The Landmark Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong is delighted to present Wyclef Jean, the tal-ented musician, rapper and producer, to Unplugged at MO Bar on 21 April 2008.
Wyclef will be performing many of his famous songs including those from his most recent album "The Carnival II: Memoirs of an Immigrant".
Wyclef was born in Haiti and first entered the spotlight in 1993 with New Jersey hip hop group The Fugees. The Fugees’ album The Score reached the #1 slots on Billboard's Top 200 and Top R&B/Hip-Hop albums charts, in addition to earning two Grammys. The Score also went on to become the world's #1 top-selling hip-hop album of all-time, selling more than 17 million copies globally.
Wyclef has since fashioned a successful solo career with five solo albums. An enigmatic performer, he plays several instruments on stage while rapping in English, Creole, Spanish and even Japanese.
