Lisa Left Eye Lopes Barbecues Her Some Shoes (with Ashley Ray)

TLC was the definitive girl group of the ‘90s. They dominated both the hip hop and pop music scenes. They were pioneers of feminist music and culture. Perhaps no member of TLC embodied the group’s independent ways more than Lisa Left Eye Lopes. After Lopes was charged with arson for setting the home she shared with her football player boyfriend on fire, Lopes was seen as a truly chaotic figure. What really ignited that fire, though? 

Joining Tess to talk through the icon that was Left Eye, is Ashley Ray (@theashleyray) , host of “TV I Say.”
