LA Reid has always come off as a smarmy scumbag to me, so I'm not surprised. For all the Mimi fans, remember that LA is the one who pushed HARD for "Say Something" to be a single, only for all of Mimi's choices to be massive hits (WBT, SIO, DFAU, GYN in Europe). Aaaaand he was skeezy pond scum even before all of his artists went bankrupt because of advances - there's an old interview with him and Babyface from when Toni Braxton first broke through. Face was trying to go on and on about Toni being such a strong songwriter and pianist, and LA kept cutting him off only talking about her voice and looks. On Wendy he said he didn't hear the "Huge" hit on Mariah's Emancipation album so he had her go back and write one. According to him that's how we got "We Belong Together" She brought back the song back to him within a day I believe. I also don't think he said people don't want to hear new music from TLC at all. He basically meant that when people go to concerts they want to hear the Hits mostly. In my opinion he kind of stuck up for Janet a little by not completely feeding into Wendy's remarks about not wanting to hear her new music. He agreed about wanting to hear the hits in concert but he had wanted to work on new music and did with Janet awhile back. I didn't know or I forgot about LA Reid and Gay rumors but he answered my question on Wendy without even having to address the rumors.

Well Toni herself said LA And babyface were in her side and helped her win her settlement.

Maybe he was pissed at Chilli cuz she found out he is a closeted queen? Completely inappropriate.

Um, what messy pr.????? Let's ask fans for money to start up an album only to go on tour with the NKOTB and keep saying it's coming. Then have one member put out a solo single. Whether the company paid for the studio time and song or not it looks "Shady".

No matter how much you keep them up to date with EXACTLY what is going on with the album, just deliver the thing and honor the agreement - don't be seen releasing some solo track 14 months later when there's still no sign of the album your fans have funded.

So she has time for a fitness venture, tour, and other bullsh!t endeavors but her and T-Boz can't get into the studio for a week and knock out some demo tracks for an album. Bye.

Again you need to keep yourself updated with TLC news (if you are ACTUALLY into their progress).They have been posting videos and pictures from recording sessions and update their ACTUAL fans from time to time. So instead of trolling around you need to focus on drunk Miss Piggy and her disaster of a life (and career as well it seems).

Let's be real...... Who cares about a solo single from Chilli in 2016? She was the one completely left behind w/ that I'll have a solo career delusion back in the day when TLC was still relevant. Girl, stop wasting our your time.

I wouldn't call a successful Vegas residency, outstanding SOLO tour that is currently happening in Europe, and snatching a BILLIONAIRE with prime kitty a disaster darling. Don't come for a b!tch that doesn't have to resort to crowdfunding after being deemed "one of the greatest" like Chili and T-Boz. Now clock that because what they said was just the shared view from everybody else on these pages. You just came to attack because you saw Mariah "I can do sh!t by myself" Carey.

All that blah blah blah doesn't change the fact that THIS IS a TLC topic. So Ms. Piggy fans can go eff themselves and not troll this topic with bullshit they have concocted without knowing FACTS. No one in this topics gives a tiny rat's ass about Mariah. Now SCRAM!!

Someone needs to go listen to Unpretty until this GoFundMe album comes out and hope it cleanses the demons inside.

Again take your own freakin advice and if you are so clueless about the actual progress of the album you should skip right past this whole topic. #Scram.

I'm still anticipating their new album. Regardless of the other ventures and what not they (Chilli) have going. TLC always deliver solid albums with a cohesive body of work.

As i have been accused of "trolling" (which is ridiculous and people need to check their definitions of trolling) so i am going to post the actual FACTS now. Here's the progress of the album straight from Chilli's mouth.

The HQ version of Chilli's "Body" is pretty cute. Still wish she'd consider releasing "GameProof" to iTunes just for the fans. Or perhaps rework it and put it on the new TLC album!

Those of you pressed about the Kickstarter album release date must not be familiar with TLC's track record on releasing albums on time.

It's about time ! Knowing them being "done" is no indication for a release. Bill Diggins said the last quarter so we still have some time to go. I just hope the end product is as good as fanmail if not better and definitely better than 3D. I also hope that they have aDrake collaboration in there (although there hasn't been any news).

So really if it's on the same level I won't be mad. Btw yeah with the girls we never know, I wouldn't be surprised if it's pushed for another year.
