Idunno. Maybe she reached a ceiling, and they wanted her to do more shyt to get to an even higher level and she refused, so they brought all the reciepts and hit her with the neg- press as a result.

Like if Kendrick told interscope to go fukk themselves and next thing you know random media start putting out "kendrick is crazy" pieces and it randomly comes out from some "industry insider" that Kendrick didn't write TPAB

That wack ass, fraud ass, animal skin tampon rocking, coconut skin granny drawz wearing, bra burning c00nanista ass, neo soul thottiana thinking she was so big for her britches that she wouldn't need the GOAT stimulus package provided by the GOAT Hov

Dumb ass organic thot figured she could continue sucking and fukking her way to the top by trading top for ghostwritten verses instead of following the blueprint laid out by every successful rapper ever and bowing to the glory and embracing the GOATness of the GOAT Hov

Bad examples, ice was a one hit wonder, I can show you sold out arenas 17 years straight for Beyoncé. Miseducation had some classic songs but that album is severely overrated. and the only reason why lauryn hill is held to a higher regard is because of the Afro centric rasta thing she got goin on, when in reality she's just a contradicting drug addict who does nothing but show up late to all her shows while Beyoncé keeps raising the standards.

The album is held in high regard because it actually holds up. Nothing more nothing less. There's nothing overrated about it. It's crazy to praise Beyoncé, who holds the said "overrated" album in high regard and the said artist in high regard for reasons that have nothing to do with the "Afrocentric rasta thing she got goin on". What standards are Beyoncé raising when people are comparing Beyoncé's 2016 album to an "overrated" album with classic songs that came out in 1998?

And it's mind blowing that people would actually concede to an album having classics SONGS, not song, but songs and still call it overrated. I've seen albums bigged up on here that don't even have classic songs on them.

She didn't write or produce miseducation

Made no money from it

Miseducation is overrated anyhow


She co-wrote and co-produced every song on the album and gave credit to the people who assisted her. Let posters on The Coli be your source of information. Here's the real story:

The album credits say the album is "produced, written and arranged" by Hill, and she is also listed as executive producer on all the tracks. The New Ark members--Vada Nobles, Rasheem "Kilo" Pugh and twin brothers Johari and Tejumold Newton--are acknowledged several times for "additional production," "additional musical contribution" and "additional lyrical contribution" on some songs.

They claim, however, to be the primary songwriters on two tracks, "Nothing Really Matters" and "Everything Is Everything," and major contributors on six others. Full or partial production credit is also due to the team on five tracks, the suit claims. The musicians also claim to have made sizable, uncredited production contributions to "A Rose Is Still a Rose," a song Hill produced for Aretha Franklin's last album.

"Lauryn is a very gifted arranger, producer and writer, as well as a vocalist; she's the whole package," said Gordon "The Commissioner" Williams, the engineer at the sound board during most of the "Miseducation" sessions. Williams declined to discuss the lawsuit or New Ark's claims, but he described the album as a powerfully personal effort by Hill. "It's definitely her vision."

The Legal Tangle of 'Miseducation'

On top of that, you sound stupid saying she made no money from it. If she made no money from it, they wouldn't have been lawsuits.

Hmm this sounds exactly like Beyoncé and her writing situations since she also has writing credits on all her songs. Doesn't Beyoncé get shytted on for that?

You're honestly going to sit there and compare an artist who still releases new music to an artist who hasn't had a new release in over a decade. On top of that, Beyoncé should be selling out concerts. She has six albums worth of material that have sold millions of records. Lauryn Hill's catalog is two Fugees albums, a solo album, a live album, and random songs that are over at least over a decade old.

So because Beyoncé catches flack for it, we must throw dirt on Lauryn for it too. Not everybody knocks Beyoncé's writing situations because it is what is.
