This was one of my favourite reactions! Thanks for watching :) The Exclusive Nas Reaction is available here: www.patreon.com/posts/71474105?

Backstory: Biggie stepped in the booth with Bone and was so amazed by their verses, that after the studio session, he took the beat home, studied Bones flow for a few days, then write and rap his verse. It’s a different BIG! Inspired by Bone! (Ryan B)

I don't care what anybody says... The intro to this song with Bone singing on beat, and the background chimes... still raises the hairs on my neck and arms!!! And when BIG comes in!!! The day that this dropped... Instant club banger! I will never forget the sight of the different dance floors when this jam started!!

Pops a real one for catching that “so called beef with you know who” line 💯💪🏾

Layzie’s verse gets overlooked but man.. he killed that

Bone is the only group to have recorded songs in the studio with Eazy-E, 2pac, Notorious BIG, and Big Pun

Bizzy and Krayzie Bone are musical geniuses and some of the most talented artist

Bone didn’t hear Biggie’s verse until the album came out. Big took the beat home and rewrote his verse to match Bone’s flow.

*One of the best beat builds in the history of hip hop*

The way pops reacted to Bizzy starting his verse and how he acknowledged the Krayzie flow switch were my favorite parts of the reaction.

The fact that I, as a (then)16 y/o Swedish girl knew all the words to this track is both telling of its impact and absolutely hilarious 😂 (cut to today, still knowing every word and "singing" along😎)

Bizzy's verse 🔥🔥🔥 we're probably talking about the best technical verse of all time ... Funny how people always react the same way when they hear bizzy's verse ... Genius at work

Do you know what crazy. As soon as your father said, “Oh, it 2Pac and Biggie.” I didn’t judge him at all because after all these years I never thought to myself that “Notorious Thugs” would’ve been a perfect title for a 2Pac and B.I.G. album. Great guess Dad.

As a die hard bone thugs fan I’m really looking forward to this 🤩

Shout to Stevie J for making one of the dopest beats in Hip Hop History. Fit for right Lyricists

My favourite rap song by far. First heard when I was like 13, now 33, nothing comes close. Biggie switching his flow to mesh with bone, bizzys flow and range, going high to low, "beg my pardon to Martin, we ain't marching we shooting". Krays speed and layzies delivery, along with the production and hook makes it absolutely timeless.

Now it’s time for “Thug Luv” - Bone Thugs and Tupac… Can’t wait for that one…👍👍👍

I love that long ass intro of this song - it creates so much tension and anticipation and then, boom, BIG comes out of fkn nowhere and goes absolutely stupid, snaps on that totally unexpected Bone Thugs flow. Whoever produced this joint (might have been DJ Uneek) is a genius.

90's rap was the best era ! My high school days, gotta love it!

Hardcore Bone Fan here!🖐🏾one of my favorite tracks! Thank you for this….. R.I.P B.I.G❤

Your dad innocently calling Bone thugs “The Bone thugs boys” 😊😂😂

This song is special, a brilliant build up, remarkable display of cadence in their flows…I can’t wait to watch

Biggie came with the double time flow, we had never heard him do that. That verse is one of best ever. Stevie J was a great producer before he became a reality TV star .

For those of us who were teenagers when this came out.. This was what we were playing in our cd players and bumpin out of our cars back then. Everyone was. And I was in Seattle. I'm sure it was similar around the country.

Now it’s almost mandatory that you do a reaction to ‘Thug Love’ (Bone Thugs & 2Pac). 😎

Personally the best review yet Father and son head bobbing to the beat at the same time Epic

Bizzy did his verse in one take.

Thank you for doing this. I’ve loved this song my whole life. It was my brother’s favorite song, he passed away in July and when I hear this song now, I get emotional. 🥹

Kai and dad bridging the generational gap for sure..💯

Biggie’s ‘life after death’ was released March 25, 1997. Just sixteen (16) days after he was killed. So so sad, Biggie is so very missed ❤️ Also, the guys of Bone Thugs n’ Harmony didn’t get to hear Big’s verse until after he died and his album was released. “Life after death” was a double album because about six months before his death Big, Lil’ Cease, and Charli Baltimore (a female rapper Big was dating when he died) were in a really bad car accident. Cease lost control of a rental car in the rain and the car spun out onto the other side of the highway and flipped several times. Cease (was driving) lost most of, if not all of his front teeth from smashing his mouth into the steering wheel and was thrown out of the car. Charli was partially thrown out of the car, she landed on the hood with a head injury which split her scalp open and a huge flap was hanging (they were able to stitch it up but she said if she ever had to shave her head, that it is a very large and nasty looking scar, but she thankfully was okay, no brain damage) and Big was front seat passenger and his leg got crushed under the dash board and they had to use the jaws of life to get him out. Big’s leg was broken in several places and he had to stay in the hospital/rehabilitation unit after having surgery to place plates & screws to fix his leg. So in that two months of doing physical therapy after surgery he just wrote and wrote. Big’s leg was still messed up when he was in California (before his death) and that is why he walked with a cane. Some Cali people were irritated by it thinking he was using it to look like a pimp or something because they didn’t know he had been in an accident. I don’t think any of his family, friends, or fans would want Big to be in a nasty car accident like he was, but it always made me think, what if he hadn’t been in the accident!?! ‘Life after death’ would’ve been a regular 10ish song album and he would’ve died before we heard some of the most amazing and classic Biggie songs! -some of Big’s people said the accident happened 24-48 hours after Big found out Tupac died. That Big was really upset over his death and was smoking and acting the fool, and ended up getting arrested and their vehicle towed. The car they got out of the tow impound was messed up so they took it to the dealer to be fixed and was given the rental (that they ended up crashing) to drive in the meantime.

“Verbal acrobatics” that was a spot on description of this song. He definitely nailed that one on the head

I still get chills when Bizzy says "you ready to die? We'll see"

Your dad is such a open minded person. You can see the kid in him still that he has passed to you as well. You two are blessed. Keep it up RIP BIG shit he goes hard in the beginning.

Bigs flow on this track was insane it showed his versatility how he jumped on a track with them and busted out there flow 🙏🏾 RIP BIG

This is a masterpiece/classic ✅ Stevie J. is known for nonsense today, but he produced the hell out of some of our favorite artists' albums in the 90s. Mariah Carey considers her Butterfly album from 1997 to be her magnum opus. My favorite album cut is 'Breakdown' ft Bone Thugs. She also speeds up her singing to mimic their rapping style. Worth a listen.

I don't think it can be stated enough, it is so refreshing to see an older adult appreciate music that isnt exactly what he grew up on. I know a lot of people who stick to what they know. He's so open and kind and i just love this. ❤️

I listen to this song everyday , I love it so muchhhhh , i’m happy you guys liked it ❤️‼️

I remember the weekend big died that next day or that weekend the radio stations in LA were playing his song "Going back to Cali", I remember like it was yesterday and there was a really eerie feeling in the air that weekend.

So happy you did this track, one of the greatest of all time. Still one of my favourite tracks to this day. Much love from Australia guys

Biggie switched up his flow SEVEN times !!!

Man. My father passed away when I was 23. Watching you two, and your relationship makes me so happy. So very jealous, but so very happy. Keep up the amazing work. Hoping I get to listen to music again with my father one day. Thank you.

I'll keep saying it..........Your Father is awesome, so open minded to the beauty of the culture and to learn from it, Amazing!!!!!. On a side note I think you need to let him hear E-40's flow he'll be mesmerised!.

Bizzy's flow was so layered its taken me yrs! "Triple 6 rivals (not about the rap group) & "start em off little & give em a Bible a pen & a pad to get in their head to Kick the devil" I mean WOW!!!

Your dad is a real scholar, associating “thugs” with Tupac. Great reaction, dudes.

I love how close captioning was keeping up and then just completely gave up when the second verse started lol. 🤣

I was in high school when this came out. Taking the bus to and from and this low rider would cruise up every day bumping this track. For weeks on repeat. It was the s***.

THE MOB ASK AND WE RECEIVED A GEM OF A REACTION 😁

Im 35, One of my favorite songs growing up. Hands down. *H Town luv*

My husband and I love watching the dynamic between you two. We are "dad's" age with kids the same age as kai, but grew up on what the son shows the father...genius interaction, we love y'all!

Regarding Bone Thugs, it's crazy to me how some of the best flowing rappers ever came together at the same time in Cleveland and while they've influenced lots of rappers, it's never been close to duplicated.

Bone thugs, Twista, do or die, tech n9ne...loving the beginning of some Midwest speed rappers.

It’s thoroughly warming seeing your dad’s appreciation for these classics. Both of your reactions here are nourishing to all connoisseurs of this music.

Bone’s story, particularly Bizzy’s, is very intriguing, quite heartbreaking. Would love to see you two dice deeper into his and Left Eye’s lives. Bizzy performing live was like nothing else I’ve ever seen.

This shows why Bizzy is the greatest rapper of all time. The singing, the rapid fire, the aggressiveness, the lyrics "Beggin my pardon to Martin, we ain't marching, we shooting" damn!!!!

In all my years, i have never heard this song. It was so good. Wow

Words can't explain how much I love Bone Thugs.

"Days of our lives" and "shoot em up" are 2 great songs you should check out

I remember the first time I heard this. Bought the album the day it came out. Time does fly by.

Tonight I made the decision to subscribe to your channel officially. I've been watching without subscribing following your dad's progression and his reaction and comments to notorious thugs sold me. I'm jealous of the relationship between you and your pops. It appears you actually understand how amazing it is yourself Young man. I'm going to keep watching

i love krazie bones flow

I can't wait, big fan of Bone Thugs

watching him react to lil dicky pillow talking or jail (all 4 parts) would be great. Love to see dad smile and laugh.

Best rap collab of all-time!

I have this song on my car and listen to it everyday and open my windows up to show everybody that this type of songs are untouchable and a timeless classics that can't be touched, the 90's was the best era for hip hop and rap. I play the song loud when I open my windows.

Chills!! I’ve been going back through the Bone Thug albums all week, such a warm blast from the past 🔥🔥🔥

I haven't heard this song in over 12 years and somehow I can still rap along to every word! Some childhood songs never leave you!

Appreciate That Pops is resonating with different flows and cadences now. He's now a true Hip-Hop Head

I cant wait to see you guys react to one of the best rap songs that were ever made 😂👌🏽 Also thanks for your reactions.. people like you two really give me back faith in humanity.

This was a fire one for sure. The natural follow up to this gotta be thug luv. I love both but i cant lie, the composition and delivery in thug luv is one of the most rememberable moments of that era. I was teen living in sweden when this came out and i was banging this so hard i had track on repeat in my walkman, recorded back to back thru the entire cassettetape 💪

This song is a masterpiece. Everything about it is 10/10

Appreciate the father but also the son who’s into this 90s era,the best era ever in hip hop no question!

This is one of my all time favorites. Love that you did this -- I've been waiting.

I love this song,especially biggies flow in his opening, I also admire the way you both listen and appreciate the background instrumentation. in the songs.great reaction guys. Miracles and blessings to you and yours please continue tobridging the generation gap,by sharing music. ✌️💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜.

Phenomenal track. One of the greatest. Flows off the CHAIN.

My all time #1 song and I've never smiled so much seeing your dad reacting to each verse, every flow change etc. Brilliant video!

I've been waiting on this reaction I absolutely loved love love this reaction. This is one of the BEST collaborations EVER! THANKS A BUNCH!

They use to smoke weed on my porch with my cousin happy I got to come outside and meet them from Cleveland periodt hands down I still Lenten to this song know all the words

Amazing track! One of my favorite ever. Wonderful reaction, love your Dad facial expressions when the change of flows came up.

It makes my heart smile to see you and your Dad bond over a love and appreciation of music. This is genuinely so beautiful. God blesss! ♥️

Thank you guys for reacting to this Banger !!!! It's one of my favourite B.I.G song in I was so hyped at work to get home too see this Video. Thank you sooooo much for making my day

Stevie J produced this 🤯

Still one of the dopest tracks ever.

i think this is my all time favorite song!im so glad for this reaction.good job guys!!!

this is my favorite song forever and ever and ever and ever, thank you for doing what you do! i love your channel so much, love the connection between you two. family is everything, missing mine right now! feeling very grateful :)

Love the channel, especially when you guys react to the GOATs like Tupac, Bone Thugs, Nas, etc... if you guys continue doing BTNH I feel like 'Days Of Our Lives', 'If I Could Teach The World' would go over well with Kai's dad. Krayzie Bone's solo music such as 'Thug Mentality' or 'It's All Real' (from 'Art Of War') would also be dope!

They were serving up the goosebumps with this one…🙌🙌🙌

I have been waiting for you guys to react to this song. One of my all-time favorites for sure.

One of my favorite songs by them ❤❤ loved the reaction

Bone laid their verses on the spot after being drunk and high. They had to wake them up to record. Biggie took it home. Bone didn't hear the finished product until after biggie passed.

I listen to this 🔥 track every day

Just have to sa this, as a graphic designer in the music industry my whole life is album covers! Seeing you and your father actually respond and take the time to discuss things like the cover art is awesome and very much appreciated by alot of u in the community! Thanks and much love.

I would like to see your Dad listen to some Outkast, Twista, Do or Die, Ludacris, 8Ball & MJG, Nelly (early stuff) . Even some one hit wonders like Lil Troy or Skee-Lo. I love the videos, been binge watching

That fast style of rapping was big in the Midwest back in the day.. So for Biggie from New York to rap fast and do it well was like Wow 😮

Yesss! I was waiting for y'all to choose this one! After hearing them apart you just had to hear them together!!!!

“It’s Biggie and Tupac, together!” Epic! 🤣

Also love how your dad moves to the song, he is digging it.

I see that Mos Def "Black on Both Sides" album back there behind pops....I'm once again gonna request "Ms. Fat Booty"!!! Storytelling at its absolute finest! Easily one of my desert island songs!

YES!!! Been waiting for this!!

i hope y’all fall in love with bizzy and listen to his solo shit!! he’s phenomenal, a legend who doesn’t get the recognition he deserves. His solo music back then was AMAZING and he’s still making bomb music now

One of the best reactions yet. The dad genuinely enjoyed the song. You can see it on his face. Like your work, watching from Puerto Rico. If you change it up a little, try reacting to Nobody by Nas & Lauryn Hill.
