Sporty Thievz Follow-Up Due In Summer

The rappers who parodied TLC's 'No Scrubs' will return with a second album.

The Yonkers, N.Y., trio Sporty Thievz, who answered TLC's "No Scrubs" with a hit of their own, "No Pigeons," are working on the follow-up to their debut album, Street Cinema, according to a Columbia Records spokesperson.

The still-untitled album is due in August. No other details were available.

Sporty Thievz recorded "No Pigeons" (RealAudio excerpt) after "No Scrubs" (RealAudio excerpt), a male-bashing song ("A scrub is a guy who can't get no love from me"), rose to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. Their song was equally as harsh toward women — "A pigeon is a girl who go walking by/ My rimmed-up blue brand-new sparklin' five/ Her feet hurt so you know she wants a ride/ But she's fronting like she can't say 'Hi,' " they rapped on the first verse.

"No Pigeons" became the #1 song on Billboard's rap singles chart; capitalizing on that, the group re-released Street Cinema with the song included.
