MXT レコード& CD

Review: With this Unplugged album, American r&b and soul great Lauryn Hill veered away from the hip-hop influences of her groundbreaking debut The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill in 1998 to embrace a more stripped-down acoustic soul and folk sound. Humorously dubbing herself a 'hip-hop folk singer,' she adopted the role of a folk artist for the set and performed solo with just her acoustic guitar. Rather than revisiting her previous hits, Hill introduced entirely new material in a folk style, often taking time between songs to openly discuss her personal and artistic struggles and offered a raw and introspective glimpse into her journey.
