Through all their personal and legal issues, Grammy award winning group, Bone Thugs and Harmony, will finally be reuniting with all original members. Krayzie Bone has recently said that the group has made amends with estranged member Bizzy and when incarcerated group member Flesh is released next month, the group is planning a full return to the rap game.
Krayzie Bone said, “Flesh will be home July 10th, he’s supposed to be getting out. Bizzy was at one of last shows in Riverside [California]. We had a good conversation there. We told people what it was. When everything got right, we was gonna come back together and what we had to do.”
The group’s original line up, which consisted of Krayzie Bone, Layzie Bone, Wish Bone, Bizzy Bone and Flesh-n-Bone, changed with Flesh, born Stanley Howse, was sentenced to 11 years in prison, after he threatened another man with a loaded AK-47. Then in 2002, Bizzy Bone was kicked out of the group due to drugs and alcohol issues.
So what's the next step? Krayzie went on to say, “We all just been hibernating, trying to come up with the concept for the album. It’s definitely going down. I aint gonna say its 100 percent just because of the label situation and the technical stuff, like if the label wants to pay what we deserver. As far as bone as group and us, we together. It aint just a rumor... We are trying to put it all back together for real.”
The group is preparing to enter the recording studio with Swizz Beatz, who is also confirmed to produce for the group’s untitled reunion project.

wow....thats great to hear, i hope they dop a banger 1st single
this is good to hear. now go make a good album niggas.
This is a good THOUGHT...and looks even better ON PAPER...
BUT.........
Unfortunately I think their time has come and gone. They dropped some great albums and had a helluva movement... But again...the time 4 Bone has pretty much come and gone.
The game isn't what it used to be and their "styles"... really wont sell in these days and times like it did back then.
It's good they squashed their differences and reunited... but... unless they could come with some pure fire...
I doubt if it'd be worth it now a days...
Everything is broken down into 2 categories now:
1. Us 80's babies...(real lyrics, underground, old headz)
2. Everybody born after... (commercial, mainstream)
~Be Eazy!
yo wiz what about us 70' babies, we still listen to hip hop too.
Bone one of my fav rap groups. They always got this mellodic gangsta flow. Shit always ride hard. Cant wait till the album drop so I can put one in the air to that.
Lets hope they drop some East 1999-type shit. i miss the old bone thugs. Honestly, their last album was ehh. The shit with Jermain Dupri and Mariah Carey just killed the whole album. But it was a decent album. Lets hope they can drop an amazing album!! Bone Thuuuugs.

now thats what im saying
they gunna come back strong
bone 4 life
My bad 2nd son! Lol...
Damn I actually forgot that there were people on this site older than me!
Everytime I get into an argument with someone they tell me I'm 47 or 50 blah blah blah lol.
Plus... yall 70's babies had EVERYTHING!
Disco, Funk, Rap, RollerDerby, Orignal Style, Good Weed, and crazy orgies lol.
Yall can't have everything!
Stop being greedy lol!
~Be Eazy!
i fucks wit them but i dont think the mainstream is gonna feel them...then again they had the joint with akon not too long ago and that shit was hot, but i dont know, good luck to them
ITS THE FIRST OF THE MONTH
It's tight that they reuniting but they aint gonna be on that art of war tip, they gonna be more mellow(didnt flesh become muslim??? dont remember) they GONNA be dope, for sure, but dont expect same kind of bangers
damn its good to hear flesh is finally gettin out
That's Wusup... Been Waitin On A Good BTNH Album For A Min.. When Bizzy Left It Just Kinda All Went Down Hill But Now I Guess I'm Still Here Waitin On Them To Drop Sum Of That Classic Chill Shyt I Like.. Seems Like Krazy Been Tha Only One Really Tryna Make An Effort To Patch Shyt Up And Get Things On A Roll... Good For Them.. Only Thing I Hope Is That They Don't Switch They Style Up Drasticly And End Up Doin That Bullshyt That Is Being Done Now-A-Dayz To Sell(Vocoders,Snappin,Stupid Unoriginal Hooks And Features,Effortless Material)... Scream At Me,1..
Exactly Nore...
That's the point I was trying to make... everybody's doing the comercial vocoder bullshit amongst everything else. And I honestly dont't see Bone doing it(at least I hope not)!
~Be Eazy!
Wiz *Gives A Pound To My Nigga*.........Great Mindz Think Alike FAm....Nuff Said Cutty... I Just Can't See That Vocoder Shyt Nor Would I Even Wanna Hear Them BTNH Boiz On That Shyt...They Respect Would Go Str8 Down, I Believe..Scream At Me,1..

I just think a few of them niggas need money
But N e way im glad to see that dis makes yall so happy
I personally dont give a fuck about dis bullshit but whateva
I gotta bounce...I'll see ya'll niggas at da crossroads!
GreenMonster...WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM???
Damn Homie...
I'm not even gonna spazz out like I normally do.
I'm going to stay calm because you OBVIOUSLY over-reacted!
I just can't believe that you're seriously trying to beef with me over BONE-THUGS!
Tsk Tsk Tsk!
Again:
The most important statement I made was:
"The game isn't what it used to be and their "styles"... really wont sell in these days and times like it did back then. "
KIDS (the people that buy albums now for the most part)...
Are going for "simple" shit now a days. With Bone...you had to really listen to what they were saying. They always had messages and what not.
SIMPLE shit is selling now... Lollipop, Soulja Boy etc etc.
Realax homie... I'm a fan of Bone too... DAMN!
~Be Eazy!
no one gives a fuck bout sales, Ultimate victory was one of the best cds of 08 and it didnt sell shit. Bone thugs all day, even there shit wit out bizzy was fire, imagin them wit flesh and bizzy, OUCH, gtfo Wiz im tired of seeing ur fatass comment shit 1000 times, get a damn life
You said they still got it because of T.H.U.G.S.?
That shit was recorded during the studio sessions for BTNHRessurection. Ruthless put it out without having (or needing) permission from Bone. I doubt it's any indication of how deez cats goin' ta work together nowadayz.
Although I got faith in dem boyz.
Big up to Bone.
I can’t even lie I never felt these dudes, they never appealed to my & mines,…hey only Bone Track I can say banged out to was “Notorious thug”, and that was on BIG’s album. Hold on, that don’t mean I don’t respect their craft, I just don’t fux w/ them. As far as a comeback goes, they need to fall back, release a best of album w/ 2-3 unreleased songs, that will sell more then what ever album they will drop,…True Story
Damn this early summer heat has muthafuckas gettin' extra emotional over shit!
Just lookin' for a reason to scream out names... I wont be baited today!
Lol... on a serious note... the reason why I mentioned SALES... is because they're NOT going through all of the trouble to put the group back together just for the fuck of it are they?
No they're not. They wanna sell records!
How many fuckin' times do I have to say:
READ MY FULL FUCKIN' COMMENT before sayin' some dumb shit to me!
DAMN...shit's gettin' annoyin' now!
If you can't read someone's full coment...then don't fuckin' comment on it!
That's just common sense! Keeps you from lookin' like just another Young Typical Idiot!
And I wont mention ya nut ass name! So stop screamin' out mine in every fuckin' topic!
~Be Eazy!
I'm a 80's baby and I rep bone too 70's baby. Age don't have nothing to do with it. It's your musical intellect that should be the topic, but Wiz bone will sell, all they have to do is put out their classic bud light songs and it'll be another classic...
son i was bein sarcastic
It'll be hott if they sold but...
Shit is just different now a days!
Like Berg said it'd be easier if they just brought out a Greates Hits cd with some new tracks. They'd be able to see exactly how well they'll be accepted in TODAYS hiphop world.
If THAT shit sold... then they could bring our something else.
Baby Steps...lol
~Be Eazy!
Lol, it's cool secondson!
Whateva it takes to wake people up!
~Be Eazy!
Wiz they already dropped 3 greatest hits cd's with a few new tracks, i don't think they really need another one. As much love as i got for bone thugs, i really wasn't feeling Strength and Loyalty (aside from a few tracks), it seems like with that they tried to head down that mainstream path, and it just didn't sound right. I hope that after being reunited, they can get back on that classic East 1999, Art of War, Creepin on ah come up type shit, that shit that i can never get tired of hearing...
On a side note i agree with watchthis, personally i was born in the 90's (91), and i appreciate lyrics above all else in rap, not to mention that i am disgusted with the current state of mainstream hip-hop. I just wish i could have been born a little earlier so i could have lived through the golden age of hip-hop.
who cares if they sell as long as they come with that Classic Bone shit Im satisfied. I can give a fuck if anybody else listen to it. And i wouldnt blame the younger generation for the reason why lupe and common dont sell shit....everybody fuckin downloads shit. I mean everything. even if they shit was fire niggas still gonna download before they buy.
Watchthis...
I really hope they do sell. I love that they're different and never gave into the bullshit that everyone is doing to sell records...soundin' like everyone else and all.
Plus I'm also hoping they sell for nostalgic reasons.
But again... the point I was trying to make before being attacked and called "fat" (WTF?) was that people are buying shit that they SHOULD be buying anymore... they're buying the shit that the radio plays... mainly...BULLSHIT!
~Be Eazy!
i wish them the best of luck, "the art of war" was a classic and hopefully they can put out a solid album because the music industry is in shambles right now "rocko,shawty lo,soulja boy,birdman,V.I.C." [smh] the music industry makes me sad that it went from rakim,big daddy kane, grandmaster flash, run-dmc to dem franchize boyz
JerseyCity i'm glad you posted that. rakim, kane, flash. all legends. and the game is in shambles. man in miss the golden era.
itll be interesting to see what kind of stuff they come out with... im happy theyre reunited but not sure whether its a good move at this point. ill support it either way tho!
good shit, there raps are sped up by comp but I've always been a bone fan
anybody know which cd it is with the accapella - "standin up on the block 9mm cocked in my hand, and I got them niggas lookin after my back" I think war or whatever it was but I'm not sure
Cheezus are U sure about dat?
I really dont think they raps are sped up by no computer
Im not really a huge fan though. So U might know better than me!
it was in a xxl a long time ago
whoa, the original team back together, this will be some shit, swiss producing it, yup, looks like a good album in the making.
I think this shits gonna work out. Flesh prob has alot to say being locked up for awhile. While Krazyie has been putting out fiya. The rest still have their great flows and I think I remember hearing some decent stuff in their movie awhile back. And while I personally like the majority of swizz beatz work this albums got a chance.
No doubt I'm gonna get this.
now the fugees need to finally reunite in the studio. one second thought that shit aint happenin.
Best Hiphop group of all time...wit bizzy n flesh back theyre gonna be a problem n like Krayzie said in a freestyle "Yall claim to be kings and control the throne so I tell em put up your title try your luck against Bone" Midwest all day..
FINALLYYYY!!! I'm glad they are reuniting. When they drop an album I'll cop that shit.
I feel u Wiz. im happy dey bak but shit aint gon sell. i jus cant wait 2hear bizzy wit dem again and my boy Flesh. even doe it wont sell 4real, atleast get it out 4my collection.
i mean shit Bizzy got like 10 or more albums and have of dem had garbage production and dey aint move no units
so i jus wanna hear it.
Yeah Valente...
I'm anxious to hear how they sound together again also.
I'm about to make my own best of bone cd...
Gotta have 5 of my favorite tracks on it...
1) Notorious Thugs
2) It's an Everyday Thang (from the Show sndtrk)
3) Thuggish Ruggish
4) 4 da love of money
5) 1st of the Month
Damn, now that I think about it... Bone has a lot of classic shit!
I wish em the best!
~Be Eazy!
they better come hard.
wiz what about DAYZ OF OUR LIVEZ(set off soundtracc)but i agree.. Big ups jersey and second for spittin reals...
yo Wiz i was born in 1990 and I HATE commercial shit. so stop tryna sterotype that bullshit when most of the rappers that make this GARBAGE RAP were born in the 80's. you need to bone thugs a chance and stop tryna callout a negative before its even happened yet.
i can't wait for them to make some music
I CANT WAIT! ITS ABOUT TIME!!!
I CANT WAIT! ITS ABOUT TIME!!!
Sounds good... Cant wait to hear some nu shit from em.
@wiz- everybody said bone fell off b4 they released strength & loyalty and that album was bangin and proved a lotta people wrong, im jus sayin with flesh back its gonna be a lotta motivation 4 bone 2 come with sum real rap. i spaz out cuz we aint got shit up here 2 rep but bron' and the browns so i gotta back up the land and mostly when bone thugs get tossed in the convo.
damn i like to hear the whole crew back together
jus wish that they had their old producer, i mean swizz beats is nice, but there old school music is classic.
I cant see Swizz and Bone workin out too good
What was there producer name from back in the day?
DJ U-Neek did alot of their old songs, but i dont know where he is today.
Yeah Uneek
Now dat nigga knew how to produce dat Bone Thug type shit
I think he was just as important as the rappers
How da fuck Swizz gone duplicate dat?
damn this is gona be sick bone thugs are nasty cant wait for this shit ya diggggggggggggggggg
ganstalicious??????? U freakin rump rider...who would want to be named that????
i got the sickness already. everyone loves bone thugs if you dont fuck off.
Interesting.........*Smokes Cheeba*
This is good news. 'East 1999/Eternal' is one of top 10 favorite hiphop albums.
i straight up love bone thugs..ill buy their album regardless..thank god for this shit.
Bone was the first out of the Midwest. Cleveland is hard... hard as fuck. Bone still lives here. Bone Thugs are just so true. They don't sell out. I mean...Lil L.O.V.E was gay... but they still had St. Clair and Choppers in the background of the video and shit.
Who else raps about Quija boards, Wasteland shit, Armageddon, Str8 up Warfare, and just WEIRD shit? Nobody! Bone is a one of a kind group. I have my doubts about this actually happening just cuz Bizzy is so fucked up, and Flesh will get in trouble again... but if this shit holds up.... I think Bone can really come hard and get back in the game in a big way. They've learned from their mistakes.
they are gonna comeback strong, i can tell
this is great news to me cuz I knew it was bound to happen
Yeah Valente...

DAMN WIZ HOW YOU GOING TO FORGET
DAYZ OF ARE LIVES
THUG LUV
MO MURDA
BUDA LOVERS
RESSERECTION
CROSSROAD AND THE REMIX (I LIKE THE ORIGINAL BETTER NOT THE ONE THEY MADE A VIDEO FOR)
BILL COLLECTOR
P.O.D
THOSE SONGS ARE CLASSIC
Lol... CHitown....
Because I was only going to post 5!
I didnt want to take up all of the space naming bone songs that I liked!
Just my 5 favorite!
They gotta lotta BANGERS!
Shit pretty the whole 1st cd... nobody (maybe twista) was doing what they were doing! It was a true movement.
~Be Eazy!
MAN, dats definitely whats up!! I always loved B-T-N-H, but they wasn't shit wit out Bizzy!!! CANT WAIT 4 DA ALBUM!!!!
Acestar,
Yeah I know they've gone down the greatest hits path before... BUT... as you mentioned... when they tried to release the last joint...it started to have that "attempted" mainstream sound.
And not the sound they were known for.
I still bang E 99 E in the whip...STILL!
And as far as me commenting on the years that people were born...IT WAS A JOKE lol. I was just fuckin' around like I always do. It doesnt matter when you were born (even though my decade was better lol) as long as u could recognize the DIFFERENCE in music eras.
I guess I was just lucky because I was bron in an era where we had pretty much the best of everything in regards to music.
And now a days... we have SHIT! Lol.
Also... even if u werent born in the GOLDEN ERA... the beauty of this era is that you could get online and still listen to shit from the GOLDEN ERA and compare it to this new SHIT (which I think is my biggest problem...I do it too much and i'm constantly let down by this new SHIT and how instead of elevatin'...everybody's gotten lazy fro the most part).
***GreebMonster**** No hard feelin' but I used to live in Dayton and Toledo and Cincinatti so I feel you on the hometown pride thing. Same shit here in Philly with Gillie and Beans etc etc... No hard feelin' fam***
Also DAYS OF OUR LIVES is hott!
But it wasnt in my top 5 for Bone songs...
But my top 5 are again based on Nostalgia... and what I feel when I hear those songs. A-lot of em take me back to my sis and when we used to try to rap like them and learn the songs lol.
Again... I hope this shit is hott... because the "game" seriously needs a MAKEOVER of sorts... everybody's doin' the same shit over and over and over again!
~Be Eazy!
It seems to me that Wiz is on point about the things that he say. I was born in 72, the only "rappers" we had was the Last Poets and Gil Scot Heron among a handful of others and I am glad to see that Hip Hop has come a long way just to be recognized as a culture. However, I hate the direction that Hip Hop has turned. It's not about the Lyrics and Beats anymore. I mean, I like Lil Wayne's new CD at least 5 joints off it. I'm not a Lil Wayne fan. Me being from the Midwest (or should I say Mid East),I've always liked BTNH and can't wait for all 5 to spit that fire. I got a feeling that when the new CD comes out,this one will be better than "Art of War" although "E1999" still gets regular play in everything I own. With that being said, To the one that said that Bone's lyrics are sped up by a computer You must have never heard them LIVE. That shit is THEM. To the person that said they should come out with a greatest hits with some new joints on it.NO NO NO bad idea what they need to do is don't rush a new album and make it right after all, the only ones who may buy it will be BTNH fans it's not like they need the money (maybe they do after Eazy-E's wife screwed them with No Vasaline). I remember when we first started having to deal with Nonsense Rap It started with LUKE and his "I Wanna Rock". No Lyrics what so ever but it was a banger in the clubs now we got Lil Jon, Souljah Boy and the like (No Talent ass wanna be rappers who are no more than Hype Men). I agree with Nas when he says Hip Hop Is Dead because look @ what we have to listen to now. I don't even bother with the radio 2 much anymore because each station plays the same BULLSHIT. For those that are commenting and really don't know and say shit like Lil Wayne and Souljah Boy are the Best Rappers of all time, Please do your Homework and Dig the History. These people are MC's not Rappers. Thanks for reading
I will always listen to the Golden Age of Hip Hop because that's where I come from. Wiz, you forgot about "Shoot 'Em Up" from the Great White Hype soundtrack.
I'm not trying to dis anyone just voicing my opinion and put these young cats up on game. I'm tired of seeing this Minstrel Show that we have the audacity to call Hip Hop.
midwest all day
btnh always been the shit but the hip hop community just gave up on them, yeah these niggas has done it but behind close door they had labe
