Ms. Lauryn Hill is postponing the rest of her The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 2023 tour dates due to “serious vocal strain.”
In a statement, she revealed that she has been suffering from her vocal strain for the past month. “I made it through each show by taking prescribed prednisone, but this can be detrimental to the body when taken in large amounts over long periods of time. In order to prevent any long term negative affect on my voice and my body, I need to take time off to allow for real vocal recovery so that I can discontinue the medication completely,” Ms. Hill said in a statement via Instagram.
“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. The Return of the Fugees has been powerful and amazing—those who’ve witnessed it can testify,” she also wrote. “The tour itself reminds us the artists, and the audiences alike of earlier, perhaps less complicated times when ‘It could all be so simple…’ or ‘Ready Or Not, here I come!’ were on repeat on the airwaves.”
She further added that the shows that were cancelled this year will be rescheduled for early 2024, and that fans can expect more dates in both the US and overseas next year.
Elsewhere in music, RZA spoke to Hypebeast for the 30th anniversary of 36 Chambers.
