TLC Gets Criticized For Replacing 'Left Eye' w/ Asian Vocalist for Remake of 'Waterfalls'






In honor of its 20th anniversary, the classic R&B group TLC has remade "Waterfalls," however, the revised creation has left people baffled.


Chilli and T-Boz has used Japanese starlet Namie Amuro to sing the late Left Eye's bars in the song. The rerecorded single hit the Internet earlier this week but was deleted due to copyright issues. Plus Left Eye's fam is disturbed by the remake.


Vibe reported that the deceased TLC member's sister Reigndrop said:
"I did not know about it until a fan posted it online. I mean, it would have been nice if they would have given us a heads up before being surprised."


Others blame the release on the remaining group members trying to gain momentum. With a VH1 biopic soon to air, T-Boz and Chilli have been working on collaborations with those like Drake and Ne-Yo.
