Oldie But Goodie: "Unpretty" - TLC


"Unpretty"



This is an oldie but goodie by R&B group TLC titled "Unpretty" which was the second single released from the band's third studio album FanMail. The song was produced and co-written by Dallas Austin along side TLC member T Boz. The track originated from a poem titled Unpretty written by Watkins, which dealt with a woman's insecurities and struggle with her self-image of trying to keep up with what "society" says women should look like. The poem was an inspiration to a motivating, empowering song to help their female fans overcome the struggle of trying to "fit in". Take a listen!!
