They definitely could have but Tionne and Chilli never actively pursued solo careers. Chilli loves TLC and that's her life! She put her solo albums on hold two times (2000, 2008) to do TLC projects. Tionne started a solo album in 2003 but she never finished. She said her desire has always been working behind the scenes. Lisa was the only one who really put effort into a solo career.
@John Edwards Are you talking about the Supernova album? I had heard it. I even found it at a flea market. I heard it was only released in Asian markets. So I could only guess that the copy I bought was imported. It wasn't a bad album, though. Left Eye WAS, however, recording an album for Death Row under the name N.I.N.A. at the time of her death. I wonder how that would have been.
This song should have been used as a promotion to educate young people on masturbation: 1.) decreases std’s 2.) decreases teenage pregnancies 3.) decreases bursts of anger from sexual frustration that teens go through (which is why they act so crazy all the time).
T-Boz looked so damn gorgeous in that all-black fishnet ensemble. A shame this joint is so underrated. Never really appreciated it until recently. The more mature you get, the more your old school faves get hotter with age.
Respect to T-Boz and TLC as a whole for their contribution to the culture and for their courage in challenging/crossing societal boundaries. It was a risk that could've easily derailed the average career.
She was the better and stronger dancer than Lisa and Rozanda. People only hyped Lisa because she passed on. I’m not discrediting Lisa at all but TBoz is the voice of TLC. She also wrote some of those songs and co-wrote them as well. Lisa suggested aesthetics, wrote her rap lyrics, would try to secure certain hit songs, names their albums, and would suggest their clothing or set styles.
I think T Boz was the best outta all 3 of them. I know Lefteye is kind of the fan favorite, but I get it. It's easy to see why people would gravitate towards her. And then if not Lefteye, Chilli seems to be like the next one who gets a lot of fan love and recognition. But me personally, I always prefer T Boz. That's nothing against the other 2 because they are both great too. But T Boz is just cool as hell. The way she sings sounds soooo dope. Her singing voice is just this really low and has this sort of hypnotizing vibe to it.
T Boz was THAT girl back when TLC was hitting, Left Eye got on a lot of folks nerves with her antics back then, and Chilli was perceived as boring--younger fans now miss Left Eye and Chilli has been on TV more so they gravitate to them now. But T Boz was always Boss. TLC is the best girl group ever anyway so it's all good.
Boz was stunning in this video!!! I wish TLC did what DC did after _Survivor_ was released. Michelle, Kelly and Beyoncé releasing solo albums in 2002/03. And DC's solo albums during that time period catered to different markets, I just wish TLC was the first to do it. Boz could've dropped a G-Funk/P-Funk styled album, then Chilli with a quiet storm/R&B album and lastly Left Eye with the hip hop infused album. And it could've worked out had it not been so many hands in the money pot. RIP Left Eye. ⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘
Well Left Eye did propose/challenge that they do a 3 CD album showcasing their solo talents. And T-Boz and Chilli didn't get her vision as they didn't with so many other things. They could've made history.
I can’t unhear the “All That” intro song in my head. I know TLC sings the intro but I didint noticed to right now how similar the sound and chorus sounds. #90skid
I know what you mean, it still sounds very TLC. Also I've wondered if Chilli helped in the background vocals same way Toni Braxton sisters helped her and her solo album🤔
Tionne was never marketable as a solo artist...Left Eye was. If Tionne went solo it wouldnt sell...Left Eye was more an ovrerall dynamic entertainer / performer. Tionne just didnt have the grit that Left Eye or Rozanda had.
they were on a hiatus due to the bankruptcy after crazysexycool so they all were free to do whatever like lefteye getting with lilkim to do not tonight remix
She had/has a respective solo career. Between her 2000 hit song from the Rugrats movie to this to her 1999 book thoughts her 2017 book sick life and movie video appearances and acting gigs shes done well... She had a soap aopera gig just last year that pays buku $ so she's doing alright solo. Shes now selling cbd independenly so shes hanging in there solo...
Is it me or can I hear Chili's vocals a little bit in the background? Well, this song WAS meant for TLC originally, not just T-Boz. But it would've topped the charts either way. They all got formidable talent when they're together or separated #ItGoesBothWays #LoveThem
Eli C wtf u about??? This song was a hit for TBoz as a solo artist. a Top 20 hit at that??? so why wouldn't it be a hit for TLC with Tboz singing the whole lead like she did for Creep????
This single makes me wonder what her solo run would ve been like she is talented with the group and on her own she can sing and dance back then and still is a killer combo
The title of the song was taboo and kept under wraps like homosexuality. Perhaps it'll be a little bit acceptable today compared to back in the days. Aside from all of that, the production work on the track was 🔥
This video inspired Ciara’s “Like a Boy” and it also inspired another overrated female singer who I won’t name but she used it for her “Upgrade U” video
Chilli is my favorite member of TLC, but overall I loved all three of them - (T-Boz, Left Eye, and Chilli)! They are all among my many celebrity crushes!
I was 13 jamming to this song back in 1996. I brought the single as well. I knew what she was singing about. I don't think it really registered though, lol.
Adding this to my faves...sure would like to see some more from Ms. TBoz and Chilli...but I understand the respect for LeftEye...Lord I miss them... #TLCFanForever
Like aged vintage wine..♈ T Boz is ever more beautiful than during her debut and subsequent earlier TLC years with bandmates ♓ Chili & ♊ Left Eye... Being both a mother and entrepreneur has done her well♈ T Boz looks have improved with age .she looks even better than her 20 something years in my honest opinion...🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰4️⃣♈ T Boz ❤️💯🙏
Man I had a crush of T Boyz ever since, I was in love with rugged girls those days. Definitely would have approached her if I lived in the US those days. Plus she is a super artist.
In TLC she was always the cool one. On her solo projects she was crazy sexy and cool. She shined through in this piece. She was gorgeous than ever in this
This song is STILL 🔥🔥🔥 Female empowerment is a beautiful thing. Also, I was young as HELL when the song came out. I bought the CD in McCain Mall when I was hanging out with my friends. Got home and played this damn song ALL NIGHT. Parents came in my room like "did you have fun??? What'd you get?" I hit play , and "I AIN'T AFRAID TO TOUCH MYSELF, I DON'T NEED NOBODY ELSE" parents never brought their asses back into my room again asking me what I bought while I was out.😂
I love this song so much. T-Boz did it on this one ❤🔥🔥. It’s such a jam and always will be. Happy 53rd Birthday to Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins! I love you always and forever. ❤❤🥳🎉🎊4/26/2023
l hope this is tboz real channel so she hear me, l love tlc but even tho, l love them, tboz was my extreme yearn or strong admiration since 94 creep, l think it's the voice and the blond bob hairstyle
TLC... crazy=left eye, sexy=chilli cool=Tboz.. all the way.. I was 7 or 8 listening to crazy sexy cool and I always thought she was the coolest girl in the world
I always thought Tboz was so pretty.
Kayc106 u and miliion others like myself
Kayc106 She was and still is.
I am not an addict I agree she is still pretty but she does have sickle cell so that why she look different
She still is
Kay C I used to have a thing for a T-Boz back in the day.
I remember when this video was constantly played on MTV and BET back in 1996.
Her voice is truly unique no other sounds like hers.
True. She had her own singing style, the way she sings _baby_ at 1:47 is so hers.
Facts
Yes she does!
very nasally
Very soulful voice
I truly believe that T-Boz, Chili and Left Eye could have all had sucessful solo albums
They definitely could have but Tionne and Chilli never actively pursued solo careers. Chilli loves TLC and that's her life! She put her solo albums on hold two times (2000, 2008) to do TLC projects. Tionne started a solo album in 2003 but she never finished. She said her desire has always been working behind the scenes. Lisa was the only one who really put effort into a solo career.
They were stronger together

I'm not so sure about chili
@John Edwards Yeah I have the Supernova album too!
Tboz is so gorgeous 😍 she is one of my 90s crushes. I love this song and video.
Who didn’t crush on her she’s so beautiful.
❤ Esta mulher é linda demais !
This song should have been used as a promotion to educate young people on masturbation:
1.) decreases std’s
2.) decreases teenage pregnancies
3.) decreases bursts of anger from sexual frustration that teens go through (which is why they act so crazy all the time).
The 😂
Decrease abortion too.
T-Boz looks like a beautiful angel that came from heaven at 2:22
T-Boz looked so damn gorgeous in that all-black fishnet ensemble. A shame this joint is so underrated. Never really appreciated it until recently. The more mature you get, the more your old school faves get hotter with age.
Ain't that the truth.
@Robert Scott thought i was the only one, i feel swindled
i agree
Her voice is like liquor. Amazing one of the best voices of our generation
I always loved her raspy singing voice
I love her unique singing voice
Respect to T-Boz and TLC as a whole for their contribution to the culture and for their courage in challenging/crossing societal boundaries. It was a risk that could've easily derailed the average career.
The things that TLC has accomplished is absolutely amazing. They should be considered a national treasure.
T Boz was so talented. always felt she never got enough credit in TLC
She was the better and stronger dancer than Lisa and Rozanda. People only hyped Lisa because she passed on. I’m not discrediting Lisa at all but TBoz is the voice of TLC. She also wrote some of those songs and co-wrote them as well. Lisa suggested aesthetics, wrote her rap lyrics, would try to secure certain hit songs, names their albums, and would suggest their clothing or set styles.
Still goes, this song is ahead of its time they weren't ready for it back then.
Tboz raspy voice is😍😍😍😍😍
She was so beautiful with a very different voice and i always loved her outfits
Criminally underrated.
Absolutely. This was some 🔥🔥🔥
💯
Ong🔥🔥
😂😂😂 l had no business listening to this when l was lil....didnt know what she was talkin bout. All l knew was its T-Boz from TLC so IM WATCHIN IT

I think they all were good each could have had a great solo career especially t boz & left eye.
PotawatomiThunderNew .........Yes I totally get what you are saying PotawatomiThunderNew! She fine in this video too hehe
PotawatomiThunderNew yeah TBoz has that Raspy voice luv that shit kinda edgy

PotawatomiThunderNew T Boz is my spirit animal!! She's such a badass!
Imagine if Left Eye spit of one her 🔥 verses with her cute squeaky voice 😍
Icing on the cake
I was so thinking this 😍🔥
Watch somebody do it with AI. AI Spin with LeftEye!!? shoot fire!🙌🏾🔥
Massively underrated
T-Boz had SWAG for days.

@Lukeanthony82 you can definitely hear Chili in them vocals
Wish she made more solo songs 😕
Her song "Someday" sounds way better than this.... One of her best songs
Absolutely
Yup. But she was loyal to TLC.
Tionne was never marketable as a solo artist...Left Eye was. If Tionne went solo it wouldnt sell...Left Eye was more an ovrerall dynamic entertainer / performer. Tionne just didnt have the grit that Left Eye or Rozanda had.
Left eye needed the solo career
This was a bold statement in the 90s.
Whoever produced this song, I find it amazing. A person has a right to do whatever makes them feel good. Rather than this relationship bullcrap.
Dallas Austin produced this jam
Still watching in 2019.
T-Boz was always my favorite TLC member, I wish she did a solo album , at least she's the main voice behind TLC.
I liked they way she was the Guy and the girl !! I see you 👀 boz! ❤️
I just caught that after all these years. Lol That part went hard. I really couldn't tell until now.
Hey T- Boz, Brasil 🇧🇷
T did her thing with this one. The original version is way better than that remix. She kilt this.
T Boz is gorgeous.
She rocked this whole track! You know she enjoyed this!!! 💙🌹
It's too bad her solo career never took off. She had a lot of potential without TLC.
She never really put much effort into really launching her solo career. They've always dropped their solo endeavors for TLC.
they were on a hiatus due to the bankruptcy after crazysexycool so they all were free to do whatever like lefteye getting with lilkim to do not tonight remix
@Sandy Louise She has Lupus, too? I thought it was just sickle cell.
She had/has a respective solo career. Between her 2000 hit song from the Rugrats movie to this to her 1999 book thoughts her 2017 book sick life and movie video appearances and acting gigs shes done well...

It wouldn't have work
The green outfit in this video was so cute on her 🥰🥰
yesss i love it
Why isn’t this on Spotify- I used to play this to death. Still got the single cd!

I think you're hearing the background singers vocals, Debra Killings, she sang background for a ton of TLCs songs
Didn't she sing backup for Monica's "Like this and Like that"?
Yup^
Eli C It is a hit. Check the charts. And you don't have to like it. No one asked you.
Eli C wtf u about??? This song was a hit for TBoz as a solo artist. a Top 20 hit at that??? so why wouldn't it be a hit for TLC with Tboz singing the whole lead like she did for Creep????
T-Boz the most stunning out the whole group
She is.
I always thought TLC had the best dance group moves in their clips hands down. Sexy without even trying to.
This my first time seeing this and it's 2020 wow she sounds good hope she makes another song
Agreed!!
True
Y'all must be some youngsters
Really? Where you been
@@danzieltaylor6394 I was thinking the same thing
I admire her voice her voice is so amazing.
I know but she doesn't talk the way she sings.
@@rubyhouston5513 You right.
This single makes me wonder what her solo run would ve been like she is talented with the group and on her own she can sing and dance back then and still is a killer combo
I remember Hot 97 playing this alot back then...back when the only curses they edited out were the 4 letter ones
How can you not love t-boz 🤷😘😘😘😘Touch yourself it's more healthy then giving ya treasures away it 2020 babyyyyyy🤷🤷🤷🤷
Who else had NO idea T-Boz had her own music???? 🙋🏾♂️🙋🏾♂️

I remember this song back then.
She had a couple of solo songs 🤦🏾♂️
@@bertyo3409 What was the other solo song?
@@cherryjig7983 wanna take me back is one of them
This is the original version⏰🧠
T-Boz is the dopest female of 90's period!
How this song didn’t blow up when TLC was everywhere at this point is a crime.
I always thought the same thing. I only remember seeing it on video, but not hearing on the radio
Subject matter 😅
I wonder y it didn’t Atlease get a million by 8 years
The title of the song was taboo and kept under wraps like homosexuality. Perhaps it'll be a little bit acceptable today compared to back in the days.
Aside from all of that, the production work on the track was 🔥
TBoz was beautiful ♥️
Where ciara got her ideas from like a boy. Tboz a boss
Minelva LaPlante Cleary!! T boz inspired her lol😎
I can see why, same concept but different approaches. #polaropposites
This video inspired Ciara’s “Like a Boy” and it also inspired another overrated female singer who I won’t name but she used it for her “Upgrade U” video
Yup
Happy 52nd Birthday to Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins!! I love you! ❤️❤️🥳🎉
T boz killed this track no music like the 90's
I hope there is a way she could focus and become a long lasting successful solo artist.

I always wonder why she never took a chance on a solo career, I think she would had stood out perfectly!
She wanted to focus on her group only unlike DC
Really fool 😒.....you know she can't sang
But I now see how all three of them made a unit that can't be beat
T boz was the prettiest one. The song was cool and banging.😍❤️💜

I hit play , and
