She is so funny, humble, and wise beyond her years at 18. This whole clip was like a perfect time capsule of my childhood. What an era.

It’s so sad we always got somebody like you who brings up the irrelevant comparison! What the hell does Mary have to do with this!? This is Lauryn moment! And listen to what you said, R&B?? Lauryn is much bigger than R&B, she’s Hip Hop, she’s music period!! And one of the best MCs ever! Male or female! Allow us to celebrate her! We are here to see Lauryn! I love Mary!

Yes, indeed 🌠

Lauryn was beyond her time. When you consider her lyricism she did not use profanity and denigrative jargon like many other rappers do male or female. It takes a level of genius to speak for substance any one can make music with no meaning and low vibration using cursing, etc but to churn out music with a strong purpose that makes you think critically she is beyond a rapper, that is prophetic that is poetry.

That's why I like old female rappers like Lauren Hill and Queen latifah, MC lyte even diagble planet's kept it classy I only like to listen rap like that and the same goes for that male rappers I think conscious rap is coming back and becoming popular again I can't wait to see the new artist coming up 😊

30 years ago around this time as a troubled middle schooler, I witnessed one of the most BEAUTIFUL and ENDEARING artists of all time. Her name is Lauryn Hill. Seeing her in the Bill Duke directed underrated sequel to Sister Act changed my life. Lauryn reminded me there was NOTHING wrong with embracing my darker skin and natural hairstyles. This will ALWAYS mean a lot to me. 🙏🏾❤️

Tell the men. Female rappers must get the approval of men before they're put on.

I LOVE HOW SHE SAID IF YOU HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO USE YOUR GIFT TO GET PEOPLES ATTENTION WHO MISUSED IT OR WHY NOT USE IT TO YOUR FULLEST POTENTIAL

This was such a blessing to watch…so humble and look who she became and what she accomplished

Wow..She was wise beyond her years well spoken.An genuinely authentic I'm Glad I came up in the 90's

“Sister Act 2” premiered December 10, 1993 🎥 🎬 A perfect time for ET re releasing this gem on the 30th Sister Act 2 anniversary 🙏

Lauren Hill is my favorite female lyricist /rapper plus we share the same BDay. I loved watching this. A quick throw back from the 90’s ❤❤❤❤❤❤

This is GOLD ET! You had this locked up for 30 years!!!! 😂😩😩

Lauryn is such a beautiful amazing woman!!!! This video is a gem !!! Lauryn was and still is ahead of her time….. ! At 18 she had so much wisdom

Loved this!!! Very well spoken & gifted young woman. She looks so much younger with the bob hairstyle , than she did in Sister Act 2, with the braids.

The Golden Era ❤

I was introduced to Lauryn Hill through Sister Act 2. I’ve been hooked ever since ❤

“I play my enemies like a game of chess.. where I rest no stress”

So cool, as a longtime fan, it's funny to see her on campus. She dropped out to find her own path, it's kind of empowering when you think about it...

Loved her from ever since I can remember and this is a great reminder of why. Even at a young age her thoughts were on another level

🤦🏾‍♂️🙄 this dude was like you not really saying anything and she buried that quickly! She was definitely saying something🔥

this felt like it was recorded yesterday, incredible relevancy and wisdom coming from someone so young and restless

All that voice to come out of that young girl is always amazing to me fr

Wow, this very rare! She probably forgot that she did this. I hope she see this one day & her kids🙂

I feel you Ms.Hill… in middle School I listened to The Supremes, Frankie Lyman, Johnny Mathis, Marvin Gaye… and people thought me strange. Now that everyone is in their thirties.. now they appreciate these kinds of legends

It was great seeing this clip. Thank you for posting. She is always the same. Any time I have seen clips of her from years back til now, she is always intelligent, gracious and truly humble. Truly always was an old soul!

Beautiful! I love technology (I work within the field) but I do miss those times... Lauryn & the 90's = magical ✨💫✨

Everything about this video.. the vintage feel and nostalgia brings me back

Ion care, still love her and admire her since from the 8th grade. Straight like dat. 🥹🥰🫶🏾

Young female rapper whose appearance was stylish without being overtly sexual. Her words wasn't talking about how her coochie is pink. Just pure soul, hip hop, wisdom and fun.

Wowww talk about a blast from the past. This was beautiful to see. I love how grounded she was in her beginning stages. She was so nice.

Talent beauty intellect out of this world at ...17???18??? Sheesh

So inspiring that she was in school even during musical success. no gonna lie fame scares the shit outta me.

Yesssss simplicity at its finest less is more!!!! 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿💕💕💕💕💕 love you Lauryn!

She had that Bob Marley "Songs of Freedom" anthology on her desk. Also, I feel like she has a similar energy to a young, teenage Tupac here...

Wow. What a blast from the past!

We're on age and so this was literally me @ university lol Food and everything. Same year and tastes. My uncle went to Columbia though

She’s so gorgeous 😍

I loved her in sister act 2

To be this wise, talented and profound at such a young, she had no choice but for the world to seek her out. She’s always lead with her heart which I’ve always admired! A young black girl with a simple dream of being able to share her gifts, not for the want of money but for the compassion of spirit and heart.

❤Lauryn Hill and her music

Pensive mind even at a young age. I see why her word play became so legendary, so much to learn so much talent in her. her maturation was enormous. what an experienced life she lived for generation to respect with her classic music that is forever timeless.

She is absolutely gorgeous! I remember my big sister having that sweater ❤

Wow best female artist ever ❤love this

I’m happy she always held on to her roots to this day❤

Everything Is Everything ❤️

This is a good Time Capsule to show what is was like back 🔙 in the day.🤔😎🤗👏⭐✨🥤🚶 Entertainment Tonight. I remember Lauren Hill songs and seeing her in Sister Act 2.

7:44 - Lauryn Hill said she used to get into debates all the time with Whoopi Goldberg on important issues. "[Whoopi] respects my difference, I respect her difference." Seems like Lauryn was almost predicting that Whoopi would someday be a co-host and moderator on "The View." 😂 I love that.

Queen !!! 💐💐

Is being underrated because you have your own individuality, morals, being humble, not forgetting where you came from and not willing to sell out for what you believe in exchange for more power and wealth then let it be! Having salvation and peace is wealth! So many celebrities sell out sacrifice their beliefs, pushing something that they know is morally wrong to their fans, their own style that gives them a sense of identity and ways to present themselves and yes they get worldly Rewards the most unhappiest people! It just shows that even with all the fame wealth and power in the world, money can't buy you a piece of mind and happiness! Only God and our Lord Jesus Christ can bring us that! Lauryn Hill is one of a kind!
