While attending the Mobo Awards in Liverpool this past weekend, Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins and Rozonda “Chilli” Thomas revealed plans to release their first album in ten years which is sure to excite TLC fans worldwide. It’s been more than a decade since the tragic death of Lisa “Left Eye” Lopez, but the duo said they are ready to hit the studio once again.

“We’re going to still sound like TLC, evolving to whatever level we need to be at this time,” Watkins said on Saturday. When asked about how they would fit into the modern pop scene, the 42-year-old singer said she has full confidence that TLC can adjust to the current music climate.
“We’ve always grown throughout the years and have always had our own sound. That’s what works for us and we don’t have to worry about anybody else,” she added. “When that stops working, maybe we’ll hang up the towel, but that still works.”
In addition to new music, the group is also preparing to head out on tour with the possibility of an appearance from Left Eye. In the form of a hologram, of course.

“The hologram is something we talked about and thought about years ago, obviously timing is everything but we’re definitely talking about it,” Thomas told the U.K.’s Metro. “It will be hard on us but I certainly think out fans would love to see it. We would definitely be the first group to ever do it.”
In the meantime, TLC is also keeping busy with production on the group’s television movie for VH1.
