Ayinde, 55, who lives in New Jersey, was sentenced to 50 years in prison on Friday after he was found guilty of repeatedly raping his six daughters and fathering six children with them.
The music director, credited with the Fugees 1996 smash hit "Killing Me Softly" was first sentenced to 40 years in prison in 2011 after he was found guilty of having sex with one of his daughters when he was as young as eight years old.
The second conviction adds to his sentence for a total of 90 years in jail.
Ayinde's former wife in 2011 had testified that the child rapist was "trying to create a pure family bloodline" by impregnating his own daughters.
During his first trial, Ayinde had claimed that "the world was going to end, and it was just going to be him and his offspring and that he was chosen."
In this latest trial, the court heard how Ayinde began raping his second daughter at age eight and impregnating her four times. The assaults happened for some 30 years and in numerous homes across northern New Jersey until Ayinde and his wife separated.
In a report, NBC New York revealed the abuse happened even while the family was being surveilled by child welfare services.
Some rape episodes even happened in an abandoned funeral home. In 2000, Ayinde moved his family to Florida after case workers removed several children from his home.
He was arrested for kidnapping when he attempted to take his children back, and was sentenced to one year probation when he pleaded guilty to the lesser charges.
Ayinde's wife who testified during the first trial said the abusive father beat and starved his daughters and home-schooled his tortured children so as to keep the family's secret within the family.
