TLC - Red Light Special (REACTION)

[@xcviii3392]

Chilli did what she had to do on the bridge 🔥

[@briizy300]

A great bridge I miss when a had those 🤟🏽🙌🏽

[@jamesde74]

Her voice on the song “take our time” from crazysexycool is out of this world 🥰

[@lindsayannbarr4747]

10000%, I can’t help but sing that part Every. Single. Time! Ugh the best!

[@alterego2978]

Fun fact, T-Boz can sing in a more "normal" voice or range but the record company told her to do the deep voice b/c it would stand out...it worked

[@JayAquarious]

TLC has chemistry and is like sisters when they were together but lived their own separate lives when apart.

[@WhitneyR.]

Babyface put his foot in this one. Check out Diggin On You by them, too. He did that one as well and it’s also very smooth. Chilli is the “sexy” one with long hair. TBoz had the short hair. The album was CrazySexyCool (Left Eye/Chilli/TBoz). Left Eye didn’t rap as much on the album because she was in rehab after burning down Andre Rison’s house.

[@anthonyanderson9303]

Yea that was kinda the beginning of the end as far as the friendship among the members of the group. Left Eye started having a difference of opinion with the other two. That's also why she wasn't on Fanmail as much.

[@seanmcclanahan9366]

It would’ve been #1 if it wasn’t for Montell Jordan’s 1st hit.

[@jjmargolis3305]

@@anthonyanderson9303 the friction started after 1997s...

[@marklouis1890]

That makes sense

[@denisechavez1867]

Who are the 2 guys

[@artgroupie]

T-boz had so much BDE energy in this video (the whole era tbh). So much swag!

[@belinda35_77]

🙌🙌🙌

[@gabrielcastaneda704]

why’d u put energy twice 💀

[@TubeMySwag]

Their early stuff from their debut album has a lot of Lisa’s raps. This particular album lacked her content because she was going through a lot of personal issues with the law. I’d recommend reacting to “Ain’t to proud too beg”, “hat 2 the back”, and “kick your game”.

[@Markadown]

hat 2 the back / I gotta kick my pants down real low / That's the kinda girl I am / That's the kinda girl I am 🎶 Man - the memories!

[@anthonyanderson9303]

What about your friends! That song was my jam as well.

[@TubeMySwag]

Anthony Anderson oh yeah, I forgot about that one

[@jmontenegro1124]

Also FanMail hadn’t much raps of her. It’s a shame cause she died and we didn’t really enjoy all of her talent.

[@M360-w6o]

The first album was built around left eye for sure

[@rahsaanephriam48]

I have to admit when I saw that you were doing a reaction vid to this song all I could think was "um he ain't ready lol" You are one of my favorite KZbinrs and one that has this cool vibe about your sexuality and you love artists that express theirs so I really enjoyed this Jack Reacts vid!!

[@erikafigueroa5128]

@@JackReacts904 Red Light Special in certain areas Red Light Districts is where prostitutes/sex workers are, and a red light in front of their room/apt. means they have a customer. So a red light special means ... When Sting was part of the group The Police - the song Roxanne has a line that says "Roxanne you don't have to put on the red light"

Happy 50th Birthday T-Boz | April 26, 1970 ♡ In Memorian of Left Eye | May 27, 1971 - April 25, 2002 ✞

[@Zayday1993]

so we not gonna talk about Tboz and Lisa getting into it and her flipping that table 😂😂😂

[@Markadown]

"What's the red light special?" - you too young for that! j/k Keep up the videos! And yes, they were/are really close!

[@kijonnaemcclay1379]

I said the same 😂

[@rogersimpson8871]

Lol I know. I was wondering if he was old enough to watch the video.

[@alterego2978]

The term "Red Light District" used to be used to refer to areas of high prostitution so the Red Light Special is pretty much referring to umm freaky business lol

[@mirrortintedvessel]

TLC--Sumthin Wicked This Way Comes----verses from Left Eye and Andre 3000 from Outkast...dope message

[@lelle1068]

Tboz was ALWAYS a beast, slaying the dance moves for the group- TLC and AALIYAH= some of the 90s BEST to ever do it

[@spartanrealah2121]

TLC was so sexy in this video they made being a freak sound so damn beautiful🥰

[@deonnadyson]

Right...

[@grubbyD]

Kick Your Game by TLC was THE jam. Check it

[@charleswanzor4969]

Left eye had a 2 good verses

[@TheLilly]

Is that a young Boris Kodjoe cuddling up to T-Boz at the beginning of the video?

[@jalilmanson8980]

This is a classic. #2 on the charts and one of their best. I hope you do "Baby Baby Baby" next.

[@ltsoul9751]

T-Boz is the one singing the chorus, she has the short blonde hair, and Chilli is the one with the longer hair, she dated Usher for years in the past. Confessions was about her, if you know that song.

[@BryanDuplechaineIIJr]

Confessions WAS not about her lol

[@BurnTheReciept]

Yea it was, most of the al um was about Chili

[@BryanDuplechaineIIJr]

@@BurnTheReciept Believe what you want.. Confession was about a relationship Jermaine Dupri was in..And the album was not about her.

[@bigb2494]

Confessions was about one of Jermaine Dupri's personal experiences

[@brynneholt1990]

Confessions was NOT about her; it was actually Jermaine Dupris’s story.

[@Gunz7989]

TLC- ain't too proud to beg has left eye in it

[@traycetitterington5550]

Jack, I couldn't stop laughing when you said "okay, Bon Jovi" lmao 🤣

[@newsing33]

Right 😂 But that was a sexy ass guitar solo and went so well with the video!

[@CharlesMosley129]

4:40 to 5:15 my favorite part of the song. the melody and vibe is unbelievably good.

[@BryanDuplechaineIIJr]

The one with the deep raspy voice and short hair cut is T-Boz Chilli is the one with the long curly hair that belted out the bridge. If you want to do a TLC song with a fire verse from Left Eye react to these songs: Kick Your Game Sumthin' Wicked This Way Comes Feat Andre 300 And also this is not a TLC song but Left Eye has a fire verse on it Donell Jones - You Know What's Up Feat. Left Eye

[@dezziemob7512]

If you like those deeper female tones i recommend the Living Legend Toni Braxton.!

[@sjoo8]

This is one of my favorite TLC songs! I was wayyyyy too young singing this. I asked my mom why she let me sing it and she said, "You didn't know what it meant your vocals were on point." My mom and I both sing so there's that lol.

[@highland_persuasion]

Nice. These TLC tracks are also fire: Diggin' On You (great summery vibe) Dear Lie (awesome low vocals) Way Back (one of their last singles)

[@dirtyface-capone7622]

Back in the day, this wasn't my favorite TLC track.Ironically, it sounds better to me now than it did back then.Guess nostalgia's enhancing the quality for my ears.Always loved me some T Boz, tho.She was my childhood crush.

[@KHALIFA1597]

U need to react the the entire TLC CRAZYSEXYCOOL album ....it's straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@_Shaquille_]

React to Aaliyah “I don’t wanna” I personally guarantee it’ll be your new favorite song🙏🏾

[@meramera8911]

Red light Special represents studio setup back in the day. When artist would record songs in the booth of the studio they would turn on a red light. The red light meant that no one could enter or disturb them b/c they are in the middle of recording a song. So TLC is saying they will give the guy they are fucking with the red light special meaning it’s all about him, with no interruptions from any outside source.

[@windycity_b]

React to Diggin on You and ain't too proud to beg both by TLC

[@docducttape9270]

Red light is kind is the sock on the door type deal. Means don't disturb. Lol

[@kourtneyjohnson1557]

I was literally just thinking that you should react to this and here your cute ass go with this new video.

[@cchild12789]

T-Boz is the deep voice. Chilli is the one who did the bridge, who was the lead singer on No Srcubs. If you want ones with Left Eye, try What About Your Friends, Ain't Too Proud to Beg and Girl Talk. She raps on those songs. After the 1st album Ooooooohhh.... On the TLC Tip, you don't get much of Left Eye outside of sporadic appearances on songs.

[@deoimtaegoines430]

Eric B and rakim- I ain't no joke, microphone fiend. LL cool j- I'm bad

[@erikasnow2104]

"Diggin on you" another great TLC song written by babyface

[@byron916mauck]

I remember when LEFT EYE burned down ANDRE RISON's house

[@coygary]

The Red Light Special its when you come thru the door, take off her clothes, and turn on the red light. It's the last part of the hook.

[@thomassmith2227]

Under-rated, Love this song. This whole album is 🔥

[@josephnedrad6972]

T-Boz was the "Red Ranger" of TLC lol

[@taycobb1868]

they have always been close and they still are

[@WhitneyR.]

Lisa rapped more on their first album. What About Your Friends. Ain’t 2 Proud 2 Beg. Hat 2 Da Back. She has a verse on Switch (no music video), and a verse on Donell Jones’ U Know What’s Up.

[@MsLuvmusic81]

Yes! All of those!! I love Left Eye’s raps

[@WhitneyR.]

MsLuvmusic81 One of my favs was Sumthin Wicked but it’s more like spoken word. Lisa was very creative.

[@MsLuvmusic81]

Right I was gonna mention that but like you said it’s not exactly rapping. I can’t remember if she was on case of the fake people. But Kick your Game is a great song from crazy sexy cool album and they’re all on that one too

[@marzblaq7267]

He should listen to Left Eye’s voice during the Freedom song!

[@dezziemob7512]

I recommend What About Your Friends by TLC

[@kevmitchell3689]

Something wicked this way comes is the best tlc track ever.

[@NIKKABLUE]

The guitarist in the video dated chlli, was her boyfriend at the time and is the father of her oldest child

[@bublifuk]

More recommendations based on this: Toni Braxton - You´re making me high 3T (Michael Jackson nephews) - Tease me 3T featuring Michael Jackson - Why En Vogue - My Loving AND if you like sultry voices like those of TLC, you NEED to discover the Goddess SADE - Love is stronger than pride, Paradise ( both live from San Diego) or No Ordinary love (live from 2011) who´s the definition of sensuality and smoothness.

[@mcnzefili]

T-Boz is usually the lead singer on almost all the songs (like this one) with her funk sound. Chilli usually does the bridge with her R&B sound. Left-Eye does the rap. T-Boz and Left Eye were brought in the group by a member who got kicked out and replaced with Chili. T-Boz started the song, Chilli is the other singer

[@terryallen7853]

The girl you referred to about her voice is T-Boz whom always had that unique voice as you said. Chilli is the songbird that did the legendary bridge. The music video was and still a far fetch from what they were known for lol but it was amazing lol. They definitely were sisters though they had their fights and misunderstandings through out the years but the love obviously still remains today.

[@MelindaChovexani]

This young man was not prepared XD

[@JayAquarious]

T-Boz is the blond haired member with the deep voice. Left Eye is the rapper. Chilli is the dark skinned member with the powerful vocals.

[@glenaldothompson717]

she is not that dark skinned it's make up

[@M360-w6o]

Chilli did her job towards the end !!!!!!

[@MsLuvmusic81]

Damn that was him, he was young as hell here lol

[@sroebuck117]

Three women who know what they like and know what they want. 😉

[@wonettathomas4552]

I ain't to proud to beg, What about your friends, Get it up, and Hat to the back. All have Left Eye rapping.

[@blackkatt777]

TLC: T is T-Boz. L is Left Eye. C is Chili. Red light special refers to the older days of public sexual advertising. For Example...Amsterdam where prostitution is legal. If you go down some areas that cater to that, you'll find ladies standing in a full window, like you'd see at a department store display window. They are dressed for the mood, and the lightbulb is red, not white. In the sixties and seventies lots of house parties would use a red light to indicate the vibe of the evening. Sexually charged. In Beyonce's "Six inch heels " music video, she uses the red light affect. So if your significant other flirts with you and tell you she/he is gonna give you the red light special tonight, you now know it means it's about to go down and get freaky.

[@tanyadavis6921]

its late night freaky fun in the bedroom and some people like to use a real red light bulb to make the room feel sexy!

[@Libragirl168]

Somebody's getting their feet licked on 😂😂 timestamp 5:37

RIP Left Eye Lisa Lopez! These girls were forced to grow up too fast. Big ups TLC!!

[@MsLuvmusic81]

This whole album and the album before this were great albums

[@marzblaq7267]

You should give This Is How It Works from the Waiting to Exhale soundtrack. TLC did the song and it’s basically Red Light Special but freakier and Left Eye raps on it and she kills it!

[@williamjones3534]

Red light special as in red light district which was where one could get "special" service. Red light district was where one could go to meet ladies of the night.

[@jamesde74]

My favorite part in the video is when Lefteye flip over the table🤣

[@greyli1149]

React to Xscape : Feels So Good and Just Kickin It 🔥🔥🔥🗣

[@Anibonita2000]

Left Eye raps on "No Scrubs", "Ain't Too Proud To Beg", "I'm Good at Being Bad", "What About Your Friends" and "Kick Your Game".

[@arimasmemphis4061]

Back in the 70's, 80's and 90's, when someone had a house party or a small gathering and wanted to set the mood, they'd change the light bulbs, mostly to red. That red light use to mean that it's going down (making out, smoking weed, drinking and sometimes sex). I've also seen blue and green lights but red is the one that I remember seeing most.

[@jg3865]

That was a good reaction. I thought the video was great. No one stuck out like a sore thumb. They had a nice mix of different types of men ( shout out to the gorgeous Boris Kodjoe). They all looked beautiful in the video too. R.I.P. to Lisa left eye.

[@cabaniukm5949]

U KNOW WHATS UP - DONELL JONES FEAT LEFT EYE!

[@RamblingsofaFilmLover]

This has always been such a hot song. But I always crack up when Left Eye fights with T-Boz and then flips the poker table.

[@ahmad.tillery.1987]

T- Boz is the lead vocal on this song

[@XxBabyGurlLovexX]

Thank you, Jack for this! 😘❤ I love the energy this song brings and it stays on repeat for a sensual mood booster. Please react to TLC's "Let's Do It Again" 🔥

[@davidjohn6070]

This has to be one of the most sensual and sexy songs every written lyrically and melodically. Tionne Tenese Watkins aka T-Boz's smokey and sultry lead vocals take it to another level. Red light special is a tantric method of sex. Check out and react to Brownstone's "5 Miles to Empty" and "Grapevyne" The harmonization is off the chain.

[@najwaflowers7014]

Okay Bon Jovi😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 yoooooo you got jokes!

[@zachariahrichards2843]

The red special is a reference to the red light district, made famous in Amsterdam. If you’re in a red light district you’re in the pay for hire district. However if you get a red light special, you’re in the district but you aren’t spending a dime! 😉😉

[@cordbarnes]

Red light special is like when you start and stop and start and stop and start and stop so by the time you get to your final destination, then... ummm. 🌋 its so you make the “night” last and end it with a bang 💥 🤣🤣🤣. These videos are great covid watching.

[@kimtalley4496]

T-Boz is the Husky voiced 1. & the other that u don't know her name is Chilli.

[@mikefisher4834]

Watch the biography of TLC and you’ll realize why most real artists today choose to stay underground and independent Hip-hop and R&B💯

[@brynneholt1990]

Red Light District is an area in Amsterdam, where prostitution is legal, and the prostitutes would put on a red light in the window when they were available to work.

[@senaith8909]

Thank you for reacting to this 😄 I always get your videos late at the evening , so I'm the whole day waiting - like -, Hmmm, what is it gonna be today 😆

Red Light is what brothels use to indicate women are open to servicing Johns

[@mikefisher4834]

The blonde one is T-Boz💯

[@medylemaproductions]

FUN FACT ⭐️ : Actor Boris Kodjoe is the guy stripping in the video

[@TikaRose222]

The Red Light special derived from the Red District during the Western and Renaissance age brothels, women of the night were popular ...

[@Jrmy_Makaveys]

You should watch baby baby baby by them in live if possible (they add left eye's rap) ,thats their first hit

[@reactwithbri5703]

They were extremely close in real life. They were like sisters. And also chilli is the one with the black long hair, Tboz had the short blonde hair. And also can you react to Girl Talk by TLC

[@coygary]

The first girl is T Boz, the one in the bridge is Chili. Left Eye pretty much just raps. She doesnt really sing.

[@JayAquarious]

The reason why it's called the Dirty Version is actually because there are 3 different versions of the music video: Sexy Version (the version the GP knows more), Sexier Version (the version you're watching right now, that's now the Dirty Version), and the Sexiest Version. Each video more sexually explicit than the previous.

[@KenyanOtaku]

I love how you enjoy the music 😭😍 and will definitely subscribe 😊

[@kylesexton6067]

Hey, somebody else mentioned it a few days ago, it’s a Donnell Jones song with Left Eye, think it was the You Know Whassup remix

[@dawnstarrlookingelk2895]

Red Light Special is a reference to the Red Light District in Amsterdam, also tantric method of having sex.

So...... long ago if you were selling yourself, .......... one would put a red light at the door. Brothels had a red light outside.

T-boz is the one with short blonde hair, Chili is tiny with long hair n u know Left Eye

[@antoniomoreirarr]

The red light is when the room is occupied so the light is on ( a red lamp on the door )... because the room is occupied!!

[@ryanoldchief6054]

I loved to watch this. I love to show my nephew n nieces tlc music cause it was such a vibe in the 90s n still remains to be that vibe. Check out 'give it to me while it hot' from the 3d album. Has all three girls on the track. T boz n chili vocalize in unison on the song n left eye does her prolific rap.

[@lelle1068]

Yea you should check out TLC "kick your game," fuzzy vid they have on KZbin from an Awards show. Left Eye and her sis perform with that one...
