@MsFGrace11 ...you've pretty much nailed it...lol. Also she had to file 2 lawsuits - one against LaFace records (settled out of court) and one against LA (she won the suit) because of business dealings that were not on the up and up with LA. (and remember, TLC were not the only artists having financial trouble with LA at the helm). People hear one side and run with it, but rarely get into the details of both sides. Either way, it was years ago .... so back to the music! lol

Now known as Sister Perri Reid. A bona fide Christian. Anyway, it hit #1 soul, and #5 pop in Billboard. God bless!
Right Mega, Pebbles takes the sole credit for writing Mercedes Boy. I forget that Charlie Wilson produced most of side B of that lp, including Do Me Right (which I love him & her for making)
In case no one has said it before, this is the video edit of the Dance Remix. It was issued as promo in US, but on commercial singles in other countries. It is available on an 80 #1s from universal music now.

this is a "radio edit", but of the remix version, not lp. the person who edited the video also edited the remix, cuz full length of this radio edit is 5:45. there is also an extended version of the remix that has 8:30 length. and as i remember the radio edit also came out as a "vocal edit" along with lp version of the song and instrumental

Vanessa actually had nothing to do with the writing of either song; but she was initially offered this song before it was given to Pebbles....she offered to pay more for it and she threw in a car, so she got it. Pebbles wrote Mercedes Boy before she signed her record deal; she made a video with the song and used it to secure her deal (of course it was shot anew when released as a single).

It's called the Radio Remix, but some vinyl releases simply call it the "Radio Edit" even though there are more than one radio edits. One being this remix, another being the album version cut to 5:26, and another cut being 4:19 which is the official VEVO video version.

Janet, Pebbles, Karyn White, Whitney, etc etc etc. Nowadays, it's really difficult to find a shapely black woman that's kept herself in shape and is down to earth. They're all mostly out of shape and prudish :\
