Hey guys...Found this, thought i would pass on the info..

LAURYN HILL ALBUM DEAL IN JEOPARDY?

Singer LAURYN HILL's record deal is "inactive" - after her label boss concedes she will never have an album as successful as her former group THE FUGEES. The hip-hop star hasn't released a solo album since 2002's MTV Unplugged No. 2.0 - and Columbia Records senior manager Kyambo 'hip Hop' Joshua admits he doesn't know when the follow-up will be. He says, "Her deal is borderline inactive, though I'm sure they want to do an album. But when you sign an act in another era, with a deal based on the act being a superstar, things can change (years later). "These days, even if you do great numbers, they will likely not be Fugees numbers. So, I have to see what direction she and her people would like to take and what they'd like to do." The Fugees split in 1997 - but briefly got back together in 2004.

[FONT=Impact]Where did u read this?

I wondered about that. How is it that LH is able to not finish her deal. Yea she signed in 97 but she's hasnt done a studio album in 10 yrs ( in just 6 days it'll b 08)! Did she buy out her contract (does she have the $ 2 do that?)

Bc of Yt & bootlegging, she wont sell 8mill US, but I'm sure my girl can do 5mill.

WE LOVE LAURYN!
