The Fugees

I was listening to there 2 albums Blunted On Reality & The Score

Two great albums, of course The Score is a straight up masterpiece every song is fantastic while Blunted is not quite up to par yet it sure get's pooptoast a lot by fans and critics.

I like Nappy Heads, Vocab, Refugee On The Mic & how Hard Is It not a masterpiece but some solid songs IMO

The Score has such a great combination of Hip Hop, Soul & even a little funk i love the stories each song tell's and not to mention there's 2 great remakes in Killing Me Softly & No Woman No Cry.

Family Business, Manifest, Cowboys & Fu-Gee-La are my faves

Beyond that of course there's the great Miseducation of Lauryn Hill & Wyclef Jean has some great albums like Masquerade

Pistols sounded like "Fuck off," wheras The Clash sounded like "Fuck Off, but here's why.."- Thedigitialgardener

I remembered after they came out with The Score, the Roots went on an attack against them claiming they stole their sound. lol Tupac also had choice words for them because of what he called backstabbing him by dissing California rap. Not surprised they peaked when they did looking back at that era. It got to a point in mid-1997 when there was too much coverage of anything Fugees and then the moment where Lauryn basically told the group to kiss her ass (Miseducation, '98).

I heard about that i love The Roots as well both great band's but IMO both have there own sound.

And i think they could have at least released one more album they where touring and getting press years after The Score but it wasn't really official till Miseducation came out that they where done.

Shame but maybe it's best so they didn't end up making bad albums and have a classic one lol

Lauryn did the same confused

Wyclef imo made some great stuff last decade, Pras had one hit with Ghetto Superstar and kind of just feel off.

Lauryn of course nothing need's to be said she's in her own Lauryn world as much as Prince is in Prince world lol

Wyclef has had some trouble the last little while, of course you know what happened with Lauryn, no one knows what Pras is doing or seems to care. lol
