There seems to be a little bit of a divide in the Fugees camp and most of the blame is falling on Lauryn Hill. That's at least what the iconic rapper and singer feels is the case, according to past quotes from her Instagram. "Some media outlet’s penchant for sensationalism and clickbait headlines have seemingly created a narrative that has affected ticket sales for the North American portion of the tour". That's what she feels led to her ultimately having to cancel the reunion tour in the states. Her making last minute changes to performances is nothing new, although past injuries have been a consistent sidelining factor. Still, it's been a constant theme and fellow band mate Pras has taken notice of it as well.
In fact, he was even dissing Lauryn Hill on an unreleased song not too long ago. However, he claims it had nothing to do with her, the timing of it certainly would suggest otherwise. Pras also has been feeling the Fugees fans' sadness and disappointment. "They are paying their hard-earned money to see you. We’re going on almost three decades of our existence, individually and as a group. To have people still interested in wanting to come see you, man, you have to be grateful".
Lauryn Hill Gives Her Old High School A Night To Remember
If Pras wasn't dissing Lauryn Hill on "Bar Mitzva", he might be speaking out soon against her for real once he sees this video. According to a tweet from The Art Of Dialogue and an article from HipHopDX, Hill was recorded giving an impromptu show at her high school's reunion. Specifically, the free medley show took place at Columbia High School in Maplewood, New Jersey. She performed hits from her solo catalog and Fugees classics like "Ready or Not", even altering the lyrics to show love to her alma mater. "CHS taking over / Buffalo soldier / Dreadlock Rasta". Fans were quite upset about seeing this footage, as they are calling her out for performing at the wrong reunion. "She showed up a year late and sang to the wrong reunion", one X user half jokes.
