Lauryn Hill claimed that she included Fugees in tour plans to 'aid' Pras Michél's legal battles, and called his lawsuit 'baseless.'
Ms. Lauryn Hill is slamming Pras Michél’s lawsuit against her, in which he claims she mismanaged Fugees ‘ tour and that it was a “devious attempt to make a big score for herself.” In a statement Tuesday, Hill called the suit “baseless,” claiming that she decided to incorporate the Fugees to “aid [Michél’s] legal defense” amid his court battle with the Department of Justice. In her response, Hill said the lawsuit “notably omits” that Michél was given an overpaid advance of $3 million for the last tour and that he had yet to “repay substantial loans” she made to him as an “act of goodwill” so he could pay off his legal fees. At the time of the Fugees tour, Michél was facing large legal fees over a battle with the Department of Justice after being named a co-defendant with Jho Low, who allegedly stole $4.5 billion from Malaysia’s sovereign wealth fund.
