Song 1- Lost Ones

-       She talks about being famous and how to become successful
-       She says how you have to be determined with prosperity

Lauryn Hill
- I thought that Lauryn Hill did a really good job writing this album. I thought that the things that she wrote about were really relatable to everyday life. Like she talked about relationships and tough times growing up, which I think, is very relatable to a lot of people. I also liked about how she kind of made it obvious as to whom she was writing to. I just thought that really made each songs meaning more interesting. I also liked how she combined singing and rap into each song making the beat and the lyrics much more pleasing to listen too. Overall I really liked the couple songs that we listened too. Previously I never had heard about Lauryn Hill but listening to her album really told me how great of a rapper she is.
