Yeuch

I only just managed to find 9 to tick -- the bad stuff here is ABSOLUTELY AWFUL i.e. Garbage x 2, Beck, Everything But the Girl; RATM; and although I have a sentimental soft spot for Ready or Not, overall the Fugees are a BAD THING.

How so! They gave us Lauryn Hill!

Don't you mean Lauryn Hill took the Fugees away from us?

Fugees great, The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill greatest.

Wyclef and Pras solo were both pretty good fun too.

New Ying Yang Twins/Wyclef Jean/Collipark collab, "Dangerous," is lunatic, in a good way. They sing Hall & Oates' "Maneater" and Ram Jam's "Black Betty," mooshing a whole lot of stuff together. More a moosh-up than a mash-up.

Garbage isn't bad
