FanMail

The 'FanMail' album spawned several massive hit singles, most notably 'No Scrubs' and 'Unpretty.' 'No Scrubs' reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and won the Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group. 'Unpretty' also topped the Billboard Hot 100 and addressed issues of body image and self-esteem.

The futuristic, heavily synthesized production was spearheaded by producers Dallas Austin and Babyface, alongside Jermaine Dupri. The album was named 'FanMail' as a tribute to the group's dedicated fanbase, and it heavily incorporated vocal processing and electronic elements that were highly advanced for 1999. The group members, including Tionne 'T-Boz' Watkins and Rozonda 'Chilli' Thomas, also co-wrote several tracks.

TLC released their third studio album, 'FanMail,' on February 23, 1999, under the LaFace Records label. The album was a massive commercial success, debuting at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart. It eventually sold over 6 million copies in the United States alone.

Yes, Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes was heavily involved in the album, though she initially threatened to withdraw from the project over financial disputes with the label. Her signature rapid-fire rap verses are featured prominently on tracks like 'No Scrubs' and 'I'm Good at Being Bad.' She also conceptualized the album's futuristic cyber-theme, which was reflected in the group's music videos.
