"Financial struggles also dominated their lives. Prior to the release of TLC?s
first album in February 1992, TLC had no revenue streams other than what was
provided under their contracts with Pebbles? companies. Pursuant to the
Publishing Agreement, TLC received an advance of $10,000, paid in monthly
installments ($833.33 per month) to be split among the three members. Per Chilli?s
letter agreement with the group, she received only $153.33 per month ($38.33 per
week), while Tionne and Lisa each received $340 per month ($85 per week). But
even these tiny amounts were reduced, as Pebbles docked portions of these advances
from the group members for cursing or other violations of Pebbles? rules."
WOW! Pebbles was a BITCH
