7 mai 2002 - "The Mystery of Iniquity"

Description:

Lauryn Hill was a very popular singer and rapper in the 1990s. Her own problems with her record label lead her to a decline in her career. Now, Lauryn Hill still releases music, but it rarely makes an impact on the hip-hop community. Mystery of Iniquity was released late in the success of her career. It is a track on her album, “MTV Unplugged 2.0: Lauryn Hill.” The song deals with racial tensions, primarily within the criminal justice community. Lauryn Hill uses biblical imagery throughout her lyrics. In Kanye West’s “It All Falls Down,” he wanted to sample this song by Lauryn Hill. Because it’s nearly impossible to get the rights from her songs, he was unable to do so.
