Hill, Lauryn
Radio Session (unplugged)
Hill departed from the hip hop sounds of her debut album 'The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill' (1998) in favor of austerely performed acoustic soul and folk-based songs. She jokingly described herself as a "hip-hop folk singer", and according to Robert Hilburn, assumed the role of a folk singer accompanied only by her acoustic guitar. Rather than singing any of her previous hits, Hill debuted all new songs in a folk style and, in between songs, spoke at length about her personal and artistic struggles.
