Pras has said he’s “done” with his former group, Fugees.The rapper is currently facing 20 years in prison after he was found guilty of being involved in a billion-dollar Malaysian money laundering scheme.

He was convicted on 10 counts including campaign finance violations, illegal lobbying, witness tampering, and lying to banks.Now, as he awaits sentencing, Pras has reflected on his current legal troubles and friends who have abandoned him.

Though he didn’t name Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean explicitly, he seemed to hint that his former bandmates have deserted him too.“I’m done with that,” he told Variety. “They’re going to Europe [to tour].

I can’t go, so,” he added, referencing the bail conditions that currently prevent him from leaving the country. “It’s what it is.“You can’t give people that kind of energy,” Pras continued. “So you could be frustrated, you could be disappointed, but I really believe in my path and in my journey, and I believe what’s mine, no one’s going to be able to take it away from me.
