Lauren Hill On Deck W/ Mis-Education Tour.

Lauryn Hill is hitting the road this summer to celebrate the 20th anniversary of her album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, which was released in August 1998.

She will be revisiting her critically acclaimed solo album with a North American tour that begins on July 5 in Virginia and includes two Canadian stops.

The first Canadian stop is in Toronto on July 18 at the Budweiser Stage and the second is in Vancouver on Sept. 14 at the Festival Lawn at Deer Lake Park.

”This album chronicled an intimate piece of my young existence. It was the summation of most, if not all, of my most hopeful and positive emotions experienced to that date. I loved and believed deeply in my community’s ability to both love and heal itself provided it received the right amount of support and encouragement,” said the Grammy winner, 42, in a press release for the tour on Tuesday.

She added: “Our world today, both complex and changing, is in need of the balance between moral fortitude and cathartic expression. I hope the love and energy that permeated this work can continue to inspire change with love and optimism at the helm.”

A portion of the proceeds from Hill’s tour “go towards the MLH Foundation, which directly contributes support for education, health, agriculture, technology, and community-based businesses and development initiatives throughout the Diaspora.”
