Fugees - Wanna Be

I like this better than Foxy or Take It Easy, but this still isn't great. Blah.

This sucks. They should just scrap this whole project.

Whoever ripped it was talking on Yahoo so you hear all the chimes from IMs so I guess I can post this...

Pitchfork gave it 3/5.

This is more like it: 'Clef, L-Boogie, and What's-his-face return, after that greasy-ass first single-- if we say its name it might appear!-- with a rootsy tune that chances at recapturing the humanist vibes of 1996's The Score. Don't get it twisted: This is no "Fu-Gee-La" (Lauryn's flow, as has been the case with her recent material, is muddled; the beat, a rehash of Larry Smith's "Orange Krush", sounds dated). You can't, however, front on Ms. Hill's hook, which, along with 'Clef's conscious quips, is both passionate and poppy. I could be wrong but I don't think this sucks. [Will Dukes]
