Layzie Bone: Biggie Copied Us, Pac’s Thug Nation, Real Eazy E & Wu-Tang Fight

Layzie Bone pulled up to ALL THE SMOKE for a legendary conversation about one of the most influential rap groups ever. From reuniting Bone Thugs-N-Harmony today to breaking down their impact on hip-hop, this episode is packed with stories that shaped an entire era. Layzie takes us back to Cleveland, talks about being homeless while making a platinum album, and opens up about Bizzy Bone’s kidnapping and the chaos that surrounded the group in their early days. He shares memories of working with icons like Eazy E, Mariah Carey, Biggie, and Tupac, and gives us the inside story on classic tracks like Notorious Thugs and First of the Month.

We also get into a Christmas party run-in the crew had with Wu-Tang Clan, his thoughts on the greatest rap groups ever, and the journey from the streets to winning a Grammy. This is hip-hop history told by one of the architects.
