Rapper Drake sampled Lauryn Hill’s “Ex Factor” on his new track “Nice for What”, so she returned the favor by remixing the song during a concert at the Apollo Theater in NYC. Watch the video after the break.
Lauryn was spotted outside the Apollo Theater after her late night concert on Tuesday. She greeted concert goers and paused to accept a portrait of herself from a fan.
The 42-year-old mother-of-6 kicks off her North America concert tour in Greenwich, CT on June 1.
My girl! I see ya Lauryn
She looks nice but I’m not fooling with her.
but was she on time?
i love lauryn’s perpetually tardy ass. she looks lovely.
You made me bust out laughing and it’s all quiet up in here today…LOL….And the answer to your question is……That’s A No for $1000 Alex…..LOL
Love you Lauryn,but your concerts are The Worst! To anyone thinking of attending-She is NEVER on time and she does not own her music…she sings snippets of our favorite jams with different beats/music…I’m NOT trying to be negative-The Miseducation is my ISH,but I just want y’all to know that you won’t get THAT Lauryn in concert…..and she will NEVER be on time…Last concert she kicked a guy out 4 complaining that she was 3 hours late.
lmao. our girl has mastered the TF out of a fashionably late arrival.
I hope Lauryn is on her meds and got fixed after giving birth to her last child.
Is anyone here in the music industry? I’m sure that she doesn’t own the music,but she was a writer on the album..she never sung ANY song all the way through..like how back in the day,they could only sing 5-10 seconds of the Happy Birthday song on TV or they would have to pay.
You childish!!!! lol
lol, very ? at this point i think she tests folks. treats the late arrivals like a game to see what the crowd’s breaking point is.
like… “let’s kick things up to a 4hr and 17 min wait for THIS show. make these MFs use some PTO in the morning.”
Man… your probably right. Or she just dont gaf period. Like she gets up to perform only after she has finished her second blunt lol
*sigh* she was so woke and we had such high hopes and then she got ahold of some good island D and now we cant trust her to show up or act right.. Kanye this is your future lol
Which one…wyclefs or the Marley fella ?
right! prolly that too. backstage signing permission slips and applying coconut oil and ish. coming out looking radiant and late AF.
Kanye is getting some good island D?????
She did a really nice take on that song.
Ms. Hill is a legend before, in, and beyond our time!
Apparently lol but he shole got ahold of that neaderthal coohie and really post it.
*lost
Bof lol
People can sleep outside an Apple Store overnight for a phone debut, we can wait 3 hours for Ms. Hill to show up. This video of her sampling Drake is brilliant. The greatest female MC and among the top 10 MCs to ever live.
LOLLOLLOL!!!!!!!
Last I heard his boyfriend was French
She is such a beautiful woman.
Wonder how long they waited for her to grace them with her presence?
Lauren looks goodt! I liked both songs. Nice for what is going to be a summer banger and Ex Factor still gives me chills.
Was she on time?
lol! prolly backstage arguing w/comcast about her bill. u know they keep u on hold and give u the run around for HOURS ?
Ricardo Tisci I believe
I know and youthful looking. That melanin poppin’
Yep Ricardo
She’s a legend and she gonna make you understand that, by being tardy to the party.
When I tell ya ex factor speaks to the relationship in my life… still til this day…
So because she can’t sing her own songs she sung the sample of one of her songs
intresting
My Israelite cousin wears that same sh*t. And she’s a hypocrite. Just rolled my eyes looking at these pics..???? don’t have sh*t to do with lauryn tho..?
No. Your time is valuable…or maybe it’s just me.
I have an iPhone 5,and rental properties.I don’t “wait” for Lauryn or Apple…#Dobetter
chile I’m over here vibing chile…. ? ? aye… This shyt nice here
gotta show appreciation for the fans though … they helped her get there …. I Like Lauren myself … But ya gotta appreciate people supporting you now…
“Hey”! Go Lauren, go Lauren!
QTNA: What type of footwear is Ms. Hill rockin’ with that afrocentric ensemble? Bedazzled clogs? Platforms?
Please Jesus Help her to stay focused. Never seen her in concert and would love to see it in person….if she shows up. August 3rd is a long time from now. *prayers up* * fingers crossed*
Definitely, she needs to do better. She needs to be more appreciative of her fan base.
Good plastic surgery she looks better hope she off that narcotic.
When I tell you I played The Miseducation until my CD was skipping….I love her…I hope she’s back to that!!! I’m here for it!!!
Stop playing
Damn 6 kids… her and erykah baduu some real bag ladies ???
I love both their songs, great beat. Did she say she got her headgear from Wakanda?
He has said repeatedly that she met up with some “guru” and went left on him. He tried to stick it out but it got too bizarre so he split. I mean the Marleys are Rastafarian..I have no clue what Lauren is. Dat ain’t no Rasta teachings lol
I would love to see them perform together.
I couldn’t go to a concert of hers. Girlfriend is waay too late for me!!!
Geesh I never heard that.
The person who painted that portrait of her is good. Very impressed with their artistry.
At least L Boogie got married and had all but the last child by the same person. Erykah collects kid souvenirs from every relationship.
Lauryn looks like a woman that just stopped hitting the pipe. She looks a hot mess
I love her to death. Hate on her all you want, but they’ll be another Beyonce before you can duplicate another Ms. Lauren Hill……… I’ll wait
Is that Pucci or just azz Print. I see you JUSTLOOKING GOOD MS. HILL
She looks good!
Love herrrrr.
When Lauryn is ON..shyt is soul moving and just hellfiiiyahh!!
Im surprised to see so many straight hairs in the crowd tho…whypepolikelauryntoo? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/b25c55f880104788ab280e26748e8bbe2ddcb658e261a54c8e0848bcab10a924.gif
I want to know that too. My friend wants to see her in October and I told her I can’t because Ms. Hill is consistently late. I would be pissed if I wait for 2 or 3 hours on a weeknight and had to work that following day.
He needs some d in his life
She needs to take make up lessons. Cause she did that herself.
I will not waste my time going to see her. Her showing up 6 hours late is not the MOVE.
I thought that was cicely tyson
It’s not just you. It’s highly disrespectful.
She really is on that level of stunning Black beauty like Queen Cicely! She’s giving me Phyllis Yvonne Stickney vibes too. Just gorgeous!!!!
YOU’RE RIGHT THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER LAUREN WHICH IS WHY WE DON’T HAVE ONE NOW. THE OLD LAUREN IS GONE WHICH IS SAD B/C SHE WAS A BEAST!!!! HER ALBUM, M.O.L.H., IS A CLASSIC AND SADLY THE ONLY WAY WE CAN HEAR THOSE SONGS B/C HER SINGING VOICE IS SH0T AND THE RAPPING VOICE AIN’T THAT GREAT EITHER. OAN: SHE LOOKED GREAT!!! LOVED THE ATTIRE……….JENNY JONES!!!!
LOL!!!! AND WOULD BE CALLED A THOT, HOE AND GROUPIE LIKE EVERY OTHER CHICK THAT HAS KIDS BY MULTIPLE FAMOUS MEN OR RAPPERS IF SHE WASN’T FAMOUS ERYKAH BADU………JENNY JONES!!!
BUT IF YOU GET TIRED OF WAITING FOR APPLE OR DON’T WANT TO WAIT FOR APPLE YOU CAN JUST COME BACK LATER THEY AREN’T HOLDING YOUR MONEY HOSTAGE NOT GIVING YOU A REFUND AND MAKING YOU WAIT, IF YOU GET TIRED OF WAITING AND LEAVE A LAUREN CONCERT IT’S JUST A STRAIGHT ‘L’ IN THE POCKET. TOTALLY ASS OUT!!!!……JENNY JONES!!!
soooooooooooooooo I heard that Lauryn does not own the rights to ANY of her music and can only do remixes, not the originals, inn concert. I also heard she showed up on time for this concert. kudos to her!
lol are you kidding? I mean when her first album dropped I was working at a record shop and they were the main ones buying the album…they know her from that white friendly movie, and they buy a lot of rap….and lord the new generation of sprites getting into her too
lol what??? Janelle Mona always reminded me of Lauren
Kennedy.. I sweatergawd I had no idea..I thought Lauryn was too edgy for mainstream yts…I guess she caught a following from Sister Act? https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9eb2b76e506e38d5072dd1cf3ad262774eb5ffcb7856de93eefa3205f33fbcb1.gif
She looks really good! Someone should’ve helped her out by wiping those crumbs off her face tho…
My musical idol Prince paid all of Lauren’s bills when she went to prison for tax evasion years ago..
Big Freedia
I loved her music back in the day and I guess I still love it now. However, she really confuses me, I have no idea who she is. Well I know who she is, but who is she.
Luvs me some Lauryn Hill!
