Pras Hit with $64 Million Bill! Fugees Rapper Ordered to Pay the Feds After Foreign Conspiracy Conviction 😳💰
Fugees rapper Pras Michel just took another major hit in his ongoing legal battle — a judge has officially ordered him to pay the U.S. government $64 million following his conviction on federal conspiracy and foreign lobbying charges.
According to court documents, the judge ruled that Pras “obtained proceeds in the amount of at least $64,923,226” from his crimes, which include failing to register as an agent of China, conspiracy, and witness tampering.
This comes after Pras was found guilty last year for his role in an alleged foreign influence scheme involving Malaysian billionaire Jho Low and political donations tied to former President Barack Obama’s 2012 campaign.
Pras’ spokeswoman, Erica Dumas, blasted the ruling, saying, “They already took 100 [million] from him and now they want another 64 [million].”
While the financial blow is huge, it’s not the end of the road for Pras — he’s also facing sentencing this December, where he could see up to 10 years in prison. His legal team, however, has asked the court for leniency, recommending a 3-year sentence instead.
Fans have been divided on social media — some calling the penalty excessive, others saying it’s the price of playing in high-stakes politics.
From Grammy-winning hits with The Fugees to multimillion-dollar federal cases, Pras’ story continues to be one of the wildest chapters in hip-hop history. 🎤⚖️
