TLC’s 1999 classic No Scrubs adopts an interesting position in the history of commercial music. Apart from being a classic in its own right, it was released in early 1999 in two forms; the radio friendly hit version, complete with its repeat-to-fade chorus, and the rap version, which includes a full rap section at the end of the song, supplied by the late, great TLC figurehead, Lisa ‘Left Eye’ Lopes.
Part of the song's enduring appeal emanates from its contentious title and lyrical thrust.
