hot take: T.H.U.G.S is bones worst album to me and the only song i like off of it is Remember Yesterday :manny:


no other beats have the signature bone sound and they sound like beats you'd buy on a website $20 for 5.

Other hot take: Uni5 isn't even that bad. in fact, i like the album and it gave me 4 fukking classics:
(in order from best to worst)
1. Just Vibe
2. Universe
3. Pay What They Owe
4. Everytime
5. My Life

i don't get why everyone talks down on that album and just those 2 top songs make the album worth it and blow T.H.U.G.S out of the water .

Remember yesterday with just kray and Bizzy>>>>>the one with the wish verse :scust

Pay what they owe is an all time favorite of mine
Everytime
See me shine
Meet me in the sky
I actually fukk with only God can judge me too. Kray, lay and flesh was a nice mix

i definitely get what you're saying, and i'm not trying to make it out to be like Krayzie was the only one putting in work or anything.

I just think that Krayzie (and Bizzy) are the most melodic geniuses in the group comparably. They're also the best lyricists, singers, and have the best flows imo. This isn't to take away what everyone else puts into the group at all. Like you said, it's a collaborative effort, but it's pretty telling when you hear the consistency in not only their verses, but solo work in these regards and you can see what they bring to the table.

(i also notice you never mentioned Wish in your post tho :patrice: :lolbron: :troll: )

Lmao i hear you... and wish is a tough case for me. He was my favorite when I was a kid because he was the only one I could actually understand. But even after growing up his verses on creepin on ah come up and e1999 are as legendary as the rest of the group. Unpopular opinion but in the heat of the moment in 1995 you could make an argument for wish being the best member of bone.... unfortunately after that its down hill.

He had some BIG moments on AOW but that's when the other members of the group started to lap him. And by resurrection it was over. Although he gets busy on TWO.

And btw my boy that said bizzy needs to sing less also thinks wish has the best singing voice. Pretty interesting perspective

Wish had a few moments where he was the highlight of the song, in my opinion.

Tha Crossroads(actually both versions)
Everyday Thang(The Show)
Shoot Em Up
No Surrender
E. 1999 is a tie between Wish and Layzie

I feel the same as you! On the earlier albums like tracks like Everyday Thang and Eternal, Wish killed the shyt!

"Interesting perspective" is a nice choice of words though for your ending statement though lmao

Holy shyt I never heard that version of Remember Yesterday with Wish :scust:

I'm glad I never found this version until now.

Yes! See me Shine and Meet Me in the Sky would've been the next tracks on that list and they're good tracks although not my favorite from that album. Much bone love :salute:

East 1999 might be wish best verse after no surrender
Wish on Mo Murda :wow:
1st of tha month
Mr. Bill collector
Bud smokers only
Eternal
He was going off on shotz to the double glock too

No wishbone verse on E.1999 was below an 8.5

mo murda might be bone with all the stones. Every verse was elite. Worst verse was Layzie Bone and it was still a 10. And I would only say it was the worst because he didn't have any little sing songy quotable like the other members in that song. But he didn't need one because he rapped his ass off.

You're lucky, I heard the wish version first lmao.

But yeah uni5 was cool. I just wish they would've dropped again. Lord knows they had enough songs recorded for it. Or maybe just do some new ones and continue to get into the groove. Remember they just hopped into the studio after flesh getting out from doing 10yrs and Bizzy being distant for like 8 (aside from bone Brothers) im sure it took a minute to get used eachother again. With kray lay and wish operating and recording as a 3 man group for longer than they were a 5 man at that time

He was going off on the whole E.1999.

And yeah idk what else to say about that lol. I love wish. But he's a big part of AOW not being a perfect album to me. And I dont like how they had him closing out alot of the records when he should've been placed somewhere in the middle to mask his short comings.

That has me thinking has wish ever started off a a song?

I totally agree that Uni5 wasn't even that bad. Worst part about the album was that European dude on them skits :mjlol:

My wife got annoyed at me having Pay What They Owe on repeat. She would go as far as imitatating Flesh's "Oooh yeah" on the hook

Yeah pay what they owe is one of them ones. Its almost like they hopped in a time machine for that one. They all killed it, even wish... oh wait :troll:

One thing that gets me about uni5 is I was expecting flesh to be on some resurrection shyt after 10yrs locked. I thought he would be ripping shyt apart like let the law end... but nah he was just chilling
