Both Lauryn Hill and Wyclef Jean, rightfully, joined the world in publicly mourning artist/activist Harry Belafonte after his death on Tuesday, but one day later their IG accounts were bare of any reference to Pras’ trial and verdict.
The Fugees’ last album, 1996’s “The Score,” sold more than 22 million copies worldwide … but the group never got on the same page to record a follow-up. A 25th-anniversary tour to celebrate the project was scrapped last year due to Pras’ legal drama, so it’s possible there’s a rift between them after all that drama.

As we reported, Pras was found guilty of spearheading a multimillion-dollar political conspiracy alongside Malaysian fugitive Jho Low.

The trial included high-profile testimonies from the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio and former U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions — but to date, there’s been no reaction from Lauryn or Wyclef.
On the other hand, Chuck D is being extremely vocal … the Public Enemy frontman launched into a tirade Thursday, ripping apart what he calls a hypocrisy on Pras’ accused crimes.

Ironically, Chuck also found time to memorialize Belafonte — sharing the late icon’s many virtues with TMZ Hip Hop when we spotted him at the airport.
We reached out to all 3 Fugees for comment. Will let you know when we hear back!!!
