Best TLC album? It's hard...the toss between CrazySexyCool and Fanmail...
I'm a go with Fanmail. Because I spun that shit twice daily in high school and freshman year of college. I'm not a huge fan of the singles (Unpretty = one of my least fave TLC songs); the "No Scrubs" w/o Left Eye's rap sucks; "Dear Lie" is catchy but Tionne's vocals are weak...it's the amazing album cuts that push it to the top. "My Life" "Shout" "Silly Ho" "I'm Good at Being Bad" "Lovesick" "Automatic" "Don't Pull Out on Me Yet" Your votes? PS "Creep" is my all time fave TLC song tied with "What about your Friends" I'll leave it alone babe...just be me | |

CrazySexyCool. Their so grown up from the first album. U also got"Creep","Red light special". Come on now. I'm was just listenin' 2 it this morning. Then they were CrazySexyCool women. I think thats there best album. The best girl group and my favorite girl goup. Diggin on U. [Edited 8/11/05 0:07am] Some people think I'm kinda cute

 Agreed. This was their best album to date. It was definitely for the grown and sexy.  | |

CrazySexyCool was a leap for TLC, considering how much they had grown since Oooooohhh...On the TLC Tip. It's easily their best album as a unit. I don't think it ever gets old. Ooh, little darlin' if you're

CrazySexyCool, and then their debut. The other 2 were pretty weaksauce. "But what of black women? . . . I most sincerely doubt if any other race of women could have brought its fineness up through so devilish a fire." -- W.E.B. Du Bois -- | |

"CrazySexyCool".. it has some arguable duds, but is overall cohesive, masterfully produced, and there's simply no beating classics like "Creep", "Diggin' On You", "Red Light Special", and, of course, "Waterfalls" (hellishly overplayed as it is), not to mention stellar non-singles like "Switch" and "Sumthin' Wicked This Way Comes". My only qualms are the aforementioned presence of duds (sorry.. "Kick Your Game"? "Let's Do It Again"? "Case Of The Fake People", an inferior remake of "What About Your Friends"?) and NOT ENOUGH LEFT EYE.
Their debut is an extremely close second: The themes are probably their best, the production is their funkiest, the girls all get equal time behind the microphone be it for rapping or singing (T-Boz and Chilli even contribute raps of their own), and they display, in my opinion, their finest chemistry altogether and the greatest examples of their personalities. Still.. "CrazySexyCool" for sheer cohesiveness and all-around strength of the material. | |
