Of all the rappers who got dubbed gangsta rappers in the '90s, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony were one of the more unusual. The five emcees brought a rapid-fire flow that danced in the realm of singing. Even while they rapped a mile a minute and rarely wrote choruses, they managed to churn out some singles. They still play nowadays, but sporadically. Krayzie Bone, however, enjoys an active solo career, with five solo albums and several collaborations under his belt. His guest verse on Chamillionaire's "Ridin'" won him his second Grammy. His first was for Bone Thugs-n-Harmony's Eazy-E tribute, "Tha Crossroads." Nowadays, with all the young rappers Bone Thugs-n-Harmony helped influence, Krayzie's fast-chopping, rap-sing style doesn't seem out of place.
