TLC back after 13 years for new album

Don't go chasing windfalls: TLC will ride the wave of 90s R&B nostalgia

TLC have revealed plans to record a fifth and final album as a duo, 13 years after third member Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes died shortly after the release of the last LP '3D'.

T-Boz and Chilli are hoping to harness the nostalgia for 90s R&B and fund the album through Kickstarter, allowing them to "have complete creative control" over it.

Prizes for generous investors range from a PDF of a handwritten list of their favourite songs to a sleepover with Chilli herself in Atlanta.

"Our final album will stay true to the TLC sound, always confronting the real issues and life experiences that we all must face every single day, everywhere" the pair promise. "We write music that people relate to … timeless music. No matter the trends, we feel like our music is always relevant."

TLC won five Grammy awards and sold over 65 million records worldwide. Their career was cut short however when Lopes was killed in a car crash at the age of 30.
