Dallas Austin on Left Eye Joining Death Row, Suge Knight Becoming Her Manager (Part 9) 

"Christina Aguilera & Destiny's Child were opening up for TLC", that should tell you where TLC was at their apex as a group.

The older Lisa got, the more woke she became. She went from the most goofy & happy in the group, to the most serious & no nonsense. She reached a mentality level that the other 2 where nowhere near. Its a Gemini thing. Also, you can tell she couldn’t stand Chilli 😂

I wonder why JD is never mentioned in any TLC conversation. I hear he was an intricate part in their beginnings, especially with the sound of T-Boz's voice which actually makes sense because that's how kandi sounded in Xscape's early records.

I don't think TLC would work without anyone of them. All of them are so unique

he lowkey messy as hell lol

This is the reason this man got interviewed, ' got a suge knight story' yep, see you tomorrow,

Dallas Austin was messy like a female writing that note to Left Eye. Then wasn't man enough to say he wrote the note his self but put T Boz & Chilli name on it.

Respect Left Eye not writing on a topic she didn’t rock with. Too real.

Sounds like Left Eye was vibrating on a higher level. They still haven't caught up.

Dallas should have talked about why he rejected her songs for Crazysexycool and Fanmail. It seems like a personal attack on her. I wouldn’t be shock to hear that Dallas tried to make a move on her and she rejected him lol. He favored T-boz and Chilli. Left Eye mentioned that in an article and how she’s was at a disadvantage due to favoritism.

He clearly manipulated a Situation by writing a letter and singing tboz and chili name and leaving it in her room...s**t caused some real misunderstandings

1:24 that was a B!TCH move with the letter

So he admitted to starting ish between her and the girls 😒

Dallas and Lisa didn’t like eachother... that explains a lot.

Please don't confuse a vegan diet with losing your mind...

Just remember, Dallas was dating Chili. He is biased on anything that concerns Left Eye. The two were not getting along at the time. Left Eye was also being mistreated but I doubt he will mention that. Chilli was known for getting a bit too close to music producers and execs. I wonder if he will speak on Chilli and LA Reid's relationship? Pebbles wasn't acting crazy for nothing.

Dallas didn’t like Lisa in her last few days... she didn’t care for him either, so that explains is targeted comments about her being “weird” and her losing her mind. Their beef started around 97’ when Dallas was demanding 4 million and some change for the group’s 3rd project, and Lisa was ready to drop him and get new producers . They settled with Dallas in 98’ and started recording “Fanmail” in which he demanded he be executive producer of or he wouldn’t touch it at all . Lisa had a problem with that because it was essentially her concept, but Tboz and Chilli didn’t want it any other way . and she didn’t think the songs he was producing and writing was worth the money they were paying him. which was proven to be true, because they only spawned 3 singles from that album, 2 in which Dallas didn’t even produce or write &&& L.A Reid granted them no more singles because he didn’t see anymore potential singles from the album... so Lisa was pretty much correct about the ENTIRE fanmail era and album. It also didn’t help that when Lisa signed to death row, Suge Knight went on the Wendy Williams Radio show and dissed chilli, and started a rumor that Dallas was Bi-Sexual (which is questionable lol)

I respect Left Eye's decision not to do a rap for Creep.

And then she died...👀...😒...😂😂😂😂😂 Vladimir so damn awkward ✌🏾

He talks like Dennis Rodman

From Peebles to Suge Knight. Dayyuumm

RIP Lefteye miss her so much!!!

They robbed her for millions that would change a person when you work so hard

Lisa talked about how he interfered with her and the group. And how he overstepped as their producer just cause he was dating Chilli. In I Believe In Me that last verse... "The only trouble we ever had, was you being involved. You getting involved where you don't belong."

He admitted to forging a "We dont want you "letter from other tlc members. #SMH

Lisa actually did end up writing a rap for Creep, and it was put on the remix. The lyrics however were very anti cheating and that's the version I love to listen to.

Dallas you tripping being Vegan don't make you crazy foh, She didn't want to rap about creeping so she's weird come on Dallas you're a Legend but you tripping

Left eye solo was dope af...she was a powerful sister, you just didn't understand her

Left Eye Rap On All That Is A Classic Verse. 🔥

I don’t like him he’s too messy🤨😒

I don’t care what anyone says, but LEFT EYE 👁 was the soul of that group! The true star 🌟 of that trio, she was the one you always wanted to see!! RIP Lisa Lopes you are missed and your creativity will always be treasured!!!

Lisa couldn’t stand Dallas Austin. He also hated her. She infamously blasted him for charging 5 million dollars to record Fanmail. It’s disappoint to hear him talk about her like this. The NINA persona came out with well after Fanmail. Supernova came out overseas in 2001 and she still wasn’t with Suge yet. A lot of us still remember these days.

Left Eye just woke up to the industry and the politics that goes on I can remember how much ruckus she caused when she did the math for an artist album budget on MTV...when ppl saw they make barely 50k an album, folks were shocked. I've heard from a good source of mines in ATL that she went to Sebi due to an ailment she had to get help& cured. Dallas I think became apart of the tactics the industry does to groups.

Left eye became woke that’s what happen

0:24 imagine that. In THIS universe we're in, a group featuring Beyonce, and a solo act of Christina Aguilera, were the OPENING acts, not the headliners, of a tour. Don't tell me TLC wasn't the SHIT at that time

At 2:02 he catches himself, he was going to say LA Reid was scared to death of Suge.

I don’t think she was weird...Lisa was in a group and it became her identity. Like many others, she couldn’t express herself the way she needed to. TLC as a group outshined who she was and represented and her interests and aspirations. Looking back, i don’t think she truly wanted to leave but she wanted to do things outside of the group. She wanted something for Left Eye as an artist, not Left Eye within TLC.

"And then she ended up dying!"....who says that?

I thought I was the only one who thought it was weird when left eye signed a deal with Suge knight 😒😒😒😒😒🤔🤔🤔🤔

Suge had a lot of influence on Left Eye. He was already banging her and also putting seeds in her head to leave TLC. He did the same thing with Dre leaving Easy and NWA.

it was only a matter of time before he got hit with a deathrow question..

Look like a clean cut Shock G

I Understand What He's Trying To Say. Your Body And Mind Has An Adjustment Process When Going Vegan. Sometimes Folks Have See The Whole Of What Someone's Trying To Say And Not Just The Tunnel Version

Vegan life was opneing her 3rd eye to all the BS

seems like whomever signs up with death row REALLY is on death row waiting on an execution date and just don't know it... that record company is a curse..

I really respect Tboz and Chilli for not replacing her because most group would have replace her fast even through death. But why split 3 ways, when you can split 2. But that self titled TLC wasn't there best but it was proof they can do it without lisa. Imagine if they work with top producers and they were on a major label, that album would have been huge. The TLC sound is with the 3, but you mostly get the sound from the vocals of tboz and chili. Left eye was my favorite but this is the new TLC. Real fans would understand! #tlcarmy

Why did they even interview this guy? He does not like anyone! He actually said she was not getting what she needed because of a vegan diet? Dude people were on a vegan diet before Left eye. He had the nerve to say put someone else in to replace Left eye! God knows what he is doing. Just imagine when Dallas passes what words people will say against him. Horrible Man...

Left Eye was ahead of her time.

It's not called crazy it is called having morals ..Left eye didnt wont to write a verse on a song like "Creep" because she was not living that life.. she was honest should could not relate .. thats honorable..

VLAD CAN WE PLEASE GET A DEVANTE SWING INTERVIEW? Just don't ask him about the home invasion. We talking about the Prince of the 90's. A master of R&B. Prince, Diddy, Suge, Pac, Biggie. The dude produced an entire unreleased album for Michael Jackson - I mean god damn. Da Basement with Timbaland, Missy, Static Major, Ginuwine, Aaliyah, Sista, Usher, Mariah Carey. Dating & getting a deal with Madonna. Come on my guy. Tupac wanted to a do entire collab album with DeVante. Pac got the term BOSS PLAYA from DeVante- The Original Boss Playa. Why hasn't happened & what will it take?

I feel left eye career would’ve been exactly like lauryn hills she would’ve have left the group and jus be low key

Wait. Left Eye being on death row and acting like a complete idiot seem to be normal to him. But when she turn vegan and started getting some spirituality, and didn't want to write, or be a part of a song where she was singing about, or rapping about cheating, then something was wrong with her spirit. Does that make any sense to anybody else?

Pretty ignorant statement about "going vegan"... and pretty vacuous statements about Left-Eye

Man, Destiny’s Child was opening for TLC! Soooo long ago😆

Rest easy Left Eye,803

I hope Vlad asks Dallas about Monica, he wrote and produced for her as well 👌

Left Eye sounds like she was bipolar

If she was going back and forth to see Dr.Sebi and becoming a vegan then it stands to reason that she was conflicted BC you can't physically and spiritually cleanse and then do some of the things that the industry expect you to and be alright spiritually. That's why she couldn't or wouldn't come up with a rap about cheating. I guess he couldn't understand that.

You ever see the video she did when she died. It was on vh1. It was wierd and very difficult to watch. She predicted her death and she filmed all the way up to the accident. Smh.

It wasn’t anything wrong with Left Eye in my opinion. She just became open minded & being open minded myself people are not on what your own, they don’t see the vision that you see & that’s why she wanted to venture out. She said it best in one of her songs “If I woulda told them we was on different planes they woulda thought our flights aint the same” some people still just don’t get it, I believe she gave it her all until she just got tired of it. Rest In Peace soul sister we miss & love you.

I’m getting Dennis Rodman vibes

He’s a little disgusting to me for him to say she was kind of weird no, your mad because she didn’t want to listen to your rules and do what you wanted her to do , she was her own person and her family and friends and supporters seen it for them selves , don’t sit on a interview years later and make up lies you are trifling!

Dang dude....he like then she died😑....could have said passed away😕....sounds so much better....ijs🙏

🚨If any TLC/Left Eye fans haven't heard the CrazySexyCool Unreleased solo track by Left Eye called "My Secret Enemy" produced by Dallas Austin check it out on RU-vid 🔥🔥🔥

No disrespect towards Dallas he is a musical genius a legend but real men don't instigate shit especially between females, someone could get hurt and you know all three of them are hood lol.

Dallas Austin looks like a mix between Shock G from digital underground & gospel singer Dietrick Haddon.

left eye was getting here soul back someone didn't want that to happen

Interesting. I always wondered why Left Eye didn't rap on the song Creep.

Nina

He need to stay out of Women Business. That is fraud to write a note and sign some one else's name.

All groups have that ONE artist. Left Eye was the glue for TLC. However, Da Brat could have filled Left Eye's spot. Not a replacement but filled the spot.

Left Eye was a character for sure but she was the best part. TLC definitely ain’t the same. Their last album was corny to me.

He should tell ALLLLLLL his business , like why him and his son don’t speak !

He been around the industry for sometime now! He's one of those quiet hitmakers like B.Cox! They both have produced some major hits!

RIH Left Eye

Damn I love lefteye

RIP Lisa

People are always fast to speak on others behavior but never check themselves smh. He should’ve been going to Dr. Sebi for his cocaine addiction and maybe he’d understand what she was trying to achieve spiritually 🤔 I really believe he was trying to overcharge them for records and starting beef between them, what man does that? I grew up listening to his music but this part of the interview moved me the wrong way #IMissLisa!

Can’t blame her diet on her decision or her psyche.

Why do our people pick this platform to speak ?

R.I.P Lisa Left Eye LOPES AKA NINA 🙏🏽

I can literally listen to Dallas Austin talk all day and night for a week straight! He has the BEST industry behind the scenes stories ever!

He sounds like Dennis Rodman

He legit speaks like he is the 4th member!

Did this dude just blame being Vegan for why she was off ? I guess dude is not as smart as I thought 🤷🏽‍♂️.

This dude is just blabbing about bs to make his story sound interesting. Going vegan caused her to lose her mind? Foh

Simple minded people aren't supposed to " get " advanced thinkers

Can someone give this man a book deal he’s dropping heavy jewels and some stories that have you like 👀

RIP Left Eye ❤

Dallas Austin I’m Confused ~ You Sound A Mess ~ Why Would You Write A Letter For TBoz And Chili And Not Let Them Know 🤷🏽‍♀️

Left Eye was more free and in touch with her spirit than they could ever understand

Suge Knight looks like uncle phil from the fresh prince

"I was the one who told Left-eye to go see dr.sebi" - TK Kirkland

Changing you diet can later your mental state for sure I’m witnessing it right now it’s for the best but it takes a lot of doing the right things to get through it

He called Dr. Sebi, the doctor. Speaks volumes.

They actually did try to replace her. They had an entire TV show contest for it.

Left Eye was woke rest in power to the Goddess

Wasn't Suge in jail during this time?

Vlad we need TLC and Xscape on here especially Xscape Tiny's the only person you had on here that's talled about them like that maybe Jermaine Dupri too but they were so underrated as a group Just Kickin It and Understanding will forever be beautiful songs

I came to comment and I see it's 702 comments, 702 is another rnb group, hey Meelah dem!! Lol
