Bone Thugs N-Harmony have also released a new album (Stength and Loyalty featuring Swizz Beats, Mariah Carey, Akon, and others) this year, to great critical and commercial success. "Blessed are those who hear the words and follow them. It's a manual for rappers and thug people." - Layzie Bone speaking about the Wordz from the Street project "God bless you workin' on a plan to heaven Follow the Lord all 24/7 days God is who we praise even though the devils all up in my face But he's kepping me safe and in my place save grace For the case to race with a chance to face the judge" - from Tha Crossroads   cover story: FADER MAGAZINE Fader recently featured Bone Thugs N-Harmony on the cover and referred to them as "the new spiritualists." back to Layzie's Page |
