Behind about a dozen of their own songs, much less about 1,000 other artists'.

I have friends who love that song, I have always thought it wasn't as good when compared to the entire E. 1999 Eternal album.

Well technically, it is sung by Mo Thugs, which involved more people then just Bone-Thugz.

So really it is almost not a Bone-Thugz song, if you want to get technical and shite.

The life/popularity of a rap song is so much shorter than other genres it seems. But this song never gets old. I'd agree with Top 50 rap song of all time.

Mo Thugs were ok. E. 1999 is one of my all time favorite albums. I need to find it.

Did any of y'all listen to Graveyard Soldjas? I think they were out of New Orleans and one of them was related to bizzy.

Ghetto cowboy is great. Still gets regular play on shuffle.

Brings back memories of high school.

Another jam from that album was ''it's all good''

I think it's an absolutely amazing song, but I don't know that it has a place in rap history in the same way a song like "Juicy"* has a place in rap history.

It's a quirkily great song, and I would put it in my top 50 rap songs of all time.* But other than the fact that it's a good song, I don't see it having any historical significance in the rap game.


*Just an example
**But I wouldn't put it in my top 25.

I will apprecaite Bone Thugs so much more after their Bogies concert earlier this year...

2 Thugs are better than none and the 2 were pretty sweet.

How many horses do you have to steal to be known as a horse stealer? Seems like 1 would be enough.
