Do You Remember: When TLC Revealed to the World That They Were Broke
The legendary girl band broke down doors then let everyone know they’d been ripped off.
TLC helped to redefine the girl band. Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes, and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas joined forces in 1990 under the curation of record producer Ian Burke and quickly went on to become multi-million selling record breakers. TLC sold over 60 million records worldwide, won four Grammys, and made four multi-platinum albums. Their second studio album, CrazySexyCool, went 12-times platinum and earned diamond status with 15 million sales. And they were broke.

How did it happen?
