MUSIC

Lauryn Hill Since her 1998 solo debut, “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill,” the erstwhile rasta-hop goddess has been confounding her former Fugees bandmates, having babies with her on-again-off-again beau Rohan Marley, making perplexing statements and asking that we all address her as Ms. Hill. This year, she can add another bullet point, a clearly positive one, to her difficult resume: a Coachella comeback set that satiated her fans. Fox Theater, 301 South Garey Ave., Pomona. 8 p.m. $47.50-$60. https://www.foxpomona.com.
