TLC, Salt-N-Pepa and En Vogue Bring Insane Hip Hop Energy to the iHeart Radio Awards

 

TLC, Salt-N-Pepa, and En Vogue were three of the biggest names in Hip Hop back in the day. Known for their catchy tunes, fierce rhymes, and distinctive styles, these three all-female groups were defining names in the genre – something they have proved beyond all doubt with their recent collaborative performance at the 2026 iHeart Radio Awards.

The video of the seven-minute-long sonic spectacular has reached nearly a million views on YouTube in a matter of days, with each of the three groups bringing their inimitable brand of girl power and jaw-dropping vocals to the stage. Just some of the iconic hits performed include TLC’s ‘No Scrubs,’ ‘Shoop’ by Salt-N-Pepa, and En Vogue’s ‘Free Your Mind,’ all of which have clearly stood the test of time.

Viewers from all over the world have flocked to share their praise for the performance, with many remarking on not only the singers’ incredible vocals, but also their fierce outfits and smooth dance moves. “This crowd ain’t hyped enough. These are LIVING LEGENDS,” commented one fan, whilst another even went so far as to say the performance should have been a Super Bowl show. And you know what, Music Man readers, we can’t help but agree!

This isn’t the first time that such fierce female energy has been unleashed on the iHeart Radio stage, of course. Check out the video below, for instance, which shows powerhouse vocalist Jennifer Hudson performing her version of Cher’s ‘If I Could Turn Back Time’, before Cher herself rocks up to perform an electrifying version of her era-defining tune, ‘Believe’.

When it comes to unleashing unstoppable girl power energy, however, the award definitely has to go to TLC, Salt-N-Pepa, and En Vogue – in particular their recent hits mash-up at the iHeartRadio Awards 2026. With their flawless style and pitch-perfect vocals, this is not a performance that is going to be forgotten in a hurry.

TLC, Salt‑N‑Pepa and En Vogue proved once again why they’re living legends with that unforgettable iHeart Radio Awards moment. For more performances, interviews and classic tracks from these trailblazing acts, check the useful links below to discover more.
