Tionne, Lisa and Rozanda aka T-Boz, Left eye and Chilli collectively known as TLC, the Best selling girl group in the US, and the second Best selling girl group worldwide is getting the Biography treatment as A&E is rebooting the channel and going back to its roots and going back to being about Arts and Entertainment. 

Citing lifetime and Bravo have the tabloid trash. We need some class up here. 

 

TLC was the biggest girl group in the 90s in the US. 

 

Their first album had them as kids, colorful clothes and also a very important message with Cundoms everywhere especially on Lisa's eye. Promoting the message that kids have *** and safe *** is important in our communities....that first album is where Lisa shines, two solo Tracks by Lisa.

Plus several tracks on dating in the 90s and total girl power.

 

Their second Album saw the girls became women, Crazysexycool also made history as they are still the only girl group to have a diamond Album, and it's also one of the first times that people learned about shady contracts and how the artists can sell records and end up broke..

 

All the designer clothes, video shoots and promotion costs spent up front by the labels, all get paid first. 

 

Lisa said TLC Only got 1.53 million as a group, divide that by 3 is 62,000 then add 48% bracket in taxes, each took home 1,000 when all it's done. Like Lisa said, I'm supposed to buy a house with that. 

 

So, they filed for chapter 11 Bankruptcy. People shaded them, but it has come out that filing these things is important as it protects what never assets you have in your possession, over Time they renewed their contracts and got a better precentage rate, than the previous 7% royalty rate they made. 

 

In, 1999 they came back with FanMail and the futuristic themes. If you Google the photoshoots, TLC actually had blue paint on them to give the colors of the artwork. 

 

It wasn't post production, but then again Lisa is all in and make it look authentic visionary, or it's not happening. 

 

FanMail was a #1 album, and it actually traded positions several times with Britney Spears and her debut album. This was the norm until Millennium by Backstreet boys came out. 

 

By, 2002 TLC was planning to do a final Album, but everything got derailed when Lisa, tragically died during production, so T Boz and Chilli planned to do finish it in 2003. After healing, But L.A. Reid forced the girls to finish it when they weren't ready, and he admitted he was very wrong to ask them when they weren't ready. 

 

They released a fifth album by Kickstarter and independently, and while it contained the classic sound. It didn't sell as expected. 

 

Can't wait for this to air.
