This day in music history.

April 25, 2002, At the age of 30, while in Honduras, Lisa (Left Eye) Lopes lost control of the vehicle she was driving causing it to roll over throwing Lopes out the window. She died instantly from severe head injuries. The singer was one of eight people in the vehicle at the time of the accident. Three members of the band Egypt were taken to the Dantoni Hospital in La Ceiba. Lisa was a gifted pianist and the heart of the Grammy-winning R&B trio TLC. Her funeral was held at the New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Lithonia, Georgia. Over 30,000 fans attended.
No Scrubs by TLC
A scrub is a guy that thinks he's fly
And is also known as a buster
Always talkin' about what he wants
And just sits on his broke ass
So (no)
I don't want your number
(no)
I don't want to give you mine and
(no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere
(no)
I don't want none of your time and
(no)
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hangin' out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Tryin' to holla at me
I don't want no scrub
A scrub is a guy that can't get no love from me
Hangin' out the passenger side
Of his best friend's ride
Tryin' to holler at me
There's a scrub checkin' me
But his game is kinda weak
And I know that he cannot approach me
Cuz I'm lookin' like class and he's lookin' like trash
Can't get wit' a dead-beat ass
So (no)
I don't want your number
(no)
I don't want to give you my mine and
(no)
I don't want to meet you nowhere
(no)
I don't want none of your time
(no)
If you don't have a car and you're walking
Oh yes son I'm talkin' to you
If you live at home wit' your momma
Oh yes son I'm talkin' to you
(baby)
If you have a shorty but you don't show love
Oh yes son I'm talkin' to you
Wanna get with me with no money
Oh no I don't want no (oh)
No scrub
No scrub (no no)
No scrub (no no no no no)
No scrub (no no)
No
See, if you cant spacially expand my horizons,
then that leaves you in a class with scrubs
neva rising
I dont find it surprising
if you dont have the g'sto
please me and bounce from here to the coast of over seasso,
let me give you something to think about
inundate your mind with intentions to turn you out
can't forget the focus on the picture in front of me
you are as clear as dvd on digital TV screens
satisfy my appetite with somthing spectacular
check your vernacular
then I'll get back to ya
with diamond like precision
insatiable is what I envision
can detect acquisition
from your friend's expedition
mister Big Willy, if you really want to know
ask chilli could I be a silly hoe?
Not really, t-boz and all my senoritas
are steppin to your filas
but you dont hear me no.
