Fugees member Pras Michél is facing 22 years in prison for his 2023 conviction in a federal money laundering conspiracy, for which he’s seeking a retrial.
He is essentially accused of being a Chinese spy for his role in a scheme to wield political influence, though in a new Variety feature, he says he “never wanted to be a spy.”
In the same story, he says he’s finished with the Fugees forever.
He recently sued Lauryn Hill for fraud over Fugees’ cancelled North American tour, and says he won’t be joining Hill and Wyclef Jean for the European leg, even if it happens
Hill has called Michél’s lawsuit “baseless” and “full of false claims and unwarranted attacks.”
