This album would take home five Grammy Awards including Album of the Year.\n\nWritten by Lauryn Hill, this was the singer's debut single. The song is a warning against guys who are more interested in frivolous, expensive things than their girlfriends or families. Hill had some difficult relationships that may have inspired this; she dated Wyclef Jean from her group Fugees and was once engaged to Rohan Marley, son of Bob Marley.\n\nWith this song, Hill became the first woman since Debbie Gibson to debut at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with a song she wrote, recorded, and produced on her own. Gibson did the same with \"Foolish Beat\" in 1989.\n\nIt was an accomplishment Hill was not encouraged to make. \"For some reason, women aren't taken seriously as thinkers and creators and arrangers and producers,\" she told Playboy. \"The industry thinks there always has to be some man somewhere puppeteering the whole situation.\"\n\nHill wanted to prove that a female artist could use her brains to have a chart-topper rather than her body, unlike fellow performers like Lil' Kim. She told Details magazine: \"I'm not dissing them, I'm dissing their mind-set. My music talks about a certain way of thinking, and if the cap fits, you know? I knew girls like Kim growing up - I might have even been one at certain age - and there's a huge lack of self-esteem behind that thinking. I mean, when I was 14 I thought that if a guy didn't whistle at me, that meant I wasn't pretty. But either you mature past that or you get caught in the concept of, 'Oh, I have to show some ass, 'cause that's the only way I can feel beautiful.' Sex is cool, but it's only part of the story.\" https://tinyurl.com/ytwt6ap9", "location": 1, "location_name": "Default", "play_type": "trackplay" } ] }
