Raise your hand if Lauryn Hill’s start times have tested your patience.
Hill and Wyclef Jean finally took the Hollywood Bowl stage Sunday night after fans had waited nearly two hours—and the venue’s curfew left little time for the performance.
The show was advertised for 7:30 p.m on November 8, with some attendees revealing that the set didn’t begin until around 9:37, giving them 53 minutes before the 10:30 p.m. cutoff.
Hill and Jean were celebrating 30 years of the Fugees’ The Score. Fans online had mixed reactions to the show. While some praised the music and the drone display that closed the show, others said the long delay and short set left them disappointed.
“I went and it was definitely a two hour wait.. DJ was tired as hell trying to fill the time ?,” one person wrote in the comments of an Instagram post sharing the news.
“I’m not understanding what’s so hard for her… same album for like 30 years and has yet to show up on time.,” another said.
“I was there. To make your fans wait 2 hours for a 50 minute performance is utterly disrespectful,” a third replied.
A fourth said, “I was there and it was a long wait but the show was well worth it. They were both great with hit after hit.”
Some also noted that anticipated guests Little Simz, Gunna, and Tiwa Savage did not appear and that two DJ openers played instead.
Hill has acknowledged her late start times before. After a late set at the 2025 Essence Festival, Hill said production problems—not her arrival—had caused the delay. Festival organizers also took responsibility for the issue.
“Thank you Essence for clarifying that the delays were not my fault,” Hill wrote in a statement at the time. She said she had stayed quiet about past delays but would no longer let production issues appear to be solely her responsibility.
Hill also pushed back on the idea that she simply shows up whenever she wants. “There seems to be a misconception out there though that I am somewhere on the Riviera with my feet up, drink in hand, showing up to concerts whenever because I’m too important to care,” she wrote. “That’s nonsense.”
