Description: The first solo album by the Fugees' most distinctive voice quickly wipes away the pretensions of so many current hip-hoppers' discs. It does so by both engaging their widescreen ethos--"To Zion," with its martial drums and gospel choir, is as epic a production as has been heard in 1998's pop music--and speaking the plain truth. Reminiscent in its scope of nothing so much as Aretha's early-'70s Spirit in the Dark and Young, Gifted and Black, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill also easily earns its late-'90s place next to Erykah Badu's Baduizm. Even more personal, if hardly any more political, than cohort Wyclef Je ... (more)

Women Who Rock: The 50 Greatest Albums of All Time (50 music items)

"The former Fugee puts her heart, mind and soul into telling you everything she knows about love and life, and unites hip-hop, R&B and reggae under a single groove. Essential moment: "Doo Wop (That Thing)," where her warmth and strength are not a combo but one quality."

"Chilled but sassy hip-hop schoolin’ Following the Fugees’ smooth alchemy (turning classic tracks into modern gold), Hill’s solo debut seemed even more effortlessly assured. Laying gravelly vocals over superslick grooves, this Grammy-sweeping album showed what Hill really learned. Standout tracks: “Doo Wop (That Thing),” “Ex-Factor”"

The 150 Greatest Albums Made By Women (150 music items)

"The Fugees struck gold in the late 1990s with albums like The Score, a feat that also made their resident wordsmith, Lauryn Hill, a household name. But when Hill went out on her own two years later and dropped her debut, the neo-soul masterpiece The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, she schooled everyone all over again in new and necessary ways. In it, Hill refuses to shy away from topics often left unspoken, injecting classroom love lesson interludes and hard-hitting lyrics about how money changes p"

"The finest recent soul album, the Fugee’s solo debut stands up well next to Aretha, never mind Erykah or India. Mixing rapping, powerful singing and rich, complex backing, it’s tough to follow, as Hill is currently proving. Standout track: “Ex-Factor”"
