The Fugees have a complex but impactful history,” Hill said in a statement. “I wasn’t even aware the 25th anniversary had arrived until someone brought it to my attention. I decided to honor this significant project, its anniversary, and the fans who appreciated the music by creating a peaceful platform where we could unite, perform the music we loved, and set an example of reconciliation for the world.”
Jean added, “As I celebrate 25 years with the Fugees, my first memory was that we vowed, from the gate, we would not just do music we would be a movement. We would be a voice for the unheard, and in these challenging times, I am grateful once again, that God has brought us together.”
Released on February, 13 1996, The Score peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and featured the hits “Killing Me Softly”, “Ready Or Not”, “Fu-Gee-La”, and “No Woman, No Cry”. The multi-platinum album earned the group two Grammy awards and became one of the best-selling and critically-acclaimed rap albums of all time.
