Hill updates the 2002 single to reflect the current racial climate in the United States. Ms. Lauryn Hill has released an updated version of her old single “Rebel/I Find It Hard To Say” exclusively on TIDAL. The single originally appeared on her 2002 MTV Unplugged 2.0 album as a tribute to Amadou Diallo, a black victim of police brutality who has been canonised in several protest songs. The new version of the song reflects the current racial climate in the United States. “Old tune, new Version, same context, even more relevant now,” Hill explained on Twitter. “Sick and tired of being sick and tired.” Hill performed last night at TIDAL X 1015.
