TLC member and iconic female rapper Left Eye's unreleased recordings are set for release in November featuring a bevy of collaborations with Missy, Tupac, Lil' Mama, Bobby Valentino and more.
Slated for release November 11th, Lisa "Left-Eye" Lopes' posthumous album entitled "Eye-Legacy" will feature 12 unreleased tracks along with a series of re-tooled and remixed songs from her limited edition international release, Supernova (2001).
The first cut from the album entitled "Legendary" is slated to become a single of sorts featuring brand new production on her duet with the late Tupac Shakur.
Missy Elliott, Chamillionaire, Lil Mama' and R&B crooner Bobby Valentino also contribute vocals and rhymes to the album.
"We hope people understand the message in Lisa's music and appreciate
her as not just a member of TLC, but as a solo artist as well. This
album is Left Eye's musical gift to her fans and adds to the beauty of
her legacy," The Lopes family states.
According to a release from Mass Appeal Entertainment, 'Eye-Legacy' will also include exclusive bonus material with never-before-seen intimate video footage from Left Eye's final days.
A percentage of proceeds from the album sales will go to support the Lisa Lopes Foundation and her orphanage in Honduras.
"Eye-Legacy" is due to hit stores and online retailers November 11th.

Left Eye was always my favorite and will always be the best girl rapper ever, cant wait till Jan 27th '09 when "Eye Legacy" comes out!!!
i think that this is realy cool... i hope can u hear me is on there.... I was lookin up left eye and i think the 3 cd album wouldve been very cool and they couldve gooten a feel for each member... i wish that chilli and tboz would make a album titled left-eye for the 10th anniversary for her death.... chilli is in the process of making an album... her voice is beautiful as well as tboz but i think that they should use left-eyes raps from supernova and contribute them in there although chilli sayed that she couldnt do that (add left eyes voice) again. but i think that they owe it to there die heart fams
Eye Legacy has actually been pushed back to January 27th 2008. Get ready for the most anticipated album of the new year!!

Did you know that the Bobby Valentino mentioned in this article(more usually known as "The Midget", both in talent and height) stole that name from a UK singer, singwriter, violinist and actor?
