The certification is significant in that it is the songstress’s only studio album and was released over two decades ago. At the time the album was released, many had expected many more to follow. But none came.
Commenting about that, she had stated that no one from her record label ever called her about the possibility of making another album after “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.” Perhaps she was waiting for them to give the signal?
By the way, “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill” was pretty popular at the time of release and many had expected her to follow it up with another project. Anyway, in 2002, she released a live album titled “MTV Unplugged No. 2.0.”
Expectedly, she is chuffed by her new diamond certification for “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.”
