N.I.N.A. (lost tracks from unfinished Left Eye album; 2002): Difference between revisions

Revision as of 13:43, 5 October 2016

The late Lisa Lopes (Left Eye)

Status: Lost

R&B/rap singer Lisa Lopes, (more commonly known as Left Eye, her stage name), from popular girl band TLC had planned on going solo, following TLC's increasing popularity throughout the 90s. In 2001 she released her first and only solo album, Supernova, which received mixed reception. She had planned on releasing a second album titled N.I.N.A., which had her working with glam rock legend David Bowie. The album was deep into production until she was unfortunately killed in a car crash on April 25th, 2002, leading to the album being scrapped.

N.I.N.A. was slated for a posthumous release by Suge Knight (head of Death Row Records, the label to which Left Eye was previously signed), who stated that he had intentions to release the album in October 2002, but this never happened for unknown reasons.

While there was a 2011 album released called N.I.N.A., it simply contained remixes of songs from her previous album. Some sources claim two songs on the album were from N.I.N.A.'s original recordings, but this is merely a rumor.
