TLC is back. I personally LOVE all 4 tracks that have been prereleased. Unfortunately, we live in a hateful world. There are negative comments that TLC is not the same group without Left Eye. This is a given & they are different. However, you must recognize that the remaining members still have something powerful to say and that is important. The awesome songs released so far: Way Back - I enjoyed how they sang this song and payed homage to great artists. A true sign of continued success is the acknowledgement of your peers, past & present. TLC does this awesomely with this smooth summer groove. Haters - I feel like this song is a modern day Unpretty. Rather than telling haters to continue to hate on them ala Jill Scott, TLC, chooses to tell people (the HATED) to continue with their lives as if those people don't even exist. This works for those whose are posting negative comments here as well. "People are going to say what they say. We don't care about that anyway." It's Sunny - A true throwback! I love the sampling of the old school Earth, Wind & Fire song - September - ingenious!! It's highly unlikely that you would hear rappers going that route. This song is uplifting & refreshing. American Gold (released recently) - This is their most political song. When folks bleed, they are basically bleeding gold because of their rich ancestry. This song is saying a lot. I feel like it discusses the death of the average Joe as well as the loss of superstars. Finally, I want to commend TLC for continuing to give us great music. They actually sat down and thought about giving us a message. Unfortunately, not everyone will get it because they are too busy looking for flaws.
