Music: MTV2 Presents Unplugged 2.0: Lauryn Hill
"I used to be a performer," Hill says as she launches into two hours of long-awaited new material. "I really don't consider myself a performer so much anymore. I'm just, sharing." Hill shares her problems dealing with fame and at times looks as if she may not make it through her 14-song set. But the sweetness of her voice and flashes of brilliance in Dylanesque songs such as Mr. Intentional and Oh, Jerusalem seem to pull her back--a reminder that no matter what she says, she's a performer after all.
