Lauryn Hill is currently touring America to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of her debut solo album 'The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill'. She has also cancelled a whole bunch of dates. This is a common theme for her as it was when she regrouped and toured with the Fugees. All fans that have purchased tickets expecting Lauryn to be 1. On Time and 2. To give you the best concert experience of your life are expecting too much from her. You ain't been listening properly.
So Lauryn's touring issues began with the Fugees when they regrouped in 2005 for a reunion tour. To expect Lauryn to regroup with her ex-band mates while one of these band mates (Wyclef) was her ex married lover who she had an affair with while the band were at their height of success and their not be any turbulence on tour is expecting too much. Is reaching far too high. And as I said at the beginning you aint been listening properly.
So, the 20th Anniversary of one of the greatest albums of all time roles around and a tour of North America and Canada is announced. Guess what? She starts turning up late and cancelling gigs and fans are whining about it. To these fans I quote Miss Hill
" My world it moves so fast today The past it seems so far away And life squeezes so tight that I can't breathe And every time I've tried to be What someone else thought of me So caught up, I wasn't able to achieve"
To the fans lucky enough to 1 Get tickets, 2. Go to the show just remember why you bought the album 20 years ago and either enjoy it or not, either way, just remember.
