Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins and Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas may have found their next gig.

The remaining members of hip-hop girl group TLC are reportedly featured on J. Cole's upcoming album, "Born Sinner."

"I got TLC on the album, T-Boz and Chilli," Cole told BBC 1Xtra. Cole's second studio album will also feature a collaboration with Miguel. "Born Sinner" will hit stores on June 18 -- a date Cole picked to directly compete with the release of Kanye West's upcoming album, "Yeezus."

Watkins and Thomas are reuniting in July for a performance at Hershey, Penn.'s Mixtape Festival. The women are readying a new album, hyped for a release later this year. The project will be the first album of new material that TLC will release since 2002 when the group debuted "3D."

TLC's last album was released after the untimely death of original group member, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes. TLC's 2013 album will include collaborations with Drake and Ne-Yo.

"Everybody has been so responsive about working with us," Watkins told Rolling Stone about the project. "No one has said no yet."
