Lauryn Hill wrote and produced the track “A Rose is Still A Rose” for Aretha Franklin’s 36th (lawd!) album of the same name, and she can be heard lending her vocals to the song as well. It was a great collabo to help Franklin connect with a much younger fan base, and who knew breakups could make you want to dance?
