West Coast G-funk, generous with hooks and indebted to ‘70s soul and funk, was a clear influence, so it made sense that Bone Thugs’ major break came courtesy of N.W.A.’s Eazy-E, who signed them to his Ruthless label. They started in Cleveland, where no top-selling hip-hop act had come from before, and their music was different from the outset: The quintet of Bizzy Bone, Flesh-N-Bone, Krayzie Bone, Layzie Bone, and Wish Bone specialized in intricate high-speed rhymes about street life that carried unusual melodic contours and multi-part harmonies. The Art of War III is reportedly the group’s last album in its original line-up.When they formed in 1991, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony were onto something new-their melody-first approach to hip-hop sounded particularly fresh and pointed to how rap would progress in the coming decades. The boys are back in town!” said David Michery, CEO of Seven Arts Entertainment. “We are very excited by BTH’s new music, which brings them back to their roots and their great success with DJ U-Neek and Kenny McLeod on Art of War. The LP will feature all five of the original emcees – Krazie Bone, Bizzy Bone, Wish Bone, Flesh-N-Bone and Layzie Bone – as well as longtime producers DJ U-Neek and Kenny McLeod.
The members of Bone Thugs have announced that the third installment of their Art of War series will drop this November 27 on Seven Arts Entertainment.
