At the time of “Thug Mentality 1999″‘s release, Krayzie was hard at work establishing his ThugLine Records imprint, and many of the songs serve as introductions to his artists. Krayzie Bone had already explored the double-LP format with his group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony on 1997’s successful “The Art of War,” and two years later he returned with his first solo effort “Thug Mentality 1999.” As you might expect, guests are quite frequent and range from bona fide superstars (Treach, 8Ball & MJG, Snoop Dogg, Kurupt, Fat Joe, Big Pun, Cuban Link, Mariah Carey, E-40, Gangsta Boo, The Marley Brothers, and the rest of BTNH) to his underwhelming protégés (Bam, Relay, Niko, Knieght Rieduz, K-Mont, Asu, GraveYard Shift, Up In Clouds, Thug Queen, Mo!Hart, and Felecia). Thus we got “MP da Last Don,” “Wu-Tang Forever,” “Lost,” “The Element of Surprise,” “Kuruption!,” “Thugged Out: The Albulation,” and “My Homies”—good albums for the most part with inexcusable filler, bloated running times, unnecessary guest appearances, and worthless skits. After the runaway success of “All Eyez on Me” and “Life After Death,” the mindset seemed to be that given rappers’ high demand, they could put out epic two-disc packages of unfiltered studio sessions, charge somewhere in the twenty-dollar range for them, and go platinum moving half as many units as normally needed. Ya'll can't fuck wit the thuggish ruggish (ruggish) bone bone bone bone.Double-albums were the bane of gangsta rap in the late-90s. Now I gotta run witta me shotgun, bottom line it's on When im stalkin that foolz, walking jack moves. Yes, these days is still the same like, gotta make that money man.īang gotta get down for my thang,and i do it so smooth. We don't stop, we gon pop shots still to the double Glock Glock, You don't really want to get involved wit da murder.īut shit if ya want it we got it, we bringing it! Hot heat could burn ya, learn ya, stay out it if it don't concern ya. I figured it out, it's all real, if aint then it aint right.Ĭome on, if you wanna feel the v and it's real, Steady runnin wit the weapons cause it's gettin better. My lordy lord maintain,it's hard, cause im a souljah at war.
