I personally love this song. Wyclef Jean is coming back strong with his new single, “Sweetest Girl” featuring Akon, Lil Wayne, and newcomer Niia. Wyclef’s new album, Carnival II (Memoirs of an Immigrant) is set to hit stores on November 6th.
In related news, Wyclef has been talking mess about Lauryn Hill. Here is what he said needs to happen before The Fugees release another album:
“The first thing that needs to happen…is after my psychiatric evaluation. Lauryn Hill… Mrs Hill… The Hill… – Should go see a psychiatrist – period – Just seek help!” [source]
It’s OK. Wyclef knows how to make a good album!!
He’s right about Lauryn Hill, I’m afraid.
Im feeling this song…nice!
Wyclef needs to sell music so he got w/ Akon. Its only ok.
Crap..I thought I woulda been first to comment..lol..guess another time
I feel bad 4 l boogie- sh’s messed up.. guess it was too good 2 b tru.. can’t listen to the track I’m at work
LMAO!!! @ HIS COMMENT ABOUT LAURYN HILL……WELL AT LEAST SOMEONE JUST BLUNTLY TOLD HER SHE NEEDS TO KNOW. AND I MISS THE OLD LAURYN AND WANT HER TO COME BACK I WAS LISTENING TO THE MISEDUCATION OF LAURYN HILL THE OTHER DAY AND I JUST STARTED THINKING DAG WHAT HAPPENED TO HER..ALL THAT WEED PROBABLY KILLED HER BRAIN CELLS BECAUSE I KNOW SHE WAS AND OR IS STILL SMOKING IT….AND WEED THESE DAYS U JUST CAN’T TRUST THEY BE LACED WITH COKE AND WHAT NOT….PPL GET IT TOGETHER.
WACK! CORNY! WORTHLESS!
YA KNOW I THINK WYCLEF PUT SOME HATIAN VOODOO ON LAURYN.
WYCLEF AINT SHIT , NICCA YOU CONTRIBUTED TO HER MENTAL BREAKDOWN, HATIN ON HER AND SHIT, YOU JUST MAD CAUSE SHE AINT BEAT FOR YA FAKE ASS, FACE IT THE FUGEES HAD THERE TIME, MOVE ON .
wyclef lost his haitian and immigration status. he messed up when he did that song with T.I ‘you know what it is’. he was trying to sound jamaican,when he clearly was haitian. fuck wyclef he bullshit and should never call himself haitian again. if I see this dude in person I would smack his haitian flag off him. he is a disgrace to anyone that’s haitian after that video T.I .
sorry I’m usually a peacful person but he got me md with that video. I hope he reads this I would say this to him in his face. u aint a zoe no mo homo!!
Not really a Wyclef fan but the song is aight!
Clef needs to SHUT UP!!!! He partially to blame for her current situation anyway….Sh*t ALOT of misEducation is about HIM!!! Shady ass….he really needs to shut his mouth and ask for forgiveness…karma baby…karma!
love the song……
Hey Mika where ya been hidin? holla at me u know where to find me ;0:
This is my jam.. Screamin dolla dolla bills ya’ll!
LMAO!!! I DIDN’T KNOW ALL OF THAT. CAN SOMEBODY PLS SCHOOL ME ON WHAT HAPPENED WITH HIM AND LAURYN AND Y MOST OF MISEDUCATION SONGS WAS ABOUT HIM? BUT HE STILL RIGHT THOUGH I THINK SHE NEEDS A THERAPIST OR SOMETHING BECAUSE SHE’S SUPPOSED TO BE TOO STRONG OF A WOMAN TO LET ANY MAN BREAK HER DOWN LIKE DAT.
im loving it and it was genius to have lil wayne on the track.akon too.
Ummm im not respectin Wyclef rude azz opinion on my girl Lauyrn Hill, yes ma may not be in her right state of mind(AS OF NOW) but, that doesnt give him the right to be calling her out like that. I will always and still love you Ms. Lauryn Hill…im not judgin you, only God can, but I will pray that the true, real and beautiful Lauryn Hill will come back to us. And to me no damn shrink can heal Ms Lauryn back to her beautiful self or to anew like God can. Stay Strong Lauryn wheres theres a storm theres sunlight after. Now, for my opnion on the video, okay and okay song…..Wyclef why dont you just grab Lauryn, shake her but..lol..slap a mic in front of her with a beautiful song and tell her to let loose all troubles, worries and fears and see if she comes back to us….I truly do miss her voice. She is one of a kind

Well, I think the song and video are better than okay. I like them both.
ALL THIS OPINION STATING HIM AND PRAS BEEN DOIN LATELY IS REAL DISLOYAL. THEY ARE INTITLED TO THERE OPINION, I’M NOT SAYIN THAT…
BUT HOW YOU GOING TO HATE ON THE PERSON WHO GARNED THE FUGEES THE MOST SUCCESS. W/ OUT LAURYN WHERE THE HELL WOULD WYCLEF BE??? I KNOW IT TAKES ALL 3 TO MAKE THE FUGEES, BUT SHE WAS LIKE MIKE JORDAN W/ THE BULLS. THE BULLS NEEDED RODMEN, & PIPPEN AS WELL TO MAKE IT WORK, BUT WOULDN’T HAVE BEEN BLANK W/ OUT JORDAN!
WYCLEF PUT OUT, I DON’T KNOW HOW MANY ALBUMS, AND NOT ONE IS EVEN TOUCHING LAURYN’S MISEDUCATION! AND PRAS HAD 1 SOLO HIT THANKS TO THE CRED OF ODB AND MYA(WHEN SHE WAS PEAKING.) PRAS IS ONLY SEMI-CURRENT BECAUSE HIS NAME WAS LINKED TO THE POSSIBLE FUGEE REUNION. BESIDES CRIBS WHAT THE HELL HAS HE BEEN DOING???
THE FIRST THING CLEF NEEDS TO DO BEFORE STEPPING INTO A STUDIO TO RECORD ANYTHING, HE NEEDS TO TALK TO SOMEONE ON HOW TO BE SUCCESSFUL AT IT, ALA LAURYN HILL.
^^^*GARNERED*
i love it
Wyclef came hard on this one…I love that song!!
And I wanna know why he didn’t tell Lauryn to get help when he was phucking her!! LOL
wwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaacccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
The song is cool but so was 911 with Mary on it and a couple of others but the reality is, is that he never had a good album since The Carnival and that real talk. So i expect this album to be just like everything following up the Carnival like three good songs and the rest FILLERS.
I love the song now because of the video….
I felt the same way about him after speaking patois in T.I.’s video but I 4gave him. Seriously, how many people reps Haiti for us like he does (Everyone be mad vague about their nationality and shit. You wouldn’t believe how many celebs are of Haitian descent).
Anyways, I’m just gonna pray for Lauryn’s recovery….
I THINK LAURYN HILL NEEDS SOME SINCERE GUIDANCE AND MANAGEMENT. THE LINE BETWEEN BRILLIANCE AND INSANITY IS REMARKABLY THIN. I MEAN IF SHE CAME OUT WITH AN ALBUM TOMORROW, SHE WILL GO 10x PLATINUM. SHE IS A TRUE ARTIST IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD. HER MUSIC COMES FROM A VERY SOULFUL PLACE…..SHE WILL NEVER BE REPLACED AND AS MUCH AS MOST OF YOU HATE IT. SHE WAS THE SHIT AT ONE POINT IN TIME!!!
….da fuck? why yall so damn angry at this man. u act like lauryn hill aint lost her damn mind forreal. and wyclef produced and wrote many of the fugees songs so don’t go off saying they wuttin worth a damn without lauryn. ANYWAYS!!! the song is tight
OMG I’d like this song if Akon’s horrible jarring voice wasnt in it smh….
Damn I hate that man!…Just hearing his name and voice he makes me shudder and physically sick smh….

….. and wyclef produced and wrote many of the fugees songs so don’t go off saying they wuttin worth a damn without lauryn.
ok if LAURYN HILL ISN’T THE FUGEES….why the hell they not performing without her now???? And Clef wasn’t concerned about her mental till it affected him…..he wasn’t concerned about the outcome when he was screwing her for YEARS!!! Karma baby ALL DAY LONG!!!
i’m surprised they didn’t open up wit a *”konvict,konvict” cuz akon was on it..this song will grow on me it’s aiiite..
Wyclef is kind of like a dead fish to me for some reason.Nobody really notices wycelf until he mention something about Lauryn Hill.Because if you listen to The Score Lauryn made the shit hot, I mean Clef and Pras was cool but if Lauryn wasn’t in The Fugees who would listen?
I mean seriously, are you a jah-fakin, hatian?!? What accent is that you’re singing in? I am glad you got rid of your recedding hairline locs! Sure wasn’t a good look!
Yeah, I’m sure Wyclef played a role in driving L-Boogie crazy, but where as her Miseducation is at the ‘immortal’ status, his 40+ year old ass is still trying to make it!
God, I hate your accent!
Like the song and the video
I know it was fucked up that wyclef was speakin patois in the TI video , but do u know how much he does for Haiti, and he actually rep us very, he was reinacting a secene in the movie ”shottas”. U don’t see Usher, Lil Fizz, and even Garcelle Beauvais(who was born n raised in Haiti) celebrate their heritage.
no comment on his comment about lauryn hill… do whatever
meanwhile……..
i’m really feeling this song, not really b/c of the video and vocals, but because of the lyrics, this is a really deep song and thats wat i admire about wyclef, he knows how to deliver a good, real, deep song. not many artists can do it like him… plus akon and lil wayne are a nice add….
i support u wyclef
love the song, love the video!!
I didn’t watch the video but I really like this song. Akon’s voice usually annoys me, but this time I kind of enjoyed listening to him.
The First time i Heard this Song i knew it Was gonna Be A Hit
and i was Hooked Love Wycelf Weezy And Akon Just Love it
Tru Shit Yo
know it was fucked up that wyclef was speakin patois in the TI video , but do u know how much he does for Haiti, and he actually rep us very, he was reinacting a secene in the movie ‘’shottas”.

YEAH I FEEL YA IT WAZ FUCKED UP BUT WYCLEF IF YALL DIDNT KNOW HES A HUGE FAN OF REGGAE SHIT I ANIT MAD AT HIM CLEF DO WAT U WONT 2 DO I LUV DA SONG N DA VIEDO IS DA SHIT N YEAH HE DO DO ALOT 4 HAITI N I HAD SAW HIM DERE WHEN I WENT WIT MY HUSBAND. UNLIKE USHER N FIZZ GARACELLE ADMITS SHE HAITIAN N SHE DO EMBRACE HER HERITAGE BUT MY DAUGHTER WANT 2 BE A ACTREE N SHE HALF HAITIAN N WHEN SHE DO BECUM A ACTRESS SHE WILL CELEBRATE HER HERITAGE PROUDLY SO WATCH OUT 4 MY BOO SHIOVAUN AKILIAH BENJAMIN
All my otha Haitian peeps buggin over the patois y’all trippin so what man, do you see people in Germans dissin Gentleman? It’s art man get over it, ou gainyen problem oui rezpekté Clef if it wasnt for him the world wouldn’t have any insight into Haiti and most of y’all would still be ashamed to wave the flag like y’all were back in the day before HE stood there proud (don’t front we know bout the uppity ones the “bourgeois” ones) do what he did then you have the right to speak
i remember first downloading this song, man i fell in love with it. especially since my man weezy is on there. that song is money, and the video is dope too.
Just hmmmmm at the video and the words of the song…….
Wyclef doing the martial arts was cool tho.
Usher Hatian? Since when?
I like the song.
It’s not talking mess if it’s true.
Let’s just be honest, home girl needs some help.
hmm the beat is nice, but the song is just not doing it for me. Maybe I need to hear it a few times more. Why does Akon have to always sing/rap about a prison sentence? Ok you went to jail, we got the memo. When is his 9 seconds of fame up?
Wyclef shouldnt say that because he knew he was sleeping with her while he was married…. god only knows that he may play a factor why Lauryn is a little crazy…
konnnnnnnnnvict !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
akon 4 life , fuck tha haterz!!!!
I was actually feeling the song til Akon came on it. Musta been busy smokin crack instead of riffing off the topic he went off on some second hand gangsta rap lyrics. Even Lil Wayne can’t bring it back after Akon’s wack ass.
A used to write good songs (I still love the first verses to Ghetto). Lauren go to a detox spa and come back.
The song is aight, but yo i woud rather listen to a crazy ass Lauryn Hill than these allegedly sane ass niccas putting out music nowadays. Wyclef aint been relevant since what, fuck it i’ll say since the Fugees, his production ain’t dat great and lets be real Lauryn Hill can’t rock wit dem no more cuz her talent has far surpassed theirs, shit they haven’t grown at all since the Fugees broke up and frankly dem niccas make music purely to make hits and money, Lauryn is on her revolutionary, i wanna change the world type shit with her music right now, how can these lame niccas understand dat.
These links alone should tell you what direction she is going in :

TO MADHAITIAN, I’M NOT EVEN HAITIAN BUT I CAN IMAGINE HOW YOU FEEL. WYCLEF IS FAKE AS HELL. HE CLAIMS TO BE SO PRO-HAITIAN YET YOU NEVER SEE HIM GIVING HAITIANS SOME SHINE. BE IT A RECORD DEAL, A FEATURE IN A VIDEO..NOTHING. WHAT A PHONY THAT WYCLEF!!
I aint gone front I felt good when I heard the carnival album and he was speaking creole. clef did help me let all these yanks know bout my culture. maybe in new york them soft ass niggas STILL scared to say they haitian. but in Miami u will see that flag everywhere.I just felt like he looked stupid with the flag speaking patwa(sorry I spelled it wrong!!).I’m trying to be the new generation of haitian trying to do good for my people. while the rest of yall trying to look good I’m trying to get my suff straight so I help me people.fuck usher and fizz. them niggaz aint never claim the culture and I hope they never do!!! being haitian is not a fad. anyone that’s haitian will proud of that flag and the struggles that came along with it.If u live in miami or new york u know the struggle I’m talking about back in the day. all the fights and the name calling.I’m angry because remember the masses u know wyclefs backgroung know he’s haitian may think we speak jamaican too. if yall remember when Badboys 2 came every haitian ws happy to hear that there was going haitians in the movie we were happy. then when the movie came out they made a mockery of us. niggas with log dirty dreds. fuck up english and in one scene one of those haitians owned a haitian voodoo spot. I’m sorry but tht was fucked up. only a smll population of haitians do voodoo and i aint of them. that made us look like some bullshit.the reason I’m so angry is because of crap like that. I had friends in south carolina really thinking that’s how haitians are.I had to explain to my friend that was not a haitian maybe the character was a trini or something. HAITIANS ARE PROUND PEOPLE. IF U IN THE MEDIA HAITIAN FAM REPRESENT US RIGHT IS LL WHAT I’M SAYING!! LET ME KNOW WHAT YALL THINK OF MY COMMENTS.
lauryn is overrated to me. i’m sorry but her whole unplugged album (though good, i personally thought it was her best album) all sounded the same. critics trashed it b/c ALL the beats were too similar to each other. i think the girl is talented but she’s no genious and it’s unfair to say she was the fugees. wyclef’s album was critically acclaimed as was lauryn’s and she has yet to match that album as does wyclef so in my opinion they’re in the same boat. and i’ve heard lauryn do poetry for def jam and it wasn’t great so where’s the genious? the chick has a gorgeous voice though but wyclef did write and produce most of the fugees songs. pras was the only dispensable member, no offense to him. the fugess would be nothing without lauryn OR wyclef. i do think the woman is crazy and needs help just like britney spears
i forgot to add that ppl r really stupid b/c even though he was talking patois in t.i.’s vid, he was saying haitian things like sak pase. plus he made a whole album in creole which featured well-known compas artists like t-vice, he has done concerts there etc. so calm down. i hate when ppl get like that. it’s like when ppl were dissing oprah for not caring about black ppl when she went all the way to africa to build a school. he’s proud to be haitian.
and also this song is a good song. it has a good message so i’m guessing that the ppl calling it whack are the ones bumping to soulja boy’s dumb ass
‘I had to explain to my friend that was not a haitian maybe the character was a trini or something’…..I was understanding you until you wrote that…..what was that suppose to mean??? u know what forget it….caribbean people just as segregated as in the Americans….
Saw this video on access granted…..made refugee camp look like a fashion show….maybe it would grow on me like all the other stuff he does….
I had the chance to see wyclef perform live and the man is one of the best live performers that i ever seen.
…yall not even listening to song and its lyrics. fuck all the drama yall talkin bout, listen to the damn song
wyclef talkin greasy aint going to help the situation. When you see a fallen soldier you help them and to me he dick ridin on his so called success and bring down the person who made him known. Everybody has their meltdown and would soon get back up again. Ima need 4 wyclef to look up the word loyalty and friendship. He have some nerves.
horrible
