Classics Discussion: Bone Thugs-N-Harmony

[Tha_Mac]

Why no Creepin On ah come up? Cause it was an EP?

I was looking for that too. Creepin On Ah Come Up and E.1999 Eternal are the classics imo. And I also thoroughly enjoyed BTNH Resurrection.

 

[Tha_Mac]

I've got real issues with quality on E. 1999. But I'm not a Bone fan.
can someone make the argument for the album being timeless?

I still jam E.1999 Eternal today. I chopped and screwed that and Creepin on ah Come Up with virtual DJ a few months ago. That's what I do now chop those classics up becuz this bull shyt of today has me like

Where do you feel E99 is weak? The only song I skip on there is Buddah Lovaz and plenty of other ppl love that track. I skip Mr Ouija but that's more of an interlude than a song. Other than that the album is flawless imo.

I'm not a fan of that style of rapping or production. But my opinion doesn't matter, if it's a classic, it's a classic whether I like it or not.
So post some objective evidence that the album is held in high regard by the core of hip hop fans.

Here's some press calling the album classic:

They also toured off this album last year, including their first-ever Toronto show. Their set was just them doing the album. No new shyt, the only other extra was Foe Tha Luv of $ at the end.

East 1999 has some trash beats. One sounds like it was tapped out on lilly pads in an enchanted forest.

 

[Craig Mack]

Voted yes for E.1999 & AOW. I personally liked AOW a lil bit more than E1999.

The XXL article says it doesn't get the props it deserves.
Is there a reputable all time albums list where it's in the top 50-100?
I'm probably gonna vote yes no matter what, but I'm curious.

creepin on ah come up was on the source top 100 rap albums of all time in 98..but E.1999 is the bone album. Them nikkas toured, performing that joint in its entirety last year. Says it all.

 

[Wacky D]

creepin & e.99 are locks for classic.
AOW - i voted classic.
ressurrection = not a classic but it was and still is the chit.
TWO - it was alright. theyve had better projects than this.

 

[DPG]

Only E.1999.
