Anyone remember John Forte?

I had a couple of his CDs but didn't know he was related to Carly Simon and is now in prison.

Much of the awareness surrounding the Former Fugee’s case is related to his surrogate mother, singer Carly Simon. When he turned 13, Forte won a full scholarship to the prestigious Exeter academy, where he befriended Simon’s son Ben Taylor. From there, the Brooklyn native became a part of the family.


She gave birth to him?? eek

come to think of it.....if you listen to Poly Sci, he did sound full of himself but i though he had a great voice and decent rhyming skills

I liked a song he made with Pras on the 1997 Sprung soundtrack called "Movin' On."

As a whole, it was just one of those dime-a-dozen '90s soundtracks, but this song stood out for me.

He was awesome on the 2 Bad remix on Blood On The Dance Floor.

At least I think that was him with Pras on it. cool
