TLC

Released

28 years later, there is no trio record like this and in 1994, it all came together in the most crassly commercial way. The TLC women were going into their second album as a fairly successful R&B act, but not superstars. Their move? All the spaghetti at all of the walls—and it worked, beautifully. The producers and songwriters include but are not limited to Babyface, Puffy, Jermaine Dupri, Chucky Thompson, Dallas Austin, Prince, and Organized Noize. The guest vocalists include but are not limited to Phife Dawg, Cee-Lo, Andre 3000, and Busta Rhymes. The styles of music TLC touch on here include but are not limited to G-funk, new jack swing, slow jams, hip-hop, straight R&B, Prince, weird R&B, smoothness, roughness, toughness. The topics include but are not limited to safe sex, sex sex, stalking, your man, my man, my girl, your girl, tonight, last night, and tomorrow night. No skips!
