Lauryn Hill is known for doing things on her own terms and she's not afraid to take her time. It's been over 25 years since she released her Grammy award-winning debut album, and fans have been waiting patiently for her to drop her follow-up album. Finally, at a recent outing in New York City with her son YG Marley, Lauryn gave us a little teaser about when we can expect new music from her.
TMZ caught up with the mother-son duo and asked YG when we could expect the highly-anticipated album from his mom. With a smile on his face, the 22-year-old replied with a simple but promising "soon". He also hinted that he may make an appearance on the album, but we'll have to wait and see. When Lauryn joined YG in the car, she confirmed that her new album, the long-awaited follow-up to The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, will be coming "soon". This is huge news for fans since Lauryn has only released two albums so far - her live Unplugged album in 2002 and her debut album in 1998.
The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill was a major success, sweeping the 1999 Grammy Awards with five wins, including Album of the Year. At just 23 years old, Lauryn became the youngest Black artist to win this award and her album was the first hip-hop album to take home the top prize. Since then, she's been focusing on raising her children, including YG Marley who she welcomed in 2001 with Rohan Marley, son of the legendary Bob Marley.
But recently, Lauryn has been hitting the stage to support her son's budding music career. YG Marley's debut single "Praise Jah in the Moonlight" has been making waves, entering the top 40 on the Billboard Hot 100 and reaching the top 10 in multiple countries. The mother-son duo even performed a medley of three songs on The Tonight Show, including "Ex-Factor", "Survival", and "Praise Jah in the Moonlight". And just last month, Lauryn joined YG during his set at Coachella.
It seems like YG Marley may be the one to inspire Lauryn to get back into the studio. Fans are thrilled to see this family affair and can't wait to hear new music from the iconic Lauryn Hill.
