Miseducated No Longer?

Lauryn Hill's bitter new acoustic medicine is as exasperating as it is intriguing

And even though Hill's hoarse voice periodically threatens to crack, Unpluggedemphasizes what a great singer she is -- and how little credit she tends to get for it. Unlike so many of her peers, she's not merely skilled but deeply soulful, conveying a wisdom and maturity that her lyrics don't always match. More than ever, her rasp makes her sound like a politicized, new-generation Gladys Knight. Unlike Knight, though, you know Hill won't be on that midnight train to Georgia; she'd rather live in her own world than live with him in his.
