“If I don’t love myself, I won’t survive.”

“Tis my take on it, instead of telling a woman if her man’s cheating on her, to cheat back, why don’t we just tell her to leave?”

“I have always been a very spiritual woman, I think we all have different heavens. Mine will probably be me re-living my life over.”

“There’s a thin line between genius and insanity — and I always get labelled as being the crazy one.”

“I felt like an outcast. It used to be the three of us being very silly, and then it was just the two of them being silly. I didn’t feel silly anymore.”

“By tapping into the sounds of each decade and creating unique ways to tell these stories, we’re confirming our commitment to being the destination for adults who are passionate about music.”

“It was a little weird being in the presence of Tupac, and we’re very similar. Similar to the point where we almost clashed, we’re both Geminis and it was almost like four people being in the room.”

“If we didn’t go through everything we did, the struggles and the hard work, we wouldn’t be as close as we are, we wouldn’t be as strong as we are, we wouldn’t be as wise as we are.”

“This is how a group can sell 10 million records and be broke, and everybody get ready to do your math. There are 100 points on an album, TLC has 7, every point is worth 8 cents. Alright, 7 times 8 is 56 cents, that means every time an album gets sold, TLC gets 56 cents. Sell 10 million records, $5.6 million, sounds like a lot of money. That’s the addition, now here comes the subtraction.”
