Media Release: Wednesday December 2, 2009
The Raggamuffin Music Festival is pleased to announce
MS. LAURYN HILL will join the 2010 bill.
Ms. Lauryn Hill, an American recording artist, musician, producer and actress
established her reputation in the hip-hop world as the lone female member of the
Fugees. She sang at Harlem's Apollo Theater at age thirteen and soon after met
Prakazrel ‘Pras’ Michel and his cousin, Wyclef Jean and the three formed the
Fugees.
In 1996 the group released their second album, which Ms. Hill co-wrote and co-
produced. The Score sold over 18 million copies, making the Fugees the biggest-
selling rap group of all time and winning them two Grammy Awards (Best Rap
Album and Best R&B Performance by a duo or group).
A few years later after meeting her long-term partner, Rohan Marley son of Bob
Marley, Ms Hill launched her solo career and released the commercially successful
and critically acclaimed album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. The recording
earned her five Grammy Awards and praise from industry heavyweights such as
Public Enemy's Chuck D who admiringly described her as "sunlight" and a "Bob
Marley (of the) 21st Century”.
Ms. Lauryn Hill will perform at Raggamuffin with SLY & ROBBIE.
Also performing is another member of the Fugees WYCLEF JEAN, plus son of Bob
Marley JULIAN MARLEY, SHAGGY, SEAN KINGSTON reggae legends STEEL PULSE,
BLUE KING BROWN and HOUSE OF SHEM.
