Lauryn Hill is back!
The iconic songstress unwrapped new song ‘Neurotic Society (Compulsory Mix)’ moments ago.
Not quite the triumphant comeback with the PR bells and whistles attached, the release -or at least its timing-has more to do with Hill’s current court case.
For, as earlier reported, longtime label Sony Music swooped in to save the revered singer by leveraging her outstanding tax debts against a new deal which sees her get her own imprint at the industry giant. Christened Obverse Creation Music, the first offering from the venture is ‘Neurotic’ which was silently released to iTunes within the hour.
Hill’s reasonings for the release and the song itself await after the jump…
Writing on her Tumblr page, the former Fugee star (who now goes by the alias Ms. Lauryn Hill) said:
Here is a link to a piece that I was ‘required’ to release immediately, by virtue of the impending legal deadline. I love being able to reach people directly, but in an ideal scenario, I would not have to rush the release of new music… but the message is still there. In light of Wednesday’s tragic loss (of former label mate Chris Kelly), I am even more pressed to YELL this to a multitude that may not understand the cost of allowing today’s unhealthy paradigms to remain unchecked!
– MLH
Hmm.
Given the wavelength Ms. Hill has been on for the last few years, we admittedly didn’t anticipate “liking” this. Yet we do.
The whimsical production juxtaposed against lyrics that tell of darkness and corporate fettering makes for a combination that works…this time.
And while “intelligent” has always been Lauryn’s lane, we hold out hope that one day, some day she’ll serve up product that ticks that box while managing to be accessible to the masses. After all, that was her greatest point of appeal during her ‘Miseducation’ run.
What’s more, there’s a limit to how seriously she can be taken slamming “the system” when it’s a) keeping her out of prison and b) is exactly what she’ll need to sustain the legacy and lifestyle she’s cultivated for herself. Rome wasn’t built in a day, nor was it built alone — similarly, her status was not orchestrated by her alone. The music industry is by no means “fair”, yet neither is life. The sooner “Ms. Hill” chews and swallows this concept, the sooner we’ll hopefully have the Lauryn we know and truly love back.

Oh…
This is some NEW AGE FUTURE s***. I’m here for this. We all know she was always ahead of her time.
Lauryn NO hunty…Please don’t finish the album and take your ass to jail and do that time…Lawwwd know we don’t need another lauryn hill unplugged…SMH
Coffined
LOL look at all those negative votes. Nobody likes you. Heh!
CTFU they can kiss my ass! Keeping thumbing me down bishes!
UMM NO REALLY … WHAT IS THIS?
I like the beat. Her rapping doesn’t match the beat though. I get that she’s deep/intellectual, but she isn’t able to mix that with a hit song for some reason. IMO.
BITCHPLEASE………….YO LAUREN, CLEARLY THE TALENT IS STILL THERE NO DOUBT SO JUST STEP IT UP AND STOP PLAYING FOR REAL MAA!!!!! SMFH 🙁 🙁
What in thee HAYOL did I just kill my brain cells wit? Noooooooo! This is horrible Lauren. HAYOL NO!
Ms L boogie what the hell was this.
o_ 0 uhm…….. well where do i start??…. the beat is way to busy and really does not go with the flow!! i actually like her verses her flow is dope!! but the beat is trash and this song seems rushed and not well put together at all… and where the hell is the hook????? with such an amazing voice you cant come up with a hook for this song??? GIRL BYE!!!
not feeling this
Lyrically this is fire and shits on every current female rapper.
However the production was lazy and ruins it.
This is different.
You can do much much better Lauryn..this gets a NO from me….As bad as it sounds,i know for sure this song is going to chart on the Billboard Hot 100.
So not feeling this
YES for Lauryn releasing new music! But BOO for the song … i think she’ll be on billboard hot 100 shortly though.
The struggle is real. pay your taxes folks
So she left the game for years,because it,s corrupt and stuff and she wanted no part of it,her fans bin asking for her for years and she didn’t give a d-mn…she turn her back and gave a def ears….now she wants to come back to this this dirty corrupt game..because she needs money,to pay them bills so she don’t go to jail.. i respect her for what she did in the past..but she is rapping about stuff now that she is not living up to..she spend most of her life with a married man and now she is doing this for money….she isn’t practicing what she preaches…i guess she can get away with stuff,other get bash and drag for days for because she is Lauren hills….the stuff you can get away with when you have a certain statues.
B**** do you like the song or not?All the other b******* you typed is irrelevant
It is very relevant. She talked about the same system she is now crawling back to. I think that is a valid concern.
AM i the only one who feeling this one ?!!!
Yes , GO INNNNNNNNNN !!!
i want a ” madonna-ray of light” kind of video to it and then i will be satisfied with this !!
Yes , i loved it !! 😀
I’m here for the music , not for the drama !
*abuses the replay button*
ahah mee too, i love how shes riding the beat with each bar she spits plus she’s still rapping that intellectual ish which i love.
Exactly , Simple-minded b****** can’t and won’t get it , they are so caught up in her taxes drama !!!
it is so sad they always trash artists when they are alive but when they die ……………….
i hope she get together , but music-wise , i like it like it , c’mon 😀
didn’t she go crazy after giving birth?
no Lauryn me no likey
F*CKKKKKKKKKKKKKK Lauryn bodied this, she still got it!! Sorry this is not for you bubblegum fruity n***** & tweens, you won’t get it. This is for the real Hip Hop heads, that’s why some of y’all don’t like. Patiently waiting for a new album now! L Boogie you have done did the darnnnnnnnn tongue!
“This is for the real Hip Hop heads, that’s why some of y’all don’t like.”
You sound stupid. Maybe they dont like it because…they just dont like it! Tastes differ.
Damn yo, so pleased with your comment that i accidentally clicked “report this comment” instead of reply. But anyways, so agree with you. So disappointed that some can’t overlook the unorthodox beat and appreciate the superior level of lyrical content delivered here. I am particular about artist choosing the right beat however I don’t see this one as so out of field that the average can’t enjoy. Lauryn hill just spit some of the hardest lyrics in the last 10yrs and you got some people turning up their nose…smh.
I like the song. She should consider making 3 albums.1 strictly singing, 1 strictly rapping, and a 3rd a mixture if both like “miseducation”…
omg that will be so cool..like a compilation or something with different themes but still one body of work. like vol 1. blankk.. Vol 2 blank…. And vol 3 with different titles. /
I like the production but ummmm Lauryn calm down boo.
EARGASMED!!! LOVE it! The delivery, the beat, the lyrical content. Ah-Ma-Zing!
love the lyrics but SLOW DOWN Lauryn… I hpe she also has some love songs too.
It sounds like a TV commercial.
Yes Lauryn!! Get those taxes PAID!!!!! H&R Block is getting THEIR LIFEEEEEEE today!!!
I dont really like this “rant rap” technique movement she’s trying to start but…I hear some promise in the lyrical content. I want more…next time I hope it can be something I can groove to.
🙂
I found this intriguing. I didn’t love it, but Lauryn’s definitely winning points for 1)staying true to her artistry, 2)sounding completely different from anything else out, 3) sounding totally futuristic(that was mind-blowing & inspiring) and 4) sounding like the evolution of Lauryn Hill…
On top of everything, I heard no lies being told in the 4+ minutes of that song. I have to respect this!
The Ffffff@most of these comment!! Some of you all’s ears are so use to trash until you can’t even appreciate something good when it comes along. This is like a masterclass in rhyming, a superior showcasing and yall getting hang up on an unorthodox beat..the FUDGIT!! Yes the beat is unconventional however still doable for the average hardcore hiphop fan. Additionally, the lyrical content and flow is light years beyond 99.9% percent of whats out there. HELLO, i don’t think this was an intended lead single but something thrown out there for rap fans, and apparently a lot of you are not. Real hiphop fans will rejoice over this all day. As for u lamebryant…smdh.
I like it. It’s real, not a hit, but a great song for an album. Y’all are just used to trash, she out did almost every rapper, male and female.
I like Lauryn Hill, but i hope this is not released as a single though. It’s nice but different. I was thinking she is rapping too fast for the beat or the beat is off, but i’m getting used to it after a few listens. Good to see Lauryn Hill back though.
Nicki better hide her career because this song will slay it if it’s released as a single, and it’s not even close to being Lauryn’s best. Just like Justin Timberlake, the public has been so thirsty for something…ANYTHING…new from Lauryn that they’ll snap it up just because. All the silly little pop girls and pop girl rappers better be hoping that Lauryn isn’t seriously staging a commercial comeback because all of their careers will be over if she does.
Yupp.
Nobody will take Nicki seriously with Lauryn back on the scene. Lauryn is to Nicki what Adele is to Gaga. Serious artists come around and make these pop tarts look silly and pointless.
lol I like that “Nicki better hide her career” line. 😛 While the rest of them try so desperately to keep relevancy with gimmicks, stunts, controversies, cheap branding, rereleases, new albums every year, Lauryn can literally throw out something she wrote and recorded in 20 minutes, not bother to promote it and still slay everybody’s faves w/o trying or even really wanting to.
Don’t compare gaga to that plastic. Gaga is actually talented after all those outfits she wears.
This is hot. I’m thirsty for a lauryn album she always delivers. She’s not in the female league and there will never be a dope female rapper like her. she’s up there with legends B.I.G, Tupac, Jay Z, Eminem she’s the ish
I am a LH FAN but this is FOOLERY at BEST!!!! I love the lyrical content but you can’t even get into because I felt like somebody just laced my drink!!!! My goodness slow it down a bit…..
I freakin LOVE it. She maybe be putting out music to pay off her taxes in a quick fast and hurry, but she’s still dropping SERIOUS KNOWLEDGE. This game got many of your ears f*cked up (Nicki, Wayne, Jay, etc). The fact that she’s dropping profound lyrics all the while riding this crazy a** beat is CRAZY. Dope sh*t. For real for real. I feel sad because some of you are so far gone, you do not notice the gem that was just dropped into your laps.
Lauryn hill will not be the one to rap nursery rhymes and nonsensical b******* -nicki- so stop expecting her to her flow steamrolls over most female AND male rappers that are out right now especially in this song. It has meaning OTHER than I’m better than you richer than you or lemme get some of that P*ssy. If you don’t get it you are part of the reason why hip hop is on the life support of using house beats to sell a song rather than the content standing alone the way it USED to be and USED to sell. The use of techno beats in hip hop wasnt progression it was an act of desperation. #isaidit
F*** THE HOT 100 REAL MUSIC>EVERYTHING
Lyrically she still got it and she is still on that real s***! This song sounds like it needs to be remastered tho…
sONY IS ONLY PLAYING UPON LAURYN’S DESEPARATION. sHE HAS HAD TO EAT EVERYTHING SHE SAID ABOUT GETTING OUT. NOW SHE IS SCRAMBLING TRYING TO GET BACK IN. LOOK WHAT THE INDUSTRY CAN DO TO A DESEPARATE ENTERTAINER. SO WHAT IF YOU SING ABOUT THE PROBLEMS AND TURN AROUND AND BOW TO THE SAME ONE THAT YOU ARE SINGING ABOUT FOR A DOLLAR. WHO IS ZOOMING WHO????
MURDER, HILL murdered this mutha f***** track…………………………………………………………………F*** ALL YALL
I delight in, cause I discovered just what I was taking a look for. You have ended my 4 day lengthy hunt! God Bless you man. Have a great day. Bye
