DeDe featuring Pras Michel - Turn You On
I was searching through youtube for one of the singles that the Fugees put out a couple of years ago, back when they were working on a reunion album - the album that fell apart after Lauryn Hill decided she would only respond to "Ms. Hill" and refused to record in the same room as Wyclef - when I came across the above song from Pras. A duet with Swedish singer DeDe, it apparently did fairly well over in Europe last fall but I don't remember ever hearing about it in the U.S. I'm not saying it's a great song, and it would have been hard to imagine any member of the Fugees appearing on something like this back in the Score days, but it's probably the only new song we'll hear from Pras anytime soon. Interesting to hear Praswell continue to rep the Refugees camp on the song, even though dude couldn't even get a guest spot on Wyclef's followup to Carnival.
In the comments section of the video, DeDe says that she turned down an offer to perform on MTV's Music Awards with Pras as the replacement for Mya on Ghetto Superstar. Pras ended up getting Destiny's Child to sing in her place, and that seems to have worked out slightly better for them than it did for DeDe.
