R&B singer, and former Fugees member, Lauryn Hill has established a bit of a reputation for showing up late to concerts and performing strange renditions of her songs, and that’s apparently what happened over the weekend in London.
Hill reportedly arrived 90 minutes late on Saturday for a concert at London’s O2 Academy.
Critics and fans both called her setlist “awful” and”unrecognizable.” It got so hot for L-Boogie, it resulted in a trending topic on Twitter, according to The Guardian. Fans were even heard booing Hill, whose set was also riddled with sound issues.
Here’s what Londoners had to say about Hill’s performance:
I paid to watch Lauryn Hill perform, in my opinion a truly great album but instead I’ve just left half way through her High School Musical..

Why on earth she chose to remix her beautiful classic songs to the point of being unrecognisable (in a BAD way), I’ll never know #laurynhill

OK the #laurynhill concert is weird. That’s my verdict. Sounds like circus music.
