Lauryn Hill’s presentation collection The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill has been affirmed jewel by the RIAA today.

The collection was delivered on August 25, 1998 by Ruffhouse Records and Columbia Records, and highlighted a blend of R&B and Hip-Hop. It appeared at number 1 spot on the Billboard 200 graph, selling 422,624 duplicates in its first week, what broke a record for first-week deals by a female craftsman at that point.
The collection, which is viewed as an exemplary by fans and pundits, procured 10 assignments at the 41st Annual Grammy Awards, winning five honors. It was incorporated by the Library of Congress in the National Recording Registry in 2015. Lamentably, Lauryn Hill never delivered a collection after that.
