Faked own deaths to run off to aruba and conduct secret lesbian affair without prying eyes of the public who could never understand a love like theirs.

I'm bummed... she was a badass! I think TLC had a style and substance that Destiny's Child can never match... bye bye left eye.

Andy, Friday, 26 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

TLC are (um, were) one of the few, maybe the only, recent R&B groups with strong enough personalities & songwriting skills to be more than mere vehicles of expression for their producers. A few days ago a friend and I were talking about how you can determine what type of person you're talking to by asking them "who did that song 'Creep' in the early nineties?" I'd much rather be around a person who said "TLC" than a person who said "Radiohead" or "Stone Temple Pilots". Top 40 Radio's taking some hits - Ashanti and Destiny's Child are no Aaliyah and TLC.

And the thing is, I've been totally grooving on the Conway bootleg that collapses "The Block Party" with the Hives!

Michael Daddino, Friday, 26 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Get STUNG, Mike!

Ned Raggett, Friday, 26 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Oooh! Have I started a new ILx running gag? Or, since it's only been you and Nicole who's repeated it, is it some weird librarian thing? DO YOU SEE?

Michael Daddino, Friday, 26 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

You are now part of my genius plan, you are. Nicole and I are merely your puppetmasters.

Ned Raggett, Friday, 26 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Latin MTV played the unpretty video, i as a fool watched. I will not sleep tonight. Damn it

Chupa-Cabras, Friday, 26 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

She was my favorite TLC member. I was listening to Method Man's Tical 2000 today and I forgot about her cameo on it. Scary.... Maybe she'll see 2pac, since I understand she admired him a lot.

"This is like when Bolan died. No, wait, TLC still has fans, sells records. So this is nothing like when Bolan died"

Hey J Blount, YOU ARE A MAJOR ASSHOLE! I HOPE YOU FUCKING DIE!!!!

Jzmes H., Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

James calm down! You must be pretty upset to spell your name wrong. Don't let the ASSHOLE'S get to you! I do agree with you; J Blount is a major ASSHOLE.So are many of the others on this thread. No wonder the world is so very FUCKED UP!

Pidge, Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

. Presumably there are demos of these somewhere, or even finished mixed versions that just didn't get released. Although I have not heard them I feel justified in asserting that these are probably the greatest recordings in the history of the world. Somebody get to work on this. I have to have them.

bet yr ass you'll be hearing them all over everythang for the next ten years.

di, Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

So did anyone get an abusive e-mail from a Veronica Inge or was it just me? Because I was thinking, "Jeez, if my one comment set her off, Dave Q is already being hunted down by her trained assassins."

Admittedly, I should note that for any future Googlers out on the warpath that my flip comment aside, I was long a fan of TLC and it was clearly a horrible way for Lopes to die. But anyone who thinks sick humor doesn't in fact exist lives in fantasyland.

Ned Raggett, Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I got one. Shall we compare?

You dumb fuck, what you said about the late Lisa Lopes was foul. Saying what said only proves that you are a untalented fuck face, that does not deserve to live. It should have been you in that crash in stead of Left eye. You busted ass basterd, I'm glad I dont know you because I would stump the shit out of yo' face, if i did. oh....... and i don't mind you emailing me back, because i have alot more to say... When left eye wrote " no scrubs," it was clear she was talking about you...prick. You must be white.

paul, Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

The same, but I got an extra line about my conspiracy theory crack. Really, I can't blame a dedicated fan for getting mad over this thread. In fact I'm surprised there haven't been more complaints.

Ned Raggett, Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

oh this is just pathetic.

jess, Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

what's really frightening is that "veronica" must have been pre- lurking, considering that there's no way this could have hit google already.

jess, Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I got it too. How does the bustedness of one's ass actually manifest itself?

dan, Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Chalk me down as a member of the Veronica Inge society.

She's been writing exactly the same mail, but sending it seperately in an attempt to keep the personal touch. I wyke it. And I'm not white. That hurt...

Judd Nelson, Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

untalented fuck face
Thats pretty sweet, I hadn't used that one in while. I wonder if she works for TLC's street team? Keeping us from slagging a clearly talented and undersold artist.

Mr Noodles, Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

I got one too. Hey Veronica, I wasn't hating on Lisa's muffins! Hello... I said "The Block Party" was tops. And it IS tops! Turned on the TV today and it played. I danced around my bedroom to it.

EdwardO, Saturday, 27 April 2002 00:00 (twenty-four years ago)

Why Tupac have to die?, Why Notorious B.I.G have to die?, Why Aaliyah have to die?, Why Lisa Lopes have to die?, Why my b/f have to die?. No one knows why god took them, but god himself.

Did the backing singers that went "Dey were dan-seeen al nait laaan" perish as well? Or do I have to go back over there and finish the job?

Whatever happened to T-Boz and Chilli? Did they even try to have solo careers?

Tuomas, Tuesday, 2 December 2008 10:03 (seventeen years ago)

Both are releasing solo albums next year. And the last TLC album 3D which only featured Lisa on a few songs was pretty good.

Sad.

most heartless ILM thread ever?

Mr. Snrub, Monday, 24 May 2010 01:26 (sixteen years ago)

This is the worst ILM thread or damn near.

The Reverend, Monday, 24 May 2010 01:31 (sixteen years ago)

i heard waterfalls in the car the other day. the same things that made it annoying at the time made it mildly intriguing now. still don't like TLC though.

by another name (amateurist), Monday, 24 May 2010 02:01 (sixteen years ago)

it was great at the time and has only gotten better

i was just thinking of this. RIP.

my favourite underrated performance by her. she plays both the girl and the boy! she flirts with herself and then gives herself the kiss-off! it all sounds a bit lesbian! amazing.

lex pretend, Monday, 25 April 2011 18:08 (fifteen years ago)

What the hell were you doing in Honduras, girl?

Land of Rap and Homies (kkvgz), Monday, 25 April 2011 18:13 (fifteen years ago)

^^^ If I can recall, she was doing some charity type work in Honduras. I think she even adopted a little girl from there as well.

She threatened to quit prior to the recording of "FanMail," and was reportedly infuriated that none of the eight songs she had written for the album made the final cut. Presumably there are demos of these somewhere, or even finished mixed versions that just didn't get released.

Also, I don't think any of those TLC demos she wrote for FanMail ever leaked except one I believe. Here is the 2000's version of it:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zA9jkqUEVk

It's too bad because she was what made the first album so memorable, and the raps she did thereafter were great as well. I believe her rap on "Waterfalls" is what makes that song spectacular. She is never talked about when the topic of female MC's come up which is strange.

Also, her first solo single just because:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kl-gEopCI4U

P.S. What the fuck is wrong with early ILM posers? Seriously, I'm glad they rarely post because that is just fucked up beyond snark. That's cruelty up thread.

lilsoulbrother, Monday, 25 April 2011 21:24 (fifteen years ago)

one year passes...

For the first time in nearly a decade, TLC will be reuniting for a U.S. concert tour later this year -- and TMZ has learned, the late Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes will be making a special appearance.

The group's rep tells us, Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas are currently in the planning stages of a massive 2012 reunion tour in the U.S.

So far, we're told 5 major cities have already been booked -- and even more are in the works.

But the big surprise ... we're told the group plans to pull a Tupac -- incorporating their deceased former member Left Eye in the shows, projecting her image on a big screen and working her vocals into the live performances.

FYI -- today marks 10 years since a fatal car accident in Honduras took Left Eye's life. RIP.
