Wyclef Jean recently went public with the reason behind the Fugees failed reunion attempt. During an interview with Scratch magazine, Jean accused Lauryn Hill of attempting to take production credit for music she did not produce. He said, "It’s real simple, if you did the beats, where are the beats, show us one beat that you did. If you bring Clef to the studio, put an MP, put an SP, put a bunch of stuff, bring a bunch of cameras (and) say, ’Clef, do a beat in two minutes.’The beat’s done. Bring Lauryn Hill in the studio with the same camera, say we give you three hours. Matter fact, f**k it, we’ll give you a month do a beat. She can’t put it together!"

Jean added that the issue came to head while he and producer Jerry Wonder were working on a remix for John Legend. He said, "We did a remix (with) Lauryn for John Legend, for the record ’So High.’John Legend was saying our names. You know what she had (him) do? She was like, ’Take off Wyclef and Jerry’s names.’Because she wanted people to think that she was the one doing the beat. I’m a producer and I’m a beatmaker with my cousin Jerry Wonder, and I’m a writer. She’s a writer, a vocalist, (and) a great (vocal) composer. And she’s great at picking out samples, she got 20 billion samples but can’t chop ’em up to save her life."
