@enchantedpr @missyelliott @diggitent @la_reid @dallasaustin @simoncowell please support this TLC comeback!
OK LET ME JUST TELL I WAS VOTING FOR TLC IN ALMOST EVERY CATEGORY AND SAW THAT DESTINY´S CHILD WAS WINNING IN EVERY CATEGORY AND TLC WASNT EVEN CLOSE TO WINNING ONE DAY LATER I CHECKED THE VOTES AGAIN AND TLC WAS WINNING ALL OF A SUDDEN… im just saying someone fuckd with the poll im not a tlc hater im a fan but still destiny´s child won the poll actualy… same thing happend to that best female rapper pole lil kim didnt actualy win all catergorys. I found out if you vote on the poll refresh the page and vote again both votes will count… and that happend!
I AGREE!!! DON’T GET ME WRONG I LOVE TLC!!! THEY WERE MY FAV FOREVER…. BUT COME ON SOMETHING WASN’T RIGHT WHEN I SAW THEY WERE WINNING IN “BEST HARMONY” THAT SHOULD HAVE WENT TO ENVOUGE (LIKE THEM OR NOT) THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN AN EASY POLL FOR DESTINY’S CHILD TO WIN…. BUT IT’S COOL THOUGH…. I’M GLAD ONE OF MY FAVORITE GROUPS WON
I noticed the exact same thing. lol. TGJ rigged this poll, like they do all of their “polls.”
LMFAO @ these results…@TGJ yall got to do better.
I don’t know how monumental their reunion would be without Lisa. I am not opposed to it and I look forward to some new music and I’m sure they have some unreleased vocals of Left Eye they could use…but its nothing like the three of them together.
are you f****** serious??? looool
THANK YOU. DS HAD THE OVER-ALL RESULT. THEIR LYING!!! DS ARE A LOT BETTER THAN TLC!
Now TLC Set The Bar For DC3 And Pass The Torch To Them..
I keep forgetting that most of the people who vote on here are kids. If you were alive during the time when TLC was popular, you would know that they were entertaining, but were no match singing wise for a lot of other groups. On top of that, they only had one CD to actually cross over and climb the charts
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT??? VOCALLY THE WHOLE OF TLC COULDN’T DELIVER… DS COULD SING EACH AND EVERYONE OF THEM!!!
That’s why he said “no match”. He didn’t mean that they were great vocalists, he meant that they weren’t as vocally good as many other groups
only one cd to cross over and climb the charts? uhh no, both CSC and Fanmail were crossover hits.
was certified 4X platinum in the US alone. if thats not a crossover hit i don’t know what it. crazy s*** cool was certified diamond by the riaa and fanmail sold upwards of 6 million copies in the US.
Thats 3 HUGE albums.
That said… how they beat en vogue or swv for best harmonies is beyond me. i def think that they take best discography, best live performances, and even without left eye i might still give them please get back together. if it was most DISTINCT fashion i would give them the win there too. but best? i don’t know. its absurd that the supremes weren’t voted most influential. shows the demographic of this site.
oooh on the tlc tip was certified 4 times platinum. not sure what happened to that first part of my post. lol
yaaaaay! TLC WON! AHHHH LOVE THEM 🙂
I was about to tear this site apart if TLC was snubbed!!! YESSS!
YAY TLC… THERE IS ONLY ONE!!! No other girl group can touch their magic… it was that unspoken indescribable attribute. Which is why they are the biggest selling female group… and the only girl group on Rolling Stone’s Top 500 Albums of All Time.
IF anyone knows music they will KNOW that TLC had a VERY profound affect on music and were the most influential girl group of the 90s! Destiny’s Child came in towards the end when girl groups were beginning to fade out and at the peak of their success had no competition because their success came in the early 2000s which is when girl groups were no longer popular or disbanded. Destiny’s Child were NOT as influential as TLC that is a FACT. Only reason they were considered is because of Beyonce, take her away and I am SURE almost noone would consider them the best girl group. TLC were a REAL group, each member stood out and had their time and it wasn’t about just ONE PERSON. Rock on TLC!
YES TLC and that’s where it’s AT!!!!
VERY WELL DESERVED!!! TLC were the most original girl group of all time, they embodied everything that become the blueprint for all Girl groups that came after them, from Soul/ Pop/ Rock/ R&B/FUNK and HIP HOP there is not a musical commercial style that they did not venture, in terms of image again in there own words they had it all Crazy, S*** and Cool, from Spice Girls too Destiny’s Child before there was a Bills Bills Bills, there was a No Scrubs, Before there was the fiestyness of Wannabe from The Spice Girls there was an Ain’t To Proud To Beg, they re-shaped and re-defined what a modern girl Girl group was supposed to be, there video and album concepts were timeless and short of genius and there songs empowered and educated men and women everywhere, They were the Original Independent Women and The Orignal Girl Power Trio and they didn’t have to state it in any songs, it was just who they were! Vocally the soul of Chilli, The Funk of T Boz and the Hip Hop Rap of Lisa gave you everything you needed and as far as performance they were un-comparable, no one can top the medley they did on the MTV Awards,. RIP LIsa, TLC is FOREVER!
YAY! TLC WON!!!! THEY DESERVE THE RECOGNITION BECAUSE THEY WERE THE BEST AT TACKLING REAL LIFE ISSUES IN THEIR ARTISTRY: WATERFALLS (H**/A*** PREVENTION), UNPRETTY (SELF-ESTEEM), NO SCRUBS (SELF-WORTH), DAMAGED (DOMESTIC VIOLENCE). THE OVERALL THEMES OF EMPOWERMENT, SAFE SEXUAL ATTITUDES AND INDIVIDUALITY WAS ALWAYS PRESENT IN THEIR WORK. THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER GROUP THAT GARNERED SUCH MAINSTREAM SUCCESS (DIAMOND-CERTIFIED “CRAZYSEXYCOOL” ALBUM) WITHOUT STAYING TRUE TO THEMSELVES! R.I.P. LEFT EYE & I HOPE THAT T-BOZ & CHILLI CAN DO ONE LAST PERFORMANCE THROUGH THE TUPAC-HOLOGRAM-TECHNOLOGY WITH OUR FALLEN SISTER SO WE CAN ALL SEE THE GREATNESS THAT WAS TLC, ONCE AGAIN!
TLC only had one crossover album? GTFO. CrazySexyCool & Fanmail both crossed over. Get it together, DC fans. TLC IS THE ONLY GIRL GROUP TO RECEIVE DIAMOND CERTIFICATION FOR AN ALBUM. lets not be stupid about the success and contributions of TLC. They are your favorites fav’s.
Votes were rigged. TLC influence wasn’t as massive as their fans think. Sure there were other girl groups out. They(TLC)just had a more established force at the time promoting them. They were no different than any girl group from the 90s'(I was there remember them well). To see them win live performance is even more laughable…..
There were more stylish groups,MUCH BETTER VOCAL GROUPS that were overlooked. Plus don’t give me that DC was the only group out.Look at Pussycat dolls and danity Kane….if that were the case they both would’ve mattered…..they don’t.
S*** even destiny’s child debut vocals slays every last one of TLC’s ….im just saying
I demand a f****** recount. You can’t be serious.
This is a JOKE!!!
spice girls highest selling girl group of all time.
No they’re not, they were but Destiny’s Child stole that title in late 2005. It was announced that the AMA’s that year.
It’ll be interesting to do a poll on the greatest male vocalists of all time, at least for a change. This site is a little too fixated on female stuff. Or is it run by gay people?
i agree
this site is too fixated on females
Love TLC but Destiny’s Child in my eyes are the greatest girl group of all time!
That was interesting
I will not be voting again. I prefer TLC of Destiny’s Child, but they were the clear frontrunner. The Bey stings will be upset about this.
TLC IS GRAMMY AWARD WINNING MAGIC YES THEY WILL HAVE CHALLENGES WITHOUT LISA HOWEVER T&C CAN DO IT AND I BELIVE THE LOYAL FANS HAVE THE UPMOST FAITH IN THEM!!!! I SURE DO, YOU CANNOT DUPLICATE 2XGRAMMY AWARD WINNING MAGIC AND NOT TO MENTION WHAT OTHER GIRL GROUP CAN WIN A GRAMMY IN 1995 OR 1996 AND TURN AROUND 5 YRS LATER WHEN THE MUSIC INDUSTRY HAS CHANGED USE A DIFFERENT VOICE ON A SINGLE NO SCRUBS THAT IS AND WIN ANOTHER GRAMMY TLC DID IT NO OTHER GIRL GROUP HAS EVER DONE THAT AND THEIRS NO DUPLICATING ANY OF THEIR VOICES OR STYLES #GRAMMY AWARD WINNING MAGIC TLC IS 4EVA!!!!!!
I’m a TLC STAN, and I agree with the results of this poll BSIDE the one for Best harmony. I LOVE TLC but there harmonies are average…it should have certainly went to EnVogue. But TLC certainly owned in every other category, especially Discography, best live performance and most influential. Their fashion was Unique…tomboyishly girly, which was hot at da time, look @ Aaliyah and other females out at the time. Their fashion was WAY better in comparison to DC, because DC’s fashion didn’t start lookin good until the Destiny Fulfilled album. Tina Knowles creations are HORRIBLE lol
Yes!!! I’m sorry TLC are icons!!! 1. They didn’t have to dress like whores to sell there records. 2. They sang about real issues – H**/A***, Domestic Violence, Self-Worth, Safe S**. 3. Never hear negativity about the girls and them going on stupid. 4. CrazySexyCool was the best sold girl group album of all time. Do you hear about those types of songs anymore?? no!!! That is why the younger generation is so damn lost and it’s pathetic!!! I’m glad I was growing up during the 90’s, real music during that time. I’m sorry I like DC but they never tackled world issues than TLC!!! Congrats TLC!!!
The gays are DYING because Destiny’s Child didn’t win lol, Why do f*** think that their opinion matters so much???
so tlc got only str8 fans?
Using words like “f***” only displays your level of intellect & ignorance. I’m a DC3 fan & I’m not gay. I’m certain that TLC has a lot of gay fans.
NOW THIS IS COMPLETE BULLSH***
How are they remotely better than En Vogue and I like TLC?
Oh and shall we discuss the “LIVE” performances I remember seeing where TLC was SINGING OVER A BACKTRACK or is that BS conversation just reserved for Chris Brown?
TLC>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
A lot of love for TLC shame I wasn’t around when they begun, I can only recall waterfalls and No scrubs
But IMO DC is the best
Oh yeeesssss….. TLC,TLC, TLC, I voted and we did TLC fans….. TLC Now an forever…R.I.P. Lisa
I’m shocked is not Destiny’s Child hahaha.
who eva said dc came out in 2000 is dumb ass f*** they were in the 90’s no no no was a hit in 97
The difference between TLC & DC is that TLC was strong as a group, but individually they brought nothing to the table. How successful was Chilly & T-Boz after the group decided to settle down? DC on the other hand were not only strong as a group but as individual artists for the most part. All of them have reached success beyond the group (some more than others). Michelle has done her plays, Kelly was the first of the group to receive a Grammy as a solo act & has had a decent solo career. Beyonce now being one of the biggest names in music has done it all from Grammys to movies to having 4 consecutive number 1 albums as a solo artist. That’s the one thing I admire about DC, individually they slay as much as they do as a group. That is my opinion & you don’t have to agree.
Didn’t expect that. Thought Destiny’s child had it in the bag.
I can understand every other category EXCEPT Best harmony…. WTH??? Now I wouldn’t have voted for them in neither category… but i can at least i can understand why some ppl voted for them…. but best harmonies …no maam… not in the same category with The Supremes, Destiny Child, SWV, and especially EnVogue
THIS CLEARLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN A WIN FOR DESTINY’S CHILD…I LOVE TLC BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE THAT WOW FACTOR TO ME…AND TLC FOR BEST HARMONY GTFOH…!!!!!!!! ANYWHO DC3 FOREVER!!!
In terms of vocals – Beyonce, Kelly and Michelle are better singers than T boz and Chili but TLC were more influential. Although their singing was blah it worked for them. Also they were more VERSATILE and their songs were more catchy.
Michelle. Kelly and Beyonce will 4eva be my Fav girl Group! I loved all 3 (michelle the most she was the underdog) like people would say michelle can’t sing but If you been to the destiny fulfilled tour She SANG! Didn’t like that beyonce got all the attention But still they were AMAZING made epic tracks! Slayed the videos and are sOoo Close with one another its Crzy . Love TLC they 2nd to me Pcd you can say what they slayed to but it was more nicole nd her dancers
Quit bitching and haters, the results are there in black and white, deal with it and move on…
In other news, TLC fans and lovers, come and support the TLC UK tour 2012!
http://www.facebook.com/TLCUKtour
YES TLC MY GIRLZZZ.
I’m glad they won. They really were a great trio. Their music was innovative as for style without being overly sexual. Left eye was the brain of the group. She rly made it stronger, successful, and popular.
Of course they did! No one else deserves the title. For a second I thought TGJ was going to rig the votes to Destiny’s Child, because this voting thing went on for a long time and they kept showing DC’S pics. But the fans spoke and the real winners are TLC!
I think it’s great that TLC won. However, I think people just voted for TLC without even looking to see what they voted for. For example, best harmony. TLC was great at a lot of things, but BEST harmony? No.
Well statistically and in terms of #1 singles and Albums its between DC and Spice Girls.
so whatever the old ass audience of this site has spoken complete b******* yet again like when they said Michael Jackson was the most influential artist of the 00s when it should have been between Beyonce and Eminem.
LMFAO.
TLC WAS VERY DESERVING OF THIS WIN. THEY ARE THE MOST INFLUENTIAL GIRL GROUP EVER! THEY HAD SO MANY GREAT SONGS WITH POWERFUL MEANINGS IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE, THAT MEN AND WOMEN COULD RELATE TO. IT DIDN’T MATTER ABOUT HOW GREAT THEY WERE VOCALLY. IT WAS THE VOCAL BLEND AND CHOICE OF MUSIC THAT MADE THEM UNIQUE AND SPECIAL. EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM WAS DIFFERENT, BUT MOST OF ALL UNLIKE ANY OF THE REST OF THESE GIRL GROUPS I WILL SAY THEY WERE THE MOST ARTISTIC AND EXPRESSED THEMSELVES IN WAYS THE WHOLE WORLD FELT CONNECTED. THATS WHAT BEING AN ENTERTAINER AND ARTIST IS ALL ABOUT. YOU CAN HAVE ALL THE VOCALS AND HARMONIES IN THE WORLD BUT IF YOU CAN’T EXPRESS YOURSELF IN A VULNERABLE WAY AND CONNECT WITH THE AUDIENCE YOU WILL NEVER FULLY ACHIEVE GREATNESS. THATS WHAT ARTIST TODAY ARE LACKING AND WHY RECORD SALES ARE DOWN. THE GENERATION OF TODAY HAS NO IDEA WHAT THEY ARE TRULY MISSING IN MUSIC PERIOD! SMH.
Um wit you on this one because people keep saying they didnt have good vocal i ask all of yall to go listen to TLC’s album from OOOOOOhhh on TLC tip 2 CRAZYSEXYCOOL to Fanmail and hear there vocals harmonies they are there the difference with them and DC and envouge is TLC has less voices to work with and TLC were very hip about it so they didnt flesh out there harmonies like they were a church group like DC plus when it was dc4 harmonies were important esp by the background Letoya Latavia and kELLY AND Beyonce but DC lacked in showcasing each girl I think that is what ultimately makes them a let down becasue people didnt get to hear the originals vocal making it easy to replace them and when michelle got in the group they gave her the least vocals or made Beys vocal the loudest as which to me felt like it was to make her appear the strongest which ultimately kinda ruined the point of what a group is supposed to be. But in fairness the DC’s girl voices do blend well so you have to know all of them indiviually for you to hear their voices on tracks Beys voice is just the loudest. I think thats why peole think Kelly’s biting beys sound on some of her songs when they almost have the same sound but TLC had great chemistry and even when they had their probs they still stuck it out together which was real sisterhood I Just wish the DC could of been that way becasue from day 1 all four of them would talk about sisterhood and i dnt blame them i think it was matthew and co but they could of atleast mentioned Letoya and Latavia in a good light rather than trying to make it seem as if they didnt ever exisist and if people recognized them then they didn’t do much when they helpd build that group off the ground and made two breakout albums with the girls to become the force that is was DC. Out of the two they are both great groups just different people can argue or go look up their history videos interviews all of it but Dc came after all the groups on this so they had the blessing of being after what was great and they were able to be better adopting what all of the girl groups before them had done and some. Just think about it I beleieve there’s more in store
LLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLl YALL HATAS IS MAD JUST GIVE IT UP TLC IS A WILL FOREVERR BE THE F***** BEST GIRL GROUP EVER THE OTHER GROUPS WERE JUST SPOT FILLERS UNTILL TLC DECIED TO COME BACK THATS ALL THE REST OF THESE GROUPS DONT COUNT TLC IS WHO MATTER PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING ‘WINK’ WINK’ HI HATAS NOW BYE HATAS LOL GIVE IT A REST THEY WON ITS DONE
I love TLC, but BEST HARMONY over groups like En Vogue and Destiny’s Child? I don’t think so…they never even harmonized!!!!??? This poll is a joke. Also, they swept the category for “Please Get back Together”? I think faitful fans of TLC are setting themselves up for disappointment because we all know the group is really nothing without Left Eye! There is no denying their legacy but damn…some people are delusional.
How did they win Best Harmony against En Vogue. like be real. The poll is a flop & a waste of time.
I agree for them to be Most Influential and Best dressed. But as far as harmony and live performances that should have went to En Vogue, and Destiny’s Child.
Very well deserved!! I missed this voting period, but I would have voted for TLC too!! There’s no other group like them period. They are the most creative, innovative, entertaining and equally fine (all members looked good) ever!
TLC Slaayyssssssss souls. #EndofStory
Really, LMAO….LMAO…..this is pure fuckery at best…LMAO…
I Love Destinys Child and TLC:-) Counting the days down,can’t wait to see BeyBey get it on stage again.Yes Ma’am:-)
TLC ALL THE WAY!! SO PLEASED THEY WON THIS POLL.PEOPLE TRULY KNOW WHAT MUSIC IS REALLY ALL ABOUT IN 2012. T-BOZ, LEFT EYE & CHILLI HAVE BEEN SO INFLUENTIAL TO SO MANY CURRENT ARTISTS AND PPL OVER THE WORLD & BROKE MANY BOUNDARIES, THEY MADE DESCISIONS MOST GROUPS WOULD BE AFRAID TO ATTEMPT!! TLC ARE TRUE LEGENDS IN ENTERTAINMENT AND THIS MAKES MY DAY, AS THIS YEAR CELEBRATES THEIR 20TH ANNIVERSARY IN MUSIC, SO THEY DESERVE TO HAVE TOPPED THIS, NO QUESTION. i WILL LOVE TLC & THEIR MUSIC FOREVER AND LOOK FORWARD TO WHAT THEY HAVE IN STORE FOR US SOON 🙂 CAN’T WAIT!!
lmfaoooooo
Oh YES. Oh f****** yea!!!!!!!!! TLC WAS IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE SUGAR HONEY ICE TEA. Three little mommas we’re so massive. I love them. Behind my girls….definitely En Vogue.
HI HATAS TLC IS THE ONLY GROUP TO RECIEVE A “DIAMOND” CERTIFIED ALBUM WHICH GROUP IN THIS CATEGORY ALBUM CAN COME CLOSE TO CRAZYSEXYCOOL AND THE MASSIVENESS IT MADE PLUS TLC IS THE ONLY GROUP IN THIS LIST TO NEVER “BREAK UP” AND” STAY TOGETHER:” THE LONGEST .THIS WIN IS WELL DESERVED NOW BYE HATAS
I love TLC but this was a fail
Im sorry but TLC has to be the most overrated girl group of all time.and what these dumbass TLC fans dont get is good music doesnt have to deal with a*** and domestic problems. A song can have the most simplest lyrics AND concept and be the BOMB DIGGITY. And im a DC Stan ALL DAY, but i think that there were so many other groups that s*** all over TLC. BUT thats just my opinion…
Umm, no one shits on TLC get that f****** straight first of all. And actually DC is the most overrated group. Yes they were good, but Beyonce is the only reason they were as popular. If it wasn’t for Bey, DC wouldn’t have gotten nearly as far. TLC are legends. They are the only girl group in history to have a diamond selling album in the US. CrazySexyCool sold over 23 million copies worldwide, and FanMail sold 15 million. The Writing’s On The Wall was DC’s best album overall and only sold 12 million worldwide. But DC is better right? In the words of Michael Kyle, uhhh nuh.
WTF SWV SHOULDA WON!!!! THOSE GHETTO B****** WERE THE BEST
