- Will the Fugees ever reunite for one more run? That question is finally answered directly as Pras visits Ebro in the Morning. During the conversation he revealed why they won't get back together, what went down behind the scenes, and a secret offer that was the last straw. He also is very candid on rumors surrounding Lauryn Hill writing her own lyrics, and the lawsuit and claims about her not giving others credit on some of her biggest hits.
Pras has some things going on himself! With new business opportunities in the tech world he announces throughout the show.

Pras didn’t just see the beginning of The Fugees, he was the beginning of The Fugees.
Pras' mind is deep. I could listen to him all day. Mentor.
35:51 Pras on Fugees Reunion
you the MVP
good I want a pras less reunion anyways pras wack
50 min video and all I wanted was to hear is why there's not gonna be a Fugees reunion. I shoulda looked for this post first. 😕
Thanks mate
STARTINGSOMESHIT thank you
Pras is very underrated
Yo get Pras his own show!! he dropping logic!!
Nope, jewels shouldn't just be given away. I prefer to talk, and meet people individually to learn something. Not just listen to a show where millions of people are gonna hear it. Makes it more special if that makes sense.
Pras out there looking like Papoose's older brother
Who??
@@PAMCMLXXXV who, what? What are you asking?
Huh
I was thinking the same thing @Troy G.
Pras was always the brains behind the Fugees, the most underrated perhaps, yet & still, so unbelievably gifted.
I always waited for his part to come in on all of their tracks because I knew it'd be on point.
I won't lie though, I always thought the Fugees would never break up.
I was a "Fugee Fanatic", and I'm not ashamed to say it. For years and years (even after they all did solo projects), I honestly still believed in and hoped for a reunion! With John Forte,,,you know what I mean,, all of them.
I thought the same to they would get back together. Pray told Wyclef dont mess With Lauryl. He mix business with pleasure that destroyed the group. WYCLEF got married n still was having a affair with Lauryn. He knew she was in love with his doggie As*. Wyclef destroyed the Fugees. I love the Fugees❤❤
You was right, the fugess back together 🙏👑👑👑👑👑
@@elcapune5736 YEP!!!!
Do you vote? Hugh
Do you vote? Where?
Do you vote? What u mean
😂😂😂
Nibbles187 That was funny @ the same time I respect that he didn't come out & lie or front like he's more involved then what he is
Renece NJB Thomas lol but he lied and acted like he didn’t vote
90 million dollars is a nice way to help recover from heartbreak.
You have to give Pras credit for demystifying the whole Lauryn hill and Robert Glasper situation.. he gave great insight
I think he may have confused the point actually. He spoke more on lyric writing and "production". When he says production it seems he is referring to classic hip hop type production which is different than live instrumentation and Jazz type production. Lauryn was working with bad ass classically trained jazz cats on her album. This is what made the album so beautiful though. AT the same time, if you only have a dope melody you may or may not have a song. In order to turn a melody in to a song you need key changes, chord progressions, a break as well as dope lyrics (assuming there is a vocalist on the song) and an arrangement that makes everything fit together. I think what happened is Lauryn was coming from a hip hop background had some dope song ideas and melodies that she brought to these musicians and they assisted her with turning those ideas in to classic songs and a classic album but then she didn't want o give them the credits they deserved. Either she didn't understand the roles they played or she was so full of her own hype that she felt she didn't have to and they should be honored just to work with her. You can see some evidence to support my theory in her second attempt at a solo project- The MTV Unplugged album which shows amazing promise lyrically and melodically but was never really "finished". You can feel the strength of her spirit and will in the songs but they lack the finishing touches of arrangement, proper chord structure, etc... It's a shame we as a listening audience never got more of what Lauryn could give us but I fear it's more Lauryn's fault than anyone else's. You can not treat your collaborators as though they are beneath you (unless you have Stevie Wonder or Prince type talent where you can write lyrics, come up with melodies, and play just about every instrument).
@@moebettamusicvids You broke this down so eloquently & on point. Salute!
@moe betta I agree with your point but I don't believe he was confused. The question proposed to Pras was "did lauryn hill write all the lyrics" and he replied '1000 percent'. He further explained lauryn hill hip hop background contributed to her perspective of what she considers the role of production should be. A production consisting of Jazz, classical artist and muscians.We both know within the jazz and classical world the roles are well defined in comparison to an hip hop setting. From the narrative surrounding this discussion of credibility of production is quite obvious the supporting musicans were aware of their roles. Lauryn Hill was not. If you read lauryn hill response to Robert Glasper, she referred to her ignorance without admitting to it. The ongoing argument has brought to light a number of comcerns to me as a wavering fan of Lauryn Hill - her inexperience during the production of miseducation, her unsubstantiated arrogance (agreeing with Robert Glasper) and lack of humility... however what was also brought to my attention was how ultra sensitive Lauryn is and the unappreciated position of Pras, playing the diplomat between two incredible talents with toxic personalities and yet remains candid and respectful to both parties.
Moe Betta But Lauryn did produce a few songs herself like A rose is a rose in 1997 for Aretha Franklin and that was before she had that team that helped her produce Miseducation. I think Lauryn wrote all her stuff most definitely and I think she had minimal guitar skills but when it came to other instruments, she probably just directed people to play it how she heard in her head. I feel like they made variations and she agreed to it and they probably felt like the variations they made deserved to have more credit than they got. But idk, that’s just my theory. I just feel like she directs instrument players and sometimes she probably allows them to have a little freedom in how they play it but that can be a sticky situation when they add something to the song that was their own idea. Lyrically, i have no doubt she wrote all of it.

Lauryn Hill was not working with no "bad ass classically trained Jazz cats".
The People who sued her never had a hit before and had only a couole forgetable minor hits after working with other artist.
The miseducation was the pinnicle and highlight of their careers.
And most of the music of miseducation were replayed by James Poysner and Che Pope for the final cut .
Lauryn Hill found them, named them New-Ark and helped to develop them, not the other way around.
Most of the music on the miseducation are samples from 70s music that lauryn liked.
Beyonce and Alicia Keys did the same formula for "Songs in A minor" and "dangerously in love".
They Listen to old songs the like and put a hip hop beat to it to the cattiest part of it and then sing their song over it.
Lauryn Hill just did it better than everyone else.
Because of this I will watch every Pras interview that I can find. Brilliant
Pras dropping gems!
Rob John As per usual.
Word!
I have always had mad respect for Pras, not a big mouth, dope lyricist and holds his own anywhere. Talented person
Damn, never thought I’d walk away from Pras interview NOT wanting a Fugees reunion lol. Seriously (and sadly), it sounds like there’s some trauma or bad memories that comes with them getting back together. Like remember when they reunited at the BET Awards and Lauryn started crying during her verse? I feel like that’s a result of those times now. Crazy
gawd, he's so much more open here than he was with vlad
Because he's not stupid
Excuse me but can. I just say, thank you Hot97 and Ebro in the morning. Your interviews are the dopest. As a 40 year old black female. You still manage to captivate the demographic more than not. Good lookin...
Big Fact!
breaks my heart when he says he'll never do a reunion, and the relationship between the three of them. I get it but still is heartbreaking.
It was a pleasure for me to meet Pras ideas today. Great vibration! Lots of Energy! AYIBOBO!
Pras is right. It doesn't matter what Cesar's name is. The system is still corrupt. AND at the highest levels they all party and do business together. Dem vs Rep is theater to give people the illusion of choice.
Facts
His new music is actually dope He got a song with Young M.A. that is heat rocks
