While I liked Welcome to Haiti: Creole 101, The Preacher's Son and Masquerade just didn't do it for me. Looking at the Amazon reviews of Carnival II, it looks like I might be in the minority (as his other albums scored much higher). Anyways, if you liked the Carnival and the Ecleftic, maybe you'll be like me, and play Carnival II on repeat for awhile. Too bad that Lauryn's off in another world and we'll never get any more of the Fugees.
