Reviews4 (out of 5) - "...Choosing to display all of her talent, songwriting ability, Lauryn pushes rap aside, opting to sing more....Lauryn's attempt to intellectualize pain and love in word without sacrificing emotion in song is daring and creative...", Included in Rolling Stone's "Essential Recordings of the 90's.", "...The jeep-bumping beats helped the album push platinum, but the potent, emotive songwriting made it an across-the-board pop milestone...", Ranked #67 in Mojo's "100 Modern Classics" -- "Hill's debut dazzled, with old school soul, heart-breaking break-up songs and metaphysical raps providing an unbroken chain of dizzying highs.", Ranked #2 in Ew's "Top 10 Albums of the '90s", Ranked #25 in Q's "Best 50 Albums of Q's Lifetime", "...Easily flowing from singing to rapping, evoking the past while forging a future of her own, Hill has made an album of often-astonishing power, strength, and feeling..." - Rating: A, 9 (out of 10) - "...the confidence with which Hill sings and raps herself into black music's mammoth tradition...is balanced by the vulnerability of one of MISEDUCATION's two themes: a love gone wrong, untangling itself painfully and slow....Part of her greatness is that this genre-bender has never feared sentiment...", Ranked #28 in Spin Magazine's "90 Greatest Albums of the '90s.", "It only seems natural that Lauryn Hill's solo debut should mesh hip hop and soul to the point where it's hard to hear where one ends and the other begins...", Included in Q Magazine's "90 Best Albums of the 1990s.", Ranked # 32 in Rolling Stone's "Women in Rock: The 50 Essential Albums" - "...The album unites hip-hop, R&B and reggae under a single groove...", 4 Stars (out of 5) - "...The sound of a woman who takes herself seriously....It's an album...that you could play at a family reunion, or any sort of multigenerational party, and get everyone bouncing and singing along, without anyone ever having to cringe...", 5 stars out of 5 - "...a superb collection of rhymes and beats and fresh lyrics that show how a good album should be recorded...", Ranked #1 on Spin's List of "Top 20 Albums of '98.", "Her solo debut’s unique power -- of finding strength in loss, of wading through heartache, of tackling motherhood -- has yet to wane.", "...Thoughtful, passionate, purposeful and unmistakably female....Small complaints, not even worth sweating when the overall emotional and musical effect is potent..."
