Takes me back to selling oregano as weed and rock salt as meth in middle school. Actually meet a good friend because he sold the salt meth to someone else for more money. The days though...
His flow here has a Native American vibe So many styles And he actually is making sense with story telling. This man is seriously a music genius , im not even complimenting him. He IS a sound genius
Saved up my lunch money to buy this album, I could go toe to toe with anyone with Krayzie lyrics, he is the best that ever did it, his rap sheet was long, meaningful, understandable, lyrical, flow was next to none, could switch it up at any given time and best of all, he rides the beat like no other, he perfected the craft.
ROMAIN WHITE I feel you. I been bumping Krayzie since Thuggish Ruggish. Krayzie verse was like my Crack! Couldn't wait until the next album to see what the next verse was going to be like. From album to album. The way a Verse is delivered NOBODY NOBODY!!! CAN FUCK WITH Kray
ROMAIN WHITE There are better lyricists around, Big L, Eminem & Big Pun for example but everything else you said is true. He's my favorite rapper all time alongside Bizzy and Eminem.
What a clever way to sample the candy man. Krayzie bone so underrated and will probably never get the recognition he deserves which is a shame. Living legend!
I was in the back 3rd row in a 90s Ford expedition, sitting next to my best friend (rip) smoking weed while others in the car, with a banging system, the dummy man sketch came on first and we was like what? And then the beat kicked in and Krayzie did his thing I was blown away by this song, just saying when u high and you're sitting in the back row where the bass speakers are at, holy moly , not only do I feel the song but the bass puts u in a feeling, like I was mind controlled or something it was a feeling I won't forget
Don't matter where you come from, the way the story is told is like right out of a movie, picture that scene in your head as he's telling the story, what a crazy scenario.
Absolutely underrated as a story teller, he has so many great story telling verses from Creepin, e.1999 (down 71 getaway is so dope) and the rest of the albums
Because it’s real.. I’m from Cleveland and my cousin was asking me if I had orajel to make some dummy’s back when e1999 eternal was first out..I know first hand that this was goin on in Cleveland
This beat is so sick, the flow is so pure. I swear Bone Thugs and Krayzie especially can take any fuckin beat and come up with the perfect cadence and flow to go with it. I have heard them freestyle and they just go so hard and off top can fit any beat put in front of them.
If you never lived it then it is understandable why it’s not as appreciated this is by far ONE of the hardest songs of all time due to top to bottom how he put this shit together and actually being somebody who actually lived this verse at a point in my life Krazy was crazy for this one
The flow, the ambient sounds behind the spitting, the beat.....man if the lyrics just MEANT something more important than selling fake drugs LMAO. This is what I'd call a "beautiful" rap track....Straight BONE through and through...we need more of this talent these days.
He's conflicted in selling fake drugs, but he has to - he doesn't remember the last time he ate. He put his life on the life selling dum dums - I'd say there's some substance to the lyrics
@@vincent21212 they dont understand cause they never been in those positions where sellling work is the easiest come up as its whats within reach at the moment and when that wsnt even within reach he could fake that because its me before the next man
The next part is the best " This is what happened to this biiiitch/ We beat him and finished him off and he never came 'round here no more/ 'Cause he ran into yours, truly poor and a nigga scored"
I was on my way from middle school to a freshman in high school This song was so catchy and kbone is one of the best members of bone 💀thugs ,this album is classic
Its been at least 10 years since I've listened to this album yet as soon as a song starts I can sing along instantly, every word (except when he spits 30 words in 2 seconds).
I won this album at an old hair store in buffalo from our station. I let my uncle hear this and he took it because I stayed at my grandparents lol. Give it back when I was 14. My favorite track
when I got this cd I used to skip over the track all the time till one day on was playin NBA Live listening to the whole cd n that when I find out that this was one my favorites.
like the way he writes his raps, you neva know whats comin next. keeps ya listening, cant say im a fan of cussing though. great rapper and talent just the same though.
Chorus: They call me the "Dummy Man" (man, man, man) And I'm up early tryina slang my dope (I'm the nigga with the biggest rocks) The fiends...they get awfully mad....(mad, mad, mad) When they go broke on dope and it's really soap (My nigga you ain't never lied) Verse 1: Up in the morning....and I feel like I don't wanna be livin' Better off dead without no bread....have you ever felt that feeling? Unsatisfied, feelin' like you wanna die When you reach into your pocket and can't even find Not even enough to go purchase a dime (sack of weed) But FUCK THAT! I got "come up" in my blood Cause it's the "1st of the Month" (nigga what!) The perfect time to come up The only problem is: I'm broke and ain't got no dope But as I was standin' in my bathroom mirror....I looked at the soap Shit...soap look a little like dope (you scandalous nigga!) Then, I chopped-chopped up me some counterfeit amphetamines But wait a minute..... Wait a minute now...what if they want to taste it? Think quickly for cash: nigga dash to the kitchen, get the bread bag Wrap that bread around some soap Now I got the breadcrumb-dum-dum dope It might sound funny, but it ain't no joke... Cause doin this shit could get a nigga smoked, mayn But FUCK IT! Young nigga gotta get them duckets Hit the medicine cabinet for the final touches... Orajel for the numbness Then I hit the corner with a handful of breadcrumbs... Nigga got the dum-dum for ya And the pump on approach if you say it ain't dope Only dealin cause I hate to be sober Peep, "creep on ah come up", I wait for a fiend to roll up And walk to the car with my hand on my pistol He showed me the green, said "Hold up...gotta get my stash" Nigga need a 20...but I got that faded Lovin these yum-yums, glad I made it; I just hope this nigga don't try to taste it! I dropped him the dummy, he said it was lovely But as he pulled off, I pinned that he put the rock up in his mouth (So he gon' come back for his money!) I pinned that he braked...he skid... Put it in reverse and he came back quick... Fiend jumped out and he talkin' all big... This is what happened to this bit.... We beat him and finished him off, and he never came 'round here no more Cause a nigga ran into yours truly: poor, and a nigga scored Lord forgive me but I can't remember (the last time I ate) Now I gots to go get me a plate, or a bit, now I'm proper Only spent three dollars and forty-four cents Nigga full, now I gotta get bent Nigga still got sixteen dollars and fifty-six cents...HELL YEAH! These dum-dums got a nigga off the hook..they got booked, took, shook Look: got dope but it ain't dope, so I guess you can call me a "crooked crook" Hey...do you know somebody like me? I don't think so, cause ain't nobody I see Down for the crime like I'm down for mine And if I gotta, nigga I cheat (cheat) Chorus (x2) So fuck with me, I got the chops mayn (chops mayn) The biggest rocks up on the block mayn (block mayn) Say fuck with me, I got tha chops mayn (the chopper, choppers) The biggest rocks up on the block mayn (block mayn {echo})
Who still listening in 2024?
Takes me back to selling oregano as weed and rock salt as meth in middle school. Actually meet a good friend because he sold the salt meth to someone else for more money. The days though...
I said fuck it and recently purchased the album off of eBay.
Never stopped. Never EVER will 😌

32nikral one of many my friend
32nikral wait tell he dead watch huge
32nikral he bigger better then any rapper musician
32nikral man say
GOAT
This record has too many styles on it. Classic.
The versatility held within that 2 cd package is insane!!!!!
P D He's a Gemini that's why ♊👍
2 personities ,right!!!!
Cedric Odom what is that lol
Great album the only issue is it had too many features, I wish it was mainly just him and the other members of Bone.
Super facts
"soap look a little like dope (you scandalous nigga!)"
Used to walk around saying that line all day back in high school. died laughing every time
Oh man, same here. I used to say it every time I could
I still say that to this day..lol
hahahhaahhahaahahaah too funny
all of his music is underrated
The flow is unbelievable
so good
Watch the video of him in the booth spittin the first verse! He did the flow in 1 take! The way he rode the rythem is unbelievable!
One of the greatest ever in rap...
Yep he's so underrated man.
His flow here has a Native American vibe
So many styles
And he actually is making sense with story telling. This man is seriously a music genius , im not even complimenting him. He IS a sound genius

I traded my green pager with the bungee cord for this cd way back in the day. Still lovin it
ROMAIN WHITE , I'm from Cleveland and I agree that he's one of the best, but he's not the best,,,,, Lyrically speaking Scarface will eat him alive
ROMAIN WHITE There are better lyricists around, Big L, Eminem & Big Pun for example but everything else you said is true. He's my favorite rapper all time alongside Bizzy and Eminem.
Krayzie spittin true life story here.
Pray for Kray 🖤‼️🦴
Um, it's pretty obvious he's one of God's favorites already don'tcha think? I'd ask him to pray for us.....
@@misfitcj8744 I think this was in reference to when he was in the hospital not doing well. I believe he's doing better these days.
Ok I was worried…thanks for the update
What a clever way to sample the candy man. Krayzie bone so underrated and will probably never get the recognition he deserves which is a shame. Living legend!
krayzie best rapper ever imo. Been down with BONE since 92 when they were bone enterprise and the faces of death album.
bless da 40 oz to them sons of assassins really hell sent lol
How? The album didn't hit the shelves til '96.
it actually came out in 93. that shit was raw. b4 Easy-E found em
Lou Regal we had it n Cleveland
@@trucompton1413 I meant to say 93. I was stoned when I wrote that original comment.
Glad to see people still here 2023

Good days for sure bro
Krayzie is a wonderful story teller!

I said it 25 yrs ago and i say it again… aint NOBODY better then this man right here…. Btnh4life

TombstoneChris
Sick the new niggas should remix it
Yes dj uneek was a genius
@@tericaclark4871 Yes he is. But this is by T-Mix. He produced for 8ball and MJG.
I KNOW THE DUDE made THIS he from ALABAMA
If you never lived it then it is understandable why it’s not as appreciated this is by far ONE of the hardest songs of all time due to top to bottom how he put this shit together and actually being somebody who actually lived this verse at a point in my life Krazy was crazy for this one
Damn well put
Out here still living it.. still ripping cnts
Real talk
No lie
REAL RAP right here man
Still bumping in 2018
I remember rolling thru Cleveland back in tha day and seeing the billboard for this album. Miss them days! St. Clare!!! Double Glock!!!!
St Clair
I'm picturing everything he saying from play to play is like a mini movie
it's the best
2023 and this beat is still hot!
LEGENDARY SONG - on a even more LEGENDARY LP
I can’t think of another album with 38 tracks and every one of ums banging. Like literally all the tracks on this album were the shit
R.i.p. Omar Garcia aka Skitzo 🙏 this song reminds me of you. I know you're in heaven listening to this while album. love you brother.
I consider this a classic - I remember this track like it was yesterday (released way back on April 1999 - memory LANE!!!
Dope ass song one of favorite rappers well Bone Thugs n harmony is my favorite rappers period
Kray still and always be favorite rapper bone thugs forever
this whole album brings back memories of my 9th grade year
1 of his top songs
From the line at Best Buy til 2k21 eternal reppin Bone
The flow, the ambient sounds behind the spitting, the beat.....man if the lyrics just MEANT something more important than selling fake drugs LMAO. This is what I'd call a "beautiful" rap track....Straight BONE through and through...we need more of this talent these days.
IM Clan for real it is a bad ass song for a song about fake drugs lmao
He's conflicted in selling fake drugs, but he has to - he doesn't remember the last time he ate. He put his life on the life selling dum dums - I'd say there's some substance to the lyrics
so damn good
@@vincent21212 they dont understand cause they never been in those positions where sellling work is the easiest come up as its whats within reach at the moment and when that wsnt even within reach he could fake that because its me before the next man
This context is literally why it's beautiful imo
krayzie bone go hard on tellin thug stories. This song some real shyt.
Kray had that heat! Classic song
I used to listen to this album every night while laying in my bed. They don't make it like this anymore.
krayzie clever...he spittin sum real game on this track
The production on this is beast
Still in 2020 love this album 💯
1999 man bring back so many memories.
Bone been finessing soap 🧼
😩🔥🔥🔥 relatable
Kray is the 🐐
"Put it in reverse and he came back quick... Fiend jumped out and he talkin all big.." KB Flow is impeccable
The next part is the best " This is what happened to this biiiitch/ We beat him and finished him off and he never came 'round here no more/ 'Cause he ran into yours, truly poor and a nigga scored"
@@brandoncargill6135 Lord forgive me but I can't remember... The last time I aaaaatttteee!! #THERAWEST

This is the realest song to ever come out ever
Its been at least 10 years since I've listened to this album yet as soon as a song starts I can sing along instantly, every word (except when he spits 30 words in 2 seconds).
One of the greatest songs of my life.
The 80’s aesthetic of the track mixed with krayzie’s flow and storytelling 🔥🔥🔥🔥
"Only spent $3.44 cent nigga full so i gotta get bent, nigga still got $16.56 cent hello yeeaaa..." sick line!
One could possibly even argue every line is a sick line
stretch dat 20
the sickest line...boy rappin math problems!!
I remember when I first bought this album and heard this song. I couldn’t stop laughing for days. 😂😂 a masterpiece for real.
The beat alone caused me to run out of weed.
Orajel for the numbness...
classic, I still sing the skit song all the time. That shit takes my knees out every time.
This is one of my favorite songs.
The original finesse song
Thank you Krazy bone.
I was 18 when this was released and let me assure your when I say Thug Mentality 1999 is pure therapy in various ways....
I won this album at an old hair store in buffalo from our station. I let my uncle hear this and he took it because I stayed at my grandparents lol. Give it back when I was 14. My favorite track
Lol! Everybody has that album where they're family took there album and never gave it back! 🤣

Prayers up for u Krayzie bone ❤️❤️❤️🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Flawless Krayzie Bone song! buck buck buck BUCK!
Chorus:
They call me the "Dummy Man" (man, man, man)
And I'm up early tryina slang my dope
(I'm the nigga with the biggest rocks)
The fiends...they get awfully mad....(mad, mad, mad)
When they go broke on dope and it's really soap
(My nigga you ain't never lied)
Verse 1:
Up in the morning....and I feel like I don't wanna be livin'
Better off dead without no bread....have you ever felt that feeling?
Unsatisfied, feelin' like you wanna die
When you reach into your pocket and can't even find
Not even enough to go purchase a dime (sack of weed)
But FUCK THAT! I got "come up" in my blood
Cause it's the "1st of the Month" (nigga what!)
The perfect time to come up
The only problem is: I'm broke and ain't got no dope
But as I was standin' in my bathroom mirror....I looked at the soap
Shit...soap look a little like dope (you scandalous nigga!)
Then, I chopped-chopped up me some counterfeit amphetamines
But wait a minute.....
Wait a minute now...what if they want to taste it?
Think quickly for cash: nigga dash to the kitchen, get the bread bag
Wrap that bread around some soap
Now I got the breadcrumb-dum-dum dope
It might sound funny, but it ain't no joke...
Cause doin this shit could get a nigga smoked, mayn
But FUCK IT! Young nigga gotta get them duckets
Hit the medicine cabinet for the final touches...
Orajel for the numbness
Then I hit the corner with a handful of breadcrumbs...
Nigga got the dum-dum for ya
And the pump on approach if you say it ain't dope
Only dealin cause I hate to be sober
Peep, "creep on ah come up", I wait for a fiend to roll up
And walk to the car with my hand on my pistol
He showed me the green, said
"Hold up...gotta get my stash"
Nigga need a 20...but I got that faded
Lovin these yum-yums, glad I made it;
I just hope this nigga don't try to taste it!
I dropped him the dummy, he said it was lovely
But as he pulled off, I pinned that he put the rock up in his mouth
(So he gon' come back for his money!)
I pinned that he braked...he skid...
Put it in reverse and he came back quick...
Fiend jumped out and he talkin' all big...
This is what happened to this bit....
We beat him and finished him off, and he never came 'round here no more
Cause a nigga ran into yours truly: poor, and a nigga scored
Lord forgive me but I can't remember (the last time I ate)
Now I gots to go get me a plate, or a bit, now I'm proper
Only spent three dollars and forty-four cents
Nigga full, now I gotta get bent
Nigga still got sixteen dollars and fifty-six cents...HELL YEAH!
These dum-dums got a nigga off the hook..they got booked, took, shook
Look: got dope but it ain't dope, so I guess you can call me a "crooked crook"
Hey...do you know somebody like me?
I don't think so, cause ain't nobody I see
Down for the crime like I'm down for mine
And if I gotta, nigga I cheat
(cheat)
Chorus (x2)
So fuck with me, I got the chops mayn (chops mayn)
The biggest rocks up on the block mayn (block mayn)
Say fuck with me, I got tha chops mayn (the chopper, choppers)
The biggest rocks up on the block mayn (block mayn {echo})
Krayzie Bone stopped nothing but really muzic much luv B.T.N.H. 4 life
my homie you aint never lied
I was the most hated dude in my town after I heard this song! Thank you krayzie for the quick hustle 🤑
