After a nearly 2-year hiatus from the music scene, hip-hop singer Lauryn Hill will return to the stage this summer, according to a report by Billboard.

The former Fugees singer is scheduled to perform at the five-day Stockholm Jazz Fest in July, according to festival spokesman Gunnar Lagerman. This will be Hill's second time headlining the Swedish festival, which is expected to draw up to 30,000 people. Other confirmed artists include tenor saxophonist Sonny Rollins and Brazilian singer Gilberto Gil.

Hill, who gave birth to her fifth child with Rohan Marley last January, hasn't performed publicly since 2007
