Don't want to criticize but I' m just wondering... Isn't it a little ironic that it's "uncle Sam" who force her to record new music? Isn't it in contradiction with her ideologies? I’ve been fighting for existential and economic freedom, which means the freedom to create and live without someone threatening, controlling, and/or manipulating the art and the artist, by tying the purse stringsSome could say "we know she was already doing new music before this story", I agree but... If she "loves to create", why didn't she put some music online, mixtape or this kind of things you can control by yourself? I feel that her speech against the system of the music industry (and the system in general) seems fake, now that she seems to "abdicate". It seems that nobody can escape the system. Hope I'm wrong. Yes, I hear what you saying. However, it also takes money (a budget) to produce quality music, which includes being able to pay other musicians to play and produce on her record. I have read where people said she like you could easily release music independently, but she is “Lauryn Hill”. The quality of the music has to be to right or else people would find another reason to criticize her. Unfortunately, the label is really the only source that could fund the money in order to create a quality album. For her to go the independent route will still cost money, and it will be coming from her pockets and she is probably not financially able to do that. And at the end of the day, this is how she makes her living by performing and creating music so who cares as to why she is putting out an album now….what else is she supposed to do in order to pay her bills but work like any other individual in this situation. Clearly, a deal worked out where she felt would allow her the proper platform to express her music and I think that is all she has been looking for all these years.

This statement, Nutzz: "I’ve been fighting for existential and economic freedom, which means the freedom to create and live without someone threatening, controlling, and/or manipulating the art and the artist, by tying the purse strings."
is addressed by this statement: "It took years for me to get...into a deal that better reflects my true contribution as an artist, and (purportedly) gives me the control necessary to create a paradigm suitable for my needs. I have been working towards this for a long time, not just because of my current legal situation, but because I am an artist, I love to create, and I need the proper platform to do so.
not really sensing any fakery or contradiction

I have read that they are completing the album at Germano Studios in New York, I assume because of what was reported with the musicians working inside of the home with the code violation and all ....But this was tweeted today from Germano Studios' twitter account: "Germano Studios @troygermano Lauryn Hill mixing in Studio 2"

U think that, when the situation turn problematic for Ms Hill, Sony said "ok do it the way u want, we pay".... I thought it was the contrary, Ms hill with problem chose to accept an ancient deal that she had first refused (I think I read smth like dat somewhere ...) Anyway, we don't know who's askin' who and the good thing is that she'll release smth

D. Schwartz @d_schwartz 5m One of the records is. She still has it for sure and when she comes out with it really might remind people of her greatness. Wow Details
D. Schwartz @d_schwartz 6m I got to listen to some Lauryn Hill songs last night that nobody has heard outside of the room she recorded them in. I was shocked how dope

No news but just a personal thought about the album; During the Brooklyn concert, she said: "I’m going to compile the music I did over the years, that I didn’t get to share with you and share that with you"
By "the music i did over the years", I understand some things (but it's a personal perception): - Maybe she will release the studio treatment of songs she performed in lives in past: we know I Remember was recorded. I think Chains can be perfect in addition to Neurotic Society. I pray for a Conform to Love studio treatment also ! - Maybe she had re-work on old stuff: in 2010, Repercussions appears on the internet and a producer said it will be on the next Lauryn album. But it sounds like an unreleased track/demo from Miseducation era. - Maybe she had re-work songs from her rejected album in 2005.
