Ms. Lauryn Hill surprised the crowd at the first weekend of Coachella, making a guest appearances during her son YG Marley’s set and bringing Wyclef Jean along with her.
The Marley heir took the stage on Sunday afternoon (April 14). Roughly 15 minutes into his set, his mother joined in and ran through a number of her solo hits before bringing performing some Fugees hits with Wyclef.
“Ex-Factor,” “Lost Ones,” “Killing Me Softly,” “Ready or Not” and “Fu-Gee-La” all made it to the setlist, with YG filling in for Pras‘ parts on “Ready or Not.”
Later in the set, they also brought out Busta Rhymes and Spliff Star.

Next month, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill will be inducted into the Grammy Hall Of Fame in 2024 alongside De La Soul‘s 3 Feet High and Rising and more.
The ceremony is scheduled to take place at the Novo Theater in Los Angeles, CA on May 21.
“We’re proud to unveil the diverse mix of recordings entering the Grammy Hall Of Fame in its 50th year,” Recording Academy CEO Harvey Mason Jr. shared.
“The music showcased here has played a pivotal role in shaping our cultural landscape, and it’s a true honor to recognize these albums and recordings, along with the profound influence each has had on music and beyond.”
The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 tally upon its release and went on to win five Grammy Awards: Best New Artist, Best R&B Song, Best Female R&B Vocal Performance, and Best R&B Album.
3 Feet High and Rising, on the other hand, didn’t receive the same amount of commercial shine when it first dropped but has since been credited for giving art rap and progressive Hip Hop a boost like no other body of work before it. In 2010, the Library of Congress added the LP to the National Recording Registry on the basis of it being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant.”
