Once again, the Fugees disbanded and went their separate ways. This year, 25 years later, the group was set to reunite for a classic tour, the group. The album never materialized as relationships within the group deteriorated. In February 1996, the legendary New Jersey-born hip-hop trio The Fugees released the classic album The Score. Fans around the globe rejoiced, and several months later the reunited trio released a single called "Take It Easy." They then embarked on a worldwide tour and began recording their long-awaited third album. In 2000 Wyclef returned with Ecleftic: 2 Sides II a Book, and reached out for a Fugees reunion on the track "Where Fugees At?" That question was finally answered five years later, when cable comedy king Dave Chappelle got the three to reunite at a party in New York (which would be filmed and later released as a movie). The album earned her 11 Grammy nominations she took home five. In '97 Wyclef released Refugee All-Stars' The Carnival, while Pras had a hit with "Ghetto Supastar." Lauryn Hill dropped The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill in '98. The album brought live instruments, reggae beats and soulful vocals into the mix, and featured huge hits like "Fu-Gee-La," "Ready or Not," and a cover of Roberta Flack's "Killing Me Softly." Critically acclaimed and thrust into superstardom, the Fugees went on to win two Grammys, one for Best Rap Album, and another for Best R&B Performance. They came back with a vengeance three years later, burning up the charts with numerous singles from their multiplatinum follow-up The Score.
A New Jersey trio originally called Tranzlator Crew, the Fugees first appeared in 1993 with the release of their slept-on debut Blunted on Reality.
