-Watched this when it premiered and I surprisingly enjoyed it a lot more then I thought I would. I would go on to say I'd put this group biopic up there with The Jacksons and The Temptations as one of the G.O.A.T.S.

-Lil' Mama killed her part as Left Eye. She pretty much embodied her :ohhh:

-I remember seeing that Behind The Music of how Pepples was fukking them over with them contracts but :damn: $25 a week? A WEEK!? :damn: were they living off the dollar menu at McDonalds or what?


-Getting Cole to play LA Reid :russ:

-Dallas Austin was smashing Chilli like that? :ohhh: I don't remember Behind The Music talking about that. Or was I not paying attention? :dwillhuh:


-Keke Palmer as Chilli was PERFECT. When I saw her in Akeelah and The Bee years back I KNEW she was gonna grow up to be :noah:

-Was I the only one who found it weird that Usher wasn't mentioned in Chilli's life?...:yeshrug:

-They REALLY run up on Clive Davis in his office like :pacspit:? :gladbron:

I hope they release this on DVD I might just cop :obama:

Same thing, I remember watching the Creep video with my Dad and he was like "Whose the cutest" and I picked Left Eye. I thought her and Janet Jackson were the BADDEST women on the planet. My dad was trying to put me on Game telling me Chili was the baddest but I didn't see it until the "Red Light" video dropped and Chili had me like:drool:

:wow: You was raised right...
The other memories this brought back was the early music scene in the A and Atlanta's rise in the 90's as it became the black Mecca (challenging chocolate city at the time and before it became full of foolywang rappers, strippers, and the whole Hollywood mentality). I'd love to see a film cover LaFace/Arista, So So Def, Organized Noize/Dungeon Fam, and the artists involved, make that shyt a week long special, I think it's pertinent to modern urban music history and is a story that needs to be told just the same as people have done with motown, death row, and bad boy...that 90's ATL scene was too tough

Why you ain't say Raheem The Dream? :aicmon:

they were very selective with the storyline, I was hoping a suge knight character would appear with left eye... or some thugged out west coast cat would slap t boz up at the studio in front of evan ross.... and he would run up like what you doing bruh! she got sickle cell... mack 10 would look at that nikka like :ehh: :birdman:...all seriousness tho them tlc joints like digging on you took me back to being on the house phone talking shyt to that stuck up ass redbone everybody wanted but you managed to finesse them digits..:banderas:

I don't believe in biopics where the actor/actress looks NOTHING like the person they're playing.

Credibility out the window before the movie even starts.
Dumbest shyt I ever heard. Denzel Washington looks nothing like Malcolm X, but gave that role justice. Will Smith did Ali justice,it's goes on
