Lauryn Hill’s Touring Company Sued For Almost $60,000 In Unpaid Wages Following Cancellation Of Several Shows

Singer/songwriter Lauryn Hill’s touring company is being accused of not paying an alleged debt.

Reportedly, a service provider hired to help the songstress prepare for her anniversary tour filed suit against the company, claiming they’re owed nearly $60,000 in unpaid compensation.

The complaint was reportedly submitted by California service provider Eighteentwentysix LLC against Lauryn Hill’s MLH Touring Inc. They claim that a contract both parties entered around August 2023 was breached after MLH failed to follow through on paying approximately $59,175.89 for the production, rehearsals, and other details they were hired to oversee for the singer’s North America tour.

As previously covered, Lauryn Hill announced a tour celebrating the 25th anniversary of her record-breaking The Miseducation Of Lauryn HillĀ album last year, though she ended up having to cancel several show dates due to health complications. It appears that the situation resulted in Eighteentwentysix LLC never being paid for their services despite numerous attempts to collect on the alleged debt. The company is suing for the amount owed plus a 10% interest, and also wants MLH to cover their attorney fees, the costs incurred in filing the lawsuit, and any other relief deemed just and fair.

At this time, it has not been reported that Hill has responded to the matter in public or court. If you recall, the “Ex-Factor” artist promised to make up the lost shows to her fans, announcing that all the canceled concerts would be rescheduled and that she’d be adding additional tour dates and cities.
