MTV Unplugged No. 2.0 [Live]

Amazon.com
Lauryn Hill has loudly (and justifiably) been declared a brilliant artist already in her young career, and MTV Unplugged No. 2.0 will do nothing to dissuade anyone. This double-CD acoustic set contains snippets from her debut album, but most of it is new material that Hill performs with raw, shockingly honest intensity. Coming on the heels of a well-publicized period of depression and unhappiness for the ex-Fugees singer, Hill's reenergized outlook is plainly evident in this stripped-down performance--it's basically just Hill and her unplugged guitar--as well as the highly spiritual nature of the material. Cutting across musical styles from bossa nova ("Just Like Water") to Marley-esque rebel songs ("Oh Jerusalem," "The Conquering Lion," "Freedom Time"), the singer's voice is throaty and rough throughout, giving the performance an earthy, heartfelt pull. It's a deeply personal performance, filled with blistering social commentary and the evils of self-delusion while detailing her ongoing attempt to escape from the public persona her fame has created. In destroying her old artistry, she discovers a new creative force, yielding a mesmerizing and enchanting classic. --Jake Barnes

A Voice.......2007-06-30

This CD is a pure step out. A step out in a world where the media is filtering down all expressions. The CD will open your eyes heart and mind if only you let it. Some people Might not Initially get it (Understand) because of where they are in the mind, body and spirit. But like Most revolutionary Art it will be more understood in the future. To think that A diamond multi award winning artist will flop or lose her talents is laughable. She's creating Love, Communicating to people in need,While Bearing herself to create a sense of unity amongst her and her fans. Many artist today create such a image in today's media, that it's hard to relate to their Expression. The album is truth, reality, and a awakening. It's Something Deeper than the usual. There's A voice there that will speak, Uplift, and Touch you. The Chords are Repetitive and simple. The Lyrics are the centerpiece and foreground. If anyone is Debating a purchase or don't get it. READ the lyrics from her site and Youtube search Lauryn Hill. God Bless

FEEL THIS.......2007-05-14

WITH THIS YOU SEE LAURYN HILL RAW AND BROKE DOWN AND THAT WAS COOL THAT SHE ALLOWED YOU TO SEE HER THIS WAY

excellent.......2007-03-30

...this album was great! I loved this album, it was so honest true. Its an album that is sit back and chill. Its deep/sad... its a lot of things.

Unplugged.......2007-03-29

If your ears are plugged up with music from mains stream media you will be deeply disappointed. With this album she was going through a transformation that only spiritual people (Not religious) are able to relate to. She was singing about life, struggles and the world that we live in.
I am proud of her and respect her a lot because she had the guts to do what many people don't even dream about.

PROLIFIC AND POWERFUL-TRUTH.......2007-03-13

Truth is prolific. Instead of singing about love lost and found. Lauryn talks about solutions to life's problems. She talks about religion as repenting and letting go of all of the things in life that are killing you. This is prolific and ultimately delivered in a way that is both personal and raw. Anyone who doesn't feel this album is unwilling to deal with the truth that Lauryn shares (i.e. "WE ARE ALL A MESS"). There are very few artist that leave you speachless and engrossed in the power of their words and voice. They include Meshelle Ndegeocello, Tracy Chapman, Lauryn Hill, Bob Marley and others. Those are just my favorites. These artist share the truths about life. We all hurt. We all lie. We all cheat ourselves and others. WOW. If you are looking for music that will inspire, motivate and leave you feeling as if you have gone on a journey and come home a better person then you need to listen to this album.

Nothing Else Like It.........2004-06-20

Great for a group of Intellectuals to drink some herbs and Truly Discuss Life and Living! Lauryn puts us up on so much game with this album- you have tyo uncover the truth of the lyrics. Remember, if you're looking 4 perfectly sung and studio recorded Ballads, look to Ashanti or Beyonce' or somebody- performers- because with this album, Lauryn has proclaimed that that is just what she is NOT- anybody's Performer!
