Ms. Lauryn Hill Is Hitting the Road With Fugees — Here’s How to Score Last-Minute Tickets

By John Lonsdale

John Lonsdale

Ms. Lauryn Hill released one of the best albums of all time nearly 25 years ago this year with The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill , and now the Grammy winner has taken her 1998 solo project’s songs on the road — along with a Fugees reunion — for a multi-city trek that kicked off in September. Following the tour announcement, Hill announced another run of new dates that would extend through December, with stops in Vancouver, Detroit, Atlanta, and Boston.

“ The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill is and was a love song to my parents, my family, my people, my musical and cultural forebears, my teachers, my loves, my Creator,” Hill shared in a statement. “I wrote love songs and protest songs — (still love songs) about the subjects and interests that inspired and moved me. I was confident that what inspired me would resonate with an audience that had been led to believe that songs of that kind could only live in the past.”

Ms. Lauryn Hill & Fugees 2023 Tour Schedule

Taking the number 10 spot on our list of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time , Rolling Stone wrote of Hill’s solo classic: “ Miseducation ’s musical legacy is just as deep; at a time when pop was becoming increasingly slick and digitized in the go-go Nineties, here was an album that showed the commercial appeal of a rawer sound; ‘I wanna hear that thickness of sound,’ Hill said. ‘You can’t get that from a computer, because a computer’s too perfect. But that human element, that’s what makes the hair on the back of my neck stand up. I love that.'”

• View Author Archive

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

Hip-Hop’s most elusive star is returning to the spotlight.

Lauryn Hill just announced she’s embarking on ‘The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 25th Anniversary Tour’ this fall.

That includes stops at New York City’s Global Citizen Festival on Saturday, Sept. 23, Newark, NJ’s Prudential Center on Tuesday, Oct. 17 and Brooklyn’s Barclays Center on Thursday, Oct. 19.

Hill isn’t going it alone either.

The five-time Grammy winner will be bringing her group Fugees to open all U.S. dates on the run from September through November.

No word on whether or not they’ll be performing with her at the Global Citizen Festival .

Want to hear “Everything Is Everything,” “Doo Wop (That Thing),” “I Used To Love Him” and so many more timeless classics live?

You can grab tickets for the highly-anticipated anniversary tour as soon as today.

Although inventory isn’t available on Ticketmaster until Friday, Aug. 25, fans who want to ensure they have tickets ahead of time can purchase on sites like Vivid Seats before tickets are officially on sale.

Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.

They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event.

Lauryn Hill 2023 tour schedule

A complete calendar including all tour dates, venues and links to buy tickets can be found here:

Global Citizen Festival

On Saturday, Sept. 23, Central Park will be the epicenter of the music world when the Global Citizen Festival drops into midtown Manhattan.

Hill is set to headline along with major stars like Red Hot Chili Peppers , Megan Thee Stallion , Stray Kids and Conan Gray.

If you need tickets to the one-day extravaganza, you can scoop them up here .

Lauryn Hill set list

Wondering what Hill will play live?

While we can’t guarantee anything — although it’s likely she’ll perform at least a few tracks from “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill” — here’s an educated guess based on what she played at a recent show:

01.) “Everything Is Everything” 02.) “Superstar” 03.) “When It Hurts So Bad” 04.) “Final Hour” 05.) “Lost Ones” 06.) “Every Ghetto, Every City” 07.) “Ex-Factor” 08.) “To Zion” 09.) “Nothing Even Matters” 10.) “Forgive Them Father” 11.) “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” (Frankie Valli cover) 12.) “I Used to Love Him” 13.) “Tell Him” 14.) “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill” 15.) “Doo Wop (That Thing)”

The above set list comes courtesy of Set List FM .

At all U.S. concerts, Wyclef Jean and Pras Michel will co-headline with Hill.

According to Variety , it’s likely they won’t be touring internationally “presumably because of member Pras Michel’s legal challenges stemming from his recent conviction on international conspiracy charges.”

In September 2021, the South Orange, NJ natives announced a 25th anniversary tour celebrating their album “The Score” but canceled a few months later due to COVID concerns.

Hip-Hop stars on tour in 2023

Hill isn’t the only iconic act back on the road this year.

Here are just five of our favorite rappers from yesteryear performing live these next few months.

•  50 Cent with Busta Rhymes

• Snoop Dogg with Wiz Khalifa

• Wu-Tang Clan with Nas

Plus, on Sept. 15, Mariah Carey, Mary J. Blige and Wu-Tang Clan will headline at NYC’s Madison Square Garden.

Lauryn Hill’s 25th-anniversary tour in NYC: Everything we know so far

“The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill” is turning 25.

Ready to feel very, very old? “The  Miseducation of Lauryn Hill ,” the titular performer's seminal solo debut album, turns 25 years old this month. The 1998 neo-soul record produced classic tracks like "Doo Wop (That Thing)", "Ex-Factor" and "Everything Is Everything" and earned Hill five Grammy awards, making the singer-rapper the first woman to receive that many awards in one night. 

Given the popularity and pedigree of the record, it's no surprise that  Lauryn Hill will celebrate the 25th anniversary of the album that made her a superstar with a US tour this fall, including several stops in the New York area.

“The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill’ is and was a love song to my parents, my family, my people, my musical and cultural forebears, my teachers, my loves, my Creator,” Hill said in a press release. “I wrote love songs and protest songs—(still love songs) about the subjects and interests that inspired and moved me. I was confident that what inspired me would resonate with an audience that had been led to believe that songs of that kind could only live in the past.”

She continued, “I loved music, I loved people, I truly felt grateful to God for my life, and genuinely blessed to have a platform where I could share wisdom and perspective through music. I felt a charge to challenge the idea that certain kinds of expression and/or certain kinds of people didn’t belong in certain places. I loved showing what could work or happen provided there was imagination, creativity, and LOVE leading the way.”

Here’s everything we know so far about Lauryn Hill’s 25th-anniversary tour in NYC:

When is ‘The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill’ 25th-anniversary tour coming to NYC?

After the anniversary tour plays Newark (Lauryn Hill is a Jersey girl, after all) on Tuesday, October 17 at Prudential Center , it will make its way to NYC with a Brooklyn show on Thursday, October 19 at Barclays Center .

Hill will also perform in NYC a month earlier at the Global Citizen Festival in Central Park on Saturday, September 23, alongside Red Hot Chili Peppers, Megan Thee Stallion and more. 

How can I get tickets to the NYC shows?

Tickets for all tour dates will go on sale on Friday, August 25 at 10am local time, with presales beginning on Wednesday, August 23 at 10am. They'll be available on all of the usual platforms: Ticketmaster, SeatGeek, VividSeats, etc. 

How much do tickets cost?

As of press time, tickets for the upper levels at Barclays Center are going for about $75 a pop, whereas a spot closest to the stage in the General Admission Pit will run you back $750. 

Any news on the setlist?

No word yet on the official setlist but given that the tour is commemorating  The  Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, we'd put money down that Hill will perform most, if not all, of the tracks listed on the 16-song album, such as "Lost Ones," "Every Ghetto, Every City" and "Superstar." 

Who will be supporting the tour?

The big question: will Hill be joined onstage by Wyclef Jean and Pras Michel, members of  her former group, the Fugees? The answer is yes. The group played its first show together in 15 years back in September 2021 at NYC's Pier 17 and reunited yet again at the Roots Picnic in Philadelphia this June. The Fugees will support Hill at U.S. dates for the anniversary tour, while Jamaican singer Koffee will take up opening the Australian gigs. 

Where else is Lauryn Hill playing as part of her tour?

Here’s the full list of dates for “ The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill” 25th-anniversary tour: September 8  – Minneapolis, MN @ Mystic Lake September 23  – New York, NY @ Global Citizen Festival October 1  – Gold Coast, AUS @ Promiseland Festival October 3  – Melbourne, AUS @ Rod Laver Arena * October 5  – Sydney, AUS @ Kudos Banks Arena * October 7 – Auckland, NZ @ Eden Festival October 17 – Newark, NJ @ Prudential Center # October 19 – Brooklyn, NY @ Barclays # October 21 – Washington, DC @ Capital One Arena # October 23 – Philadelphia, PA @ Wells Fargo Arena # October 26 – Toronto, ON – Scotia # October 28 – Chicago, IL @ United Center # October 30 – Fort Worth, TX @ Dickies Arena # November 2 – Denver, CO – Ball Arena # November 5 – Los Angeles, CA @ Kia Forum # November 7  – Oakland, CA @ Oakland Arena # November 9 – Seattle, WA @ Climate Pledge Arena #

Lauryn Hill announces 25th anniversary tour for solo album

The singer will celebrate The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill with a global 17-date tour that will also include Fugees members in the US and Canada

Lauryn Hill is set to embark on a global tour to celebrate the 25th anniversary of her acclaimed solo album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill .

The singer and rapper will perform the entirety of her Grammy-winning album across 17 dates in the US and Canada as well as in Australia and New Zealand. She will also be reunited by fellow Fugees members for her dates in the US and Canada.

Hill’s US dates include Chicago’s United Center, Brooklyn’s Barclays Center and the Kia Forum in Los Angeles. Her first date is on 8 September in Minneapolis.

“The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill is and was a love song to my parents, my family, my people, my musical and cultural forebears, my teachers, my loves, my Creator,” Hill said in a statement. “I wrote love songs and protest songs – (still love songs) about the subjects and interests that inspired and moved me. I was confident that what inspired me would resonate with an audience that had been led to believe that songs of that kind could only live in the past.”

The tour comes after the Fugees were forced to cancel their reunion tour as a result of Covid. Originally announced in 2021 to celebrate the anniversary of Grammy-winning album The Score, it was later cancelled in 2022.

In September 2021, the trio reunited on stage in New York for their first gig in 15 years after keeping fans waiting for three and a half hours.

Hill has made a number of appearances this year already to celebrate the anniversary including at the hip-hop 50th anniversary celebrations in New York City appearing alongside Nas as well as headlining the Roots Picnic festival alongside fellow Fugees.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, featuring hits such as Doo Wop (That Thing), Ex-Factor and Everything Is Everything, debuted at No 1 in the US in 1998, selling 422,000 copies in its first week, a record for a female solo artist.

The album went on to win five Grammy awards, including album of the year.

The North American leg kicks with Fugees kicks off on October 17th in Newark, New Jersey, and also includes stops in Brooklyn, Washington, DC, Philadelphia, Toronto, Chicago, Fort Worth, Denver, Los Angeles, Oakland, and Seattle.

Update: Due to “overwhelming demand,” Hill has announced a new run of shows taking place in November, including dates in Vancouver, San Francisco, Atlanta, Nashville, Miami, Boston, and more.

Tickets are available via StubHub , where orders are 100% guaranteed through StubHub’s FanProtect program. StubHub is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.

Earlier this year, Consequence named The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill the second best hip-hop album of all time .

Fugees previously reconvened in 2021 for their first live performance in 15 years . However, plans for a full-fledged reunion tour were delayed and then canceled due to the pandemic. The upcoming jaunt may be the last chance to see Fugees live, as Pras Michel was  found guilty in late April for his involvement in a billion-dollar Malaysian money laundering scheme. The Fugees co-founding member is currently awaiting sentencing but could face up to 20 years in prison.

Ms. Lauryn Hill is hitting the road . The New Jersey native has announced an international tour celebrating the 25th anniversary of her acclaimed solo debut The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill. At each stop, the 48-year-old is set to perform the album, revisiting the musical sentiment and nostalgia that caused it to resonate with so many fans.

With 17 scheduled shows , the tour will hit arenas around the world, including concerts in Australia, Brooklyn, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, and the singer’s hometown, Newark.

Lauryn Hill’s Strength Of A Woman Fest Performance Was Her Penance

“The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill  is and was a love song to my parents, my family, my people, my musical and cultural forebears, my teachers, my loves, my Creator. I wrote love songs and protest songs — (still love songs) about the subjects and interests that inspired and moved me. I was confident that what inspired me would resonate with an audience that had been led to believe that songs of that kind could only live in the past,” detailed the Grammy Award-winning artist in a statement.

“I loved music, I loved people, I truly felt grateful to God for my life, and genuinely blessed to have a platform where I could share wisdom and perspective through music. I felt a charge to challenge the idea that certain kinds of expression and/or certain kinds of people didn’t belong in certain places. I loved showing what could work or happen provided there was imagination, creativity, and LOVE leading the way.”

Tickets for The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill go on sale to the general public on Friday (Aug. 25) at 10 a.m. local time.

Ms. Lauryn Hill & The Fugees

Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 25th Anniversary Tour

San Francisco will host the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation from Monday, Nov. 13 through Monday, Nov. 20, resulting in a variety of road closures, detours, and changes to transit service. >> Learn More Coming off a triumphant Global Citizen Festival headline set where the 5x Grammy winner surprised fans by bringing out Fugees for part of the show, Ms. Hill has now announced The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 25th Anniversary Tour will be coming to Chase Center on Nov. 17, 2023. Ms. Hill notes the importance of the tour, extending the dates, as well as the lasting impact made by both the album and Fugees: “I’ve almost felt compelled to carry a torch or to keep a light shining regarding the continual performance of the Miseducation album. I believe there’s been a reason for that—and the Fugees coming back together for performances too feels like unfinished business we’re destined to handle. The connections are real and uncanny, and the magic and synergy between us has not been deterred by time. I believe the messages that we and the art we made embody something moving, meaningful and important for us and for the world. We gave voice and image to possibilities that emblazoned so many musical directions after us. As we were inspired, we also inspired countless artists who have shown up to express themselves in this musical space. Both the Miseducation and the Fugees’ material challenged and expanded convention, by paying homage to the past, while richly embracing the present, and emblazoning the trail for the future. We represent not just ourselves but our influences and our peers who took art, culture and inspiration very seriously—- who reshaped the landscape for ourselves and for those who would follow after us. I’m grateful to be able to celebrate this classic material and re-present it to an audience in this time.” Wyclef continues: “I can’t wait to hit that stage with my band mates. No one will wanna miss this. It’s what I call lighting in a bottle.” Pras adds: "Reuniting with Ms. Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean for the Miseducation Tour is a full circle moment. Lauryn's profound lyricism and mastery of hip hop, reggae, and soul created an undeniable masterpiece with The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. Combined with our groundbreaking album The Score, this body of work shaped the soundtrack of a generation. It represented a renaissance of culture, politics, and spirituality in hip hop. I'm honored to reunite on stage and pay tribute to Lauryn's immense talent and timeless music. I look forward to celebrating with fans worldwide who have supported us for over 25 years. This tour is about the power of music to leave an indelible impact." The impact that The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill had on music, fashion, and American and world culture is immeasurable and continues to influence the world's biggest artists. Entered into the Library of Congress in 2015, Ms. Hill and her Diamond-certified album achieved numerous firsts including being the first ever Hip Hop album to receive an Album Of The Year Grammy Award, being the first woman to be nominated for 10 Grammy awards in one year and being the first woman to win 5 Grammys in one night.

New Jersey local Lauryn Hill (born 26 May 1975), is a solo artist, singer-songwriter, rapper, producer and former member of Hip-Hop group The Fugees.

Before her musical talents were unleashed onto the world, Lauryn Hill found moderate success as a young actress, starting alongside Whoopi Goldberg in the feature film “Sister Act 2: Back In The Habit”. However her career changed whilst attending Columbia High School, where she formed a hip-hop group with fellow student, Pras Michel, and his cousin Wyclef Jean, called “Tranzlator Crew” in 1992.

After gaining record label attention through live gigs and demo’s, the group was picked up by Columbia Records. They eventually released their debut album “Blunted On Reality” in 1994 under the now famous moniker of “The Fugees” (in reference to Michel and Jean’s Haitian heritage” Whilst the album struggled commercially and critically due to its “gangsta rap” direction, Hill, under her “L.Boogie” persona caught the attention of critics and fans alike.

When the group was given a second change by label execs, they did not disappoint, and their second album “The Score” was a smash hit, reaching number one on charts around the world, and certified six times platinum, whilst receiving the adulation of music critics for its alternative hip hop sound and politically charged focus. At the center of the groups success was Hill, with her smooth and recognizable singing voice and sharp rap lyrics often standing out on hit tracks such as “Ready or Not” or the Grammy winning “Killing me Softly”.

Following on from the breakout success of the Fugees, all the members decided to take a solo path. Lauryn finally gave the fans what they wanted with the release of her debut solo album “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill” in 1998 an R&B project which featured tracks such as “Doo Wop (That Thing)” which touched on personal subjects such as her failed personal relationship with Wyclef Jean and the pressures of being a young single mother. The album made Hill a superstar, as it received universal acclaim, exceptionally high sales figures and an incredible five Grammy’s including “Best Album”, unprecedented for a Hip-Hop album in the 90’s.

Since her success and the international tour that followed, Hill has kept herself out of the public eye, citing the stress of being a celebrity too much to handle, and has instead focused on raising her six children. Despite her decision, many music fans around the world are hopeful for her much awaited comeback.

Live reviews

After a break in music due to motherhood and imprisonment, former Fugees songstress Lauryn Hill is back on the scene proving that she still has that thing. Ms. Hill's return to the stage has been like a box of chocolates -you never know what you're going to get- but one thing you're always guaranteed is that beautiful, rasping growl that made her the Soul Queen of the 90's.

Ms. Hill has an effortless way of sending you on the most intense roller coaster of emotions. She takes command of the stage and knows exactly which buttons to press to send the crowd's hearts into their throats. We begin our ride with the agonising beauty of "Killing Me Softly," we ascend into the unknown with a cover of The Doors' "Light My Fire," and then we're hurtled into space with Miseducation's "I Used To Love Him" and taken through a loop of Reggae righteousness with "Please Don't Rock My Boat."

Hill finishes the set off with Fugees favourites "Fu-Gee-La," the ultimate crowd-pleaser "Ready or Not" and brings us back to the start with another rendition of "Killing Me Softly." Ms. Hill's live show is one helluva ride that you can't (and don't want to) get off of.

Seeing Ms.Hill live at the Indig02 is like a spicy and complex chicken soup for the soul. She definitely still has that thing on stage and while there's no doubt as to how she earned her place in history, there is doubt as to whether she will be sending us on roller coasters in the future. The only way to listen to Hill is live, no show is ever the same and when she's stripped down to the bare minimum with just a guitar - well, you best hold onto your socks.

Report as inappropriate

Really disappointing concert.

Our ticket said the concert would start at 20h00. Ms Lauryn Hill was on the stage at 22h30.

The warm up acts included two different bands, two stand up comedians and a DJ. The sound cut out for the DJ at one point.

Those standing had their arms up in a cross to protest the lengthy warm up... It was tooooo much. We just wanted to hear Lauryn Hill.

When she finally came on most of the audience booed. People were leaving before the end of her set- no doubt having a long commute home.

During her last song the house lights went up. Then the microphones were cut. She was left talking until her mic was also cut. She hadn't had enough time to finish her set.

Totally bizarre and disappointing. The tickets were expensive - and we got half of a Lauryn Hill concert.

At one point she was talking about "authenticity and respect". Again the audience booed.

I think she is an amazingly talented artist who is unfortunately out of touch with the fact that her fans lead normal lives; including commutes on public transport, babysitting costs, and work the next day. Boring "authentic" facts about everyday life that Ms Lauryn Hill seems to have forgotten.

Her first song had the lyrics "You might have won some but you just lost one..."

I think she might have lost more than one.

Happy childhood memories listening to her work but I would hesitate about going to see her at anything other than a music festival - unless I had no work the next day!!

Lauryn Hill's show (her show only) was fantastic, musically and sound wise it was 9.5 out of 10. The reason why it's not a 10 is because all of the songs were remixed and I would have loved to listen to at least one of the classic versions from beginning till end, not just the chorus.

HOWEVER, I must complain about how long we had to wait to see her perform. 4 hours. 4 FREAKING HOURS. REALLY? when I bought the tickets, I didn't expect to see a festival of 4 different opening acts for 4 hours. It was nowhere in the description, and except for Chakra Kahn, the genre of music of the other bands was completely different. I understand maybe the roots of RnB and Hip Hop could have come all the way from African beats, and I have nothing against African music, but I was not expecting it, and I thought it was really unrelated and out of place. I really didn't like the fact they kept teasing the audience by saying Lauryn was coming out after their song, this happened repeatedly. People were pissed! some were booing, girls were taking their heels off from standing for so long. And it was a Thursday, so some people had to work the next day. The concert ended at 1:30am!

I don't think I'll attend another of her concerts again as much as a fan of The Fugees and Lauryn Hill that I am...I mean I really liked her show separate from all of the factors working against her, I love her music and what she does, but I can only tolerate so much.

“Before I work with Lauryn Hill again, you will have a better chance of seeing Osama Bin Laden and Bush in Starbucks having a latte, discussing foreign policy.” Granted, Pras Michel said that before Bin Laden died, but you get his point; only the most committed optimist would have any real expectation of the Fugees working together again. Instead, fans would be better advised to turn their attentions to Hill’s solo career, under the new moniker of ‘Ms.’ Lauryn Hill (allegedly, her insistence on being addressed as such was one of the contributing factors to the group’s demise.) Whether or not we’ll ever get a proper follow-up to the genre-defining 'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill' remains up in the air; for now, file it alongside D’Angelo’s 'James River' as an R&B record that might never see the light of day. Instead, Hill is focusing on touring, having ironed out some of the difficulties that marred her initial return to the stage in 2007. She’s no longer rushing through her sets at breakneck pace, but continues to reconfigure the classics; check out a haunting new arrangement of ‘Ex-Factor’ on YouTube for proof. With a recent jail term for tax evasion out of the way, she’s lined up her first UK tour in a long, long time for September; recent evidence suggests she’s somewhere close to top form.

On Christmas morning when Lauryn Hill was announced to perform on New Years day I was thrilled. I called all of my friends and we secured VIP table seats and planned an amazing evening.

Our evening was great, but the warning signs about Ms. Hill were there. 1. The negative reviews she's received. 2. The fact that the concert time was pushed back an hour days before she was to perform.

Well, I should have listened to the signs. She was still late! It was almost 11 pm by time she took the stage and when she finally did she didn't great the audience, no Happy New Year, sorry I'm late- nothing! Instead she was directing the band the entire night and came off as completely unprofessional. I felt like we were at a sound check rather than a concert. I was really disappointed.

Of course, she opened with some new songs that no one has heard of, but when she finally performed her classics, she hyped everyone up only to let the mood right back down by performing these buzz kill songs, one was in French, but we couldn't understand what she was saying anyways.

In summary, I won't see her again. She still has all the talent in the world, but her lack of professionalism really killed it for me.

Dallas Show: Was supposed to start at 6:30PM. Opening act started a 7:00, not sure who he was but it was truly boring. DJ can on for about 20 minutes and then a African Band. They sounded pretty good, just was familiar with their music and that was not who came to see. So from ~8:15 we waited and waited and waited while the DJ played music until 10:05PM before Lauren Hill came on..... man this concert was a dud. She only stayed on stage one hour, she ended at 11:05. During they show she is constantly giving instructions to the sound man to make adjustments. Her voice has changed. Her tone is different and didn't hear the vibrato that made her voice especially unique. I would not recommend this concert if you don't already have tickets. I am hearing that this has been the pattern at many stops. Terrible to make us wait for such a short show, many complaints leaving the venue.

An epic night full of good music, good fun & an excellent no nonsense crowd!

The female DJ was phenomenal and she rocked us all, start to finish. It was one big party.

The openers were amazing in their on right and good to hear NY in the house.

Ms Lauryn Hill was strong, powerful & on point all night and took control! She looked simply beautiful! The songs choices and words she had for us all were perfect!

The band and background singers kept it real! Never missing a beat!

Shout out to her guitarist & horn player..both Berklee alumni! We see u!

The visuals & stories projected were soul stirring behind Ms Hill! Thank you!

Thank you for the entire experience!

A night to be remembered forever!

Red Rocks in Colorado is a one of a kind venue.

Every part of the show was sign languaged, which was amazing to watch and so thoughtful!

Best show of my year!

I saw Ms. Lauryn Hill in the Forum koncert hall in Copenhagen, Denmark on her 20-year celebration of her solo album. The sound at the concert were awful, but apart from that, I was happy to hear that she still has a wonderful voice and a unique feel for music and rhythm. Her voice was a little darker than on the album, but still quite amazing; And she compensated by including three amazing support singers.

She lacked a bit of energy on the stage, but still managed to connect with the audience.

One thing I really did not appreciate was how late she showed up and that her second warm up act, DJ Reborn, played party music, that didn't match the atmosphere of Ms. Lauryn Hills music and did so with lacking DJ'ing skills (questionable track transitions etc.). In contrast, the first warm up act, IAMDBB, was great! Great singer and a real charmer!

An upbeat funk band and an on-point nostalgia-inspired Brooklyn DJ were ideal supports before the much-anticipated Lauryn Hill. Upon arrival she created a brilliant atmosphere in The o2 Arena and engaged a sell out crowd with a performance celebrating one of the best albums of all time. Despite changing melodies for several key songs too early in their start, she still retained the powerful messages famously portrayed. Differences to the album were expected from an artist who has essentially played one album for her 20 year solo career, but they never improved on the original recorded songs. She engaged the crowd well with thankful words and her emotion was felt. Spoiler! A beautiful Fugees rendition welcomingly closed a set full of soul, hip hop, positive messages, warmth and nostalgia.

The show started almost 3 hours later than expected and Ms. Lauryn Hill was not in her best shape in the first part of the show. The first tracks she played from The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill were disconstructed and her and the band seemed a bit uncomfortable with the versions of the tracks they were delivering. Ms. Lauryn Hill seemed to be stucked in her head and found difficult to connect with the audience which started to leave the venue right after the first break. However, after Doo woop and her, apparently, deserved break, she returned more inspired and connecting with the audience who returned the energy singing together Zion and some Fugges’ tracks. I will clap forever for her version of “Ready or Not”.

Lauryn Hill Postpones Remaining Tour Dates Due to Vocal Strain and Prescribed Steroids

Lauryn Hill is putting a halt to her anniversary tour after suffering from the nightly use of a numbing steroid to aid her vocal cord injuries.

On Wednesday morning, the five-time Grammy winner took to Instagram to reveal she was taking Prednisone for her vocal strain. Although the medicine aims to help, it is more so a temporary fix that can have long-lasting effects. In order to avoid further complications, Hill said she decided to postpone to the remainder of the tour to an unannounced time.

Popular on Variety

“Being able to tour this album to sold out crowds after 25 years has been an emotional experience! I’ve loved sharing the stage again with Wyclef and Pras,” Hill said in the caption to a video of her performance. “The Return of the Fugees has been powerful and amazing—those who’ve witnessed it can testify.”

Aside from their upcoming stop in Philadelphia this weekend, Hill went on to explain that they will be rescheduling “most of the remaining shows this year” and “the shows that were cancelled this year will be rescheduled for early 2024,” she said.

There is an upside: the tour will be adding new cities to its lineup — including some stops overseas. “We’re working on the new calendar now, and announcing soon,” Hill wrote.

The work, set in Crete in 1200 BCE and telling a story from the Trojan War, shines light on a talented group of singers.
