A little heartwarming news for your Thursday: Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes, who died tragically in 2002, will finally get her second solo album released.
The long-awaited 12-track album, Eye-Legacy, will hit stores November 11, according to XXLmag.com. It features previously unreleased vocals from the TLC rapper and collaborations with Chamillionaire, Lil Mama, Bobby Valentino and Missy Elliott, who appears on the first single, “Let’s Just Do It.”
The LP is being released through Mass Appeal Entertainment, in conjunction with the Lopes family. It will also feature songs from Lopes’ 2001 solo debut, “Supernova,” which was never released in the U.S. UrbanNetwork.com reports that a duet with late rapper Tupac Shakur called “Legendary” will also appear on the disc.
“We hope people understand the message in Lisa’s music and appreciate her as not just a member of TLC, but as a solo artist as well,” the Lopes family said in a statement. “This album is Left Eye’s musical gift to her fans and adds to the beauty of her legacy.”
A percentage of the proceeds from the album sales will go to the Lisa Lopes Foundation and her orphanage in Honduras, according to UrbanNetwork. In April 2002, Lopes was vacationing in the Central American country when the SUV she was driving flipped over. Lopes was the only fatality among the eight passengers in the vehicle. She was 30.
Very cool, and I’m glad to hear it.
RIP, Lisa.
aww i used to love her!!
its creepy when posthumous CDs are released. JMHO
Rape of a deceased person is necrophilia, not music.
i liked her alot. TLC was awesome.
It’s so beautiful that we can still hear her messages even after her death. R.I.P. Lisa. Long live TLC
Ok well first I would like to say, R.I.P. Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes. Secondly I think it would be a very good opprotunity to show her talent, especially not beside T.L.C but I don’t agree with it being showcased after her passing. She should at least be able to pass peacefully. We don’t know what kind of controversy this could make, especially with the remaining members of T.L.C. and with that being said, I think it’s a cheap way to make money. But a good way to show you care.
I LOVE YOU LISA!!!!!!!
R.I.P <3
I have no idea what to say, but Lisa Left eye Lopes was a good singer with TLC! R.I.P Lisa!
