Ms. Lauryn Hill is hitting the road with the Fugees in honor of the 25-year anniversary of her landmark album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, for her first tour since 2020’s Ms. Lauryn Hill Live in Concert trek.

Said Hill of the impact of her album: “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. 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.”

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 25th Anniversary Tour kicks off at Mystic Lake in Minneapolis, Minn., on Sept. 8. Reggae star Koffee will open on her stops in Australia Oct. 3 and Oct. 5, while Fugees (Hill, Wyclef Jean and Pras) will reunite for their first tour in years to co-headline all U.S. and Canadian dates. There are currently 17 total dates announced for the tour, which currently plans to wrap at Climate Pledge Arena in Seattle on Nov. 9.
