TLC have achieved and surpassed their $150,000 goal on Kickstarter, with $161,582 pledged and 28 days left to go.
The legendary girl group are making one final album, and in order to retain creative control they're handing over the financing to their fans in exchange for rewards via Kickstarter.

Katy Perry has personally pledged $5000 to the project, which has earned her signed vinyl, dance classes with Chilli, a TLC scrapbook and an LA slumber party with T-Boz.

There's still plenty of time to get your pledges in, and as the band announced on their Kickstarter page, "The initial goal of $150,000 will go towards a writing session in the studio with a producer and engineer."

"The money beyond that will go to booking music producers, writing sessions, mixing sessions, recording sessions, and SO much more. We want to work with the best in the business, so the more we raise means access to the best."
