TLC’s ‘No Scrubs’ Becomes Their First Song To Reach 1 Billion Streams on Spotify

Leon@TLCArmy's avatarLeon@TLCArmy Leave a comment

Congratulations are in order for TLC! The legendary girl group has finally reached the milestone of having over one billion streams of one of their hit singles on the streaming platform Spotify!

The 1999 hit single, “No Scrubs“, lifted from the album, ‘Fanmail‘, reached over a billion streams on Spotify, marking the first time a TLC track has hit this celebratory milstone. The song also celebrated its 25th anniversary earlier this year.

“No Scrubs” receives an average stream count of over 830k daily, accurate at the time of writing (March 31, 2024).

It is a rare achievement for a 90s song – the 26th song from that decade to pass the milestone and the 2nd song by a 90s female artist after the Spice Girls‘ debut 1996 hit, “Wannabe”.

The EP for the single was released in full last month to celebrate its 25th anniversary. The EP featured the radio edit, instrumental, a capella and an acoustic stripped edit with Left Eye‘s rap included.

Spotify remains as one of most lucrative sources of income to be generated by musicians through streaming on its platform. Spotify also commonly awards artists with a congratulatory plaque when a record is streamed past the billion milestone.

We’re sure the epic “Waterfalls won’t be too far behind to reach the billion milestone!

TLC Celebrate ‘FanMail’ 25th Anniversary with Digital Release of EP Singles and Unseen Music Video Footage

Leon@TLCArmy's avatarLeon@TLCArmy Leave a comment

TLC celebrated the 25th anniversary of their iconic ‘Fanmail‘ album, released on February 23, 1999!

To celebrate this milestone, the ladies surprised fans with some exclusive never-before-seen footage of behind the scenes clips from the music videos for the first two lead singles from the album, “No Scrubs” and “Unpretty“!

In new interviews for the anniversary with Sony’s legacy catalog, Legacy Recordings, T-Boz and Chilli took a trip down memory lane to discuss their feelings about the ‘Fanmail’ project.

“I was like, I’m gonna record this. This is the one!”, Chilli recalls on the first time she heard the “No Scrubs” demo with producer Shek’spere. “I knew it was a smash”.

Whilst discussing the follow up single, “Unpretty”, T-Boz explains, “It came from a personal situation of mine. Men were being verbally abusive to women, telling them to look down, telling them to look up — it couldn’t have been me! So, I thought of this word, and thought, oh, they’re making them feel un-pretty.”

“We have so many people who tell us that it helps them feel better about themselves — one of them was Lady Gaga. So, you never know who is listening and who the song touches”, T-Boz says. “I feel good!”

Fans were holding out for an anniversary edition of the album. This didn’t happen, unfortunately, but Vinyl Me, Please announced a 3rd Edition pressing of the ‘Fanmail’ album, on sale now.

You can purchase the stunning vinyl here. It comes with a limited bonus vinyl, featuring the Left Eye rap mix of “No Scrubs”, and the bonus track, “U In Me“.

Sony also finally released the complete set of EP’s from the ‘Fanmail’ era to digital platforms. This includes, “No Scrubs”, “Unpretty”, “Dear Lie” and “Silly Ho“.

Check out the EP singles in full on Spotify!
