On July 10, RCA Recordings will release a Nina Simone tribute album called Nina Revisited: A Tribute To Nina Simone. Lauryn Hill released a statement about the track to RollingStone: “Because I fed on this music, both hers and lovers like her, like my basic food, I believed I always had a right to have a voice.
