Later this year, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill marks its 25th anniversary, and Lauryn Hill has revealed plans for a special concert in honor of her groundbreaking debut album. A quarter of a century since its release, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill continues to be celebrated as a Hip-Hop masterpiece, with an upcoming concert dedicated to the influential record. Lauryn Hill’s debut solo album, released in 1998, catapulted her to worldwide fame, selling 422,624 copies in its first week and earning her numerous awards. She took home five Grammy Awards, including Album of the Year, becoming the first woman to win five or more Grammys in a single evening. The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill also made history as the first Hip-Hop album to win an Album of the Year Grammy. This week, Lauryn Hill announced a special concert to commemorate the Diamond-certified album’s 25th anniversary, scheduled for later this summer. The exclusive performance will be held at the Wolf Trap venue in Vienna, Virginia, on June 9. Tickets are currently available for purchase. Although she doesn’t frequently perform, Lauryn Hill has several other shows lined up before the significant anniversary. Fans can catch her co-headlining the Essence Festival’s 50 Years of Hip-Hop celebration in New Orleans over the Fourth of July weekend, where she will perform The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. She is also part of the star-studded lineup for the annual Roots Picnic from June 2-4, where she will headline and perform her iconic album to celebrate its 25th anniversary. In addition, Lauryn will make a special appearance at Mary J. Blige’s Strength of a Woman Festival & Summit in Atlanta, GA on May 13.
