Lauryn Hill will make her way to Fort Lauderdale, Florida this May. Billboard has revealed that the Grammy Award winner will attend the 2023 Tom Joyner Foundation Fantastic Voyage. Set to take place on May 20-27, 2023, the Royal Caribbean-sponsored cruise will make its way from Florida to Mexico and then Jamaica. Along the way, Joyner’s guests will enjoy appearances from the likes of Charlie Wilson as well as seminars and themed events.
“I am so excited that Ms. Lauryn Hill is performing on the Tom Joyner Fantastic Voyage 2023,” Joyner told Billboard.
“She is one of the best of all time. Cruisers coming to Party with a Purpose and help raise money for HBCU scholarships won’t be disappointed with what will be an amazing show.”
At the moment, Billboard reports that 80% of cabins have been purchased. Fortunately, a percentage of the proceeds from the cruise will benefit Black colleges and universities around the nation.
“I’m savin’ souls and y’all complainin’ ’bout my lateness,” Lauryn Hill rapped alongside Nas on King’s Disease II.
It appears that the New Jersey native is doing all that she can to support the next generation of Black academics.
