 Excellent for just a compilation CD! Apr 04, 2009
For a CD full of unreleased material this ranks high on my list. They have some very notable tracks that I think really stand out. Young Thugs, Wildin', Nation of Thugs, Remember Yesterday, Don't Waste My Time, and my personal favorite So Many Places. It's a very good CD. I'm real surprised that some of this stuff didn't make their BTNHResurrection and Thug World Order CDs. I guess it wasn't much in their control but if you don't have this CD definitely buy it.
 No. Not even a real bone album Apr 23, 2008
wow first off, the record company tries to send the world a false sense of hope with bizzy on the album and everyone thought he was back with the band, but no these are outtakes and you can really tell. "nation of thugs" is a standout that would fit on any album and "young thugs" was a decent song. Alot of these tracks feel weak and uninspired and it really was a disappointment after "strength and loyalty." All in all, Bizzy did come back with still creepin, the new bone album (Bone brothers 4 really), but skip this, because the bone thugs are being exploited for money.

Nice collection of some older unreleased Bone songs Jan 24, 2008
The four man Bone group returns (sort of), Krayzie, Layzie, Wish, and Bizzy are brought back to you by Tomica Wright to get her some more money since the group left Ruthless Records, but none the less it's still anice album of some older tracks Bone reorded that never made any of their albums. With 12 songs, you get 3 that are ok, 1 Classic, and 8 are good, a few being real good. No guests on any songs. As usual Krayzie is on the most, all 12 songs and does almost all the hooks, Layzie is on 11 of the 12, and Bizzy and Wish are each on 10 songs. Production is good as well. Noel "Detail" Fisher does 4 songs, Bone does 3, Alvin "Stone" Clark, Rick Rock, LT Hutton, DJ Uneek, and Co-Stars all do 1 song. A nice album for fans of Bone to grab a hold of.

Just my thoughts Jan 17, 2008
As much as I hate the ethics behind what Ruthless is doing, I really like this CD, simply because Bizzy is on the track. I actually like the lack of guest appearances. Strength and Loyalty only had the new Flow Motion, I Tried, and Never Forget Me for tracks that I consistently listen to and that CD had more guests than Jay Leno, SNL, and David Letterman combined. They became famous through Ruthless and the closer they got to "mainstream" the weaker their stuff got. Same thing with Bizzy up until Evolution of Elevation unfortunately... and even he has Real Talk doing stupid remixes of some of his older stuff that sound horrible. Unfortunately the days when rap was good, the mid to late '90s, has passed. Of my three favorite acts, BTNH split and became mainstream, The Lost Boyz just completely fell apart, and only Tech N9ne is left as the single underground rapper who is still saying FTI.
Good Album Jan 09, 2008
I know that Bone won't see any of the money for this CD's sales, but this is still a good album. I was surprised these tracks were never released by Ruthless, these are some good songs. There is a good number of tight beats and verses. Overall, I'd say its better than Thug Stories. To those that are hardcore Bizzy fans, Bone don't need Bizzy to sound good (period) He is in these unreleased tracks, but he is not back with bone.
Favorite Tracks:
1.T.H.U.G.S. (almost entirely because of the beat)
2.Wildin' (cool hook and flows)
3.Sweet Jane
4.Everyday Thugs (really good beat!)
5.Remember Yesterday
