We don’t hear much from the lyrically acclaimed Lauryn Hill but back in June she explains her reason for leaving the music industry:
“There were a number of different reasons. But partly, the support system that I needed was not necessarily in place.

In fact, as musicians and artists, it’s important we have an environment — and I guess when I say environment, I really mean the [music] industry, that really nurtures these gifts. Oftentimes, the machine can overlook the need to take care of the people who produce the sounds that have a lot to do with the health and well-being of society, or at least some aspect of society.
