They've had their fair share of ups and downs in the past 9 years but the members of super group The Fugees have brushed aside personal issues to reform and release their first material since 1996. Their sophomore album "The Score" was the biggest selling hip-hop album of all time back when it was released, so as expected high hopes rest on this upcoming offering. But don't get too excited just yet, debut single "Take It Easy" won't be arriving until early next year. The Fugees, comprising members Lauryn Hill, Wycleff Jean and Pras, were signed in 1993 and released their debut album "Blunted On Reality" soon after. During the hiatus that followed the phenomenal success of 1996's "The Score", each of the members basked in certain degrees of solo success.
But now, it is time for a comeback. Just take a look at some of the lyrics from "Take It Easy" and The Fugees will tell you as such. "I ain't rhymed in minute, but y'all ain't catch up, and that ain't blood on your shirt, that's ketchup!," raps Wycleff, before Pras adds "Back with the Fugees, fo' fighting for a few billions." "Yup," sings Hill. "It's Fugees entirely!" |
