event description
This event has been canceled. Refunds are available at point of purchase.

A Benefit to Support the Full Season of Free Programs at Central Park SummerStage.

Live Nation presents The Lyrics Tour starring Jill Scott with special guest Wyclef Jean.

Grammy-winning singer Jill Scott takes you on a uniquely personal journey through love’s ups and downs, from lonely nights to happier days. Using her own distinctive poetry, Scott projects a “sensual bravado” (Guardian) with songs like “Hate on Me,” “Breathe,” “Golden,” and “Gettin’ in the Way".

Like her new CD, she’s The Real Thing.

Rapper, producer, and member of the superstar hip hop trio The Fugees, Wyclef Jean is known now for a series of high-profile solo hit singles. In 2007, he released his sixth album, entitled Carnival Vol. II: Memoirs of an Immigrant. Considered by many to be an urban opera, it includes singles "Sweetest Girl (Dollar Bill)," featuring Akon, Niia & Lil' Wayne, and "Any Other Day" with guest Norah Jones.
