Ready or not, here Ms. Lauryn Hill comes. To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the seismic-shifting album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, the singer is doo wop-ing all the way Down Under to perform a twin set of Australian arena dates.

We're counting down the days to see the hip-hop icon perform such a landmark album. So while you also bide your time, here’s all you need to know about the upcoming tour.
When is Lauryn Hill in Melbourne?
The Grammy award-winning singer is set to perform in Melbourne’s Rod Laver Arena on October 3, 2023. Ms. Hill will be supported by Jamaican reggae wunderkind Koffee.
What songs can we expect Lauryn Hill to perform?
The neo-soul and R&B album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill is rammed with anthemic songs such as ‘Doo Wop (That Thing)’, ‘Ex-Factor’, ‘To Zion’ and ‘Lost Ones’. Inspired by motherhood, her turbulent time in the Fugees and themes of love and religion, the album made history by becoming the first hip-hop record to win Album of the Year in 1999 (and, get this, she was just 23).
You can expect to hear all these classics and tracks from her time in the Fugees, such as 'Ready or Not’ and ‘Killing Me Softly with His Song’.
