Lets encourage our youth to stay in school and get an education so they can read and comprehend the contract that they may sign in the future. Not saying she isn’t a future star. She’s a Marley, it’s all good, but still.

Her mom needs to stop BSing and put another Album out!
I also miss the Fugees. Can we please get one more Album before everyone gets too old? LOL

yes , Please encourage her to get her degree first . Every to time I turn around a new nigga wants to sing or dance or rap . Gotdam !

She doesn’t sound so “good” but hey Lauryn didn’t either when she was on the Apollo and got booed off. She needs time for her voice to mature and to just like her mom come back fierce!!!

No, she can’t sing.

She look JUST like her mama just a lighter version

this child couldnt sing if you pay for a million lesson lol,come on!

What does it matter. All she will have to do is wait until she gets older, show some boobs, and then have a computer program fix her voice. Who has talent now a days, hardly anyone. The 1960s and 70′s are over. Talent does not count any more. Besides, she is Lauren Hills daughter, she is already set. What’s up with the American accent, I thought that she was Jamaican?

got da? she can blow for age shes jus gonna get better wit time im all for education but da* weres the support black people kids her age is gettin pregnant breakin into cars and smokin weed

comma after black people

I agree with focusing on education first. Her mom has a very unique voice & I think she would be trying to follow in footsteps a little too big to fit, but then who knows. I haven’t heard anyone with a voice like Lauryn Hill!!

I think she did good,so all I have to say is good luck to her,if thats what she want to do then let her do it.You grown a$$ folks on here puttin a child down,thats why our kids out here killin each other because of dumb ass grown folks saying what they are saying.For 1MackDiamond how could u say that,that just show how ignorant you are as a BLACK person.

Shes a cute girl and looks alot like lauren.I know sometimes what happens is some singers take time tot grow into their voices.she may not grow into hers to later in life..but I can hear something in her voice that says to me with practice,lessons and direction from her mother,she may grow to have a very lovely distinctive voice.all of her own.somethings their its just not developed yet.

cutie kid but let’s be real people everything isn’t for everyone…..In the you tube shot she looks like she doesn’t even look like she really feeling what she’s doing………..prayer people

Wow she look just like a light skin version of her mother…just as pretty as she can be just like her mama….as far as her voice..you can tell she got it, and her melodyis pretty, its just somebody need to get her to practice more so her lungs can get better….like beyonce daddy did her and the girls from destiny child (with out that running for 5 miles every morning while they had to sing will running ..that might be a little to harsh..lol)or joe jackson with the jackson 5 and janet (naw i take that back too…they just nuts..lol) but once she get older i think yall gonna have another little lauren hill on yall hands.

she can sing but need to work on it hard,where is her mom i would not have post that s**t

sweetie you shoot for your dreams if your dreams is to sing then you sing ok.You have good vocals just need a little more voice lessons and my dear you got it you are your mom legacy . Also your own may god be with you on this journey of yours peace and love!!!!!!

This is offensive. She can sing. Just not well.

people, lets be mindful that this is a child. People are so dang on cinical. at any rate, baby do what your heart desires. if you are asking for an opinion, your voice could use a little shaping but all u need is a coach for that and i am sure your mother is all ears. good luck with your dreams sweetie.

she can sing but she need a singing couch

Lol @ “a singing couch”. What the f**k she gone do with a couch that sings? darby770333, you mixed up ‘coach’ with ‘couch’ numbskull.

Well she actually can sing she just needed training if anyone remember Lauryn was booed off the Apollo when she was young and then later she turned out to a great singing, You don’t know what God has for this child to do and first off she was singing nervous which makes your voice shaky…People Kill me and if you can’t hold a tune you should have nothing to say….She will be just fine as long as she get training and strengthen her vocal chords!!!

She’s so pretty. And she’s probably more talented than 90% of artists out there now. She has a bright future ahead of her. I wish her the best.

NOT SURE BUT SOMETHING SEEMS WRONG WITH HER FACIAL EXPRESSIONS LIKE WHEN SHE STARTED THE VIDEO SHE WAS MEAN MUGGIN SOMEONE AND I DIDN’T SEE ANYONE ELSE IN THE ROOM.SHE IS ADORABLE AND WITH TRAINING SHE CAN BE GREAT. I’LL PRAY FOR THIS LITTLE ANGEL.

she has GREAT VOICE!! it needs tuning then viola!!!

ok, i know yall love lauryn hill, but um no…….that gurl cant sing……..stop lying….she need to concentrate on her books……singing? NO

Her voice sounds strong. I like the raspy sound it’s similar to her mom’s voice. I wish she would have been more confident in the video. No need to hold back girl; you got the voice, you got the look, go for it!

she has potential, keep at it youngin never let someone tell you “you can’t”.

I SOOOOOOOOOOOOO AGREE WITH KARAMEL KISS!!! SHE CAN NOT SINGGGGGGGGGG OHHHHHH NO MY EARS ARE STILL BLEEDING UUGGHH

She has potential, but she’s young and clearly she’s nervous and a little awkward, I think if she put more into it, sang louder and with more confidence, then she’d really have it.

she must’ve gotten her talent from her daddy cause it didnt come from Lauren. She can sing in the church choir…..BUT no solos

She has potential,she just needs vocal training to control her voice. Her choice of song for her voice wasn’t good either.

i hear a lil lauryn in her, i think she has potential…

Close call, but NO cigar
…just keep trying and remember practice makes perfect ;)

You have to be kidding me right? Please let me wake up from this nightmare. My dog sounds better than her. She can’t even carry a note. A word of advice Lauryn. Keep your child in school and exploit some of her other talents. I’m sure she will have some in the academic arena and contribute to the world in a profession through education. Wha a waste of camera time.

just to remind you guys when lauryn Hill was at the apollo at age (13) she was booed!!!!!…( its on youtube) she was not all that great BUT you can hear that she had little potential and zero training. now look at her…So with dedication and years of practice and a good coach… her daughter will be just like her mother BUT she have to train to get that voice out

She has potential…. Anyone out there singing today or in any profession will tell you they had to practice a lot and more than usual. She will be okay. I won’t say any names but I remember a young lady singing in Stone Mountain, Ga. at rehearsal about 16 years ago. She had potential and now today she’s sounds great and is making many hit songs. For those who are saying no today will remember this tomorrow.

I have to say she has potential with the right training, dedication, and will she can be really good. You can hear the voice at this early in her life. She will have to grow into being more confident. She has a voice, she just don’t know how to sing yet. She will learn to sing from the stomach instead of just out of her mouth.

She sucks!!!!!

I listened. The girl has a good foundation. Just like any 12 year old not yet developed she’s shakey. I grew up pentecostal with a ton of people who started out like this. And now they’re performing in various venues and sought after in the gospel industry. She can sing, she just hasn’t fully developed yet.

And for all the naysayers. If any of you are familiar with the Clark sisters, Karen Clark did a song called the will of God with her 9 year old daughter Kierra Sheard. At the time I heard the girl’s voice I wasn’t impressed, matter of fact I thought she sounded pretty bad. Now she wales better than her mother and my face is cracked. I didn’t understand then that her voice was “developing” and being trained.

The voice is just like any other muscle, it must be exercised and developed. And in 10 years the same people saying NO will be the same ones supporting her. There’s a difference between not “knowing” how to sing and not being able to. She’ll learn and be a sensation in a few years. It’ll be interesting to see the reaction then.

Stop hating. And stop acting like you’re experts. Half of us can’t sing this well.

She has potential…..She certainly does not suck. If she really wants it, she can certainly make it happen. And can I just say this, she is 12! Some of these comments are just cruel.Get yourself together, and remember that you are judging a child. Damn!

She has potential. She’s still young so she has time to work on it. It looks like she was nervous or not confident enough. I felt like she was holding back. She so pretty, she just has to work on the vocals.

Not all children of singers can sing.. But we all know it’s not what you know it’s who you know. However, good luck to her tho.

Needs work, but that was really cute though.

EVERYBODY THAT SAID THAT SHE HAS POTENTIAL, DONT MEAN A DAMN THING! LOL. SHE COULD END UP BEING A LAWYER FOR ALL YALL KNOW! LOL. POTENTIAL MY ASS! LOL.

Wow I cant believe she’s 12 a;lready. That means Lauren Hills oldest is a teenager! I know that she wants to sing, but can she sing, thats the qeustion. I’m sure that Lauren will be very protective of her, because she knows what the industry is like.

she’s not twelveteen stupid

@Supremelydyvuh29 I like how you told it!!!

And, to add… she want to be a singer like her mom, but those are just videos that she posted on her YouTube channel! She’s just doing her little kid thang that all the rest of them do (it kind of look like she’s sneaking to be on YouTube, I don’t think her parents even know she is on there)! She’s a very smart little girl, just like her mother! With direction she will be a little fire cracker on the music scene (the second coming of L. Boogie), but like someone else said she think she want to sing now, but later as she mature, she may find herself wanting to study law and become a lawyer! But all you d*ck head b*tches that can’t carry a note your damn selves, give her a break! She’s just being a kid having fun on the internet!

You can hear that she has a tone similar to her mom and she can sing, just need training!!!

Well, bearing in mind she is only 12 years old, I think people may have expected her to belt out a tune like her mom. Did it sound good? No, but I did not expect it to. She’s a baby. My children didn’t sound good singing anything at that age either, lol. How many of us listened to and went to our childrens performances and we know they sounded God awful! But to a mother or parents it’s angels music. Give the little lady a break remember she’s just a kid. Very child has potential. If she wants a music career, she’s in good hands. Heck we’ve all heard many of adults singing (American Idol for example) that would put this child in a good spot, lol. Come on people stop being so mean. Sing your heart out sweety and ignore the evil people!

No no no….. potential? At 12 you can spot talent. you guys really need to stop playin……..

I didn’t even listen to it but I guess I will take your word for it. LOL

well if she follows mom or not, please comb that childs head! a hot mess! take her to a hair dresser please something!give her a little cute do, to go with her cute little face lol.

To sooooodamsexy:

I’m just wondering what’s wrong with the daughter’s hair. I didn’t see the video because it’s been deleted but in the picture, I do not see anything wrong. Is it because she’s not wearing weave as you are? Is it because she does not have a relaxer? The daughter looks ten times better than you and I’m more than happy to see a black woman who is not insecure with what she was born with. Black women need to realize that relaxers and weaves do not make them better looking. Most look like fools, especially the women who wear weave, which is never close to your own hair or features.

I could be wrong but what I got from the video that she is kid making a youtube video having fun. I don’t see her as aspiring to make any albums or be a singer. Just a kid having fun with a camera. Just because she is Lauryn Hill’s daughter we expect her to have a skill or born inate talent that took Lauryn Years to perfect. No I remmeber when I was kid girls song love longs and us boys rap. Some of us had natural talent who never made it into the rap game or singing. An others had no talent who end making careers. But the key is practice. Either way this young girl will have to practice. Learn from professionals like Lauryn did and get experience. But then again who’s to say she wants a career in music. She is a kid going to school living life. So we shouldnt be so quick to twist her youtube videos into something more than what it is. There are tons of people on youtube singing. Many adults on there singing who sound worst than her. But they are doing it for fun.

We as black folks are so critical of one another over dumb stuff

One black woman was talking bad about the girls hair. Wow really thats all you see? Personally I saw all of the girls videos and her hair looks fine to me.

But I agree with many others that we should encourage her if she decides to become a singer or actor. Anyway she can still go to school an make more money. There were plenty of children singers. Even Usher was singing at 15. So if her song doesn’t sound good to you it dont matter…

As for her being like her mother. I dont think so. Lauryn Hill is my Generation. Her Daughter will be for the next Generation. She should not try an be nothing like Lauryn Hill she should evolved an be her own person. Much like Damian Marley is for me in comparison to Bob Marley which is my elders generation. I love Damian Marley album Confrotation. But I cant really get into Bob Marley stuff. So she will be fine if she decides to become a singer because she wont be singing to you and me. But to those people who are her age and younger. The Younger Generation to her will love her. When she is in her twenties teenagers will love hear her sing. So give Selah Marley some inspiration, support, encouragement. Save the critiquing to her trainers!

lol @ 77-grln the video got deleted so i couldnt hear it – i wonder why ur “friend” dint leave a comment! lmao

aww she is too cute..i think she is gud n can get betta with practice..never crush a child’s dream…

I didn’t see the video either, but LOVE the pic of her; she’s so pretty!! I do, however, have a REAL problem with a so- called adult using this forum to attack a 12 yr old girl..

if you don’t like her hair, don’t look!! it takes a really big, really secure in herself woman to verbally attack a child.. did that make you feel better, sooooodamUNsexy?!
