fugees - fu gee la

(And I honestly don't understand what about it is so bad as to be considered an "incident".)

"Fu Gee La" is definitely bad-ass and smooth, and The Score was a great album in so many ways. Clef's mic-rocking abilities maintained pretty well for The Carnival, but it seems like they fell short after that (although he still writes some good songs, don't get me wrong..."Thug Angels" is THE SHIT).

best song they didnt jack from somebody else?
huh? does no one know Teena Marie's "Ooh La La La"?

i'm amazed again at how some of the smartest people here still haven't figured out that uncool and/or awkward music can still be really good

Okay....Who's the Tim Dog in this that has a tv show??? ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT TIM DOG WHO DID FUCK COMPTON???

If you are, I'm complaining to my cable provider today...I must see this show....

ethan is right, BTW ...

... i mean, i heard this @ starbucks tonight, after not hearing it for years. i was stunned with how good it still sounds after all these years.

Fu Gee La is dandy. I've yet to hear a Wyclef full-length (caught some singles) and would love too. Hell, I'm even curious about his version of "What's New Pussycat?" I'd also like to hear that Bono/Jean collabo for NetAid again, but I wouldn't be surprised if they destroyed all copies.

I gotta go with "Nappy Heads (Remix)" but "FuGeeLa" close second (and "Cowboys" close third)

it's safe now to admit?????

zing!

This is the remix. This...this...this thread has been remixed. Refugee Camp Allstars.

I see what you did there.

Have been playing this in my car for a week.

word

the skit at the end of "the beast" is so funny

don't put that lil retarded leg in there

The title track is my favorite after the hits.

i can judge a character like ito judge a verdict

fake bullets can't scar me
i can smell the weak out like safari
play you out like atari
sacrifice you hari kari

^ lauryn >>

Don't put that little shrimp in my chicken fried rice.

still my favorite Fugees song, after all these years.

duhhh

yeah no doubt

Yeah that's the best single but my favorite track off this is Family Business. That part when Clef switches into maniac mode and L comes in and smooths it over with an insane verse of her own is O__o Also no Pras verse is a +

he was a good mc at that point! also The Carnival is much much better than the Lauryn disc (either of them haha)

This is so on the money.

Listening to The Score for the first time in a decade or more. "The Mask" and "Cowboys" are a good 1-2.

If I'm honest with myself, The Carnival is one of my 10 favorite rap albums of the '90s (which is a bigger deal than it sounds, given how massive the pool of competition is).

Probably in my top 40 or so. Love that album to death.

Even the skits.
