Time Warp...1998 : Horse & Carriage (Remix) | Cam'ron x Big Pun x Wyclef x Charli Baltimore x Silkk the Shocker

Circa 1998.
I was watching Night Court the other day and instantly thought about this song. Man... the whole crew used to sit around and wait for them (BET, The BOX, whoever..) to show this video (when we weren't outside conducting mischief) because it didn't get as much play as it should have. Once it came on though... if we weren't around each other, the phone was picked up immediately to call and we acted a fool like it was the best thing since life's bread lol. I still had my little "crush" on Silkk... ahh the memories. This song does JAM though... even still...16 years later. Watch the vid below::

Update: Rohan Marley responds to Wyclef's Affair with Lauryn Hill



Last week, controversy stirred up about Ms. Lauryn Hill as Wyclef prepped for the release of his new memoir (which dropped last Tuesday).  A few excerpts revealed that Wyclef had an affair with Lauryn Hill and that she led him to believe she was pregnant with his child as oppose to Rohan Marley (pictured above).  However, word got around to Lauryn's BD and he was not pleased.  Here is what Rohan had to say via TMZ:

“[Wyclef] knew from jump that was my son from the day [Lauryn] was pregnant.  They were definitely not messing around or he would have never given me the ok” 

Rohan says back then he and Lauryn were in studio sessions together night and day so there wouldn’t have been time for her to have the alleged affair Wyclef refers to.

[Wyclef] is just saying false things to get book headlines.  He knows he is frontin’ himself”.

Yow! 
However, Wyclef also responded to this via TMZ saying:

There is no way that I would have shown up in the hospital in that circumstance to wait for a baby to be born if it was not mine.  The idea of a memoir is to tell the truth.  I know that often the truth hurts, but a lie hurts even more.”

Sounds like this could get messy.   Meanwhile, Lauryn hasn’t said a word.  Smart woman. Lol.  I won’t speak too soon.  On another note, let’s see if this actually helps Clef’s sales…

Could a Lie Be the Karma to His Affair? | Wyclef Jean x Lauryn Hill edition



“She could no longer be my muse, Our love spell was broken”.  – Wyclef Jean.


I haven’t seen such a good pitch for sales since Usher’s “Confessions”…
In Wyclef’s new autobiography,Purpose: An Immigrant’s Story” which releases tomorrow, he touches on behind the curtain stories of the Fugees, the insider story of recording the album, and ultimately the downfall that broke the successful group up in 1997. 
Anyone who listened to the Fugees was torn when they heard about the break-up.  Even worse... the fact that there could possibly never be another Fugees album again.  Some speculated the departure was over money, egos etc.  However, with this new excerpt floating around, “coincidentally”, the day before the book is released… it seems it was a little deeper than we all could’ve imagined.
‘Clef explains that He and Lauryn were dating or having a passionate affair if you will, although he was also married at the time to Marie Claudinette.  Lauryn became pregnant and a curve was thrown.  ‘Clef was under the impression that the child was his; the child that ultimately proved to be fathered by Rohan Marley.  

“In that moment, something died between us.  I was married and Lauryn and I were having an affair, but she led me to believe that the baby was mine, and I couldn’t forgive that”…
With a bait story like this, Jean will definitely lure people to becoming interested in his book.   But… will the buzz secure the sales??
Personally, I am interested to find out why he was upset with her about “allegedly” misleading him, when he was committing adultery?  Was it a different situation or does Karma hurt a bit much?  I’m, also, interested into finding out where Pras falls into all of this.  It should be very interesting to see how the entire story unfolds and if any of the members will speak on it after.  Guess we’ll have to wait and see.  Until then… listen to some old tunes from the Gees.
