"Blunted On Reality" je debutové album Wyclefa Jeana, Lauryn Hill a Pras Michela, známých jako The Fugees, z roku 1994. Album obsahuje méně politických textů než jejich druhé album The Score, ale politické záměry na něm rozhodně byly.

Jak Wyclef Jean popsal význam názvu v jednom rozhovoru: "Když si policie s někým zahrává kvůli něčemu, co ten člověk neudělal, a snaží se to na něj hodit, otupí to realitu. Když vláda bere peníze za zbraně... a ty peníze by se mohly vrátit do komunity, otupuje mě to k realitě. Je to jen vědomí toho, co se děje... to je to, co otupuje k realitě znamená..... '

Z alba vzešly tři singly: 'Nappy Heads', 'Vocab' a 'Boof Baf' a začalo se prodávat ve velkém, až nakonec dosáhlo zlatého a platinového statusu po vydání kritiky oceňovaného alba The Score v roce 1996.

Álbum puede clasificarse como género Hip Hop.
