    I remember the day I bought the cassette probably final days of Feb ‘99 and I listened to it for days nonstop. It was a Turkish cassette release and the booklet was so short lol only 2 pages as I remember. ALL of the songs are beautiful and ALL of them were ahead their time. FanMail is my 2nd best album of ‘99 after Melanie C’s “Northern Star” which released 8-9 months later and has a collaboration with late Left Eye on the song Never Be The Same Again. RIP.

      Thanks for sharing! A 2-page booklet is so sad 🥲 I love Norther Star as well. I lost it when that collaboration was announced. My two favourite groups together! I couldn't believe it and the song lived up to expectations ❤‍🔥

    its crazy that t-boz hated "shout" and lefteye hated "good at being bad" (she wanted a song similar to janet jackson's "what about"), those were some of the best tracks on there. and ghetto enuff sounds like it was recorded for fanmail and they just gave it away kinda like what outkast (andre 3000) did with kelis song "millionaire".

      oh I didn't know that! 😮 I always assumed Left Eye liked I'm Good At Being Bad since it's one of the few songs she did a rap for.

    Wow the edits and that intro were so good. Love TLC and this album. They don't make them like they use too smh. Pop music has gotten so boring after 2016.
    Just subscribed.

    I love this album and your video did it justice, I found a couple of songs I hadn’t heard so thank you! My favourite songs are Fanmail, Silly Ho, I’m Good At Being Bad, Unpretty and Dear Lie - but I honestly love the whole album and era! 💙

    I remember this era well with She'kspere being one of the hottest producers who went on to get singles for the Destiny's Child follow up album. Also the No Scrubs video heavily influenced by Michael and Janet's Scream video. Great in depth look at this album amd singles!
