    Pras has shared his thoughts about the demise of Lauryn Hill's tour.

    TMZ reportedly caught up with the Fugees rapper on Friday, August 9, shortly after Hill canceled the U.S. leg of her "Miseducation of Lauryn Hill 25th Anniversary Tour." The Grammy award-winning singer issued a statement after fans were refunded for shows in North America. She blamed low ticket sales on the "narrative" media outlets ran with about her tardiness at shows and the stability of her tours. However, Pras put the blame solely on Hill.

    “I saved her reputation for 20 years by not telling my side of the story but oops … cat’s out the bag," he said.

    After he issued his statement, Pras also reportedly recorded a new song in which he vents about how he feels about the cancelation. According to TMZ , he made a song called "Bar Mitzfa" and allegedly disses Hill.

    "Don't blame me, blame her, she made the mess ... not another f**king penny, is what I told 'Clef."

    The new tour dates were announced earlier this year. It was supposed to feature sets from Hill, Wyclef Jean, Pras, and her son YG Marley . After she hyped up the tour at events like the BET Awards , Hill canceled the tour just three days before it was scheduled to begin over the weekend in Florida. Although the U.S. wont be included in the tour, the singer confirmed the European dates will still go on as planned.

    "The shows in the UK and Europe ARE MOVING FORWARD as planned," Hill wrote. "The audiences in the UK and Europe not only haven’t seen the Miseducation Anniversary performance yet, they also haven’t seen the Fugees perform together in over 25 years! Performing for my fans, is a profound exchange of energy and emotion that excites me every time. Every show is a piece of my expression and testament to our connection and shared love for music. I can assure you that no one is more disappointed about not being able to perform than I am."

    The tour will begin in Dublin on October 7. Hill, Fugees and YG Marley will hit other major cities like London, Manchester, Stockholm, and Paris before it concludes in Hamburg on November 1.
