They could've easily used some stock photos of themselves for the album cover. Instead of seeming real lazy they should've got some Kickstarter fans to commission an album cover similar to what Janet did with 20 Y.O.It's hilarious that they didn't considering it's what they did for the 3D cover. And I disagree that the album cover isn't important. In the case of TLC, it is. They (Lisa) put as much focus on their visuals and concepts as they did the music. This album cover is embarrassing.

It also adds weight to people's suspicions that everything was rushed last minute to put out an album after the backlash they were getting for taking people's money and still no album.

no so excited about those two songs, was hoping something like they did with J Cole, but this stuff is boring.

Tionne! "God is my president." LMFAO
And yeah, Chilli has some pretty rigid views on...everything. She voted for Trump, so I'm not shocked by anything she says.
The interviewer was clearly trying to set them up to make a strong, pro-black statement....

Let's just keep it real. TLC died with Left Eye (RIP). All else is vanity. I love hearing new music. Fan Mail should have been it. They've done nothing but tarnish their legacy since. Let it be what it's been.

I thought everybody knew Chilli was basically the Atlanta version of Stacey Dash, except we give her a pass because she's apart of TLC.

I don't think I've heard a word out of Chilli's mouth in the past 15+ years (intentionally).

WAIT. Chilli voted for Trump? Girl. whet? Based on her utter lack of articulation and general lack of interest in politics, I'm thinking she voted for.... no one.

Well that was a pretty terrible interview. Between Chilli's comments on Black Lives Matter and Tionne's indifference to Trump because he doesn't affect her.....🤦🏻♂️
On a side note, good to see Mariah's Jasmine still getting some work...

Wow...this is so embarrassing. The original by a bunch of nobodies sounds better than TLC's version. They really should've retired after the tv movie.

The "All Lives Matter" clip is making the rounds now...not the greatest headlines you want to be making right before an album release.

I can't. All lives matter has to be the most redundant, reductive and ignorant phrase of this decade. She's a celebrity and should be more mindful of her words and the impact they have, such as propogating racist false equivalences.

On the other side of the pond, "Way Back" is at no. 34 on the UK airplay chart this week. Given the relatively low number of spins (203 spins), I'm guessing it's getting played on Radio 2 or another highly rated outlet- its audience number is 22.6 million.

Why the hell wasn't that the album cover? Jesus. TLC fans would know that nothing they do ever makes sense. At this point we are over it.

It just mind boggles me how anyone whether it's TLC or the label, can have those pictures and think the album cover we got is better. Like????
