,throwing nasty tantrums and even cutting off the WHOLE per4mance.

Lauryn's demise can be credited to her husband/baby daddy. Anytime somebody trips out calling a man her "husband" whenever 1. Ya'll ain't no where near being married and 2. He doesn't even wanna be your man in public...we got some problems and that will fuck with a woman's head (and in L's case a good sweet woman). It's a shame.



i had no idea things were so whack btween them. does anyone have the entire article? i have only read bits of it. in those she sounds very defensive, self-righteous and bitter. she has talent but was never "the moon and stars". i hope she rallys and gets it together.

also, isn't that what you get for messin around with a child of bob marley? i mean isn't rohan one of bob's bastards? didn't bob have 5 or 6 children with as many differnt woman, in addition to the 4 he had with rita?
what was she thinking?

I could care less if she's not a nice person or whatever - hell, there a tons of brilliant people who just are complete bastards in personal life.

The problem I have with Lauryn is that she hasn't released anything in ages. "Miseducation" was 1998, wasn't it? In other words: her brain fart got in the way of her work.

The other stuff is her problem and none of my business.

Just my twocents...

Bob Marley had 11 children before he died, including the ones with Rita. Considering he was only 36 when he died, can you imagine how he would have had if he had lived..30 and counting. lol

Anyway back to Lauryn, don't you think having 4 kids within 5 years is enough to make a woman go crazy, what's to say she is not suffering from continual post-natal depression and hence her actions...

Well, on further review, Miseducation was an outstanding album, but I don't think she would have "saved" either R&B OR hip-hop. One of the unfortunate things about her success was that encouraged R&B's co-opting of hip-hop.

Lest we forget, Lauryn was a good singer who made her way to fame as an MC. She found a way to fuse the best of both worlds, made an outstanding album, and when it hit, she came off as the antithesis of "Lauryn Hill": A self-conscious, strident, insecure person who bitterly complained about the very success she herself went after.

I feel for her and regret her troubles. But man.

Yeah, we all know she's fucked up, but that's her business. I would rather remember the fact that she was the last mainstream female artist that I actually respected. All I see now are shallow career strategists like Beyonce or fakes like Alicia Keys. Who knows what the roots of Lauryn's problems are? Without knowing I don't think we have the right to judge. Lauryn did something great once upon a time and that's enough for me.


"came off as" -- not a judgment, plus praise for her artistic work

equals

an observation, not a judgment.

No, I don't confused

What the hell does being a mother of 4 kids have to do with sanity?

My elder sister have 5 kids and she's in the same age as Lauryn. She's not suffering from "continual post-natal depression" and she works in the Emergency room god dammit.

I hate it when motherfuckers whistle dumb bullshit outta their asses just for the sake of hearing themselves talk disbelief

That was an insightful interview. She is obviously is a diva, she doesn't trust people and she's been hurt, however, I find her sincere and honest. From the beginning I always knew Lauryn was a different kind of artist; her goal was never to be some big, big commercial celebrity i,e Janet or Beyonce.

After reading that article I really don't think she is that derange, she just wants to be true to herself and God, and not "pretend" like so many artists do..

thanks. i stand by my original comments- she appears to be struggling with things she herself can't articulate. and is completely up her own ass. i have to confess i always thought she was talneted but very over hyped. it's pity, really. she sounds like she's still in a very dark and confused place.
