The album underperformed and T-boz had some candid thoughts on that era. “I think the singles that were picked were the wrong singles,” and confessed that 3D was TLC’s “weakest” album. “I probably would have came out with Turntable” dedicating the track to Lisa Lopes, and she also believed that “So So Dumb was a single.” “I haven’t figured out who I want to be with yet” T-boz responded pertaining to what label she is signed to. Akon, co-CEO of Konvict Muzik is among those who have already expressed interest in signing T-boz.
