Social Criticism in Lauryn Hill's 'Doo Wop (That Thing)'
Lauryn Hill's song 'Doo Wop (That Thing)' is an empowerment anthem and a sharp social critique, released in 1998 as part of her acclaimed album 'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill'. The song addresses themes of self-respect, sexuality and the dangers of being carried away by appearances and materialism.
In the first verse, Hill speaks directly to women, warning them about the dangers of allowing themselves to be used by men who are only interested in 'that thing'. She criticizes the idea that women must conform to standards of beauty and behavior in order to be accepted or loved, mentioning 'hair weaves like Europeans' and 'fake nails done by Koreans' as examples of how women are pressured to conform to external standards. The artist also references religious and historical figures, such as Jezebel, to illustrate the consequences of straying from one's own principles and values.
The second verse is directed at men, criticizing those who prioritize material possessions and status over their responsibilities and relationships. Hill calls out toxic behaviors such as domestic violence and irresponsible fatherhood, and questions how these men can hope to succeed in life if they are not right on the inside. The song ends with a dialogue that reflects on the difference between love and being in love, suggesting that true love goes beyond the surface and accepts a person as they are. 'Doo Wop (That Thing)' is a powerful reminder that self-respect and integrity are key, and that we should be aware of the pitfalls of materialism and objectification in interpersonal relationships.
So...

The first time Mente Organica's tunes came to our ears we were just going wow......

Born in Colombia, music flew out of the Andes directly into his blood. Since then his heart and mind is feeded by endless creativity and beauty.

We love how he builds bridges between traditional South American music and modern electronic Music, switching fast, playing with the tempo, his flutes and the Guitar. Real, joyful and deep.

It got really interesting when we involved Ninze & Okaxy, Daniel Imhof and Anton Feine & Colour you Mind into his Music. All of them created very unique Reworks gliding with the shadow of the condor.

Thank you all for your passion! <3

Wisdom is knowing we are nothing. Love is recognizing we are everything. Our lives move in The Space Between.

Track List: Coming Soon.

Presenting the seventeenth variation of The Space Between Guest Mix podcast series with Isla Espiral (@isla-espiral). My goal behind this series is to showcase artists and good friends I've been fortunate to connect with throughout my music journey, those who create and share from the deepest part of their soul and whose musical storytelling abilities bring us deep into the space of feeling.
-----------
I met Isla on Lake Atitlan in Guatemala where she was born and raised. Her musical presence has continued to be a gift to the community and a staple at Tribal Village full moon parties. Her sets have been some of the few I fully resonate with and enjoy dancing to from start to finish, with our musical tastes very much on the same wavelength. It's been an honor to get to know her and watch her musical journey unfold.
