Life changing.
World-altering.

That's how this joint felt.

And my mind was blown, because it was on a bump it or dump it segment, and lost to JV's Naybahood Queen.

No disrespect to JV, because I liked that song, it wasn't fucking with Thuggish Ruggish Bone in any way, shape or form.

And looking back, while both songs are firmly in their era production wise, NQ sounds about two years late sonically.

Conversely, The Thuggish Ruggish Bone beat turned that g-funk synth lead on it's head with an iconic riff. Even the intro to that song, those first few notes, are setting you up for something big.

And goddamn did it deliver.

Because I haven't even touched on the MC's themselves.

Again, no diss to JV. But BTNH felt new, powerful, and game changing.

Look, this isn't the place for the Freestyle Fellowship talk. There's always one of you cats lurking to pounce on a Bone discussion, and I'm not just talking OKP. This ain't the place for that discussion.

I know Bone won in the big picture, but I'm still salty as fuck that Thuggish Ruggish Bone lost a bump it or dump it segment to Naybahood Queen.
