TLC

One of the biggest-selling female groups of all time, TLC appeal equally to R&B and pop audiences by blending catchy hooks and bouncy funk with a playful and confident attitude. Rapper Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes and singers Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas rode a blend of post-new jack swing R&B and pop to stardom during the '90s. Their sound was reflected in their image, equal parts style and spirit, bolstered by a flamboyant, outrageous wardrobe. Ooooooohhh...On the TLC Tip (1992) proved that they also had substance with "Ain't 2 Proud 2 Beg," "Baby-Baby-Baby," and "What About Your Friends" all Top Ten hits. TLC went supernova with CrazySexyCool (1994), a Grammy-winning, diamond-platinum return with four Top Ten singles including the chart-toppers "Creep" and "Waterfalls." After that, the group fell into disarray and took over four years to record their follow-up, FanMail (1999), though "No Scrubs" and "Unpretty" returned them to the top of the Hot 100. Their fourth platinum album, 3D (2002), arrived months after Lopes was killed in a car accident. Watkins and Thomas have since released the album TLC (2017) and have performed into the 2020s.
