YOU GUYS HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO THAN READ ABOUT WHERE YOU CANT GO. I AM A true LAURYN FAN! TRUE SHE HAS A NEW FASHION STYLES THESE DAYS BUT JUST HERE POINT THAT ALL YOU EMPTY MINDED OVER OPINONATED NET JUNKIES WHOM CALL THEMSELVES FANS …SEEM TO MISS. ALL THAT ARTIST GIVE UP TO LIVE THEIR PASSIONS (WHICH MOST OF US DREAM OF DOING!)IN THE SPOT LIGHT AND CONTINUE TO EVAULVE AS A PERSON IN THE SPOT LIGHT..LAURYN IS SAYING F! THE MADNESS & THE VANITY AND POSION AND OPINONS THAT COMES WITH THAT LIFE AND PAY ATTENTION TO MY VOICE AND THE LYRICS…THE ART!
I SAW LAURYN LAST NIGHT HERE IN Oakland AND YES SHE WAS ON LATE BUT WHEN SHE CAME ON SHE ROCKED IT!LAURYNS ENERGY WAS HIGH, SHE LOOK LIKE SHE WAS FEELING HER LYRICS, AND HER VOICE WAS JUST WHAT I EXPECTED.
THE HALF OF YOU INCLUDING THE AURTHUR OF THIS ARTICLE CANT EVEN IMAGINE THE TRIPS ON STAGE IN FRONT OF HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE, DREAM OF CHOOSING THE PERFECT OUTFIT THAT YOU FEEL GOOD IN FOR THE DAY AND IT BEING THE WRONG OUTFIT FOR EVERY 2ND PERSON IN WORLD … YOUR DREAMS CANT REACH HALF AS FAR AS THE WORK SHE PUT IN TO BE WHO SHE IS. SHES A DEVOTED MOTHER, WIFE AND A TRUE ARTIST THAT DESERVES TRUE FANS. BUT IM SURE THAT OVER YOU HEADS ALSO!
IN ADDITION I FIND IT FUNNY THAT WHEN ANDRE 3000, BEFORE THE 3000 HE WAS JUST ANDRE… A RAPPER WITH OUTCAST THEN HE GOT WITH BADU AND SHE HELPED HIM OPEN HIS MIND; THIS KAT CAME ON THE SCENE WITH LINE GREEN FURRY PANTS UP TO HIS NIPPLE IN ADDITION TO SOME OTHER CHOICE CLOTHING THE WORLD TILTS THEIR HEAD A LITTLE AND KEPT IT PUSHING AND EMBRACED HIM AS THIS ECLECTIC ARTIST AND HIT A WHOLE OTHER LEVEL OF STARDOM AND HE CONTINUED TO GROW INTO THIS BEAUTIFUL PIECE OF ATR HIMSELF! NOW MY GIRL LAURYN A THAT TOOK THE SAME DRASTIC CHANGE IN CLOTHING CHOICES, IS HELD AT SUCH JUDGMENT AS A WHOLE. IS IT BECAUSE SHES A WOMAN AND HER CHOICES PLAY DOWN HER PUBLIC OPINION OF “SEXY”… IM JUST SAYING

I first became infatuated w/ Lauryn when the Fugees came out mainly because she was a beautiful chick hanging w/ dudes and she wasn’t gay!!!! That was me. but then I fell off, then what happened….. she goes solo.

Da Miseducation cd brought me through my lonely pregnacy @ da age of 15. The words of all of those songs touched every aspect of my life and helped me get thru the tough times and come out w/ a beautiful baby girl and a new outlook on both of our lives. I’m a ride or die fan for Lauryn. I even stuck up for her when the Fugees appeared for a reunion and she had the black bow on. I don’t want to comment on this recent show b/c I wasn’t there. We absolutely love or children so there’s no way she’ll be doing anything that will hurt them or affect them in a negative way.

I got tickets to go to the VIBE concert that was at Phillips Arena in 2005. The Marley bro.’s opened the concert and Lauren ended it. We knew she was buggin when she was on stage with a turtle neck sweater on, huffin & puffin as if she had just run from NY to Atlanta. I think it was JULY! It was 90 something degree! She stopped the in mid song to fuss at the band who she said was off, but it was really her!

She couldn’t get it together to save her life. People walked out and I would’ve been sooooo pissed if I had paid for the tickets!

She will never get my support again!

@ archie.

We Fake? We Fairweather?
I dunno, but #49, and 50 bought up some good points:

“She talks a lot of Shit but walked away from the Oakland show with a grip of money. ”

“Self rightous talk while you drive away with our money and claim your keeping it real.”

I saw Lauryn at the beginning of her “change” back in 2001 (i think). She performed in Brooklyn, NYC for free at the yearly African American Street Festival which used to be on Fulton & Utica. Many of us had NO idea what we were in for. Despite her crying on stage, crying while singing, and leaving Scooby-Doo “huh’s?”, and question marks over the heads of 90% of the people there, we still cheered.

We knew she was going through some shit by mid performance and we RODE with her.

Lemme repeat that: we RODE with her.

This concert was BEFORE the MTV unplugged performance and CD. 5-6 years later, we still rode for her despite all the reports that chick is buggin the fuck out. After a while, when you see shit for yourself as many people witness, you just say fuck it.

Like Info said, no more excuses.

Its not the promoters fault.
If Lauryn knows good and well she’s NOT gonna perform old songs, and wants to do some new extra shit, she has the power to indicate that beforehand, so people know what to expect.

Lauryn as much as we love this chick – fell the fuck off. TRUE fans and friends – not dick/crotch riders – will tell you when your shit stinks.

Ill say again:
Many of us have been fans since “Blunted On Reality”. She’s not pulling people in, shes alienating former and new fans.”
