Update (8/16): Lauryn Hill has again canceled her 25th anniversary tour.
After postponing the remaining dates for her 25th anniversary tour celebrating The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill with the Fugees, Lauryn Hill has announced new dates for her revamped tour. Hill released a statement back in November stating that she had been “battling serious vocal strain” and that rescheduled dates for 2024 would be coming.
The tour will restart this summer making a stop in Charlotte on August 18 at PNC Music Pavilion with Wyclef Jean and Pras Michel of the Fugees along with reggae singer YG Marley; the son of Hill and former Miami Hurricanes football player, Rohan Marley.
Hill will perform songs from The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, which was recently named Apple Music’s best album of all time, with hits like “Doo Wop (That Thing),” “Ex-Factor,” “Everything Is Everything,” and “Lost Ones.” Hill’s debut studio album released in 1998, The Miseducation, won multiple Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year in 1999, making Hill the first woman to receive five in one night. The album has sold over 20 million copies worldwide, and has been certified diamond by the RIAA.
Hill will also reunite with the multi-talented Wyclef Jean and Pras for a Fugees set, performing songs from their classic 1996 album, The Score, which featured hits like “Killing Me Softly,” “Fu-Gee-La,” and “Ready or Not.”
YG Marley is best known for his 2023 single, “Praise Jah in the Moonlight,” which reached No. 34 on the Billboard Hot 100, making him the sixth member of the Marley family to enter the charts.
Hill last performed in Charlotte in 2017, also cancelling two dates in North Carolina (Charlotte and Raleigh) in 2018 for her 20th anniversary tour for The Miseducation.
Artist presale for the tour will begin Wednesday, June 26 at 10 a.m. (code: MLH) and tickets will go on sale to the public starting Friday, June 28 at 10 a.m.
