**---T-BOZ.. LEFT-EYE... & CHILLI (TLC) FANZ EXCLUSIVE---**
TLC was a four-time[1] Grammy Award-winning American Hip Hop and R&B group, consisting of Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas. Billboard magazine ranks the group as one of the greatest musical trios of all time.[2] They have had #1 hit singles such as, "Creep", "Waterfalls", "No Scrubs", and "Unpretty". According to the RIAA and Billboard, TLC are the most successful R&B Girl Group and has been certified for more than 22 million records in the United States[3]. In 2008, the group was inducted into the All Time Hot 100 Artist Hall of Fame by Billboard magazine at 56th place. [4]
Their second album, CrazySexyCool (1994), was the first album by a female group to be awarded diamond certification by the RIAA for selling over 11 million copies in the USA.[5]
In early 2002, just before the release of TLC's fourth Album, 3D, Lopes was killed in a car accident in Honduras. Watkins and Thomas promoted 3D as a duo, and in 2005, hosted a reality television show, R U the Girl, with a grand prize of a chance to record a song and perform once in concert with the surviving group members, both of whom have released solo material and continued to occasionally collaborate.
