NEW MUSIC: Ms. Lauryn Hill - 'Neurotic Society' (Compulsory Mix)

This song debuted a few weeks ago but I'm just getting the chance to give it a listen. Ms. Hill is surely spitting some rhymes that makes you think of the world we live in today. 

When  reports began circulating that she'd signed a $1 million deal with Sony — one that stipulated she release five new songs (and an album), Hill released "Neurotic Society," her first bit of new music in nearly three years where she finds herself speeding through a torrent of words as she raps:

"We're living in a joke time, metaphorical coke time / Commerce and girl men / Run the whole world men / Bold, drunken debauchery / Old world brutality /..."

"Here is a link to a piece that I was 'required' to release immediately, by virtue of the impending legal deadline," Hill wrote in a post on Tumblr. "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."

GIVE IT A LISTEN BELOW... Thoughts?!?!?

“When we filmed the video for ’Heartbeat,’ we knew we wanted it to be more about the feeling of the song and less about the story. The colors, environment, and everyone dancing in their own element creates this surreal feeling of freedom. It’s just about listening to the rhythm inside you and letting that rhythm guide you”

Check out your favorite twins as they debut new looks as well. I am diggin' this new sound they are trying. It just might work out to their advantage. I can see this being a great pop/club hit.
