I didn't cop the album because I didn't like that 99 Luft Ballons song you mentioned, but he stated in the interview that he opted to go completely solo on the album and didn't use input from any of The Fugees. Brave on his part seeing how popular they were at the time, or at least I think Wyclef's single material was huge around the time Poly-Sci dropped if my memory is accurate. I was a bit surprised it was a complete dud because that single got a lot of airplay, at least I remember seeing the video a ton of times when cable music channels actually showed music videos.
