Fugees reunion tour has been delayed to 2022 following issues surrounding Pras’ passport.
The group reunited earlier this year with plans to mark the 25th anniversary of their classic album ‘The Score’, but the trek has been put on ice.
After launching the comeback with a show on The Rooftop at Pier 17 in New York, they confirmed gigs in the US, UK and Africa were delayed to ensure “the best chance that all cities on the tour will be fully open”.

“Dates for our upcoming Fugees 25th Anniversary Tour are moving to early 2022 to ensure the best chance that all cities on the tour will be fully open so we can perform for as many fans as possible,” Fugees said in a statement.
“With so much excitement around the reunion tour, we are also happy to announce that we will be adding more cities and dates! Full details coming soon along with some SPECIAL announcements!”
The rescheduled dates have not been revealed.
It was recently reported that international tour dates could be in jeopardy as Pras fights to get his passport back from the Department of Justice.
The musician is under criminal indictment from the Justice Department as part of a probe into an alleged political influence campaign involving a Chinese investment company.
His lawyer, David Kenner, said: “It’s certainly something they were aware of and I don’t think they ever seriously thought that it would be an impediment.”
