{"title":"Fugees","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Fugees translated a seamless blend of jazz-rap, R\u0026amp;B, and reggae into huge success during the mid-'90s, when the New Jersey-area trio's seminal sophomore album The Score hit number one on the pop charts and sold over five million copies before winning a pair of Grammy Awards in 1997. Featuring the songs \"Killing Me Softly\" and \"Ready or Not,\" the effort became a '90s classic, while each member went on to pursue solo careers that extended into the 2000s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe trio formed in the late '80s in South Orange, New Jersey, where high school friends Lauryn Hill and Prakazrel Michel (\"Pras\") began working together. Michel's cousin Wyclef Jean joined the group, dubbed the Tranzlator Crew, and they signed to Ruffhouse\/Columbia in 1993. After renaming themselves the Fugees (a term of derision, short for refugees, which was usually used to describe Haitian immigrants), they entered the studio to record their first official full-length, Blunted on Reality. Issued in early 1994, the album showcased a beat-driven, hip-hop crew vibe, with Hill, Jean, and Michel trading verses in a fashion similar to A Tribe Called Quest, Poor Righteous Teachers, and Digable Planets. While an underground favorite, the album didn't make much of a dent on the charts and they veered in a different, but ultimately more successful, direction on their follow-up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Score arrived in 1996 and was an instant hit. Retaining some of their earlier jazz-rap spirit, while incorporating traditional R\u0026amp;B that showcased Hill's singing abilities, the album topped charts across the globe and was certified multi-platinum around Europe and in the U.S. Featuring the soulful, chart-topping single \"Killing Me Softly\" and a top 40 cover of Bob Marley's \"No Woman No Cry,\" The Score made significant dents in the commercial mainstream while retaining their existing fan base, becoming one of the surprise hits of 1996. At the 1997 Grammy Awards, the Fugees won Best Rap Album and Best R\u0026amp;B Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group for \"Killing Me Softly.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFollowing the success of The Score, the Fugees took a break, pursuing solo endeavors that eventually made the hiatus permanent. Jean issued his first solo album, 1997's The Carnival Featuring the Refugee Allstars, while Michel joined Mya and Ol' Dirty Bastard for the hit single \"Ghetto Superstar (That Is What You Are).\" In 1998, Hill released her chart-topping, neo-soul opus The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, which went on to outsell The Score and win five Grammy Awards in 1999. While Hill bowed out while on top of her game, Pras continued rapping and also pursued acting and film production. Meanwhile, Jean continued to release solo material -- issuing over a dozen albums -- and produced for artists, working with the likes of Destiny's Child, Santana, Shakira, Young Thug, and many more.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlmost a decade after peaking with The Score, they reconvened in 2005, performing together on a European tour and releasing the single \"Take It Easy.\" However, the reunion was brief, and the trio disbanded once again. While their overall time together was short, The Score endures as one of the most critically acclaimed albums of all time and each Fugee remained active -- both musically and politically -- for decades to come. ~ Neil Z.

The Fugees was an American hip hop group who rose to fame in the early-1990s. Their repertoire included elements of hip hop, soul and Caribbean music, particularly reggae. The members of the group were rapper\/singer\/producer Wyclef Jean, rapper\/singer\/producer Lauryn Hill, and rapper\/producer Pras Michel. Deriving their name from the term refugee, Jean and Michel are Haitian, while Hill is American.

And for those who already knew these beats backward and forward, the remixes take the songs to a new level. Clark Kent's take on \"Ready Or Not\" (now based on a loop of the Modern Jazz Quartet's \"Django\") makes the track completely over, while a re-recorded \"No Woman No Cry\" (complete with Marley offspring on vocals and Wailers guitarist Earl \"Chinna\" Smith on six-string skank) pulls longingly on the heartstrings.

The album features a wide range of samples and instrumentation, with many aspects of alternative hip hop that would come to dominate the hip hop music scene in the mid-late 1990s. The Score's production was handled mostly by the Fugees themselves and Jerry Duplessis, with additional production from Salaam Remi, John Forté, Diamond D, and Shawn King. The album's guest raps are from Outsidaz' members Rah Digga, Young Zee and Pacewon, as well as Omega, John Forté, and Diamond D. Most versions of the album feature four bonus tracks, including three remixes of \"Fu-Gee-La\", and a short acoustic Wyclef Jean solo track entitled \"Mista Mista.\" Upon it's release, The Score was a commercial success, peaking at the number one spot on both the Billboard 200, and the Top R\u0026amp;B\/Hip Hop Albums chart (it was a number-one album on the latter in 1996 on the year-end chart). The singles \"Killing Me Softly, \" \"Fu-Gee-La, \" and \"Ready or Not\" also achieved notable chart success, and helped the group achieve worldwide recognition. On October 3, 1997, The Score was certified six times platinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). In addition to receiving mostly favorable reviews upon it's release, the album has garnered a considerable amount of acclaim over the years, with many music critics and publications noting it as one of the greatest albums of the 1990s, as well as one of the greatest hip hop albums of all time. In 1998, the album was included in The Source's 100 best rap albums list, and in 2003, it was ranked number 477 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003e\u2028Tracklist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003eA1        Red Intro\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA2        How Many Mics\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA3        Ready Or Not\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA4        Zealots\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA5        The Beast\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB1        Fu-Gee-La\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB2        Family Business\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB3        Killing Me Softly With His Song\u003cbr\u003e\r\nC1        The Score\u003cbr\u003e\r\nC2        The Mask\u003cbr\u003e\r\nC3        Cowboys\u003cbr\u003e\r\nD1        No Woman, No Cry\u003cbr\u003e\r\nD2        Manifest \/ Outro\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003e*Audio and\/or tracklist may vary slightly from the vinyl version.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003eLabel: SONY UK\u003cbr\u003e\r\nRel.

The album was also nominated for Album Of The Year. On their second album, the Fugees utilize a couple of the mid-'90s trends in hip-hop--cinematic construct and references to Asian fighting techniques. But THE SCORE transcends much of the genre's recent output, because it's as much about musicality as it is about beats. In fact, deep beats often take a back seat to tense, noir grooves. More importantly, all three rappers--Haitian males, Wyclef and Pras, and New Jerseyite female, Lauryn Hill--swing hard, syncopating around the beats like jazz instrumentalists, making THE SCORE a complex and challenging listen. THE SCORE also boasts some of the most intelligent, non-exclusionary rhymes in recent memory. Wyclef claims to \"run through Crown Heights\/Screaming out Mazel Tov\" and Hill draws parallels between herself and both Nina Simone and Elliot Ness. Too politically astute and musically talented to fall into the ruts of rap cliches and dependence on overused samples, the Fugees are placing a significant, personalized stamp on the direction of hip-hop.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003e\u2028Tracklist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003eA1        Red Intro\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA2        How Many Mics\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA3        Ready Or Not\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA4        Zealots\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA5        The Beast\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB1        Fu-Gee-La\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB2        Family Business\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB3        Killing Me Softly With His Song\u003cbr\u003e\r\nC1        The Score\u003cbr\u003e\r\nC2        The Mask\u003cbr\u003e\r\nC3        Cowboys\u003cbr\u003e\r\nD1        No Woman, No Cry\u003cbr\u003e\r\nD2        Manifest \/ Outro\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003e*Audio and\/or tracklist may vary slightly from the vinyl version.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003eLabel: IMT\u003cbr\u003e\r\nRel.

The album features a wide range of samples and instrumentation, with many aspects of alternative hip hop that would come to dominate the hip hop music scene in the mid-late 1990s. The Score's production was handled mostly by the Fugees themselves and Jerry Duplessis, with additional production from Salaam Remi, John Forté, Diamond D, and Shawn King. The album's guest raps are from Outsidaz' members Rah Digga, Young Zee and Pacewon, as well as Omega, John Forté, and Diamond D. Most versions of the album feature four bonus tracks, including three remixes of \"Fu-Gee-La\", and a short acoustic Wyclef Jean solo track entitled \"Mista Mista.\" Upon it's release, The Score was a commercial success, peaking at the number one spot on both the Billboard 200, and the Top R\u0026amp;B\/Hip Hop Albums chart (it was a number-one album on the latter in 1996 on the year-end chart). The singles \"Killing Me Softly, \" \"Fu-Gee-La, \" and \"Ready or Not\" also achieved notable chart success, and helped the group achieve worldwide recognition. On October 3, 1997, The Score was certified six times platinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). In addition to receiving mostly favorable reviews upon it's release, the album has garnered a considerable amount of acclaim over the years, with many music critics and publications noting it as one of the greatest albums of the 1990s, as well as one of the greatest hip hop albums of all time. In 1998, the album was included in The Source's 100 best rap albums list, and in 2003, it was ranked number 477 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003eFugees (Refugee Camp): Lauryn Hill, Prakazrel \"Pras,\" Wyclef.

The album was also nominated for Album Of The Year. On their second album, the Fugees utilize a couple of the mid-'90s trends in hip-hop--cinematic construct and references to Asian fighting techniques. But THE SCORE transcends much of the genre's recent output, because it's as much about musicality as it is about beats. In fact, deep beats often take a back seat to tense, noir grooves. More importantly, all three rappers--Haitian males, Wyclef and Pras, and New Jerseyite female, Lauryn Hill--swing hard, syncopating around the beats like jazz instrumentalists, making THE SCORE a complex and challenging listen. THE SCORE also boasts some of the most intelligent, non-exclusionary rhymes in recent memory. Wyclef claims to \"run through Crown Heights\/Screaming out Mazel Tov\" and Hill draws parallels between herself and both Nina Simone and Elliot Ness. Too politically astute and musically talented to fall into the ruts of rap cliches and dependence on overused samples, the Fugees are placing a significant, personalized stamp on the direction of hip-hop.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003e\u2028Tracklist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003eA1        Red Intro\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA2        How Many Mics\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA3        Ready Or Not\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA4        Zealots\u003cbr\u003e\r\nA5        The Beast\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB1        Fu-Gee-La\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB2        Family Business\u003cbr\u003e\r\nB3        Killing Me Softly\u003cbr\u003e\r\nC1        The Score\u003cbr\u003e\r\nC2        The Mask\u003cbr\u003e\r\nC3        Cowboys\u003cbr\u003e\r\nD1        No Woman, No Cry\u003cbr\u003e\r\nD2        Manifest \/ Outro\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003e*Audio and\/or tracklist may vary slightly from the vinyl version.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size:12px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family:Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;\"\u003eLabel: SNYL\u003cbr\u003e\r\nRel.

The rhythms are combined with live instrumentation performed mainly by Wyclef Jean on guitar and bass, and by Khalis Bayyan on sax and keyboards.
