Masquerade is notable for its eclectic guest list and unconventional samples, a hallmark of Wyclef’s production style. Classic Album Review: Wyclef Jean | Masquerade - Tinnitist
Wyclef Jean has always been a musical polyglot, and Masquerade is no exception. Produced almost entirely by Wyclef and his longtime collaborator Jerry "Wonder" Duplessis , the album serves a rich "Wycleftic" stew of hip-hop, reggae, contemporary R&B, and rock.
The lead single, "," featuring Claudette Ortiz of City High, became one of the album's most enduring hits. It showcased Wyclef’s ability to craft radio-friendly R&B that didn't sacrifice his signature soulful grit. Tracklist Highlights and Collaborations
