by JOSS STONE:
"lauryn hill, everybody told me i was mad for even trying to get lauryn on the record. i don’t know why but something was telling me to keep trying. so i did for a while. i also wanna say thanks sososo much to lauryn's mum mrs. hill because she was the one who put up with my constant phone calls. sorry luv, i just had to make it happen. lauryn, there are 2 female singers on this earth that have inspired me greatly, that is aretha franklin and you. i love your words, the way u say things and the things u say. your voice is stunnin' and the lyrics are something i can never even dream of coming up with. not only do i love your music, lyrics and style, i appreciate you as a person well, as much as i know of you, and when i listen to the unplugged thing to hear you speak like that, so freely. alot of people are too scared to do what u do (which is i’m hoping whatever u want, and rightfully so) you change things up, never boring, whenever that mouth of yours opens some crazy things happen. we all got given gifts but there’s something different about yours -- it’s out of this world. i can’t quite put my finger on it but it’s lovely anyway. thank u so much for being a part of my record and on my favorite song. what u've said on the track is inspired and i’m still in shock every time i hear your verse come in. thank u so much. u have a beautiful spirit and the world sees that.
fact: lauryn hill is not crazy or racist. i have the proof. so whoever it is who started that rumour, i believe should put a call in to miss hill and apologise for the heartache and stress and unnecessary frustration that has been put on her family for that remark. did this person (you know who you are and are lucky i do not) not ever stop to think maybe she just wanted to rest? or maybe she didn’t wanna sing for a while, maybe she wanted to have a family, bake a cake, build a house from leaves and pine nuts, whatever the reason, it’s none of my business or anyone else’s. let’s just enjoy the beauty and the message and tone that she brings to this world.
lauryn, beautiful through and through. I feel that from her. don’t care what is said. aretha and lauryn. what more do u need when it comes to the chicks?"
