“We have to make sure the music and the message and the words and all the element…” — Lauryn Hill

Let optimists rule the world.

The danger I faced was not accepted as reasonable grounds for deferring my tax payments, as authorities, who despite being told all of this, still chose to pursue action against me, as opposed to finding an alternative solution.

I think what people are attracted to about me, if anything, is my passion. People got exposed to my passion through music and song first.

I'm trying to open up my range and really sing more. With The Fugees initially, and even with 'Miseducation,' it was very hip-hop - always a singing over beats. I don't think people have really heard me sing out. So if I do record again, perhaps it will have an expanded context. Where people can hear a bit more.
