The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill (Pt. 1)

The Big Mates discuss neo-soul, the thickness of sound, album
narrative, and The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill by
Lauryn Hill.

Adam, Steve, and Lucas continue their deep dive into the career
and discography of Lauryn Hill by exploring her first and only
solo studio album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. They
talk about the writing and recording process, the context
surrounding the songs, and offer up analysis, opinions, and
thoughts from three differing perspectives on music, from being
deeply into analysis and music, to not caring for art or
critique, and everything in between.

They touch on the theme of the album, from love to religion and
self-actualisation and talk about the various genres Lauryn Hill
pulled together and took inspiration from. They also spend some
time discussing the Compact Disc as a format for music.

What will we make of the record? Is it a concept album? Is Lauryn
Hill a good singer? Find out on this episode of What Is
Music?

Our next episode is out on Monday September 11th and will
continue the deep-dive into The Miseducation of Lauryn
Hill.
