After a very lengthy hiatus, which many assumed was a split, The Fugees are ready to get back together.
Wyclef Jean, one member of the hip hop trio, which also includes Lauryn Hill and Pras, said everyone is talking on good terms.
"All the Fugees are talking. We're all definitely talking," Jean revealed to andPOP in an interview this week. "The energy is definitely good energy."
Jean was hesitant to reveal too much information, but said the future will be clearer to the rest of the world in the next two weeks.
In the past few years, Jean went through a public war of words with Pras. He also has not had a good relationship with Hill since they released their last album, The Score, in 1996, which went on to win Best Album at the Grammy Awards.
"I spoke to Lauryn. I spoke to Pras. And just real good energy, good vibes."
Jean explained how other hip hop groups have capitalized off the Fugees by using them as a blueprint.
"It's important for the Fugees to come back and just show them what the next chapter is because there's a whole other chapter that they didn't touch yet."
Jean said new material from the Fugees probably wouldn't debut for another year and a half.
HIP hop legends The Fugees are set to re-form. The band are making trips to the studio, cutting tracks and writing a new album. The reunion comes despite spats between Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean.
A source close to the band claims: 'Lauryn and Wyclef patched up their differences. They realised they have a talent and should use it.'
Former Fugess Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean reunited onstage on Friday at a concert in Malaysia to raise money for tsunami-devastated communities.
The pair joined performers including actor Jackie Chan, the Backstreet Boys, Black Eyes Peas and Boyz II Men before 15,000 fans at the seven-hour Forces of Nature event.
They sang Fugees hits "Killing Me Softly," "Ready or Not" and "Fu-Gee-La."
During an emotionally charged gig, Jean lead the crowd in a chant of "We'll never forget the tsunami victims" and instructed the stadium lights to be turned off while crowd members waved lighted cell phones.
The concert, at Kuala Lumpur's Stadium Putra, raised $2.6 million for tsunami-affected areas in Indonesia, Thailand, Sri Lanka and India.
