Cited as one of the greatest female MCs of all time, Ms. Lauryn Hill’s prolific rhymes and powerful voice catapulted her into the public eye as a member of the Fugees. The band’s 1996 album, The Score, was certified six times platinum and took home two GRAMMY Awards for Best R&B Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal and Best Rap Album.

In 1998, as a solo artist, Ms. Hill established herself as a creative force with her now classic debut, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. The iconic work earned Ms. Hill a record-setting 10 GRAMMY Award nominations and she took home five, including Best New Artist and Album of the Year. The album was also nominated in several categories at the NAACP Image Awards, including Outstanding Female Artist, Outstanding Album, and Outstanding Song for both “Doo Wop (That Thing)” and “A Rose Is Still A Rose.”  To date The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill has sold 8 million copies worldwide.
