I know the words to the whole song especially Left Eye's verse by heart. TLC were probably one of the greatest R&B's groups to come out in a long time. They have a catalogue of hits but Waterfalls is today's Song Of The Day so take a listen below:
The petite rapper, Honey Cocaine is back with a batch of new music ready for her fans. She released her second official mixtape hosted by DJ Ill Will called 90s Gold. She explained previously in an interview the concept behind the mixtape which was to basically take everybody back into the good ol' days by sampling well known hits from the 90s such as Dear Mama by 2Pac to No Scrubs by TLC.
10 years ago today, the world was shocked to hear the news of rapper and member of the dominating girl group of the 90s, TLC had died in a car crash. Known to be the rebel , she was also unarguably known to be incredibly talented and always managed to stand out from the crowd with her lively personality. Unfortunately, her time with us was not meant to last forever but her legacy will always be remembered.
I totally forgot to do my weekly segment of 'Throwback Tuesday' on Tuesday, I've shifted it this week to Thursday (today). Thank God, there's two days beginning with T in a week.
Anywhoo, I shall throw all you music lovers out there to the mid 90s also known as the 'Golden Era'.
It was known as the golden era for hip hop and RnB because those two main genres were dominating the charts like never before. You could kind of say it was an open gateway for black musicians since they mostly dominate these genres (e.g. Tupac, Whitney Houston, Toni Braxton, TLC etc. etc.).
Personally, I think this was the best era for music period. It was a time when people could connect with the music. It was a time when lyricists made sense when making music so their audience would understand their story. No gimmicks. No attention seeking whores artists. No auto-tune. Just their talent and an instrumental to go with it.
Check out some music that were dominating the charts:
