Fugees rapper jailed over illegal political donations
The Guardian
|November 22, 2025
The Grammy-winning rapper Prakazrel “Pras” Michel of the Fugees has been sentenced to 14 years in prison for involvement in a billion-dollar scam that funnelled money into US politics.
-
The 52-year-old founding member of the Fugees was convicted of money laundering and campaign finance violations in 2023 in a global foreign influence scandal led by the Malaysian financier Low Taek Jho.
In April 2023, a federal jury convicted Michel of 10 counts, including conspiracy and acting as an unregistered agent of a foreign government.
The trial in Washington DC included testimony from the actor Leonardo DiCaprio and the former attorney general Jeff Sessions.
