We’re going through a bit of a Lauryn Hill renaissance. Both Drake and Cardi B have sampled X-Factor on new songs, ensuring her voice is being streamed hundreds of thousand times a day, and now the elusive rapper/singer is playing the 1998 opus the song comes from, The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill, in full. The 20th-anniversary performance was initially assumed to be a one-off at Pitchfork Music Festival, but now it’s coming to Budweiser Stage on July 18.

Ms. Hill has a… complicated relationship with her own legacy, and isn’t usually one for nostalgia. She does play material from Miseducation at live shows – it is her only solo full-length album, after all – but she often uses new arrangements and flows that render the fondly remembered songs unrecognizable. So it’s not likely you’re going to get a jukebox performance of the album. But whatever the show will be, it will undoubtedly be memorable.

July 18 at Budweiser Stage (909 Lake Shore). Doors 5 pm, all ages. $37-$199. On sale April 20. ticketmaster.ca.
