Perhaps the stressed hacks over at Contact were just too shell-shocked and disappointed that The Fugees really are going to make a second album to pay attention to what they were saying. But there's been a terrible misunderstanding. Pras said:
"We're working on it. Clef and Lauryn's putting tracks together while I drop my solo album."
Which Contact have interpreted as meaning that Pras isn't going to bother with the solo stuff, rather than releasing it:
The former FUGEES stars have dropped their solo projects to reform the hip hop band - nine years after the group split.
Still, at least they didn't interpret "drop" any more literally - otherwise they'd have run a headline "Pras to fumble and allow record to fall to the floor."
For whatit's worth, "The Score" (1996) was Fugees' second album proper following their debut "Blunted on Reality" (1994).
ReplyDeleteI guess another Fugees album would at least save us from the pain of a Wyclef Jean solo effort. For a little while anyway.
