Legendary R&B/hip-hop artist Wycleaf Jean hopped on the Reddit AMA train this week to chat about the classic Fugees album The Score, which turned 20 years old last week.
Although it started off well, the artist was soon fielded questions his controversies rather than his music, most notably the misuse (aka theft) of $9 million in funds which were supposed to go to a charity he'd set up to help those in Haiti.
At more than 4770 points, the most up-voted question of the session was,
"Hi Wyclef,
I have a question for you, how do you sleep at night knowing that the money people were donating to your charity Yele could have been spent improving the lives of "your people" but instead you spent it on yourself and your celebrity friends? How do you justify $600,000 in donations went to Yele's headquarters, which have since been abandoned, $375,000 to cover 'landscaping' costs, $470,000 spent on food and beverages, you paid yourself $100,000 to perform at a "Charity" event for your presidency bid, $100,000 to your mistress, $30,763 to fly Hollywood Lindsay Lohan from New Jersey to a Chicago. You have stolen a total of $9 million dollars of the $16 million donated to Haiti. Do you feel like the biggest douche bag on earth or do you like stealing from the mouths of the poor and needy?"
Shortly after the AMA derailed, Jean quickly deactivated his Reddit account, meaning his answers were removed. A couple screenshots have been found:


And these were some of the lighter answers, by all accounts.
Needless to say, when you've stolen $9 million from charity, it's probably best to stay the hell away from Reddit.
