The Score is a 1996 album released by The Fugees. While being their
most famous album, it is not their debut - as is often suggested. Their
debut album was Blunted on Reality (1994).
The Score features many aspects of alternative hip hop music that would
come to dominate the scene in the late 1990s. Among these are reggae
and soul influences, female vocals and "conscious" lyrics dealing with
social problems rather than "gangsta" tales. The production was mostly
handled by The Fugees themselves and Jerry 'Wonder' Duplessis, but
Salaam Remi, John Forté, Shawn King and Diamond D also produce. The
guest raps are from Outsidaz' members Rah Digga, Young Zee and Pacewon
as well as Omega, John Forte and Diamond D.
