Zip Top ^new^ — The Fugees Blunted On Reality

If you are a serious investor, a historian, or a completionist: The Zip Top is the equivalent of a first-edition comic book. As physical media continues to appreciate, and as the iconography of Lauryn Hill and Wyclef reaches mythic status, this awkward little cardboard box is only going to rise in value.

The story of Blunted on Reality is one of redemption. After the album bombed, The Fugees were on the brink of breaking up. But they retreated, honed their craft, and in 1996 released The Score . The album became an indomitable force in pop music, a landmark of hip-hop that sold over 22 million copies worldwide. Suddenly, fans who had ignored Blunted on Reality went back to discover the group’s roots. The debut album has since gone on to sell over four million copies globally. the fugees blunted on reality zip top
