Lauryn Hill fans hardly need anything else to swoon over, but her latest movements should probably come with a warning label just in case.
The singer performed on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, and stopped the show with her rendition of Nina Simone‘s Feeling Good. An eight time Grammy award winner, Ms Hill contributed to the Netflix only documentary about Nina (titled What Happened Miss Simone?), as well as the Nina Simone tribute album titled Nina Revisited. It’s a show-stopping rendition, with Hill’s voice perfectly matching the raucous, bluesy arrangement. Backed by rhythm, horn and string sections, a searing guitar solo courtesy of blues guitarist Eric Gales and back up singers, Lauryn Hill delivered one of – if not the – biggest performance to grace Fallon’s late night show.
Ms Lauryn Hill will be in Australia very soon for some hugely anticipated shows, both on the Soulfest lineup and some sideshows – all of which are selling fast (more details here).
