Jean moved to Brooklyn, New York when he was nine, then to Northern New Jersey, where he began playing the guitar and studying jazz in his high school. In 1987, Jean, his friend (so close they told people they were cousins growing up) Prakazrel Michel (Pras) and his classmate, Lauryn Hill, formed a group called the Tranzlator Crew before becoming The Fugees. Wyclef worked as a cabdriver.
Recently he has been finding success as a collaborator - with his turn on Shakira's 2006 track 'Hips Don't Lie' hitting number one in many countries around the world.
In August of 2010, Jean announced his intent to seek the presidency of Haiti. This move came after his increasingly-high profile humanitarian work in the wake of the earthquake that devastated that nation.

Ladies and gentleman,
The world music ambassador Wyclef Jean's in the house
Alongside of sexy Lucia
Jan, let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
I'm told, I was partying with the Russians in a yacht
Ass bigger than a hat and saw a girl
Asked her where's she's from
That's when she replied, "You're a bi!"
I'm drunk, got it going dippy-dong-dong
And the way she move her body, now I'm dippy-dong-dong
She hide like the sun, got me dippy-dong-dong
Murder She Wrote, what a bomb-bomb!
(Women sing) If you look into my eyes you can see my cheri amour
(Wyclef) I want it
(Women sing) Does it feel like a dischevel? when I tell you that I want you
(Wyclef) Yes it do
(Women sing) Would you be my lover now, and tempt me off from danger
(Wyclef) I'd love to
So let's dance on a dial, the party no style
When you party on a yacht, you don't worry about cops
They can shut us down
They can shut us down
They can shut us
They can shut us
They can shut us down
I'm told, I was partying with the Russians in a yacht
Ass bigger than a hat and saw a girl
Asked her where's she's from
That's when she replied, "You're a bi?"
I'm drunk, got it going dippy-dong-dong
The way she move her body, now I'm dippy-dong-dong
She hide like the sun, got me dippy-dong-dong
Murder She Wrote, what a bomb-bomb!
(Women sing) If you look me in the morning and you hit me lights, I make love
(Wyclef) I'd love to
(Women sing) I can feel that you were sent to me from up above, my love
(Wyclef) I want you
Cus when I look into your eyes, you're so god-divine.
Tiki-tiki-taka, you got me, hear my thighs
So let's dance on a dial, the party don't style
When you party on a yacht, you don't worry about cops
I'm told, I was partying with the Russians in a yacht
Ass bigger than a hat and saw a girl
Asked her where's she's from
That's when she replied, "You're a bi!"
I'm drunk, got it going dippy-dong-dong
The way she move her body, now I'm dippy-dong-dong
She hide like the sun, got me dippy-dong-dong
(Emergency)
Murder She Wrote, what a bomb-bomb!
Oh, it's my nukin' music baby
Oh, don't step on my shoes baby
