Girl, you know you better watch out! Lauryn Hill is going on tour.
"The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" singer is marking the 25th anniversary of her debut solo album with a 17-stop international tour. The Fugees will co-headline some of the U.S. stops with her.
Hill's debut album won five Grammys in 1999, including album of the year, the first time a hip-hop album won the coveted award, and it garnered 10 nominations.
"'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," the 48-year-old singer said in a release announcing the news.
"I wrote love songs and protest songs — (still love songs) about the subjects and interests that inspired and moved me," she continued. "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.”
