Lauryn Hill Adds New Dates To ‘The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill’ 25th Anniversary Tour

Lauryn Hill Adds New Dates To 'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill' 25th Anniversary Tour

Lauryn Hill has announced a series of new dates to her The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 25th anniversary tour.

The artist added a total of 10 new dates to her tour starting mid-November and will perform in Vancouver, San Francisco, Detroit, St. Louis, Atlanta, Nashville, Charlotte, Tampa, Miami and Boston until mid-December, with Fugees confirmed as the North American co-headliners following their recent reunion at the 2023 Global Citizen Festival. Hill opened up about the importance of the tour, the extension of the dates and the undeniable lasting impact of both Miseducation 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.”

Fellow Fugees members Wyclef Jean and Pras also shared a few words. “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,” Jean said, with Pras stating, “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.”
