The 12-track 'Eye-Legacy' features previously unreleased vocals from the rapper and collaborations with Chamillionaire, Lil Mama, Bobby Valentino and Missy Elliott, who appears on the record's planned first single, 'Let's Just Do It'.The album is being released with the consent of Lisa's family, who released a statement saying: "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."
