Lauryn Hill premieres new track ‘Neurotic Society’

Following Lauryn Hill’s announcement of her return to music last week, the singer has unveiled her first piece of new solo work since 2010’s Repercussions with Neurotic Society.

Subtly dubbed ‘Compulsory Mix‘, the track propels the singer back to her hip-hop roots and goes some way to show how strong her emcee skills actually are.

The track, which was quietly added onto iTunes by her label, was clearly more of a ‘get out of contract’ release vs one that had been fully planned, with Hill taking to her Tumbler page saying”

Here is a link to a piece that I was ‘required’ to release immediately, by virtue of the impending legal deadline…. I love being able to reach people directly, but in an ideal scenario, I would not have to rush the release of new music… but the message is still there. In light of Wednesday’s tragic loss (of former label mate Chris Kelly), I am even more pressed to YELL this to a multitude that may not understand the cost of allowing today’s unhealthy paradigms to remain unchecked!
