When "The Score" was released by the Fugees, it really struck a cord in my group of friends for some reason. This is pretty strange considering that at the time we were listening to Siamese Dream, The Blue Album, and Evil Empire. Rap wasn't on our list of favorite music. I also quite enjoyed Lauryn Hill's solo release when it came out several years later. I don't really listen to either of those albums anymore, but I still think back to that period in my life (back in like 1996) when I hear any songs from "The Score". This is really amazing considering that I am still capable of intelligent thought after listening to 2 albums featuring Lauryn Hill. By the way, she never commited suicide.
