The Score

Product Information

The Fugees sold over twenty-two million records worldwide and are one of the biggest-selling hip hop groups of all time. The Score''s eclecticism, social consciousness, and pop smarts drew millions of latent hip-hop listeners back into the fold, showing just how much the music had grown up. Originally released in Feburary 1996, 'The Score' is the second and final studio album by the hip hop trio. The two both met and became involved with their significant others while in a relationship with each other.

Clef, Hill and third member Pras Michael - the man responsible for getting the whole thing rolling in the late '80s - were militant and melodic, fighters for change and devotees of pop music. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. The song went to the top of the charts in the US, Australia, the UK, France, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland and New Zealand. A breath of fresh air in the gangsta-dominated mid-90s, the Fugees' breakthrough album, 'The Score', marked the beginning of a resurgence in alternative hip-hop.
