Lauryn Hill, a native of South Orange, New Jersey, initially gained recognition as a multifaceted artist within the influential group known as the Fugees. The collective's debut album, "Blunted On Reality", failed to garner significant public attention; however, their sophomore effort, "The Score", marked a significant turning point in their career, featuring the iconic hit single "Killing Me Softly". This album has remarkably maintained its status as the world's top-selling rap album of all time, with an impressive 17 million units shipped globally. In 1996, Hill earned two prestigious Grammy Awards, specifically for Best Rap Album and Best R&B Performance by a duo or group.
Before releasing her groundbreaking solo album, "The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill", Hill gave birth to Zion, whose alleged father is the renowned reggae artist Bob Marley's son. The highly anticipated album, which Hill wrote and produced herself, made a profound impact upon its release, immediately topping the Billboard charts.
