Start Saving Your Money

and make sure your passport is in order Lauryn Hill fans because your girl is performing for the first in two years at the Montreux Jazz festival in July. What's that you say? You ain't going all the way to Switzerland just to see L-Boogie? Come on, it's not just L. Miss Hill goes on after a tribute to Nina Simone featuring Dianne Reeves, Lizz Wright, Angelique Kidjio, Simone and wild ass Grace Jones closes out concerts that night. Mos Def and Little Brother are playing earlier in the week and George Duke and Steely Dan and Raphael Saadiq and a whole bunch of other artists who's names I'm too bored to type. Click here for the schedule of the two week long event. See you there.

...when I think jazz festival, I always think first of Grace Jones...

Damn Damn Damn!! As a Hip Hop Head, I was saddened to see Lauryn Hill get out the game. To me it was almost like Pac dyin. She was soooooo nice on the mic that she was in my top ten.
The reason I equated it to Pac dyin,was the fact that her lyrics were always guided to helping women make smarter moves. Plus her flow was RETARDED. She will fry YOUR favorite m.c.

Sounds like it'll be a good show. I don't know about Lauryn. I remember when she tried to come back a few years ago and she looked and sounded a mess. I hope she gets herself together this time. We'll see, I'm sure somebody's going to post the footage of at least her on You Tube.

Mr. TRD said...

@WMS you think of Grace Jones?!lol Wow. That's one chick I wouldn't wanna see when I role over at 6:00 in the morning!

i listen to her music and feel so bad for her, i can't believe it's the same person. she didn't take her own advice.

Milly said...

I'll go see her when she hits the U.S
To buy a plane ticket, concert ticket, and pay the U.S postal service to get my passport would be way too much work, especially since shes being featured in the concert in other words shes not the main act in this show.

where's my stimulus? said...

...got the girl lookin' like an Obama chia pet....

cotton mouth said...

I'd go just to see Grace. She's crazy as hell and never disappoints.
As for Lauryn, that's too much damn money to gamble with. You never know which Lauryn will show up that night.

Malika said...

i don't know if i'd go to see lauryn, but liz wright is the business and i'd love to see raphael saadiq. it would be interesting to see what grace jones is going to do also. if i had the bread, i'd go.

quesha said...

i vote no. sorry...it would be too much if she even came to chicago. maybe i would've seen her back in the day BC(before crazy.)

I'll believe it when I see it. If Rohan's not going to be there to swing "Tat Ting", I doubt if she would be even get out of bed. The more important question may be, will she be finished birthing babies by then?

ANON1 said...

*you know what I meant.

Wild Safari said...

She looks more and more like Macy Gray every day.

I would LOVE to go to this event, but she is certainly not the reason why.

Was she recently preggers? When did she have her last child?

Madame: The Journey said...

Don't worry REPENT, L Boogie didn't get infected by the chip, and she'll have a few lil Malcolm's and Garvey's running around tearing ish up on the revolutionary side, where as someone like Wyclef be do one thing and saying another, giving treats to the masses in Hati and helping (wht/other women it's all the same to me) get rich quick off millions. The majority of so called black artist are on some Rodney King ish "can't we all just get along" I say you first. I saw L Boogie in L.V. and she was smoking the mike and guess who were the main audience whites and others, black folks will pay rent money to go see a auto-tune anthem show looking at the crack of some black mans azz or the crouch of a whoochie disguised as a singer with nothing left to the imagination, we ought to be ashame if we had any. Support Ms. Hill(L.Boogie)she supported you giving inspiration to her people, if the bones in the average persons closet became exposed the majority of yall would be locked up, stop worrying about her personal life if you really support her music, I bet half yall got that trapped in the closet pedophilia CD. Push the heathens out and let the truth flow though, Nah-Nah-Nah-Nah______.snitchesssssss
