This Bone and Biggie is a classic.....you guys should consider a reaction to Bone and Tupac's thug love. It is amazing!!
Have you done “so many tears” by Tupac?
Did you know that Bone thugs all recorded their versus in studio and biggie took it home to write his part. Bone thugs never heard his verse until after he died and album was released
That was awesome !
What do you think about Only God can judge me by 2pac
I'm sure your dad will like it
Backstory: Biggie stepped in the booth with Bone and was so amazed by their verses, that after the studio session, he took the beat home, studied Bones flow for a few days, then write and rap his verse. It’s a different BIG! Inspired by Bone! (Ryan B)
Nice, good piece of knowledge there brother
Definitely! U cud tell he summoned his inner Bone 🍖
And Bone Thugs never heard Biggie's verse until the album came out

I don't care what anybody says... The intro to this song with Bone singing on beat, and the background chimes... still raises the hairs on my neck and arms!!! And when BIG comes in!!!
The day that this dropped... Instant club banger! I will never forget the sight of the different dance floors when this jam started!!
This song is what I start every gym session with to this day!
This isn’t a club dance song
@@PoopythePlumber not current day clubs
Everytime 💯😪🙏🥵
@@PoopythePlumber 🤣🤣🤣 WHEN THIS SONG CAME OUT... it was in EVERY CLUB. If you don't know... why comment?
Pops a real one for catching that “so called beef with you know who” line 💯💪🏾
Definitely 💪🏾 💯
Well, his dad was a young man when these songs were coming out. Big's verse is not hard to understand, like Bone's.
@@jasonito23 he said in earlier videos he didn’t listen to rap until his son started this with him. So he didn’t have a clue about these 2 and the beef until his son led him into this video, which is why it’s impressive that he caught the line.
He's really paying attention. Love these guys
Dad is an OG
Layzie’s verse gets overlooked but man.. he killed that
Did it in 1 take after having a nap then went back to sleep 🤣
Facts
Absolutely! Bizzy Bone came off strong, but Layzie Bone killed it man. His verse pumps me up every time. Props to Krayzie Bone too!
Best verse other than Biggies
To me Layzie is the best
2nd is Krayzie, 3rd Wish then its Bizzy
Bone is the only group to have recorded songs in the studio with Eazy-E, 2pac, Notorious BIG, and Big Pun
they had the neutrality of switzerland within the rap game gawd damn
They was like we may be from the mid-west, but we ain't getting in the MIDDLE of shit!
😂 😂 😂
Legendary💯
They have sang with RZO, a Brazilian rap band!
@oraakkeli yes. I guess because they’re from the Midwest. 🎉
Do you know what crazy. As soon as your father said, “Oh, it 2Pac and Biggie.” I didn’t judge him at all because after all these years I never thought to myself that “Notorious Thugs” would’ve been a perfect title for a 2Pac and B.I.G. album. Great guess Dad.
lol true it would have been a perfect title for them too, never thought of it this way
Yeah, they are at least in my books two of the most notorious thugs 🤣
tru dat
I literally thought the same when he said that!! Not surprised to see a comment like this
That was a really good guess
The way pops reacted to Bizzy starting his verse and how he acknowledged the Krayzie flow switch were my favorite parts of the reaction.
Same!
Yep, totally :)
Pops is one of us lol he automatically liked Bone. Looking forward to future reactions
This is only my second video I’ve seen of these two and pops seems to know about music.
Exactly! He has good taste and a good ear.
Shout to Stevie J for making one of the dopest beats in Hip Hop History. Fit for right Lyricists
Stevie J from love & hip hop?
@@ChanelEbanks yes
100%
He also produced Breakdown for Mariah which features a few Bones on it, he used to be such a talented producer.
Yeah he doesn’t get enough credit. He produced a lot of amazing songs. Dave Hollister’s Favorite Girl.
Your dad innocently calling Bone thugs “The Bone thugs boys” 😊😂😂
Almost got their original name
The band aid boys
Hahahaha did he?!
Earlier he called them “bone thangs” and I just died😂😂😂😂
Gotta love a dad who puts up with it though nd for understanding the content
😂
Bizzy and Krayzie Bone are musical geniuses and some of the most talented artist
100
FORSURE
The fact that I, as a (then)16 y/o Swedish girl knew all the words to this track is both telling of its impact and absolutely hilarious 😂 (cut to today, still knowing every word and "singing" along😎)
No way you can recite every word that's insane
Yeah, I was 16 when it came out too. But how the hell do you know all of the words? Lol. I can't keep up with Bone. 😥
Bizzy did his verse in one take.
And Krayzie was sleeping on the couch ... They woke him up, he entered the booth, layed his verse in one take too and went back to sleep 🤣🤣🤣
@@AlongVC65 history and legend collide
@@AlongVC65 And Diddy told Flesh to kick rocks on doing his verse because the song was already too long..smh..it is what it is.
@@04swiftstang Wish not on it too
@@04swiftstang I was always wondering why Flesh isn't on the the song.. got any source?
“Verbal acrobatics” that was a spot on description of this song. He definitely nailed that one on the head
Cant think of another song where that description fits any better
@@oraakkeli Exactly! Lol I can’t neither
@@oraakkeli Really? MOST Bone songs are. Lol
Bone didn’t hear Biggie’s verse until the album came out. Big took the beat home and rewrote his verse to match Bone’s flow.
Now it’s time for “Thug Luv” - Bone Thugs and Tupac…
Can’t wait for that one…👍👍👍
YESSS
My favourite rap song by far. First heard when I was like 13, now 33, nothing comes close.
Biggie switching his flow to mesh with bone, bizzys flow and range, going high to low, "beg my pardon to Martin, we ain't marching we shooting". Krays speed and layzies delivery, along with the production and hook makes it absolutely timeless.
33 years old here too. I wish I had my original iPods and hard drives so I could find all the music I had. Took a break from rap because I couldn't find anything new that I can listen to.
@@chinqlinq89 same same bro, not a fan of the newer rap scene, but there are a few gems, JiD and J Cole are great and Kendrick of course.
Old Wu-Tang is still fire.
Lately I been on Childish Gambino, dude is an artist.
I was 14 when this came out, freshman in high school... couldn't of been a better time to listen to this banger!!! 🔥
As a die hard bone thugs fan I’m really looking forward to this 🤩
Yes
90's rap was the best era ! My high school days, gotta love it!
My middle school days...what a time!!!!
Early 2000’s 🐐
100%
*One of the best beat builds in the history of hip hop*
Bizzy's verse 🔥🔥🔥 we're probably talking about the best technical verse of all time ... Funny how people always react the same way when they hear bizzy's verse ... Genius at work
This song is special, a brilliant build up, remarkable display of cadence in their flows…I can’t wait to watch
Song is super complex all the way through, from the music to the flows , to the riding of the beat. Super dope !! Classic in so many ways
I love that long ass intro of this song - it creates so much tension and anticipation and then, boom, BIG comes out of fkn nowhere and goes absolutely stupid, snaps on that totally unexpected Bone Thugs flow. Whoever produced this joint (might have been DJ Uneek) is a genius.
Stevie J
You said it PERFECTLY!!
I still get chills when Bizzy says "you ready to die? We'll see"
HEAVY line that can go unnoticed if you’re not paying attention..
Thank you for doing this. I’ve loved this song my whole life. It was my brother’s favorite song, he passed away in July and when I hear this song now, I get emotional. 🥹
Very sorry to hear that, Brina. Hope everyone is doing okay. - Kai’s dad
My condolences to you and your family. I pray for your comfort and peace during this difficult time. May your brother's legacy live on through positive memories such as when you hear this song. I hope the pain eases every day.
@@frontroom thank you so much🫶🏾

Me too. Forever a banger.
@@5ft3VanillaMami Yes!
Personally the best review yet
Father and son head bobbing to the beat at the same time
Epic
Biggie came with the double time flow, we had never heard him do that. That verse is one of best ever. Stevie J was a great producer before he became a reality TV star .
For those of us who were teenagers when this came out.. This was what we were playing in our cd players and bumpin out of our cars back then. Everyone was. And I was in Seattle. I'm sure it was similar around the country.
Now it’s almost mandatory that you do a reaction to ‘Thug Love’ (Bone Thugs & 2Pac). 😎
I remember the weekend big died that next day or that weekend the radio stations in LA were playing his song "Going back to Cali", I remember like it was yesterday and there was a really eerie feeling in the air that weekend.
This is a masterpiece/classic ✅ Stevie J. is known for nonsense today, but he produced the hell out of some of our favorite artists' albums in the 90s. Mariah Carey considers her Butterfly album from 1997 to be her magnum opus. My favorite album cut is 'Breakdown' ft Bone Thugs. She also speeds up her singing to mimic their rapping style. Worth a listen.
Yes! Love that song!!
Underrated Classic
Breakdown changed R& B/Pop. After that dropped almost all of the singers mimicked that style in their songs.
Biggie switched up his flow SEVEN times !!!
And killed it!!!
Kai and dad bridging the generational gap for sure..💯
Your dad is such a open minded person. You can see the kid in him still that he has passed to you as well. You two are blessed. Keep it up RIP BIG shit he goes hard in the beginning.
Biggie’s ‘life after death’ was released March 25, 1997. Just sixteen (16) days after he was killed. So so sad, Biggie is so very missed ❤️ Also, the guys of Bone Thugs n’ Harmony didn’t get to hear Big’s verse until after he died and his album was released.
“Life after death” was a double album because about six months before his death Big, Lil’ Cease, and Charli Baltimore (a female rapper Big was dating when he died) were in a really bad car accident. Cease lost control of a rental car in the rain and the car spun out onto the other side of the highway and flipped several times. Cease (was driving) lost most of, if not all of his front teeth from smashing his mouth into the steering wheel and was thrown out of the car. Charli was partially thrown out of the car, she landed on the hood with a head injury which split her scalp open and a huge flap was hanging (they were able to stitch it up but she said if she ever had to shave her head, that it is a very large and nasty looking scar, but she thankfully was okay, no brain damage) and Big was front seat passenger and his leg got crushed under the dash board and they had to use the jaws of life to get him out. Big’s leg was broken in several places and he had to stay in the hospital/rehabilitation unit after having surgery to place plates & screws to fix his leg. So in that two months of doing physical therapy after surgery he just wrote and wrote. Big’s leg was still messed up when he was in California (before his death) and that is why he walked with a cane. Some Cali people were irritated by it thinking he was using it to look like a pimp or something because they didn’t know he had been in an accident. I don’t think any of his family, friends, or fans would want Big to be in a nasty car accident like he was, but it always made me think, what if he hadn’t been in the accident!?! ‘Life after death’ would’ve been a regular 10ish song album and he would’ve died before we heard some of the most amazing and classic Biggie songs!
-some of Big’s people said the accident happened 24-48 hours after Big found out Tupac died. That Big was really upset over his death and was smoking and acting the fool, and ended up getting arrested and their vehicle towed. The car they got out of the tow impound was messed up so they took it to the dealer to be fixed and was given the rental (that they ended up crashing) to drive in the meantime.
Bigs flow on this track was insane it showed his versatility how he jumped on a track with them and busted out there flow 🙏🏾 RIP BIG
I listen to this song everyday , I love it so muchhhhh , i’m happy you guys liked it ❤️‼️
This is my go to.
Are you single sweetheart?
@@williamforsythe9180 Yeah but not presently looking. Thanks though!
@@tafan321 not you
@@prttyteetee 💀
This shows why Bizzy is the greatest rapper of all time. The singing, the rapid fire, the aggressiveness, the lyrics "Beggin my pardon to Martin, we ain't marching, we shooting" damn!!!!
My favorite line in the whole song. His verse is the best
My favorite line.
He lost his voice
@@RONPEE-STINGER no he hasn't, he just released another album with his sons last month.
@@kheldarm2197 so what he doesn't sound the same
Regarding Bone Thugs, it's crazy to me how some of the best flowing rappers ever came together at the same time in Cleveland and while they've influenced lots of rappers, it's never been close to duplicated.
Never.
I mean to be real, their flows were originally inspired (some might say copied) by Memphis Rappers. They been doing that stuff years before Bone Thugs, there was a whole beef about this topic at the time. Look up "Thuggish Ruggish Bustaz" for example by Tommy Wright
No disrespect, they took Hip Hop and its sound to a whole next level, but lets also give respect where it's due.
Not only that, the way they pioneered harmony, vocalization, and melody within hip-hop (that, so many artists attempt to emulate today) is constantly undermined and overlooked to this day.
I agree! Twister was fast or whatever, but nothing like Bone Thugs style and brand. They’re amazing.
@@DonDadda45 'The Scarecrow Melody'
So happy you did this track, one of the greatest of all time. Still one of my favourite tracks to this day. Much love from Australia guys
I don't think it can be stated enough, it is so refreshing to see an older adult appreciate music that isnt exactly what he grew up on. I know a lot of people who stick to what they know. He's so open and kind and i just love this. ❤️
I love how close captioning was keeping up and then just completely gave up when the second verse started lol. 🤣
LMAO
I was in high school when this came out. Taking the bus to and from and this low rider would cruise up every day bumping this track. For weeks on repeat. It was the s***.
wow, what a memory to have. Nice. I think if it were me being the driver in your story, it would have made me feel so good to know someone had me as a memory blasting my favorite song on repeat on my way to work every day. That's awesome.
I'll keep saying it..........Your Father is awesome, so open minded to the beauty of the culture and to learn from it, Amazing!!!!!. On a side note I think you need to let him hear E-40's flow he'll be mesmerised!.
Man. My father passed away when I was 23. Watching you two, and your relationship makes me so happy. So very jealous, but so very happy. Keep up the amazing work. Hoping I get to listen to music again with my father one day. Thank you.
Bizzy's flow was so layered its taken me yrs! "Triple 6 rivals (not about the rap group) & "start em off little & give em a Bible a pen & a pad to get in their head to Kick the devil"
I mean WOW!!!
Bone thugs, Twista, do or die, tech n9ne...loving the beginning of some Midwest speed rappers.
This is one of my all time favorites. Love that you did this -- I've been waiting.
THE MOB ASK AND WE RECEIVED A GEM OF A REACTION 😁
I've been waiting on this reaction I absolutely loved love love this reaction. This is one of the BEST collaborations EVER! THANKS A BUNCH!
Tonight I made the decision to subscribe to your channel officially. I've been watching without subscribing following your dad's progression and his reaction and comments to notorious thugs sold me. I'm jealous of the relationship between you and your pops. It appears you actually understand how amazing it is yourself Young man. I'm going to keep watching
YES!!! Been waiting for this!!
Best rap collab of all-time!
It’s thoroughly warming seeing your dad’s appreciation for these classics. Both of your reactions here are nourishing to all connoisseurs of this music.
In all my years, i have never heard this song. It was so good. Wow
Im 35, One of my favorite songs growing up. Hands down.
*H Town luv*
Bone’s story, particularly Bizzy’s, is very intriguing, quite heartbreaking. Would love to see you two dice deeper into his and Left Eye’s lives. Bizzy performing live was like nothing else I’ve ever seen.
Your dad is a real scholar, associating “thugs” with Tupac.
Great reaction, dudes.
"Days of our lives" and "shoot em up" are 2 great songs you should check out
Yesss! I was waiting for y'all to choose this one! After hearing them apart you just had to hear them together!!!!
Amazing track! One of my favorite ever. Wonderful reaction, love your Dad facial expressions when the change of flows came up.
I know, Dad is down for Bone Thugs more than Biggie u can tell.
Words can't explain how much I love Bone Thugs.
My husband and I love watching the dynamic between you two. We are "dad's" age with kids the same age as kai, but grew up on what the son shows the father...genius interaction, we love y'all!
Thank you guys for reacting to this Banger !!!! It's one of my favourite B.I.G song in I was so hyped at work to get home too see this Video. Thank you sooooo much for making my day
this is my favorite song forever and ever and ever and ever, thank you for doing what you do! i love your channel so much, love the connection between you two. family is everything, missing mine right now! feeling very grateful :)
Stevie J produced this 🤯
Bone laid their verses on the spot after being drunk and high. They had to wake them up to record. Biggie took it home. Bone didn't hear the finished product until after biggie passed.
been waiting for this!!!!
My all time #1 song and I've never smiled so much seeing your dad reacting to each verse, every flow change etc. Brilliant video!
I remember the first time I heard this. Bought the album the day it came out. Time does fly by.
“It’s Biggie and Tupac, together!”
Epic! 🤣
Great commentary and reactions once again 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I have been waiting for you guys to react to this song. One of my all-time favorites for sure.
I have this song on my car and listen to it everyday and open my windows up to show everybody that this type of songs are untouchable and a timeless classics that can't be touched, the 90's was the best era for hip hop and rap. I play the song loud when I open my windows.
They use to smoke weed on my porch with my cousin happy I got to come outside and meet them from Cleveland periodt hands down I still Lenten to this song know all the words
i think this is my all time favorite song!im so glad for this reaction.good job guys!!!
YES, I have been waiting for this one.
This song is a masterpiece. Everything about it is 10/10
I haven't heard this song in over 12 years and somehow I can still rap along to every word!
Some childhood songs never leave you!
Just have to sa this, as a graphic designer in the music industry my whole life is album covers! Seeing you and your father actually respond and take the time to discuss things like the cover art is awesome and very much appreciated by alot of u in the community! Thanks and much love.
One of my favorite songs by them ❤❤ loved the reaction
I can't wait, big fan of Bone Thugs
I cant wait to see you guys react to one of the best rap songs that were ever made 😂👌🏽 Also thanks for your reactions.. people like you two really give me back faith in humanity.
These guys are by far my favorite team to listen to for reactions!!
you guys are both great - great selections and reactions!
They were serving up the goosebumps with this one…🙌🙌🙌
Chills!! I’ve been going back through the Bone Thug albums all week, such a warm blast from the past 🔥🔥🔥
It’s been awhile since I listened to this songs and kept getting chills lol. Love it
Great videos guys love it, 1 of my favourite rap tracks legendary 🙌
It makes my heart smile to see you and your Dad bond over a love and appreciation of music. This is genuinely so beautiful. God blesss! ♥️
Also love how your dad moves to the song, he is digging it.
This was a fire one for sure. The natural follow up to this gotta be thug luv. I love both but i cant lie, the composition and delivery in thug luv is one of the most rememberable moments of that era. I was teen living in sweden when this came out and i was banging this so hard i had track on repeat in my walkman, recorded back to back thru the entire cassettetape 💪
Been waiting for this song for some time. I knew you would introduce him to this one it was only a matter of time
Yeeeeeeees! I was looking forward to this song!
I love this song,especially biggies flow in his opening, I also admire the way you both listen and appreciate the background instrumentation. in the songs.great reaction guys. Miracles and blessings to you and yours please continue tobridging the generation gap,by sharing music. ✌️💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜.
Appreciate That Pops is resonating with different flows and cadences now. He's now a true Hip-Hop Head
