classic r&b from a pioneer
This is what American music is...carved from her island style and fused with her street savvy, this album shines with everything Lauryn Hill was and is, and what she represents is an undying, unyielding spirit which recognizes the best and the worst of society and turns it into something to which everyone can relate. With funky beats and sweet, sweet melodies!

worse album ever
this album is wack the only 2 songs on here i like is

1 nothing even matters
2 ex factory but other then that i was so diappointed when i bought this album 8 years ago i was salty this is the worse album i ever bought in my life besides whats the 411 by mary j blige

timeless
after a decade it's still one of my favorites. i love every track on here, especially zion. i should probably buy a new one, since the one i have is scratched up, but it still plays pretty good. she really taught the lessons of being in love, being a woman and a mother.

Sooo Bittersweet
I bought this album when it first came out and listened to it like crazy. I remember her singing "Zion" at the grammys and crying it was so beautiful. I say it's bittersweet because obviously it's about love and heartache and breakup's and makeups. But also because this was her only ablum for a few years until she came out with that Unplugged album which was even more deep and dark and sad, but great. I love her music , you can tell what she's going through with every track. All around great investment.

Doesn't take much to describe this album
Even after a decade this album still sounds sooo much better than most anything else out right now. I don't think I'll ever get tired of hearing this album over and over. I was introduced to it as a middle school kid, I rediscovered it a few months ago and just can't believe how fresh and deep it still sounds.
