Opening it with “Look Into My Eyes” from “The Art of War” really starts things off on the right note, it’s the kind of rugged musically and harmonious lyrically track that epitomizes their style and sound to a T. It’s a testament to not only how popular the Bone Thugs are but how universal their appeal has been, from East coast to West and all around the world.ĭisc two’s material is no less satisfying. It’s also interesting to note they are one of the few groups who can say they recorded with both 2Pac and Notorious B.I.G., and it’s no coincidence that on the first disc their songs “Thug Luv” and “Notorious Thugs” are paired back to back. “Days of Our Livez” hails from the “Set it Off” soundtrack. “Shoot ‘Em Up” comes from “The Great White Hype” soundtrack.

In fact the first two full length songs of disc one “Thuggish Ruggish Bone” and “Foe Tha Love of $” are their first two hits respectively from the “Creepin on Ah Come Up” EP way back in 1994, and the next song “1st of Tha Month” was the first hit from 1995’s follow-up “E 1999 Eternal.” There are some soundtrack and solo songs to be found throughout the set though that may be SLIGHTLYless familiar to Bone fans.

The closest they’ve come since 2002’s “Thug World Order” was tis year’s release of Layzie & Bizzy Bone’s duet album “Bone Brothers,” and although several tracks on it suggest a full reunion is possible only time will tell if they’re all willing to put aside personal and professional differences to make it happen.įor anybody familiar with their discography, most of this two-disc set will not come as a surprise. Like the Wu-Tang Clan, their success as solo artists has led them to become less and less dependant on reuniting to work together. It’s not only a good time in their career for reflection and review, it may for better or worse be the final statement on their legacy as a group.
With a career spanning over 10 years, a large fanbase that has not shrunk despite their erratic history or long gaps between releases, and a loyalty rivaling Wu-Tang fans when it comes to supporting solo projects, the Bone Thugs-N-Harmony are indeed worthy of a “Greatest Hits” release.
