san diego pride


time. It was a personal poem of mine because that’s how my ex-boyfriend made me feel, he made me feel like I wasn’t ‘pretty.’ I just started thinking about society and people who are treated like they’re not good enough to fit in. Ironically an episode ofThe Ricki Lake Show was on and women were being verbally abused by their husbands. I was like, ‘You know what, I just stated the word, unpretty,’ that’s how he made me feel. We started producing the track, it just came together and it went number one. I was like ‘Oh my god,’ I didn’t know how my personal feelings would affect everybody, or that a lot of people felt the way that I did.” TLC has a brilliant history of addressing


social issues. That’s the spark that set the group apart in the music scene; from “Haters” from their 2017 self-titled release or “Waterfalls” off CrazySexyCool and “Unpretty.” Even though they could still lay down a groove where “this guy’s a dick.” I brought up the song “Silly Ho” and how the slam of this song never changes with the buzzer going off after each lyric. T-Boz bursts out laughing and said, “No… Oh, you’re so funny because my kids really don’t know what that song stands for. But when Chase was


little and now I have a toddler who is two and a half, that’s their favorite song. So, I think it’s the buzzer and the ‘woo whoo,’ that catches them. The song was a solo song of mine we ended up putting it on TLC. It’s so funny because ‘ho’ was my favorite word at the time and I just don’t like ‘ho’s’ I don’t. Back then, I was really rowdy and would get into it with a lot of chicks. I was like, let’s write about these silly ho’s that make it hard for us respectful women.” (Laughter) Regarding how T-Boz is enjoying their summer performance dates; “I’ve been going non-stop and no rest. In between shows, I’ve been shooting onDays of Our Lives…I have a recurring role on there. That’s crazy, right? Yet, it’s awesome.” What is TLC’s performance going to be like at


the San Diego Pride Festival? “Of course, you’ll hear all of our hits and some of the new stuff— it’s high-energy—a lot of fun and there’s never a dull moment during our show, I think.”
