Now that TLC surviving members T-Boz and Chilli announced they’d be performing at this year’s Mixtape Festival and revealed details about their forthcoming album and a potential full reunion tour, TLC fever is in full effect. And it is global: German DJ YUM YUM has mashed up the vocals of the group’s classic “No Scrubs” with the beat from Macklemore & Ryan Lewis‘ world-conquering “Thrift Shop.” Get it?! Because “Thrift Shop” is about penny-pinching, and “No Scrubs” is about broke fools hanging out the passenger side of their best friend’s ride!

We’re always in favor of a random mashup, but we’re especially fond of ones like this that have some sort of clever underlying connection between the songs. Hear it below.
