Bone thugs 'n' harmony - E1999 Eternal

haha i just searched for this thread to post the verse i already posted in this thread

These guys probably deserve to be in the discussions of canonical hip hop groups a lot more than they do.

true

they have some many weird little phrases and vocal tics and weird ways of saying stuff that i love

like saying "run run" instead of "run" or my personal fav "me killa"

never really read a good interview with these guys? i wonder if their style was dancehall influenced?

the sorta liquid phrasing and half-singing, half-rapping seems kinda dancehall....as well as stuff like "me killa"

Phil later told us, ‘The reason why I granted the song to be cleared is because I said to myself these dudes must have great taste in music because ‘Take Me Home’ is one of my favorite songs.’ That whole experience was great.”

wow has anybody heard Faces of Death? pretty curious about that

anyone read this? pretty fascinating, even if the layout gets super fucking annoying https://medium.com/@JordanLebeau/bone-thugs-n-harmony-b0e700e85eae

growing up in cleveland we all loved bone thugs but i never really had a sense of how they were received outside of cleveland, i was just a kid then too

sorry i posted the wrong link, this is what i was talking about: https://medium.com/@MatteoUrella/machetes-dipped-in-rum-e591d103b890

i never really had a sense of how they were received outside of cleveland,

i'm from nz and it was cool to see in that article that we're still supporting them

they were HUGE when i was in high school

Yeah, they were pretty big in most circles at my Catholic high school in Cleveland at the time. 1995 was also the year the Indians were absolutely dominant and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame opened. It was a great time to be in Cleveland.

...and then, it all fell apart (/Behind the Music).

when i was in junior high in chicago i swear to god they were bigger than biggie

w/o Bone there'd be no Do Or Die Po Pimp and Crucial Conflict Hay in '96
