Set out as Rap Translators and later going by the name of Tranzlator Crew, the band with home base West Orange, New Jersey eventually became the Fugees.
According to former frontman Wyclef Jean (he is an American of Haitian ancestry) Fugees is a shortened form of refugees:'Everyone in the United States is a refugee to some degree. No one's culture originated here.'
