TLC Talks The Making Of Their Debut Album, 'Ooooooohhh...On the TLC Tip' 30 Years Ago
TLC went into the studio to make their game-changing debut, Ooooooohhh…On the TLC Tip, which came out 30 years ago on February 25, 1992. The new jill swing classic — a masterful melange of funk (from the T, Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins), hip-hop (from the L, the late Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes) and R&B (from the C, Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas) — was one of those albums that came straight outta nowhere, like nothing you’d ever heard (or seen) before.But these three ladies with attitude weren’t even sure what they should sound like yet when they went into the studio.
