What Really Happened To TLC

What Really Happened To TLC In 1995, TLC were the biggest selling female group on the planet. Their album had just gone diamond. They had two Grammy Awards. And they were completely, legally, formally broke. Not struggling. Not in debt. Bankrupt. While their album was still selling millions of copies. That is not bad luck. That is a system working exactly as it was designed. Here is what this video is going to show you. How three teenagers from Atlanta signed contracts they were never meant to fully understand. How the woman who discovered them, managed them, and called herself their protector was simultaneously collecting money from the same system that was consuming them. And how TLC's bankruptcy — filed at the exact moment of their greatest commercial success — was not a failure. It was proof that the machine was working perfectly. For everyone except TLC.
