EPISODE SUMMARY:

Many people will go their entire lives without an opportunity for greatness. So it shouldn't seem so unfortunate or unusual when someone's period of greatness is brief. That's doubly true for someone like R&B legend Lauryn Hill, whose main solo contribution is the 1998 album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill was so flawless that it's more than enough to define their entire artistic presence. Comedian Tony Baker recognized it when the album first came out, and it to this day it stays in his "Holy Trinity" of records.
