The Score is the second and final studio album by Americanhip-hop groupFugees, released worldwide on February 13, 1996, byColumbia Records. The album features a wide range of samples and instrumentation, with many aspects ofalternative hip-hop that would come to dominate the hip-hop music scene in the mid- to late-1990s. Primarily,The Score's production was handled by the Fugees themselves,Jerry Duplessis and Warren Riker, with additional production fromSalaam Remi,John Forté,Diamond D, and Shawn King. The album's guest verses are fromOutsidaz membersRah Digga,Young Zee, andPacewon, as well as John Forté, and Diamond D. Most versions of the album feature four bonus tracks, including three remixes of "Fu-Gee-La", and a short acousticWyclef Jean solo track entitled "Mista Mista".

Upon its release,The Score was a commercial success, peaking atop the U.S.Billboard 200. It also topped theTop R&B/Hip Hop Albums chart for eight weeks, becoming the longest running number one for a hip-hop group,[4] and topped the 1996 year-end chart. The singles "Killing Me Softly", "Fu-Gee-La", and "Ready or Not" also achieved notable chart success, leading the album to become the third best selling album of 1996 in the United States,[5] and helping the group achieve worldwide recognition.

The album received critical acclaim. It received a nomination forAlbum of the Year at the39th Grammy Awards, becoming the second rap album to receive a nomination in the category and the first from a hip-hop group;[6] and won theGrammy Award for Best Rap Album, along withBest R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal for "Killing Me Softly". In retrospect,The Score has garnered a considerable amount of acclaim over the years, with many music critics and publications noting it as one of the greatest albums of the 1990s, as well as one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time.The Score was included on thelist of 200 Definitive Albums in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and was ranked number 134 onRolling Stone's revised list of"The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time" (2020).[7]

As of February 2021,The Score has beencertified seven times platinum by theRecording Industry Association of America (RIAA). It is thebest-selling album by an American hip-hop act in France,[8] where the album has been certifiedDiamond. With an estimated 22 million copies sold worldwide,[9] the album has become one of thebest-selling albums of all time, at the time of its release it briefly became the best-selling hip-hop album of all time,[10][11] and remains the best-selling album by a hip-hop group.[12] As of June 2021, the album is the fifth-most streamed 1990s hip-hop album onSpotify.[13]

Background

[edit]

Although the Fugees' previous album,Blunted on Reality proved to be critically and commercially unsuccessful, Chris Schwartz, the head ofRuffhouse Records, decided to give the group another chance. In early 1995, he gave them a $135,000 advance and granted them complete artistic control for a follow-up album.[14] The group used the money for recording equipment and set up a studio in Wyclef Jean's uncle's basement, which they referred to as the Booga Basement.[14]

Recording for the album began in June 1995, and extended into November 1995[15] at what Jean described as a "relaxed pace ... It was done calmly, almost unconsciously. There wasn't any pressure—it was like 'let's make some music', and it just started forming into something amazing. It sounded like a feel-good hip-hop record to us, and it was different than what anyone was doing at the time. It was three kids from an urban background expressing themselves."[14]

In regard toThe Score's unified themes and production,Lauryn Hill commented: "It's an audio film. It's like how radio was back in the 1940s. It tells a story, and there are cuts and breaks in the music. It's almost like a hip-hop version ofTommy, like whatThe Who did for rock music."[16]

Music

[edit]

The Score was produced by a variety of producers including each member of the Fugees, as well asDiamond D,Salaam Remi, andJerry Duplessis. Although most tracks are built onsampledmelodies, live instrumentation andDJing are incorporated into multiple tracks. Wyclef Jean plays the guitar on "Family Business", whileDJ Skribblescratches on "Manifest/Outro". Nevertheless, samples are the predominant production tool onThe Score. "Fu-Gee-La" incorporates a sample ofTeena Marie's "Ooo La La La", and isinterpolated in the song's chorus. "Ready or Not" also contains a sample that is interpolated; "Ready or Not (Here I Come)" bythe Delfonics. "Manifest/Outro" contains a sample from "Rock Dis Funky Joint" byPoor Righteous Teachers, while the title track, "The Score" contains vocal samples from every track on the entire album.

Three official singles were released in promotion ofThe Score, the first of which was "Fu-Gee-La", which was released on January 9, 1996, reached theTop 40, peaking at No. 29 on theBillboard Hot 100. Additionally, the song reached No. 13 on theHot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs, and No. 2 on theHot Rap Songs chart.[17] "Fu-Gee-La" was produced bySalaam Remi and includes elements of "Ooo La La La" as performed byTeena Marie.

The second single, "Killing Me Softly", with lead vocals by Lauryn Hill, was released on May 31, 1996. "Killing Me Softly" proved to be the most successful single from the album. The song went No. 1 in 20 countries, including the United Kingdom, where it peaked atop theUK Singles Chart, and became one of theregion's best-selling singles ever. In the US, the song was not available for purchase, which made it ineligible to chart on theBillboard Hot 100 chart due to their previous rules;[18] however, it still managed to peak at No. 1 on the USMainstream Top 40 andRhythmic airplay charts.[19] Initially, the song was to be titled "Killing Them Softly", and though alluding toCharles Fox andNorman Gimbel's "Killing Me Softly with His Song", it was originally not intended to be a cover; however, the original writers refused permission for the rewrite of their song, but did allow the Fugees to do acover version.[20] In 1997, "Killing Me Softly" won the Fugees aGrammy Award forBest R&B Performance by Duo or group.[21]

The third single released from the album was "Ready or Not", which was released on September 2, 1996. In the US the song peaked at No. 34 on the Rhythmic Top 40 chart.[17] The song became their second No. 1 on the UK Singles Chart, staying at the top for two weeks.[22] The track interpolates "Ready or Not, Here I Come (Can't Hide from Love)" as performed bythe Delfonics, and also samplesEnya's "Boadicea". Initially, this sample was uncredited, and Enya was prepared to sue for copyright infringement, but decided not to when she discovered that the Fugees were notgangsta rappers.[23]

The accompanyingmusic video was directed by film directorMarcus Nispel, and was reported to have cost approximately 1.3 million dollars at the time, making it one of themost expensive music videos ever.[24] In a later interview, Fugees member Pras described the recording of "Ready or Not", stating, "The three of us was each going through some pain. Lauryn was crying when she did her vocals. It was unbelievable. To see her singing with tears coming out of her eyes, it made me want to cry too."[15]

The fourth and final single from the album, a cover ofBob Marley's "No Woman, No Cry", with lead vocals by Wyclef Jean, was released on November 18, 1996. It was produced by Wyclef Jean and Lauryn Hill, with additional production from Pras andJerry 'Wonder' Duplessis.[25] It features uncredited backing vocals from by Marley's childrenStephen andSharon Marley, as well as reggae singerPam Hall.[26] An official remix of the track, featuring Stephen Marley, was included on the group's third release,Bootleg Versions.[25] The song peaked at No. 38 on the USHot 100 Airplay chart.[27] It was more successful worldwide, peaking atop theNew Zealand Singles Chart for two weeks,[28] and No. 2 in the UK.[29]

Upon its release,The Score received critical acclaim.Entertainment Weekly writer James Bernard commented, "What a shock: a smooth, well-produced rap album that doesn't haveDr. Dre's fingerprints on it [...]The Score showcases their acrobatic lyrical techniques and restless intelligence, and unlike much East Coast rap,The Score feels warm and intimate — partly because the instruments are live but also because the Fugees sound so relaxed and casual."[32]Robert Christgau fromThe Village Voice calledThe Score "so beautiful and funny its courage could make you weep", and said the Fugees possess "black humanism" and "the gender-equality formula in which one girl learning equals two guys calling the shots".[39] Steve Huey fromAllMusic wrote that, "Even when they're not relying on easily recognizable tunes, their original material is powered by a raft of indelible hooks [...]The Score balances intelligence and accessibility with an easy assurance, and ranks as one of the most distinctive hip-hop albums of its era."[2]Cheo Hodari Coker from theLos Angeles Times wrote that, "The Score succeeds on all counts", while the Fugees are as fluid a rap group sinceA Tribe Called Quest: "Their specialty is matching a gymnastic rhyme flow and rock-solid beats with expert crooning."[33]Selwyn Seyfu Hinds ofSpin commented, "A sense of organic interaction is the hallmark of this album [....] the album's most important factor is its beats; chest-shaking, obscure-texture-having, freestyle-friendly beats."[38]Q described the album as "An impressively panoramic soundscape."[35]

However, in a mixed review,Rolling Stone writerAnn Powers commented, "The Fugees' roots in reggae gives them a solid base in song and a basic philosophy that's richer than the money-or-nothing ethic that dulls much of rap these days. Without being sanctimonious,The Score paints the ghetto as a mythical landscape, one that can inspire pride as well as sorrow. LikeWu-Tang Clan, the Fugees view the world as their movie, complete with stunts and special effects."[36]Jon Pareles ofThe New York Times found the group's "vision of ghetto life" both eccentric and realistic, although he felt "Killing Me Softly" sounds "out of place amid the hard-nosed surrealism".[40]
