"Girl Talk" is an R&B/hip hop song written by Lisa Lopes, Anita McLoud, Edmund "Eddie Hustle" Clement, Kandi Burruss, and Tionne Watkins, and was the first single released from TLC's fourth album, 3D (2002). It featured a short phrase by 2Pac at the beginning of Lopes' rap. It was produced by Hustle and released as the album's lead single in North America in October 2002 (see 2002 in music) and worldwide in December 2002. While "Girl Talk" became a moderate success in the United States with a respectable peak position of #28 on the Billboard Hot 100, the song fared quite better overseas. "Girl Talk" reached the top ten in Taiwan, and Japan, and the top twenty in Denmark, and New Zealand.
