Lauryn Hill is gearing up to hit the road with The Fugees once again, and she’s bringing her son YG Marley along for the rise this tie around.
The New Jersey legend announced the ‘The Celebration Continues Tour’ in an Instagram post on Monday (June 24), extending last year’s 25-year anniversary celebration of The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.

Set to kick off on August 9 in Tampa, Florida, the 22-date trek will make its way through the United States before heading to Europe in October, where it will conclude in Amsterdam.
Pre-sale begins Wednesday (June 26) at 10 am, following which general admission will go live on Friday (June 28) at the same time.
Attendees at this year’s Coachella festival got a sample of what Hill’s forthcoming tour will feel like, as she surprised the crowd at the first weekend when she popped into YG Marley’s set and brought Wyclef Jean out as well.
Roughly 15 minutes into the Marley heir’s set, his mother joined in and ran through a number of her solo hits before performing some Fugees hits with Clef.
“Ex-Factor,” “Lost Ones,” “Killing Me Softly,” “Ready or Not” and “Fu-Gee-La” all made it to the setlist, with YG filling in for Pras‘ parts on “Ready or Not.” Later in the set, they also brought out Busta Rhymes and Spliff Star.
Last month, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill was inducted into the 2024 Grammy Hall Of Fame alongside De La Soul‘s 3 Feet High and Rising and more.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 tally upon its release and went on to win five Grammy Awards: Best New Artist, Best R&B Song, Best Female R&B Vocal Performance and Best R&B Album.
