What Stopped Bone Thugs Being on the Same Level as Wu Tang was..

[Wacky D]

Wtf are you talking about?

I think hes waving the white flag.

he pretty much said he was going to do that anyway, after the thing about the features on the album covers.

I've watched many videos with Akala & he's a well spoken bruh; especially in regards to Black issues. But this video kinda puts to rest the reason Wu is not only better but were bigger than Bone

Watch from 2:20-4:35

man you upped this thread, just to post a video of some foreign fakkit.

lol @ wutang being the first rap group go beyond the black community and not use hooks.

 

[Vancouver Grizzly Fan]

The trolling in this thread has got to stop. WU has never and never will be on bone's level.

ODB, RZA and few others were complete trash.

Had you watched the video instead of talking out of your ass as usual you'd see the point. But you're also biased in regards to Bone

obviously I watched the video, seeing that I'm quoting stuff that he said.

I'm not biased at all.

clearly, youre the one with the bias. your bias is blinding you from even reading my posts & communiticating with me properly.

nikka I could care less about you or your opinion. And anyone that's been here long enough knows how biased you are in regards to Bone. And even if you did watch the video you completely missed the point because of your bias

 

[Long Live The Kane]

appeal to white nerdy fred types that went on to have jobs in mainstream media and the last remnants of East coast elitism in hip hop meaning anything . ..in real time, bone was the more impactful and successful group

 

[Guess Who]

Bone had more sales because their shyt was more accessible because them nikkas were singing half the time--they had appeal to people who weren't just rap fans who literally didn't understand what they were saying--but they bought the albums because the harmonies sounded good. Wu-Tang didn't have that sort of accessibility with their music because the shyt was too grimy and hard. This would explain the differences in album sales in my opinion.

However, growing up, I heard Wu EVERYWHERE in the streets, but then again I grew up in a place where east coast hip hop was all that existed in the minds of the populace. Bone Thugs was only really heard on TV/radio, and it was the kind of music mothers were listening to.

All this being said, Wu-Tang has left a greater legacy in hip hop over time, imo. If you walked down the street and asked ten 45 year old white women about Bone Thugs and Wu-Tang, I bet you that more of them would recognize Wu-Tang's name than Bone Thugs and Harmony (unless you started singing Crossroads).

 

[CHERUB]

Bone bout to be on Oprah in a few days. They cemented now

 

[ZEB WALTON]

Way easier to do when u all signed to no limit. Try again whth major signed artists. And no bullshyt stickers saying "also on this record: mystikal!"

U trying too hard. Bringing up albums sold out ps trunk.

 

[SirBiatch]

In recent times, ASAP Rocky gave Bone brief relevance due to his brilliant music. Like 3-6 Mafia, Bone are a forgotten group that nobody really gives a fukk about unless you've got some sorta coastal insecurity. Their discogs are trash and they easily fade into obsolescence until a far better rapper adapts their style, outdoes them on some Biggie shyt, and shouts them out. Rocky did them all a favor
