To fund their fifth and final album, TLC is turning to Kickstarter [1]. It's all in an effort to "involve the fans," Chilli told Billboard [2], saying, "Fans have even been sending ideas for what they want a new album cover to look like — they get so creative. They have so much love for us, and we thought, 'We gotta do this.'" Although pledges start at $5, bigger contributions will give fans creative things [3] like a TLC slumber party, a workout with Chilli, and a phone call from the group. Noting that there's definitely a bit of pressure, Chilli said, "It's important to make sure the product is up to par . . . If the tracks aren't jamming, we won't do them." As for their signature look, she's preparing for that, too: "And we gotta make up new TLC dances . . . we gotta figure out crazy new outfits."
