Ugh. Back when that album came out I had a downstairs neighbor who used to blast it day and night. It was like it was the only music he owned. I've avoided it for years and I'm still not sure I could ever give the thing a fair listen because of that.

Sorry Luke but I have to agree with Janszoon on this one. I think this album was one of those crossover albums that melded an RnB asthetic onto a Hip Hop beat and unleashed a whole heap of trash on the world.

It is not solely responsible but this album definitely ushered in a new way of marketing Hip Hop methinks.

Thats unfair isn't it?

Look at how the fugees were marketed, and compare them to artists now. Do you really see much of a connection between Akon, R-kelly, T-Pain with the fugees?

Are you going to blame the pioneers of punk as being responsible for blink-182 and avril lavigne?

You make it seem like every album that blends RnB is crap, which is incredibly far from reality.

I hated that fugees album.

It was like the world first hip hop album for dinner parties.

I see a connection between all those artists and The Fugees TBH. I said they are partly to blame but not all. Ordinary folks all of a sudden thought they knew Hip Hop when they heard this album and the marketing guys found a gap in the market.

It happened in the mid to late 80's with Rock music (Bon Jovi, Europe etc) and again in the mid 90's with bands like Green Day. They pushed these genres to the forefront which in turn bred similar bands. Why did heavier guitar music explode early 2000?

Marketing music is big business and The Fugees album (whether it was good or not) ushered in a new era of Urban music.
