Lauryn Hill Does it LIVE after 3 Years of Nada Enchilada – She’s still got it

According to Billboard.com, Lauryn Hill surprised concertgoers at the Raggamuffin Music Festival in New Zealand. The singer, who hasn’t performed live in over three years, entertained the audience with her hit song “Doo Wop (That Thing).” Does she still have it? Check out the performance below.

The Fugees performed on 2004 at Dave Chappelle’s Block Party in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn. They headlined a bill that included a star-studded cast of hip-hop celebrities. The concert featured Hill’s nearly a cappella rendition of “Killing Me Softly”. The event was recorded by director Michel Gondry and was released on March 3, 2006 to mostly positive reviews.

Hill has been slowly working on a new album and in 2004 shot a music video. The album had a slated street date of November 2005, and neither it nor the music video have been released. It was also reported that as of 2003, Columbia Records had spent more than $2.5 million funding Hill’s new album, mostly spent on installing a recording studio in the singer’s Miami apartment and flying different musicians around the country.

In June 2007, Sony records said though Hill has “consistently recorded over the past decade” and has what amounts to “a library of unreleased material in the vault”, she had recently re-entered the studio “with the goal of making a new LP.” Later that same year, Think Differently music quietly released a 22 track compilation titled Ms. Hill which featured cuts from The Miseducation, various soundtracks contributions and other “unreleased” songs. It features guest appearances from D’Angelo, Rah Digga and John Forté. It is unclear if the album is sanctioned by the artist — many of the songs are obviously in unfinished format and clock in at under one minute — but it is currently listed on AllMusic and Amazon.
