TLC Army

Chilli of TLC sat down for a Side by Side Amazon Music special, discussing her favorite artists, inspirations behind some of TLC’s greatest hits and the highlights of her career so far!

Chilli touches on many interesting and hilarious topics, including:

• “Creep” being inspired by a situation T-Boz was going through
• Why she adores the showmanship of Bruno Mars
• Being scared of the big swing during the “No Scrubs” video
• “Diggin’ On You” video using CGI to give the impression of a bigger concert
• How she feels “It’s Sunny” is the albums “Happy” (Pharrell)
• How she flipped the original “Scandalous” roles to empower females
• Why being part of the Titty-Less Crew is a bonus when performing
• Missing the albums first songwriting camp due to laryngitis
• Freaking out over a fan who crawled towards her during “Red Light Special”
• Why she loves Michael Jackson – and more!

Following the epic release of TLC’s self titled 5th and final album last month, the world is still craving more TLC!

Sony Music stepped in to feed those needs today, as they released a healthy dose of TLC classic remixes previously unavailable digitally!

Amongst the tracks are some very rare remixes including a radio edit of “All I Want For Christmas“, the single mix of “Hat 2 Da Back“, “Ain’t 2 Proud 2 Beg” with alternative lyrics and more!

You can hear the new releases on Spotify or you can purchase on iTunes!

TLC’s second single in the UK to be lifted from their new self titled album is the summery uplifting track “It’s Sunny”, which has been added to the B-List on BBC Radio 2!

The track will be put into heavy rotation on the station from July 22.

In the recent interview with LA Times, TLC opened up about their hopes for the latest album, as well as wanting to put out a remix album at some point!

TLC’s last album, 2002’s “3D,” was completed using vocals from Lopes’ limited-released solo effort, “Supernova.”

The duo last made a comeback in 2013.

Then, a guest appearance on J. Cole’s “Crooked Smile” netted TLC its first major hit in more than a dozen years, and the group produced a VH1 biopic, “CrazySexyCool: The TLC Story,” that became the highest-rated film in the network’s history.

“We have been really blessed,” Thomas said. “Its been 20-plus years, and we’ve never broken up. We’re never breaking up.”

It was the excitement over the VH1 film that led Reid to sign the group to a single deal with Epic Records. The deal spawned “Meant to Be,” its first single since 2003, but quickly soured and left TLC on its own again.

It might be TLC’s last new album, but the group hopes to do a remix album, is considering anniversary reissues and would like to play festivals. Additionally, the two are aggressively pursuing a residency in Las Vegas.

“We’re blessed to have a body of music, so why would you not live off that and take it a step further?” Watkins said. “We’ve put in all this work for 25 years — it’s time to work smarter, not harder.”

TLC have been announced as the headline act at the 90s Fest concert in Columbus, OH on August 12, 2017!

Other acts include Blackstreet, C+C Music Factory, DJ Suga Ray and more!
