How To Book WYCLEF JEAN For Your Event!

Wyclef Jean may be available for your next special event!

In the pop 'n' fresh world of music, it's not that difficult to make a splash and become a phenomenon. What's really hard is becoming an artist and sustaining and developing a legitimate and substantial career.

Those wanting an answer to that question might look to Wyclef Jean, because in this superstar you have the blueprint for both commercial success and creative potency. From his groundbreaking work with The Fugees to his genre-defying solo debut "The Carnival - featuring Fugees Allstars" to his acclaimed and Grammy-winning production and songwriting credits for, among others, Destiny's Child, Whitney Houston (the top ten smash "My Love Is Your Love") and Carlos Santana (the number one hit "Maria, Maria"), Wyclef Jean broadened and expanded the reach of hip-hop culture.

Wyclef has been putting his own spin on things since he first began making music. The son of a preacher, Wyclef was born in Haiti and, over the years, has emerged as a leading champion of that country, serving as a spokesman for many issues and heading up the Wyclef Jean Foundation to help children both in Haiti and the United States. Wyclef moved to Brooklyn's Marlborough Houses when he was nine years old. "I'm all about the projects. I was raised with this training from the church and the streets and the parks and it's what developed me as a person and as an artist."

Wyclef received his first guitar from his mother. By high school, he had moved to New Jersey and where he majored in jazz. By the early 1990's he had formed a hip-hop group, The Fugees, with Lauryn Hill and Prakazrel "Pras" Michel. The trio toured non-stop and their 1994 debut, "Blunted On Reality," earned them good press but not much commercial attention. Undeterred, Wyclef and his cousin and musical partner Jerry "Wonder" Duplesis seized production control of The Fugees next effort, which, in 1996, would emerge as "The Score," one of the largest-selling and most influential hip-hop records in chart history.

"The Score"'s staggering sales (more than 11 million units worldwide) and critical acclaim helped secure Wyclef's status as one of hip-hop and R&B's hottest producers. He went on to produce a diverse roster of acts including Cypress Hill, Sublime, Bounty Killer and Simply Red.

In 1997 Clef released his solo CD "The Carnival - featuring Fugees Allstars," which spawned the hits "Staying Alive" and the moving "Gone Till November," which earned Clef a Grammy nomination for Best R&B Vocal Performance, Male. Praised for its freewheeling, multi-cultural sound, "The Carnival" has been certified double platinum by the RIAA. Following the album's release, Wyclef toured, produced a slew of hip-hop and R&B recordings (including fellow Fugee Pras's hit "Ghetto Superstar"), participated in a televised tribute to Johnny Cash, and hosted two all-day fundraisers benefiting the Wyclef Jean Foundation.

A musician with an activist's heart, a guitar-slinging microphone bandit, a seasoned veteran with an ear to the streets, Wyclef Jean has come along way and brought hip-hop along on his journey.

(i.e., what is WYCLEF JEAN booking fee to perform at an event?)

Factors influencing pricing vary and may include date, location, type of event, whether a private party or a public concert, the artist's calendar, whether the artist is on tour or not, how well tickets are selling at the artist's concerts, the current demand for the artist's music, market activity, etc.

As you might expect, the more in-demand the artist is, the more buyers are prepared to pay. Of course, this causes the artist's price to increase as the artist becomes more popular or decrease when becoming less popular.

Exclusive agents with exclusive representation frequently quote a range instead of a specific price, since changes can occur at anytime. Generally, the artist's manager has a role in the decision to accept any particular offer from a talent buyer.
