@chicagoeverwhere ....retard. Praz fucking PRODUCED most of the tracks on the album. Without him, there would be no Fugees. It's a group effort, and he does have some sick rhymes on a couple songs, "manifest" comes to mind.
listen,the fugees swagg was the original gangsta,that rude bwoy style(caribbean jamaica,bahamas,haitian,etc.) big up,all those female rappers hail the queen.rapping and singing the best to ever do it ms.hill,wyclef and pras were in a league by themselves,their ability to reach the audience and perform was next to none,fugees 4 life!
check out ashanti going crazy in da chair lol i bet she didnt know if should would be making a crowd move like dat too one day lol. claaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasic
i've been trying to figure out who the dancehall mc's are... they sing that tenor saw song "ring the alarm". not sure if thats him. the guy with the white hat sounds like sizzla kinda
@stereoarchitect Tenor saw died in 88, so that's definitely not him (he was a thin guy, also). Definitely not Sizzla with the white cap either. I would say the guy in black is MAFIA while the other guy sounds like MAD SPIDER (check the Nappy Heads Mad Spider remix from the Fugess Bootleg Album).
SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTT! this is music, I say it a million times more, this IS music. Fuck the shit playing today on the fucking radio.
Lauren came to the Apollo and got booed at 13 years old. Went into the basement and came back almost two years later to the day with Wyclef and Pras to R-I-P it!!! This is classic rap. Reminds me of the atmosphere at the Fresh Fest shows.
I get mad frustrated when I rhyme, thinking of all them kids (YMCMB) that try to do this for all the wrong reasons. Seasons change mad things rearrange but it all stays the same like the love Dr. Strange. I'm tame like the rapper, get red like a snapper when they do that got yo whole block saying tru dat if only they knew that it was you who was irregular, sold ya soul for some secular muzack that's wack!!! Lauryn honey... no one else compares!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn jus 9yrs b4 dis they were booin LH off stage... See what determination and hard work brings... they were on top... need music like dis now more den ever!!!
And what makes this such a great performance is because Lauryn Hill got BOOED the last time she went to the Apollo and to have everybody rockin' like that makes it even more special.
What was pras trying to do at 1:30 to 1:34. Tryin' to grab a little limelight, were we, huh, Pras? lol. Lauryn's flow is eternal and the fact is she brought out the best in Clef.
Lauryn Swag is Super Dope as hell!... Damn the Fugee's was built around her that's why its no more. She kills shit every time don't give a Fuck what it is!
