Ms. Lauryn Hill (@mslaurynhill) is a five-time GRAMMY winner and one of the most notable hip-hop, R&B, and fashion/style icons of all time. Not too long ago, she announced The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 25th Anniversary Tour to commemorate her massively influential 1998 debut solo album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, an album that was released 25 years ago to the day this coming Friday.

Lauryn Hill will be performing the album, revisiting the musical sentiment and nostalgia that caused it to resonate with so many fans. The 17-date tour will hit arenas worldwide, including the Kia Forum on Sunday, November 5, 2023 (full dates below). The Fugees will reunite for their first tour in years to co-headline the tour on all US and Canadian dates. Tickets go on sale this Friday, August 25th, at 10 am PT.

Lauryn Hill – The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill album cover art

“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.” – Ms. Lauryn Hill explained her thoughts on the album and its lasting impact

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill’s impact on music, fashion, and American and world culture is immeasurable and continues to influence the world’s most prominent 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.
