TLC have confirmed that they're reuniting to make one final album - after a fan-funded Kickstarter campaign proved a massive success.

The '90 R&B group, famous for songs like 'Waterfalls' and the feminist anthem 'No Scrubs', had a massively successful decade before suffering a tragic loss - the death of Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes in a car crash in 2002. They released no more albums after Lopes' death.

Now though, after a Kickstarter campaign raised $430,000 (£279,000) - more than doublethe $150,000 they initially asked for - they've set about working on their first album in 14 years.

Speaking of the band's fifth album, producer Ron Fair said, "It's old soul music. It's '90s throwback music. It's vintage TLC and I can tell you that their vocals sound exactly the way they did the last time you heard them."

There's no release date or title yet for TLC's comeback album, so watch this space.
