After being enlisted to executive producer the latest posthumous Aaliyah album, it seems ‘HYFR‘ Rapper Drake has moved on to creative pastures new.
Pastures, that come in the form of the brand spanking new ‘TLC’ album.
Full story below…
In an interview with CNN, lead singer T-Boz revealed when quizzed on Left Eye‘s inclusion on their new material:
“We’re talking about with Drake and other people, so we’ll see‘.
If a contribution by Drake does come to fruition, it will mark what appears to be a rising trend led by Blackground Records, who- as mentioned earlier- named the Rapper the lead Creative on Aaliyah‘s forthcoming effort.
Perhaps hoping to bridge their classic sound with his ear for crafting contemporary smash hits, it will be interesting to see what the final product sounds like- and how fans of the ‘Creep‘ singers will respond critically and commercially.

I think Drake can bring TLC back to the R&B/Hip-Hop forefront!!! But commercially relevant?? That’s a bit iffy unless he brings in big names for collabs, but I’m excited!!!

No, just retire gracefully. I dont understand why the music stars of yester-year keep trying to revive their careers. Madonna is the highest selling female in history and even her last album didn’t perform well. What makes Tboz think TLC is immune to this?

You are right, legends never fade but how will they fare in today’s music climate??????
This isn’t the 90′s anymore, they passed their peak. There are artists that are in the same boat with them from that generation that are struggling to sell today. Look at Brandy, Mariah Carey, Monica, Xtina, Usher, Toni Braxton, B. Spears, etc. Lets be honest, most of the young kiddies have no idea who TLC is unless they’re an absolute music junkie.

Fuck “today’s climate.” All the time I hear you silly ass 90s babies talking about “generation” this and “generation” that…”the iTunes generation” doesn’t go for this….”how will they fare in today’s music climate?” BLAH BLAH BLAH. Fuck all that. You lames don’t even buy your own supposed IT-acts albums, and instead opt for cheap ass singles like a bunch of bitches. TLC, Usher, Mariah, etc. all went diamond. Aside from Adele, when was the last time someone you stan was even able to push multi-platinum?
When you break down the numbers, 90s stars really don’t do THAT much worse today than the so-called more “relevant” stars of late whose fans don’t seem to know what a CD or whole album is. You’ll have someone have the number one song for months, and then not buy 100k of their album when it drops. The fuck is that? Who in the hell are any of you to act cocky?
Go ahead and release that album TLC. I’ll buy it.

These fools don’t know. The iTunes generation celebrates a Gold-certification like it’s Diamond, and thinks that their faves having a 100 million video views on YouTube, or so many Twitter followers, is a “success.”
It’s very true that when you are an icon and/or legend, then you will always have a place at the table. That’s the whole point of paying dues and achieving success. Their place has been earned. Will TLC score a big hit album should they reband? No. But their past success left a big enough mark for there to still be fans who’re interested. That’s what matters. Not being embraced by dumbass Rihanna/Taylor Swift fans, who were born after 1996 and think that a phone is the equivalent of a stereo. Please.

I agree. Legends will always be relevant. I don’t hear anyone telling Diana Ross, Aretha, Patti, etc to sit. As music careers go long in music sales, and airplay dwindle. That doesn’t mean your voice, and passion stop or that there is no audience for you.
This is their craft…..

Besides most seasoned artists use new albums as a promotional tool for their concert tours now. They know they don’t sell records as strong, but those arenas are packed with fans…

Good music has nothing to do with sales; and check your facts; 3D sold 2 million copies and you calling that a flop. The acts that are at the top of the game now aint selling that. Bring on some new music TLC! Besides it’s the soundtrack for the movie; and alot of ppl will be checking for that movie with all the drama that surrounded them as well with “What’s Love Got to do With it ” director on board!

Ugh. If T-Boz and Chilli do another TLC album, then I don’t want Drake anywhere near it. Bring back Dallas Austin and Babyface. That’s the template for a TLC album. I don’t need no Drake, no Rico Love, no Guetta, no Calvin Harris, no RedOne, no electropop. None of that. Gimme a REAL TLC sounding album, or don’t do it.
The fuck is with Drake trying to reproduce all these girl acts anyway? Makes me question him…

I get so tired of sum of u chaps or youngins as my grandma would say. Y’all don’t knw anything about the history r art of real music from real artists and not fake gimmick artists. As sumone said above TLC r already legends and sold millions of records and r one of the best girl groups to ever do it. They don’t have to prove anything and yes they still have a fanbase. Why would they want to bow out gracefully when they r still able sing and perform. Hell patti labelle,aretha, madonna,sade and etc r still doing their thang by putting out albums and touring around the world and arenas be packed out. They r way older then tlc are. Hell lionel richie came back with a vengence with his last album and went platinum in months. He sold more records last year than he had in awhile. So plzzzzz exit to the left with dat BS.
