I the fuck out of Bone Thugs N Harmony! I really do and have ever since the very first moment I ever heard them!

I am so happy and so thankful they are ALL back together and doing just what it is they do!

Their new CD "Uni:5 The World's Enemy" is set to drop April 27th and if they bring it like I KNOW they can...this is gonna be THEIR year!

This is the first track, "Rebirth". The video mind you, is unimpressive and simplistic. I do believe that's on purpose because the song is THAT MOTHERFUCKING DEAL!!!



Go 'head and SHINE y'all!

not feeling the new stuff.

less wish bone please

".....see you at the crossroads"....

On the See Me Shine single, that is Lyfe Jennings brother, Jay Rush, singing the hook. He is currently on tour with them. Listen to the similarities in their singing style.

What's some of their 'classic' material? Heard alot about how great these guys are...

So nice of you to ask! I love posting my brothers, Layzie Bone, Krayzie Bone, Bizzy Bone, Wish Bone, and Flesh Bone cuz I'm that girl Sexy Bone!

Their earlier stuff is Not exactly Safe For Work





These aren't as raw:





These are my personal favs:

If I were to bundle all that BTNH is and put it into just ONE song that is MY definition of what "classic" BTNH is...it is this:

classic bone?

East 1999 Eternal

thats all you need

minneapolisFunq said:

That's actually my least favorite song by them. I know, right?

I like it well enough and as much as I love BTNH, it was just not that BTNH enough for me.

song?

thats the name of the album.

you clearly dont love btnh that much

HatrinaHaterwitz said:

this is my fucking song . used to love them

minneapolisFunq said:

Clearly I'M talking about the SONG, so

wooooo thats my jams

For me, "Art of War" is the best BTNH album, after that it's a tie between E1999 Eternal and Creepin' On Tha Come Up. 'BTNHResurrection' is patchy but it does have some classics on it, "Paper Paper" is just too dope.....gotta get that paperpaperpaperpaperpaperpaperpaper

One of my favorite groups of all time. Bizzy is my favorite and he's in my Top 5 rappers list also.

My friend, the late Johnny J (RIP), played me some unreleased Bizzy material from the "Heavenz Movie" sessions when I went to his studio for the Tupac documentary I made for the BBC, it was awesome.

Anyway I've been patiently waiting for the new album! I'll be buying it on launch day!

Militant said:

They're one of my favorite groups of all time, too! I love Bizzy's skills but I love them all and can't quite pick a favorite amongst them.

To me, they're all so distinct and awesome at what they bring to their craft individually, kinda like The Temptations. And just like The Temptations when they're all together, nobody does what they do better.

You made a documentary about Tupac? That is awesome! What is the name of it, if I may ask? I'd love to see it, that is, if I haven't already because I just me some Tupac, too!

HatrinaHaterwitz said:

Yeah, for sure. They all have insane skills but I think Bizzy's vocal tone is what makes him stand out the most to me.

Of course, nobody flows like Bone, but I think Bizzy's best material just tears it up. He's a bit less consistent overall than Krayzie, perhaps, but when he's on point I think he's more or less untouchable - see "Body Rott", "Down '71 (The Getaway)", "Look Into My Eyes", "Thug Luv", and the aforementioned "Paper, Paper".

My Tupac documentary was a radio documentary for the biggest hip-hop/R&B station here in the UK - BBC 1xtra. It was a 2 hour documentary that included the likes of Quincy "QD3" Jones III, Candyman 187, Gobi (the director of many of 'Pac's videos), 'Pac's first manager Leila Steinberg, and many other folks. Unfortunately the whole thing isn't online - I don't have the rights to put the whole thing online, plus the logistics of uploading 2 hours of audio are a little difficult, lol.

However, after Johnny J tragically passed away, what I did was create a new 20-minute documentary as a tribute to Johnny - using the audio of my interview with him from the first doc, and recording some new parts, then syncing it with photos of my original trip making the documentary, and other relevant photos. Here it is:




If you're a 'Pac fan, you'll enjoy this. If I find a reasonable way of getting the whole original documentary online (and the BBC don't get it taken down), I will be sure to let you know.

me too

Militant said:

Cool, thanks! I'll need something enjoyable to listen after spending all day listening to Congress and the Health Care debate. And I look forward to maybe one day hearing the rest.

HatrinaHaterwitz said:

There is also a song called "eternal" so how the fuck was i supposed to know what you were talking about?

and if you dont like the song east 1999 i have 2 wonder why you made a thread about bone in the first place. that track is essential for any fan.

for me the older stuff is far superior.

dj-uneek created a great set of beats that fit the style they brought to the table.

minneapolisFunq said:

My bad!

Obviously, you're in the WRONG forum! The...if you don't EVERY single thing...ESPECIALLY the "essential" thing(s) of an artist or group of artists...then you shouldn't say ANYTHING at all...forum...is just one click above this one!

you might have just won the award for most consecutive fails in this thread.

east1999 is the jam for real. arguably the quintessential bone track.

how is it not "btnh enough" 4u?

i have never known a bone fan who didnt like the song so i find it odd.

especially after seeing you praise that wack rebirth song in the original post. you want to talk about not btnh enough just listen to that shit.


obviously we can agree 2 disagree but this is a message 4rum and its an everyday thang when ya letcha nuts hang

bongbong!

minneapolisFunq said:

I am a Bone fan and I DON'T LIKE IT! What part of that is perplexing to you, I don't know. I wouldn't give a damn if every other BTNH fan in all the land, bust a 5 minute nut whenever they hear it, that wouldn't have anything to do with me and what I like or don't like!

When you grow up, hopefully you'll have learned how to be an individual and make your own choices about things, too! Until then stay out of grown folks conversations. Especially mine because they're too over your heard!

When I grow up I want 2b a fireman!


i'm just sayin', if you want to catch feelings about it be my guest. (you are a woman after all)

BongBong!!!

alright im done here

Chill the fuck out guys, we're all Thuggish Ruggish up in here, so it's all goooood.

I agree that U-Neek might as well be a member of Bone, his production style matched up with them perfectly.

Having said that, I loved the productions on the "Strength & Loyalty" album (from the likes of Swizz Beatz and Will.I.Am) - my only beef was that Bizzy wasn't on that album.

Militant said:

I'm chill and flying above the haters.

HatrinaHaterwitz said:

I Bone Thugs...and this is my all-time fave video. It is amazing and the message is so awesome. Be as little children. My fave 'bone' is Krayzie Bone though. Something in his eyes..and he used to be a Jehovah's Witness. I have mad respect for anyone who can get out of organized religion's clutches yet still maintain their message and their 'heart' and soul.





Ya'll think Prince got lyrics???


Armageddon...

The time has come...Let us unite...Mo!
Thug Queen
My heavenly father's children (Felecia My heavenly father) the time has come for
judgement/ Armageddon/ False prophets
never blend in/

For we are revelation angels descending for our sins (KB My
Lordy-Lord) No need to pretend

For providin' me oxygen, I loved since I began/ Prayin' to wash away my sins/

Babylon the Great, has fallen
Offsprings of the wicked one, crawlin'/
Fearin' that their Lord is callin'/

Bless these seeds of the Almighty.
(So much hostility installed in me)
Destination of the infamous (burn eternally)
Bless these seeds of the Almighty
(So much hostility installed in).
Destination of any earth(burn eternally)
Krayzie
Oh, look what we've done,
what have we brung?
Oh, look what we've done, what
have we brung?

Souljah Boy

It's Armageddon/ Pay attention/
You better recognize, the end is comin'
You'll be wishin' it wasn't time to die cuz I can see and I can feel it/ It's
all in my bones

And ain't no tellin' when you livin', you're dead and gone, but strong
We come through this war/ I thought you knew it's over/
We recruit, they loot
and loot
You better be prepared to shoot/

So look out boy (And it's really comin') Uh-oh,
uh-oh

Krayzie

No no, not no evil system/
Armageddon bring new kingdom
Hey, tell me where you runnin' too, cuz when I find you
You're marked by the
beast
So you're not a surviver/
So it's time to die,
kiss ourselves good-bye/
The
whole world
bites the dust, couldn't live; we're corrupted up

Souljah Boy

Enough, get up and get yourself together/
Get your kids
Cuz they rebellin',
got to learn 'em the lesson/
It's tough, you're brought
Caught up in your own web/
And it's your fault, got no pulse/
Armageddon
'bout havin' you broke off, but, still you don't wanna learn, learn
(Standin' too) close to that fire, get burned, burned

Krayzie

Murda is comin' to get us (believe it) Can see it in front of your face
(You can feel it) I hear all the screamin'/ The vision of killin' us, swiftly
finna get rid of
us wicked ones/ It's the end of the world/ Puttin' us all in a coffin/ But y'all don't be
feelin' me now?

How silly can we be?
It's judgement day as we speak (speak)
And there ain't no other road (No!)
Death is the only way to go, slow
Murda is comin' to get us, split us, all within time/ Armageddon...

-Refrain (Felecia)-

Armageddon (armageddon) The end is comin'(The end is comin')
You better get ready(You better get ready) Oh, Armageddon(Armageddon)

Krayzie

Armageddon/ Destruction rollin' over us in murderous ways
Killin' you, everybody, see? Did anybody pray?
But it's much too late
If you have not been chose on Judgement Day
Bloody fate/ And you can't say
"Wait!"

Can you imagine? See, your life can end
and I mean your life's
just flashin' (Poof!)
Gon' do, gon' do? You gon' live the rest of your life
Or do you wan' die with the rest of your life, life?
Somebody callin' me
Tellin' me, "You better get up, the end is comin'! It's comin'!" They comin'!"
Yes!"And I mean it!" I know it, I know it's near!" Look here, ha! You ain't
tryin'
to be outside when the sun no longer shine, that's right, that's right
That's right/ And look at you burn, we're lost/ Fallin' from the ground
Law-free are, we are freedom from the po-po/ We don't need 'em no more
And I hope you catch the first blow

Souljah Boy

I'm givin' much praise to the Lord above me/ No one could
change that/ I'm knowin' the difference between life and death and why you lie
back?
Gimme your life and live forever/ Who put you all on that level? Cuz the life
will be nice

Souljah Boy

will do you better/ Never put anything before your children
Honor your mother or father, you're gonna live forever in the Kingdom Peace
The Maker; he got somethin' for us/ He gave us life, y'all
And he's gonna have to destroy it, gotta make it right

-Refrain-
Mo! Hart

And there shall be great earthquakes
and the sun becomes as black as sack cloth and the moon as blood.
And the stars of heaven shall fall unto the earth, even as a fig tree
casts her untimely figs when she is shaken of the mighty wind. And the heavens
the heavens will depart as a scroll when it is rolled together.
And every mountain and island will move out of their places.
And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men
and the ship captains, and the mighty men, and every bond-man
and every free man shall hide themselves in the dens and in the
rocks of the mountains. And shall say to the mountain and the rocks,
"Fall on us, fall on us and hide us from the face of him that sit
upon the throne and from the wrath of the lamb, for the great day
of his wrath has come" And who shall be able to stand? Who shall
be able to stand? Who shall be able to stand?
