Wyclef Jean
Album : Carnival Vol. II : Memoirs Of An Immigrant
Released date : December 4th 2007
Label : columbia Records

With The Carnival II : Memoirs of an Immigrant, his sixth full-length studio album, Wyclef Jean continues the autobiographical musical odyssey he began a decade ago with his 1997 triple-platinum debut solo album, Wyclef Jean Presents The Carnival Featuring Refugee All-Stars (aka "The Carnival"). Wyclef gave his fans their first taste of "The Carnival II" with the release of the album’s lead-in single, "Sweetest Girl (Dollar Bill)," featuring Akon, Lil’ Wayne and introducing Niia. Released in August, the single rapidly made its first Billboard chart appearance entering the Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart at #3. "Sweetest Girl (Dollar Bill)" is now available digitally.

According to Wyclef, The Carnival II is "a continuation of ’Gone Till November" (his 1997 Top 10 signature hit from The Carnival). I focus a lot on the songwriting." For his much anticipated new album, Wyclef has once again called upon his friends, showcasing his musical dexterity as he draws from an extraordinary and diverse roster of collaborating guest artists including Paul Simon (on "Fast Car"), Mary J. Blige, T.I., Norah Jones, Akon, Serj Tankian (of System Of A Down) (on "Trouble Again"), Lil’ Wayne, and Shakira, to name a few. Wyclef produced the entire album with his long-time production partner, Jerry "Wonda" Duplessis, with whom he has worked since the beginning of the Fugees.

The Carnival II : Memoirs of an Immigrant is the first full-length album from Wyclef Jean since 2006, when the artist struck a chord in mass pop consciousness with "Hips Don’t Lie," the chart-topping Grammy-nominated international smash hit duet with Shakira.

The first single is "Sweetest Girl (Dollar Bill)" featuring Akon, Lil Wayne & Niia.

Clef is one of the most positive today’s rapper . you Listen to music in his album instead big noise and profanities. As an immigrant he has accomplished his American dreams. I will buy his album. he deserves it. Most of the rapper now they are ignorants and far behind produce musics. they are showing off cars, jewels ,. Thats very stupid where in this country Black earn the lowest income. i will only support artists who make good music.black , white, Latino etc
