TLC - No Scrubs (Official 4K 60FPS Video)

No Scrubs is a song recorded by American girl group TLC as the lead single from their third studio album, FanMail, released on February 2, 1999 by LaFace Records and Arista Records. The song was written by producer Kevin "She'kspere" Briggs, former Xscape members Kandi Burruss and Tameka "Tiny" Cottle, and TLC member Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes. The lyrics describe the role of a man in a relationship. Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas sings the lead vocals for the first time on a TLC single. No Scrubs became TLC's third number‑one single and eighth top‑10 single on the US Billboard Hot 100, where it peaked for four consecutive weeks. It was ranked number two on Billboard's year‑end Hot 100 singles chart of 1999, behind Cher's "Believe". The song won Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group With Vocal and Best R&B Song at the 42nd Annual Grammy Awards. The Hype Williams‑directed music video was released in 1999, depicting the three members dancing inside a space station. It was compared to other music videos such as "Scream" and "What's It Gonna Be?". No Scrubs received divisive attention following its release; several radio stations aired answer songs as a response, while the word "scrub" became prominently used worldwide.
