We go into the studio with the mindset of simply wanting to make something great.

Kickstarter is perfect for us. It wasn't something we heard about and just got to it. We did our research, met with the people at Kickstarter - they are brilliant, and they're excited to work with us.

I feel naked without earrings. I'll pass out twice. It feels like I'm missing a body part.

Sometimes when you speak what's on your mind - I'm talking everything on your mind, and - people can get a misconception of you.
Rozonda Thomas TLC -
I want someone who takes commitment seriously.

I get nervous as hell when it's time for the songs to come out.

To have a body of work is a blessing - when you have songs that have been around generation after generation that they call timeless music, you can work that for a long time.

One thing, parents: you need to realize is you've got to stop letting artists raise your kids. You're the parent. Why don't you monitor what your child wears? Ariana Grande didn't sign on to be a role model.

From day one, we always admired male R&B groups. They would go onstage with no shirt on and baggy jeans, and girls would scream.
Rozonda Thomas TLC -
We're just not the type of artists that take anything for granted and just feel like, 'Oh yeah, you just know something great is going to happen.' We're not like that.

The teenage years are my least favorite, though my son is phenomenal. He does not get in trouble, and he's not a bad kid. But the fact that they think they know so much.

In life, when you lose anyone, there's always an adjustment period - emotionally, mentally and physically.

Usher did the ultimate no-no to me. I will never be with him again, and that is that.

I've traveled the world in one of the best groups ever. I'm 42.

I remember getting flowers and champagne for being one of the first black artists on MTV. That was a big deal.

I've worked in the studio with a lot of young girls, and they'll go, 'Oh, the label is telling me to take off my clothes, and I don't feel comfortable.' Well if you don't feel comfortable, don't do it.

The doctors told me I could never have kids, but God blessed me anyway.

At the end of the day we feel the same; we all hurt.

What is not cool is if we have a problem with an artist or if an artist has a problem with us, come to us directly. Talk to us. Don't start a Twitter war and all that kind of stuff. That's silly.
Rozonda Thomas TLC -
TLC always looked up to male bands. We saw guy groups could just go out and get the fans screaming by just standing there - fully clothed and with nothing but their music... We saw them as the competition more than the girl groups, with whom we wanted to stay unified.

I never thought black people would say I wasn't black enough. It didn't turn me into a bully - it just put me on the defensive. I had to watch my back. It made me stronger because I learned how to deal with ignorance.

A role model can teach you to love and respect yourself.

We can be in the studio with the hottest producer, but we might not be able to create any magic! It's not about the hottest. It's about who we feel we have that connection with, and that's who we're going to be working with.

I'm in charge of raising a young woman one day, to be a mother and hopefully a wife.
