Purpose: An Immigrant's Story by Wyclef Jean, Anthony Bozza

3.0

This album is a 3 but I think just barely. There are some good things in this book like Wyclef describing his childhood and influences. But the chapter where he starts about the Score drags as he can't seem to really articulate about his relationship with Lauryn Hill. In one sense it does illuminate the difficulty and confusion they shared but it doesn't help with the process of understanding a lot of what went on. He also neglects to give us many stories about working with people outside of The Fugees. I do like how he talks about Haiti and his decisions regarding his home country as well. In all of that it still feels like something is lacking in this book at some point.
