In 1992 when the recording of "Facez Of Death"(First Bone Album) took place, At the time Bone Thuggers, LAYZIE BONE(#1 Assasin A.k.a. L~Burna), KRAYZIE BONE(
Sawed Off Slim) BIZZYBONE (R.I.P., RIPSTAH) And WISH BONE (Straight Jacket) Were known as B.O.N.E. ENTERPRISE and were all at their very young ages. Trying to get out of the streets, all five member's (W/Flesh~N~Bone,Layzie's older brother) took a bus to Los Angele's to meet, who would later on become their mentor, great gangsta rap icon Eazy~E. They were unable to get to him on person, but, later got with him by phone where Bone performed for him throught there. Eazy~E didn't get back at them, later on when Bone found out Eazy~E was going to audition in Cleveland, they put their things together and headed out back to Ohio. After the show Bone had the opportunity to meet Eazy~E and perform for him live backstage. Eazy~E was impressed and signed them on the spot. A few weeks later they found themselves recording in Eazy~E's studios in L.A. recording their debut album E.P. with the title "Creepin On Ah Come Up". The album debuted at #1 when it was release in '94, and brought a fresh new style to the Rap Game, and it alone sold over 2 million copies. The follow up to "Creepin On Ah Come Up", "E.1999, Eternal" would debut on 1995 and with the single "The Crossroads" (A tribute to their deseased mentor, Eazy~E would make history for breaking the legendary group, The Beatle's, record for highest/faster rising single ever) which would sell over 10 million copies till date. Later on would come "The Art Of War" in 1997, Follow up to "E.1999, Eternal". "The Art Of War" would debut at #1 on the Hip-Hop/Rap charts and sell over 3 million units. After much solo success by Flesh~N~Bone, Krayzie Bone, and Bizzy Bone, Bone Thugs owuld return as a group in 1999 to start recordings on their next wonders, from those works came "BTNHRESSURECTION" which dropped early 2000 and has sold over 2 million units till date. And their latest album titled "Thug World Order" dropped late 2002 after a year and a half of wait from fans, Personally, to me this album is O.K., I was feeling it but I do have to say I didnt like a couple of tracks dropped on there. Nowadays, in 2003, many albums are dated to drop soon; solo albums, a Mo~Thugs Family album, group albums, Etc.
