While Lauryn Hill has stayed busy touring for the 20th anniversary of The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill, she hasn’t released a proper solo album since, well, The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill.
But on Friday (November 15), the ex-Fugees member dropped ” Guarding The Gates,” her first solo single since 2014’s “Black Rage,” which she dedicated to the people of Ferguson, Missouri after Michael Brown was shot and killed by a police officer.
“Guarding The Gates” comes from the soundtrack for the Lena Waithe-scripted film Queen & Slim, which features the breakout star from Get Out Daniel Kaluuya and newcomer Jodie Turner-Smith.
The trailer for the film featured music from The Pharcyde and the soundtrack itself boasts music from Vince Staples, Megan Thee Stallion and Blood Orange, among others.
Queen & Slim hit theaters nationwide on November 27.
Revisit the trailer below and check out Hill’s song above.
Washed up loser must owe someone money
Red hat alert.
FGF, Good, get off the plantation, fool. The Democrats kept you in the projects and on EBT long enough, no? More people are waking up. Walk away.
Top 5 Dead or Alive. Ms Hill.
Shes a Racist dirtbag
MAGA much?
Is that supposed to be an insult? No i didnt vote for trump but i will in 2020 because of boys who cry wolf like you.
Oooh. That’ll teach him not to mess with you ?
Ha. If you think Lauryn Hill is racist you definitely voted for Trump in 16, Skunk Alert. You aint gotta lie to kickit
When she was in norway, she said she only wanted black people to waite on her and because they didn`t have enough black people she made the white people in the staff wear gloves because she didn`t want to touch the same spots. This was at a festival in a smalltown where mostly white people live.
Not gonna call her a racist, but she sure as hell hates white people.
This is old but still good
The song 10+ years old
She’s the most overrated artist ever!
This is the most imbecilic comment ever.
is she her own boss who is doing the press releases how can her record company be so inactive to give her five years before more music.
She lovely<3
