G.O.A.T DEBATE # 2 : LAURYN HILL

Mixtape Assembly

To be top 3, or not to be, that is the question... Lauryn Hill's a GOAT, no word of a joke...but it feels like her name is rarely mentioned in these lists and debates, so we had to take action. Affirmatively. This time the discussion was a three way thing, with Janai now on board as a co-host alongside Simon and Hartley - a real boost to the team. As well as critiquing Lauryn's style in general, each host chose a favourite verse to explore: Simon kick's off with Lost Ones, Janai comes through with Doo-Wop, and Hartley hits us with How Many Mics. We were also lucky enough to get a bunch of artists to share their favourite L Boogie lyrics with us, including Shezar, Gorgon City and Nesah Gonzales. Big ups all round. It's clear that we're all in love with Lauryn, though feelings towards Wyclef are more complex, and, in a strange twist, Talib Kweli is cast as the story's pantomime villain...
