I loved reading T-Boz, Chilli, and Dallas talking about some of the deeper cuts on the album. FanMail was the first CD I ever owned, and I played it so much that I had already gone through several CD copies of it by the time I was a teenager. The general consensus among fans seems to be that the futuristic nature of the album has caused it to age worse than their other 90's LPs, but it's still my favorite. It's getting a fair share of positive press around its 20th anniversary, with articles like the Billboard one highlighting tracks other than just the singles plus I'm Good At Being Bad. Pitchfork did a really nice retrospective back in 2012: pitchfork.com/features/article/8827-tlc/ |

I actually don't care much for the singles (though "No Scrubs" was a jam at the time), but I do like a lot of the album tracks - Fanmail, Silly Ho, I'm So Good at Being Bad, Miss You So Much.

Damn... 20 years... time is flying! =(
I love this album so much! I wish they had worked the album better... so may missed opportunities for single releases.
I love "Dear Lie" but I don't know why they though it was a good option for 3rd single.

Back then, I was obsessed. Revisiting now, I probably like about half the album. It doesn't hit me like CrazySexyCool does.

I still enjoy this album. This album is a favorite of mine. Since 6th grade I have played it so much. This album is electronically based, but it does contain variety of sounds, which I do enjoy as well. I will play this album forever.

Happy 25th. I was in 5th grade at that time it was released. I remember a girl was playing it in class. I would rank Fanmail after the debut and CrazySexyCool. My fave tracks are No Scrubs (an anthem!), Unpretty, Silly Ho, and I'm Good At Being Bad.
