    I had severe crushes on all 3 of them growing up. I was like 7 and I was convinced those were the prettiest women in the world.

    TLC were absolutely groundbreaking and one of the most important groups of the 90s. A lot of the pop music that came in the following decades is very influenced by them. Albums like CrazySexyCool or FanMail absolutely still hold up. They really don’t have the recognition they deserve imho.

    They were really in their fucking bag here epitome of Crazy, Sexy Cool. 

    They really are an all time GROUP where the sum is truly greater than the sum of its parts. 

    There always something so fun, youthful and unscripted about all of their videos (except unprettty for good reason)

    This is the worst cover of Radiohead Creep I’ve ever heard, yet somehow it stands on its own merits.

    Ever since hearing that T-Boz was diagnosed with sickle cell disease at the age of seven, I get really excited when I hear about advancements and treatment in the hopes that it will help her. What a groundbreaking group.

    This reminds me I used to be really good at handstands for a time in youth.

    I will ask this question weekly until I die. 

    How come we have incredible video quality of this 1995 music video, but every single metal or metal adjacent music video from 2000-2010 is at like god damn 240p?

    Who has all the quality footage?  VEVO?  Do we need to start taking hostages?

    And they were still broke as fuck, despite the #1 hit and millions of copies sold.

    As a young boy, something about T Boz’s hairstyle and her raspy voice just did things to me. She could get it all day. All three of them were smoke shows but T Boz was my girl.

    This is the best “Creep” of the 90s and I say that as a massive Radiohead (all-time favorite band) and STP fan.

    I heard Left Eye was mad at the song content. She was a tre jelly person. That’s why she’s so mad in the video.

    Thirty years later and it’s number one in my heart.

    TLC, STP, and Radiohead all had big hits called “Creep” all around the same time.

    This single dropped in October of 1994, and it was at #10 in April of 1995
