Former Fugees leader Wyclef Jean is convinced he’s about to release the album of his career. The album, which will be his fifth, is a hip-hop themed world album.
The Haiti-born rapper, singer and producer is working on “Carnival II: Memoirs of An Immigrant”, which will be released in October. The first single “the sweetest girl” features Akonwhose hook samples Method Man from the Wu-Tang classic C.R.E.A.M., and whose second verse gives the heartfelt street talk he is known for, and lil’ wayne. The combination speaks for itself…
The album is a sequel to his 1997 solo debut The Carnival, an effort that music website All Music Guide hailed as “one of those rare hip-hop moments that came out of nowhere and rewrote the rules”.
There is also bad news for the fans though, Pras’ said that those waiting on another fugee album, will wait for long time!
To make you wait, here is Clef’s video with T.I “You know what it is”.
