Watch: Lauryn Hill Stuns Fans In Connecticut

Published: Monday 19th Dec 2011 by David

Nights ago, ‘Zion‘ performer Lauryn Hill took to The Mohegan Sun Arena to perform a plethora of her oft admired classics for fans in Connecticut.

Following her well publicized set at the  Coachella Festival earlier on this year, this performance arrives months before the vocalist fulfills a number of European tour dates in the earlier part of 2012.

Watch below…


Now this is a performer.

Yes,  with only one solo album to her name, Lauryn’s material is a reminder that quality will always trump quantity.

Only time will tell if  coming years will see the arrival of ‘The Miseducation‘s follow up.

Either way, kudos to Hill for delivering such a fine tuned performance this time around.

    All Hail The QUEEN !

    Nicki Should Take NOTE, Of How To Perform On Stage And Have Some Stage Presence !

    I’m here for Lauryn. No need for all the unnecessary histrionics like certain other R&B acts. Authentic soul is so refreshing as opposed to manufactured.

    Why?

    Beyonce always delivers.

    Try another artist who comes late on stage like Lauryn but can’t perform like Lauryn or Beyonce.

    love lauryn, but she is talking through that performance of zion…not really singing…

  9. Josh December 19, 2011

    Killing me softly.
    im listening to that song right now,
    i havent heard it in forever! Soooo good..

  10. hee hee hell December 19, 2011

    lauryn hill has been gone for awhile and while she was gone beyonce was here singing without soul and emotion . still waiting for haters .. every celeb has em.

  11. IWasInLoveWithSagitarrius December 19, 2011

    bloody husband snatcher.
    Im surprised Alicia Keys wasn’t up there with her singing ‘I’ve Got Your Man’.

  12. WHUT December 19, 2011

    @HEE HEE HELL her true soul gives me life. Some have that true soul innate and some have to manufacture it. It is what it is.

  13. MsAdkinsIfYourNasty December 19, 2011

    A Beyonce stan talking about morals?
    Can you say copyright?

  14. Josh December 19, 2011

    @hehehe
    Why are you trying to start something with Bey fans.

    You were the one to bring up Beyonce on this post, even before her fans
    Im the biggest bey fan and i still enjoy Lauryn a lot.

    So this Bey fan isnt hatin on lauryn, just you.

  15. IWasInLoveWithSagitarrius December 19, 2011

    Copyright? Yes I can say it and so can Salaam Remi- you know- since hes the one Lauryn Pill tried to stiff out of credits for the material he wrote on her ONLY album.

    And why are u coming for me, you’re an Adele stan.

    But since you’re here Ive got a joke for you.

    What do you call a fat computer?

    A Delle

  16. MsAdkinsIfYourNasty December 19, 2011

    Fat jokes?
    Keep on makin em, because Adele’s sales for 21 are JUST as fat she is and that’s just the way her label like it.

    Sony on the other hand must be spinning on their tits with the horror with the way 4closure has done. What is it now- not even 2 million copies sold worldwide? LOOOL.

  17. hee hee hell December 19, 2011

    all i’m saying is that beyonce is fake ,she is not even a soul r&b singer but the meadia acts like shes the next aretha frankin or lauryn hill. I said what i said because i’m stopping beyonce stans from hating on everyone like they do everyday, they hate to see another black woman make moves in the industry . go ahead bring up beyonces 16 grammys but lauryn hill ‘s album went 8 times platinum almost diamond in the us. lAURYN HILL HAS 8 GRAMMYS AND IF SHE NEVER STOPPED SHE WOULD HAVE MORE THAN BEYONCE . I THINK LAURYN HILL IS ONE OF THE MOST SOULFUL SINGERS IN R&B .

  18. YOOSONDALOOSE December 19, 2011

    Doo Wop and Lost Ones were so good, wish she performed ‘Ex Factor’

    No one was talking about beyonce…. except you. so what do you mean you were trying to stop them from hating on lauryn… people will hate on who they choose to hate, you cant fix that. and by posting snide comments to bey fans, of course we will reply back and start s***…

    “I said what i said because i’m stopping beyonce stans from hating on everyone like they do everyday”
    except you were hatin on beyonce even before anyone said her name on this post…. hmmm.
    not okay for others to hate on someone, but okay for you..

    JUST SAYIN. not trying to be mean or start a fight..

  20. TRUTH_HERTZ December 19, 2011

    The most amazing thing about you ppl is that you’ll take a positive post and turn it into something negative. You have nothing to do with your time other than bring someone else down…well, not really…

    We’re on here just putting each other down…

    Talk about copyright…as an artist…I can say if you want to have a conversation about it…learn about it first.

    Every artist borrows from other artists. There’s a word for it and it’s not stealing. Look it up. There’s nothing new under the sun. I assume that people who make the vile and negative comments are all people under the age of 25. If you’re above the age of 25, making dumb comments, isn’t it time to grow up.

    You don’t have to point out that someone doesn’t have soul. The very people that you credit for having soul are the same people who sing Beyonce’s praises.

    Educate yourselves. There’s room for all of these women to be stars.
    There isn’t much room for haters…we’re at capacity.

  27. Bey Fan… December 19, 2011

    I love L-Boogie ….. this industry needs her. MisEducation and UNplugged are two of my all time favorite albums.

    She is a true hip-hop icon. love this woman

    *goes to play Peace of Mind*

  28. Bey Fan… December 19, 2011

    Why is Beyonce even being mention??? WTF??? Ughhhhh.

  29. arie December 20, 2011

    True artist, Lauryn let’s her work do the talking, she does not need media coverage to be big. She is a class act, she is hiphop, she is RnB, she is Soul, she is most defenately music. True queen (I’ll let you pick the genre).

  30. Cheri December 20, 2011

  31. cdee12120 March 3, 2012
