Former Haitian presidential hopeful Wyclef Jean has come out this week with a very un-statesman like attack on actor Sean Penn and Fugee’s star Pras, who expressed reservations over Wyclef’s presidential plans.
While performing at Hot 97′s On Da Reggae Tip concert in New York,Wyclef sang, “If I was president….I got a message for Sean Penn, maybe he ain’t see me in Haiti because he was too busy sniffing cocaine. I got a message for Praswell, even though you don’t want to support me, I got love for you, even though you only kicked eight bars for the Fugees.” [VIDEO BELOW]
This was a clear retaliation shot at Penn, who spoke of Jean’s campaign in a recent CNN interview.
“This is somebody who’s going to receive an enormous amount of support from the United States, and I have to say I’m very suspicious of it, simply because he, as an ambassador at large, has been virtually silent. For those of us in Haiti, he has been a non-presence,”
Pras was not available for comment at this time.
