Bone Thugs-N-Harmony - Gangsta's Glory
Artist: Bone Thugs-N-Harmony
Producer: Matt Velo
Album: Uni5: The World's Enemy
Label: BNTH Worldwide/Warner Bros.
Some artists are destined for a long career in the music industry (Madonna, Snoop Dogg, etc.) and some are not (N’Sync, New Boyz, etc.). I think we all know which side of that equation Bone Thugs N’ Harmony fall on. More than a decade ago, when I first started listening to BTHN, I had no idea I’d someday be writing an introduction to their latest prospective single, Gangsta’s Glory; and yet here I am. Backed by a retro, laid back beat (contributed by Matt Velo) and a sampled feature from the eternal Eazy E, on Gangsta’s Glory the Bone brothers deliver an old school vibe on the dangers of the modern day ghetto life. Each member puts forth the same energy and creativity that we’ve heard from them since they began in ’91, but will audiences still feel love for BTNH after so many years? We’ll find out soon. If you liked this track be sure to be on the lookout for their newest album, Uni5: The World’s Enemy, dropping in late March.

I like it, but its not going to be a hit single. And they need a hit single in order to FINALLY drop this new album. Please please please, pick another record to be the single. If I am wrong, tell me so.

No one sounds like Bone Thugs, they're flow is still dope after a decade. As for the song, it was dope but this seems obvious that it's only for the album. Hope this is just a street single.

This is a great song in its own right but I do agree they need a better "single." But thats not taking away from this at all, because all of their flows were dope and that sample is perfect for this.

Arguably the best rap group in history but their old-school flow doesn't translate to radio these days...they need something more up-beat

I do't think its supossed to be a single. This isn't for the masses or the faint of heart. Its for the streets, and anybody that can relate to that lifestyle will enjoy this track. For me, Bone Thugs are back in business.

This is quinessential BTNH especially with the Eazy sample. I hope the Scarface isn't lost on the younger listeners. No, this may not be a radio single but I hope that it does get radio play because it's a message for the the BG's and YG's that needs to be heard. This song has shown how these Bone Thugs n Harmony have made the journey from Boyz to Men...literally.

Eazy's voice alone makes me like this song. This is cool all around, has anyone heard any news on Bizzy?

I recently had the chance to kick it with BTNH recently, and despite the fact that a couple of them were so high they could barely speak (I'm not gonna say who) they seemed committed to making new, dope music.
With that said, I'm gonna have to give this one a couple spins before I decided. It's quality but it's not blowing me away on the first listen. |

This did not wow me away either,maybe because I haven't heard no real gangsta music in a long time... I am glad the Thugs n Harmony is back...and I remember this sound...there aren't alot of gangsta sounds out so it may bring that gangsta beat back...I agree for todays sound its laid back, I had to listen to it again, bfor my feet to start tapping@ ROCKING wit it...the lyrics are fly....it might just be what the summer needs..

Typical BTNH-fair and that’s not a bad thing at all. They excels at these kinds of songs, providing street knowledge with rhythmic flows. Agree with folks it's missing that commercial sounding flavor to be the first single. Rotation fa sho!

The early 90's are back (through this song).
Album should be good. |

Really like the song we cant expect something bad from bonethugs if they still on the same type of music! (gangsta rap) loved all the verses, wish slowed down the flow, my least favorite verse but doesnt kill the song... the chorus could have been wayy better!! i dont like repetitive chourses but its ight since eazy on it lol pretty good 4stars for coming back after so long. doing what they suppose to!

Lovin this song, but the other two Vegas and Gone, ehhh not so much. Gone is similar to their old style from Art of War, not as hard but similar. And Vegas, I don't hate it but I'm not likin it, and the only reason I will shell out the dough is because I love my Bone Thugs.
