Lauryn Hill's Music and Its Message


As we learned this semester, media is a powerful force that influences society and, in turn, humanity as a whole. Throughout its evolution, media has taken on various forms. One type, which I concentrate on for my final project, is the recorded music of an artist. My essay analyzes Lauryn Hill's career as a recording artist and explores the meanings behind the lyrics in her songs. From her debut as a solo artist, 1998's "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" to 2002's live recording, "MTV Unplugged No. 2," Hill uses her music as a platform to spread her messages. With the fundamental message reminding us that we are who we are and that we should not conform to any socially constructed "standards."
