Reported by heyrevolver

According to Columbia Records, the new Lauryn Hill MTV Unplugged double album is set to hit stores in April. The release features 13 new tracks, all of which were performed last summer in MTV studios. This Sunday at 8pm ET, MTV will air the taping of the show, which features Hill solo with only an acoustic guitar, and premiere several of the new songs. Hill explained how she found her way to the guitar: "... when God shows you a thing, we always encourage others to do what we were meant to do. But over a period of time [God] caused me to take it more seriously. He said, 'This is your accompaniment. Don't think it's going to be what you thought it was.' It's just by way of passion. How do we learn anything?" No word from Columbia as to when a studio album is expected from Hill.The "Unplugged" album tracklisting: "Mr Intentional" "Adam Lives in Theory" "Oh Jerusalem" "War in the Mind" "I Find It Hard to Say (Rebel)" "Water" "I Just Want You Around" "Peace of Mind" "The Mystery of Iniquity" "I Get Out" "I Remember" "So Much Things to Say" "The Conquering Lion"
