With less than four days left before Netflix premieres the biographical documentary What Happened, Miss Simone?, Ms. Lauryn Hill lets loose another cover she’s contributed to the official soundtrack, “(Ain’t Got No)… I’ve Got Life.”

L Boogie, who contributes six covers of the legendary jazz/blues vocalist’s discography recently delivered her “Feeling Good” cover a few days back.

I’ve included the tracklist for those who may have missed it. One song that is missing that I would have loved to hear someone cover is a favorite of mine: “Funkier Than a Mosquito’s Tweeter.” I know, I’m greedy.
