She later joined forces with Pras Michel and his cousin Wyclef Jean to form the group Fugees.
The trio issued two albums, including The Score (1996), which included Lauryn Hill on lead vocals and gave rise to the smash song “Killing Me Softly.”
She became the first woman to win the Grammy Award for Best Rap Album thanks to it.
In the following years, Hill worked with Nas on “If I Ruled the World (Imagine That)” and wrote “A Rose Is Still a Rose” for Aretha Franklin.
The band broke up in 1997 as a result of her turbulent relationship with Jean, and soon after that she started working on a solo record.
