Ms. Lauryn Hill Is Curating A Special Performance Featuring Wyclef Jean, Busta Rhymes and Doechii

The Grammy-winning artist is leading a music festival in Florida.

Florida will soon be getting a special performance curated by Ms. Lauryn Hill.

The Grammy-winning artist is leading a “special diaspora calling” set that’ll also feature Wyclef Jean, Hill’s son, YG Marley, Busta Rhymes, Doechii and others at this year’s Jazz in the Garden Music Festival in Miami Gardens, Florida. The festival is from March 8-9.

The performance will take place on the first day of the event, with the festival describing it as “a one-of-a-kind set you won’t see anywhere else” on its social media account.

Single-day tickets and tickets for both days are available for purchase on the festival’s website. Along with Hill and her curated set, the event will also have performances from Xscape, Coco Jones, New Edition, Toni Braxton, Beenie Man and more.

Recently, Hill and Jean reunited to perform at Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary. The pair went through the Fugees’ classic version of “Killing Me Softly,” as well as “Lost Ones,” “Ex-Factor” and “911.”

Pras is noticeably absent from the upcoming Florida performance and was not present for the SNL performance. Last year, he sued Hill for fraud, breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty and refusal to permit an audit of the Fugees’ shortened reunion tour last year.

At the time, Hill addressed Pras’ lawsuit in a press statement, saying, “Despite his attacks, I am still compassionate and hope things work out for him.”
