Song |
"I'm Good at Being Bad" is a song recorded by American girl group TLC for their third album, FanMail. The track was inspired by Janet Jackson's song "What About" on her 1997 studio album, The Velvet Rope, which both shared producer duo Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis.
The song was released as a promotional single from the album around the time "No Scrubs" was sent to radio. Despite not ever receiving an official airplay or commercial release, the song peaked within the top 40 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart. Left Eye's rap section of the song was included in the uncut version of the "Unpretty" music video.
Composition
The song's original title was "Bitch Like Me". The song, along with "Silly Ho", is said to "crank up the raunch level" for the girls, with the lyrics describing "A 10-inch or bigger / A lick-it-from-the-back-type nigga [sic]."[1]
