Wyclef Goes Back To School

Boston Herald
BOSTON — Hip-hop artist Wyclef Jean has announced that he is going back to school to earn a degree from Berklee College of Music.

The former frontman for The Fugees before going solo said Friday the school has a flexible program tailored for him that includes on-campus classes and online courses at berkleemusic.com.

Jean is scheduled to attend his first class on Monday. His curriculum this fall includes courses in ear training, theory, improvisation, and guitar.

The Haitian-born artist said he left college after only one semester to pursue his career and going back to school has always been a goal.

The 36-year-old is scheduled to release a remix CD coming out on Nov. 10 called “DJ Drama Presents Wyclef Jean AKA Toussaint St. Jean.”

  1. Wyclef has accomplished more than 99% of Berklee grads ever will. I guess the economy’s so bad even a star wants to go back to college.
