  • The Fugees /ˈfuːdʒiːz/ (formerly Tranzlator Crew) were an American hip hop group who rose to fame in the mid-1990s. Their repertoire included elements of hip hop, soul and Caribbean music, particularly reggae. The members of the group were rapper/singer/producer Wyclef Jean, rapper/singer/producer Lauryn Hill, and rapper/producer Pras Michel. Deriving their name from the term refugee, Jean is Haitian, while Pras and Hill are American.The group recorded two albums—one of which, The Score (1996), was a multi-platinum and Grammy-winning success and contains their hit single %22Killing Me Softly%22—before disbanding in 1997. Hill and Jean each went on to successful solo recording careers; Michel focused on soundtrack recordings and acting, though he found commercial success with his song %22Ghetto Supastar%22. In 2007, MTV ranked them the 9th greatest Hip-hop group of all time.
