Thsi was never a single, but a well known album track. I think it was the B-side to "Diggin' In You" overseas.
Anyway, this song is SO strong... it's lyrics are great and certainly relatable... all 3 TLC's have good parts and all sound great. Outkast is has some great rhymes as the guest rappers. This is classic TLC.
If this song were new, and released today, I feel that it would be a hit for them. I almost wish they could add this to the Greatest Hits CD and promote it as their new single. It needs to be heard more.

It's a very good song. One of the best from the excellent CSC album!

Yup, good stuff. That album was SO good, don't remember the last time there was an album with that much quality material on it...

Another great thing about this song is that all 3 members have pretty equal parts... and they are all sounding their best.

I love Left Eye's part My mind is ready to flo-OH This is a great Lefteye rap. That's part of why I wish we'd get this as the new single... I mean the Greatest Hits album is the perfect chance to add this on, and release it as a single... which would be 8 years overdue.

An underrated midtempo track from Crazysexycool. I loved all 4 singles from the album but I wouldn't have had a problem with this being released either. Very soulful song that delivers a great message.

I'm listening to this now and it's soo good. It might feature my favorite Left Eye rap too. I feel like CrazySexyCool could have gone several singles deeper than it did.

I always wanted this and "Switch" (but mostly this) to be released. This is my favorite TLC track.

I remember hearing 'Switch' was one of 3 songs that was considered to being the 4th single. Long behold, 'Diggin' on You' won that honor.
This was a great way for them to close out that iconic album. It showed that they were still politically conscious & aware w/what was going on at that time. I miss my gurlz :'(

HOW DID THAT TLC make is part me? I owned CSC but i probably never listened to the last tracks bc the singles were higher in the track listing. I LOVE this SWITCH song!

This is a highlight on the album and adds to the Prince vibe of the project.
What happened to Organized Noize because they produced some great stuff in the mid-90s?

This song makes me think of that NY Undercover episode called “Tag You’re Dead” because they played this in the beginning of the episode.
