Haitian-born rapper of gruff voice and reflective lyrics, started with the Fugees, made his mark as a solo artist.
Wyclef Jean was the first member of the Fugees to embark on a solo career, and he proved even more ambitious and eclectic on his own. He also became hip-hop's unofficial multicultural conscience; a seemingly omnipresent activist, he assembled or participated in numerous high-profile benefit shows. The utopian one-world sensibility that fueled Wyclef's political consciousness also informed his recordings, which fused hip-hop with as many different styles of music as he could get his hands on. Jean was also a noted producer and remixer who worked with an impressive array of pop, R&B, and hip-hop talent, including Whitney Houston, Santana, and Destiny's Child. ~ Steve Huey
