3D is the latest release from TLC, and I can only think of one word to describe it... AWESOME!
TLC have been a super stars in the Pop genre for quite some time now and 3D is an excellent illustration as to why.
3D is a nicely varied, mix of 13 tracks that are very well written and brilliantly performed songs by these clearly superb musicians. Most of the songs display a lot of the kind emotion that makes for a really great listen. Seemingly drawing from what I can only imagine are their own real life experiences. At different points touching on the most real emotions of love, heartbreak, pain, failed relationships and unattainable romance. They"re all here.
I give 3D my highest recommendation. It just plain belongs in any serious music collectors collection regardless of genre preference.
While this entire CD is really very good some of my favorites are track 3 - Girl Talk, track 5 - In Your Arms Tonight, and track 7 - Hands Up
My Bonus Pick, and the one that got Sore [...as in "Stuck On REpeat"] is track 13 - Give It To Me While It"s Hot. This is a great track!
