I love watching these guys! I think their reactions are truly genuine, loved watching them seeing Jolene by Dolly Parton and the Creep by Radiohead. They have no weird preconceptions about they style of music or the genre. My one question, did their moms not play music when they were growing up?? My family had music playing all the time, I love all styles of music going back to the 50s and I'm an 80s/90s kinda girl

That’s rare where all types of fans bases love and appreciate your work on a particular album. I feel like each passing year, people forget about the fugees. I still prefer pac, big, big l and wu-tang but none of those guys did well commercially (when they were alive pac/big) than the Fugees did with “the score”

Kids today don't listen to the radio like we did. We heard these incredible songs from a fairly wide scope over and over and over. They find their music on social media, streaming services, and video gaming: Tik Tok, Instagram, KZfaq, Snapchat, Twitch, Roblox, etc... often used as background. So while we were "served" playlists on limited channels and platforms (radio, TV, cable, Albums/Tapes/Cds/Videos/DVDs), they have far more options (extensive media, endless sites) - the world has opened up.

For the most part it's a lie, most reactors claim they never heard anything, so you can click and watch someone's "authentic" first time reaction, not gonna say them in particular cus I can't know for sure but seriously, who the fuck doesn't know about the legendary Lauryn Hill and her signature song killing me softly?? 10 year olds know this song, you have to have at least heard it somewhere or in a movie

Hip Hop Royalty. The Fugees did their thing but Lauryn Hill went on to be a solo artist in which she won 5 Grammy's for her debut album (The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill) released in 1998. This album is flawless. You ran listen to every song multiple times and never get tired of it. Favorite track: "Tell Him."
