What Happened To The Fugees?


Some of the most painful feuds emerge from once-close relationships, including the bitter dispute that led to the breakup of The Fugees, one of the greatest artistic collaborations of the past several decades. The group's second album, The Score, was a massive hit, a timeless masterpiece that straddled the borders between rap, hip-hop, R&B, and rock.

A third album never arrived. Lauryn Hill temporarily left the group before The Score's 1996 release, most likely due to her turbulent romantic relationship with bandmate Wyclef Jean, who was married. The next year, Hill started seeing Bob Marley's son, Rohan. She became pregnant and, according to Jean's memoir, lied to him about the child's paternity.

Understanding The Greatest Beef In R&B History


Not only do the Wrap-Up Magazine feel R. Kelly should be crowned the King of R&B, he also should go down as being part of R&B's greatest beef of all time!

From Down Low through Busted, R Kelly and Ronald Isley made some of the best hit songs together. If you’re a 90’s R&B head like myself, you’ve probably witnessed the longstanding feud between R. Kelly and Mr. Biggs (Ron Isley). Year after year and song after song these two were at each other’s necks.

What Happened To Lil Jon And Crunk Music?


Was Lil Jon the last of "Crunk Music?" This was a time in rap music that had a big and short impact on the community.

The group signed to Atlanta’s Mirror Image Records, and in 1997, released their first album, distributed by Ichiban Records. A couple years later, Lil Jon & his Boyz started BME Recordings, and released their sophomore album.

Comparing Lil Jon’s stage presence to the Beastie Boys, Leach immediately tried to sign the group to TVT Records. He succeeded, and in 2001 released Put Yo Hood Up.
