There’s no way in hell The Fugees will ever reunite at this point. In a recent cover story for Scratch Magazine, Wyclef Jean revealed that Lauren Hill attempted to get credit for production he claims she cannot do.
“It’s real simple, if you did the beats, where are the beats, show us one beat that you did,” Clef told Scratch.
“If you bring Clef to the studio, put an MP, put an SP, put a bunch of
stuff, bring a bunch of cameras [and] say, ‘Clef, do a beat in two
minutes.’ The beat’s done. Bring Lauryn Hill
in the studio with the same camera, say we give you three hours. Matter
fact, f–k it, we’ll give you a month do a beat. She can’t put it
together!”
There’s more. Lauryn allegedly attempted to get credit for work Clef and his longtime partner Jerry Wonder made for John Legend.
“We did a remix [with] Lauryn for John Legend,
for the record ‘So High,’ Clef added. “John Legend was saying our
names. You know what she had [him] do? She was like, Take off Wyclef
and Jerry’s names. Because she wanted people to think that she was the
one doing the beat. I’m a producer and I’m a beatmaker with my cousin
Jerry Wonder, and I’m a writer. She’s a writer, a vocalist, [and] a
great [vocal] composer. And she’s great at picking out samples, she got
20 billion samples but can’t chop em up to save her life.”
