Earlier this week, Lauryn Hill and The Fugees cancelled their tour with YG Marley, three days before it was to start. A reason for the cancellation wasn’t given at the time — ticketholders received emails about it, and the Ticketmaster listings were updated — but now Lauryn has shared a message on Instagram addressing it, and clarifying that her scheduled shows in Europe and the UK “ARE MOVING FORWARD as planned.”

“Last year, I faced an injury that necessitated the rescheduling of some of my shows,” it reads. “Regrettably, some media outlet’s penchant for sensationalism and clickbait headlines have seemingly created a narrative that has affected ticket sales for the North American portion of the tour. The trust and faith I have in my intentions and my commitment to my art seem to have been overshadowed by this unfortunate portrayal.”

Lauryn continues:

The audiences in the UK and Europe not only haven’t seen the Miseducation Anniversary performance yet, they also haven’t seen the Fugees perform together in over 25 years!

Performing for my fans, is a profound exchange of energy and emotion that excites me every time. Every show is a piece of my expression and testament to our connection and shared love for music. I can assure you that no one is more disappointed about not being able to perform than I am.

Know that I am not only grateful for those who appreciate and support my art, but that I FIGHT and push through all kinds of resistance to put together experiences that mean something for all of us. I love being able to bring these performances to you!

I appreciate your understanding. We’re looking forward to performing at the shows in the UK and Europe in October — and for our fans in North America, when these unforeseen circumstances are resolved, we’ll be back in full force…

With Love, Respect and Honesty,
MLH

Lauryn had postponed 2023 shows because of “serious vocal strain,” and The Fugees cancelled their reunion tour early in 2022 after postponing it in October of 2021.
