Lauryn Hill Quotes Nicki Minaj in Apology to Atlanta Fans

Vallery Jean, FilmMagic

During Lauryn Hill's mid-January tour stop in Atlanta, a late appearance and a mediocre performance prompted many fans to walk out of the show. On the eve of her second show in ATL on Wednesday (March 30), the former Fugees singer finally apologized to the fans she alienated that night.

Hill posted a note on her new Twitter account -- she set it up just a few weeks ago to keep fans updated on her tour -- with a short intro that read "Atlanta! A message from Ms. Hill" and then proceeded to apologize and tickle fans by quoting Nicki Minaj.

"ATL, I had to come back. I'M HERE and excited for the opportunity to do what should have been done the last time," she wrote. "Starting off on the wrong foot can always be easily rectified by putting another foot down, especially in a 'monster shoe' (Nicki Minaj quotable). Come Again! Mis. Hill, Part Deux." Fans who commented on the note were especially thrilled with the ode to the 'Pink Friday' creator.

Back in January, Hill arrived three hours late for her show and proceeded to play remixed versions of songs that fans were not familiar with. "Nobody could participate because NOBODY knew the music!" one particularly irate concert-goer told Atlanta-based blog, SandraRose.com. "Everybody was looking around like 'WHAT SONG IS THIS???'"

Following her concert in Atlanta on March 30, Lauryn Hill will continue her current 12-city tour by jetting off to Hawaii. Her upcoming concert dates are as follows:

4/3: Aloha Tower, Oahu, Hawaii
4/9: Arlene Schnitzer Hall, Portland, Ore.
4/12: The Warfield, San Francisco, Calif.
4/15: Coachella Music and Arts Festival, Indio, Calif.
4/18: Club Nokia, Los Angeles, Calif.
4/23: The Fillmore, Denver, Colo.
5/7: JazzFest, New Orleans, La.

Not the first time she was late to a show (Rock the Bells, Washington DC, 2010)... At least she apologized to the Atlanta fan.
