Bone Thugs N Harmony

No other one has done more to prove that rap at it's hardest and melody at its most sublime were meant to live together in thuggish, ruggish harmony than this legendary Cleveland hip hop band, who won their Grammy for "The Crossroads" 17 years ago. It's a song that still brings back emotional memories of the era and of lost heroes like Tupac Shakur and Easy E, the West Coast impresario who helped bring the band to prominence and who has been known to appear at their concertsin hologram form.
