The endlessly fascinating Lauryn Hill is a cherished icon of 90s Hip Hop and R&B. Her debut solo album was a smash hit, critically lauded and received an embarrassment of riches during awards season.In the years since, the reputation of this piece of work has grown. Retrospective reviews have heaped praise upon praise for Hill’s one and only solo studio album. It figures into just about every ‘best of’ list you can think of. In short, the people have held it up as a masterpiece.However, that doesn’t save ‘The Miseducation of Lauyn Hill’ from the Blastfrom Edit treatment. Released in 1998, deep into the Age of the Compact Disc, this album makes use of all everything the format has to offer. It would be impossible to cram every detail into a single disc LP.That’s what the Blastfrom Edits are all about. For no good reason other than it’s a thing to do, we take an album into our hearts, study it and find the most appealing way to butcher it into a format for which it was never designed.
