Fugees are reportedly making a comeback album, after 27 years

Ms. Lauryn Hill, Wyclef Jean, and Pras are not only reuniting as the Fugees for a tour, but they also plan on releasing a new album.

According to a report Page Six published last week, the group is putting together their first album as a trio in 27 years. The plans about the project have been kept under lock and key for some time, but all three artists have alluded to a new Fugees album within the past few months. Recently, Lauryn and her son YG Marley dropped a subtle hint about new music coming soon.

The last time Fugees officially released new music as a trio was back in 1996 when they dropped The Score featuring songs like "Ready or Not," "Killing Them Softly," and "No Woman, No Cry." Their second studio album topped the Billboard 200 chart and won the Grammy for Best Rap Album in 1997. The trio went their separate ways to work on solo projects, but they have reunited on several occasions in recent years.

The news about their third album broke just days before the BET Awards 2024. Lauryn Hill took the stage with a massive live band and performed songs from her debut solo album The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. She was later joined by her son YG Marley, who performed "Survival" and "Praise Jah In The Moonlight." Hill also brought out Wyclef Jean to perform "Fu-Gee-La" and provide a better glimpse at their upcoming joint tour "The Miseducation Anniversary Tour."

Prior to Lauryn's wink about the album, both Wyclef and Pras also signalled that an album might be in the works.
