How do you think the original compares to the Bone Thug version?

Bone Thugs version is way better. It's weird hearing ppl rap over it with a slow flow when you have heard the Bone Thugs flow over it for years. Plus it was one of the songs that put them on the map (along with Thuggish Ruggish Bone). Amazing track.
Man I gotta bust out some old BTNH I always forget how dope they were in their prime. Thuggish Ruggish Bone, Look Into My Eyes, Dayz Of Our Livez, Thug Luv, Notorious Thugs, Fiirst of Da Month, If I Could Teach The World, Crossroads, Breakdown with Mariah, Resurrection Paper Paper, Mo Thugs Ghetto Cowboy, and the list goes on!
-
yeah but this song came out 3 years before bone. Kinda fucked up that it didn't become a hit until bone remade it.
-
Kinda hard to get into the OG after knowing the BONE version, especially when they used the same hook.

^ lol, same here now that you mention it.

I never knew that Jewell was on the hook. Does sound like her.

i know this.
cause i bout the cd when it came out.
then when the BTNH version came out, i was like, "aint this been done b4 by yomo and maulkie?".

wtf!? I had no idea about this. Also never heard of these guys.

my point exactly ;)
DJ Yella produced their album
-
i always knew that NWA always worked with each other behind the scenes and alotta/most of that shit was all hype. yeah, Eazy might've fucked Cube & Dre outta some money but why didn't Ren and Yella leave too. At the end of the day, they probably all worked it out behind closed doors with the money, u know Eazy broke em off with something extra; and used the drama/issue to turn it in2 something bigger and it worked. The Deep Cover soundtrack, Jewell, this song right here. But i wouldn't doubt if the DPG/BGKNO&GD had some real exchange of words tho (to a certain degree).

Maulkie replaced J Dee in Da Lench Mob for their 2nd album.
I showed this to the homie last week and he was tripping off it. I've had this song for a long time but haven't listened to it but a few times. Bone and Eazy dropped classic verses. I always loved the beat, with it being made in 91 it still sounds fresh

I didn't either til a couple weeks ago. But I figured you west coast heads would be up on an album executive produced by Eazy
-
well it came out when I was 8, plus I was never a big ruthless fan. But props for posting.
-
Very interesting, +1 for the post. Can't necessarily say it's "better or worse" than the BTNH version, but a totally different vibe to it. Mos def have to get this album now.

It's a shame that so much of the Ruthless catalog is still out of print, even after several years of them saying it would be re-released. There's a lot of great stuff that the younger fans have probably never heard. Eazy had more than 30 different acts signed to his label at the time of his death. Between what hasn't been released at all and what has been out of print for years, there's a lot of stuff that people aren't getting to hear.

Yea Bone's version is better but this OG flow bings back good memories 8)

i guess that was the downside of the several distribution deals.
but you seem to forget the power of the internet :D

its not fucked up at all, their version sounds way better

The original is nice and would be one of the best songs of the year if it came out in 2010, but the Bone version shits all over the Yomo version.

Yeah. I have physical copies of most of the Ruthless Records releases, but there were some that I even needed to rely on the internet for. Yomo and Maulkie's album is actually one of them. Also, for those who hadn't heard, Pistol's album on Ruthless, "Hittin' Like a Bullet" has been re-mastered and re-released by Street Flavor Records. It was originally released by Ruthless/Relativity and is one of the more obscure Ruthless albums to get re-released. You can check it out here:
http://www.amazon.com/Hittin-Bullet-Digital-Remaster-Explicit/dp/B002OHS6F8/ref=sr_1_43?ie=UTF8&s=dmusic&qid=1272489183&sr=1-43
Now they just need to re-release the albums from Above the Law, MC Ren, Blood of Abraham, Kokane, Penthouse Players Clique, Steffon, Tab and Da Villain, Frost, and more than a dozen others. lol
-
yeah, the fact that even ( some) MC Ren albums are out of stock is weird
-
I'm gonna go on a limb and say the OG is better to me, I even heard it way before the Bone version (but that was because I was sleeping on Bone's first release).And me saying that I prefer it does not mean it's better, because that is not true
