IT never began.

LAWD hamercy...yall that avi has been there since 2009 (when i joined). I don't even stan for her (musically) like that anymore. What can I say, I'm too lazy to change it. Nice try.

Fact still remains...when Left Eye died...so did their careers. #justsayin

They never said Rih's name so this is probably just editing. It seems like they were talking about artist who use sex to sell in general

Allah is unbothered.

Their biopic got 4.5 million viewers and was the highest-rated tv film premiere of 2013, and the highest-rated original film premiere in VH1 history.

They're R&B legends tbh

If they did though, they shouldn't have singled out Rihanna. Many girls in the business do they same thing.

Rihanna is usually naked in the name of fashion. She always has clothes on in her music videos.

Yes they said in the video that they were able to keep their clothes on and the good sister Rihanna should learn a thing or two as she forgot the hands part in TLC's photo

Nah the good sis doesn't need to learn anything from anyone. She's good doing her.

True her death played a significant part in the death of their careers.
But them releasing crap music and just leaving the spotlight all together played a bigger part.

One photoshoot doesn't equate a career based off sex and nudity. And those other two examples make no sense.

Their music was at most suggestive. This is about image, and TLC never

had a sexual image.

A pajama set was the most sexual thing they wore in the Red Light Special video.

Now sis that's from the Creep video

I would explain to you why I said nobody's checking for them, but I'd like to remain on topic.

[NLX]

But then again they've already left their mark on the music industry.
No need for me to entertain folks on atrl, better tings to do.

Noticed that too, the vid must've been edited to include Rih.
- Regardless Rihanna remains unbothered.

Yes that's what I was thinking as well.
Of course no one will notice this and will instead try and turn it into a giant mess.

You know what I meant.




and A-Shirts. They never used sex to sell their music, that's for sure. I think Promotheus has the most valid point, about sex not being the primary tool in the 90's.


They aren't hypocrites, though.

The first pic is cute and also the only pic of them you'll find like that.
However there is nothing wrong with the other 2.
Point still stands.
Try again, bby.

You do realize that's from the same photo shoot.
There's also photos of them in firemen uniforms if you want to post.

Are they really talking about longevity and being around for 22 years? No one's been checking for them since 2001.

No matter who they're talking about, whether it's Rihanna or anyone else- what they're saying is hateful and ignorant. Is it such a novel concept to respect a woman no matter how little or how many clothes she wears? They're promoting an antiquated concept where we measure a woman's worth by how modest she is and it's ridiculous and misogynistic in nature. Even IF a female artist decides to use sex to sell why are we vilifying her instead of the patriarchal system (created by men) that demands it of her? Society expects women to be sexual beings while condemning them for it at the same time....but whatever, I shouldn't be ranting about this on ATRL anyway.
