 Fugees | A New Jersey trio originally called Tranzlator Crew, the Fugees first appeared in 1993 with the release of their slept-on debut Blunted On Reality. They came back with a vengeance three years later, burning up the charts with numerous singles from their multiplatinum follow-up The Score. The album brought live instruments, reggae beats, and soulful vocals into the mix, and featured huge hits like "Fugee La," "Ready Or Not," and a cover of Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly." Critically praised and thrust into superstardom, the Fugees went on to win two Grammys, one for best rap album, and another for best R&B performance. In '97 Wyclef released Refugee All-Stars' The Carnival, while Pras had a hit with "Ghetto Supastar." Lauryn Hill dropped The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill in '98, for which she was nominated for eleven Grammys and took home five. In 2000 Wyclef returned with Ecleftic: 2 Sides II A Book, and reached out for a Fugees reunion on the track "Where Fugees At?"Find Fugees cds and Fugees records on Sony Records. |
