Bone Thugs 'N Harmony

[HyeJinx1984]

So, any fans?

It would be an understatement for me to say Bone is my favorite group... words can't describe the amount of love I have for these guys, many of their songs shaped my personality, belief structure and politics.

The Art of War, in my opinion, is their best album to date. Agree? Disagree?

[sSsflamesSs]

Disagree. Anything with the word "thug" in its title, I develop an aversion to.

[HyeJinx1984]

Shallow, but I can respect your opinion. LOL, boy would you be offended by my group's name...

Oh insult me, how mature of you. I've actually heard them (unfortunately) and their lyrics do not appeal to me.

insult? *scratches head* "I respect your opinion"? Maybe you thought I was being sarcastic, but I really did mean it, I respect your opinion.. I've had my own disregarded enough times to give other people's enough validation in return for some myself.

Oh, I guess you thought the shallow part was Insulting.. well, I have a horrible way of saying things, but I was just being honest... "ANYTHING with the word thug in it I have an aversion to" That means you disregard things over something as minute as a word in the title... to me that seems shallow. Can't help but remember the band "Garbage"... with a name like that I should have disregarded it, but I listened to it and ended up liking it quite a bit through my highschool years (can't find the CDs now for the life of me).

Never said you had to like Bone, that's certainly your choice to make.. just saying that it does seem a little shallow to say you have an aversion to something simply cause of something like that.

However just so i don't have to deal with anymore message board drama (funny how much more of that I get rather than regular real world drama) I can honestly say I'm sorry if I insulted you in anyway shape or form and would like to rid any reason for there to have a problem with a fellow Tribesman... er.... Tribeswoman...

Ok, perhaps I should speak in literal terms from now on.

When someone says "dzeres arnum?" they don't mean "are you buying a hand?" Get it?

From my experience with rap and the like, the word thug has been associated with filth, murder, and materialism. Now, I have not come across many exceptions, so I'd say that my opinion is valid enough. Just looking at the lyrics, I can't make much sense of them. My theory is that rap dumbs people up. Just look at the grammar, the message, the whole aura. I see enough of this in everyday youth. It's pretty sad, really.

I leave you to be enlightened by the following lyrics:

Shotz to Tha Double Glock
Ooooooooooooo....killa [x2]

If you're down to glide and slide on the Clair, then let's ride
Tony Tone roll with Bone on the dark side
But when you come just bring your guns witcha
If your a busta niggas gone have fun witcha
So nigga don't get me wrong, my niggas
Swang them thangs, bang some brains
Slangin' yayo, it all remains the same

Step and you'll catch some buck shots
Murder one on the Clair my glock glock
Mo thugs whats up nigga get dropped
Put 'em in the mud, pop and I can't stop now
Nigga that I thug wit' kill
Pop to tha chest how does it feel
And nigga we peel caps
Pap, fit to get your wig cracked back
Killin' I'm buckin em down, I wish ya would
Try to get some, redrum, xxxxx
Nigga don't test my hood

A first degree murderin' wig splitta, grave digga
Diggin' a ditch, puttin' a xxxxx
And them snitches in the pit, so don't f**k with
Them niggas off the 9 9
The foundation of niggas commitin' a crime is murderin' every time
Nigga beware cuz here come the Clair
Mobbin' like them soldiers
Watch me fold ya
For actin' like somebody never told ya
So off we go, to the bloody row
Tryin' to blood some souls, with that nine shot
Givin' props to the double glock

Pump pump when I let my shell down
Hit a nick nack gimmee the goodies and nigga me dash
Ya reach for the gauge and mash
Yell out 187 and blast
Nigga don't test nuts your luck's f**ked
You feelin' up right for the bone yard
Thuggin' off with the graveyard shift
Then comin' up blow your whole card, xxxxx
Scandalous niggas, dwellin' the Clair be servin' them chop chop's
We rippin' them guts with buck shotz, pop pop

You better be ready for this thug style
Krayzie, Layzie, Bizzy, Flesh with them wicked now
We straight up the glock glock
Well don't get your wig's split now
East 99 follow me down the strip as we trip to the darkside
Betta grab your pop, niggas be
Trippin' and flippin' as soon they get out
187 you're caught in a murder
Niggas up to no good
Uh oh, f**k no
They never could f**k with a thug ho

Pop pop givin up shotz to tha double glock glock [x4]

Nuthin but them killas, straight up thuggas
Rippin bucks up bloody clothes
Gaugin' bloody watch this nickle trippin' shot and f**k 'em down
Buckin' them coppas down
Round after round after round
Bloody bodies badges spread out on the ground
Ain't no sound, just them demons screamin' rest in peace
I guess you got ta suffer
Ready to pip hollow point tip, got your wig split
They made your body
Once you hunt my victims on a mission
Flippin' livin' on a darker side
Creepin' on your homicide
Let my nuts and my gauge hang low now walk on by,
Boogie Nikke's on a night ride

Thuggin through my thuggish ass hood at night, with my pipe
Thuggin down the double glock
Tryin' to get my serve on
Watchin' my back while six-five try to roll on
But one to the suckas head and two up in his body
Now peep my creep I eat the reefer smoke all up inside me
We jumpin' up rough from the hood
We bailin' we thuggin' we lookin' like crooks
Could tell we be fatal, ready to roll
Know we willing and able
Rollin' with Ruthless xxxxx betta check my label
Murda dem, never come again
When the scandalous niggas set up
Bloody nigga trues be on my level
Eighty eight and ten five is the soldiers ghetto
Nigga don't take the wrong turn
or you will enter the hood and were spittin
so cover your dome
At a cut where the thugs and hustlas roam
Cleveland Browns
Dogg Pound hoes, it's on

Let's begin in the mix, of a Clair player
You're liable to get your wigs split and dumped in a ditch xxxxx
Cause them thugs, sendin' them slugs
Leavin' em off in the cut in a puddle of blood say what
Don't make me go in my trench
Nigga ya got me bent
All f**ked up,your luck's up, you gotta get sent
To your gravesite as John Doe for f**kin wit those...

It's them thugs runnin' amuck,
on none but a slug all up in the territory
Never divide, go nationwide with the buck buck
So where you at where you at
I'm strapped and ready ta snap n yank a nigga's neck back
puttin em Koolaid hats
In ta the graveyard
Pumped up betta get down
Thugs'll be glad ta tear around
Foe sombody gets f**ked
Ya still don't want some xxxxx but what the muthaf**k I wanna
Wham ya wit a tec-9
Now xxxxx press yo luck

Pop pop givin up shotz to tha double glock glock [x16]

Ooo you're good. I could also post the words to "Change the world" but I'm not in the mood now. You have to take all rap witha grain of salt. Yes, there is meaningless violent parts to it... but that's just for attitude and style... by the same token I advocate action movies. But that was still a good come back, you're adding quite a bit to our genepool

*cuddles up* Me love ma sistas...

[angelik22]

they have god lyrics .. they're songs are cool... but im not too much into rap and stuff... unless it's Tupac

[Siggie]

[angelik22]

i like the one they did with phil collins... anything with phil- i like
