[@illmaticgemini]

Court speaking the same thoughts many of us had: Krayzie took the lead and has his fingerprints all over AoW - in a good way. IMO, Krayzie really developed this during the Mo Thugs: Family Scriptures album. He went from an All-Star (COACU-E1999 Eternal) to a HOF trajectory. Rounded out his (and BTNH's) sound. 1996 was key. 1997 w/ AoW he went off. Well done, Court.

This Comment!!!

[@ShadowDancer_]

Art of War is still my favorite album 'till this day.

[@qhorton6743]

Art of War was truly special. Although I still hold E1999 in the highest regard, AOW dropped Aug of '97 and I had just turned 14. The boys and I rode our bikes to the local record store in the hood. For a bit of a premium, they would sell hiphop albums the Friday before their Tuesday release date. Needless to say, I took this 30 bucks that grandma gave me and dropped it all on this album. The rest of that Friday and the weekend would be obsessing over that album.. breaking down lyrics.. me and the boys discussing our fav tracks and freaking out over the Crucial Conflict name drop on "Ready 4 War".. good times

[@mizzo_beeto]

Nahhhh it dropped July bro the 29th my 14th birthday I remember coping it at the record store on that day still!

[@qhorton6743]

@mizzo_beeto ha! you're right! That's my bad

[@17thN.O]

E.1999 Eternal is one of the greatest albums ever to me. Their solos are classics as well.

[@robertsmall1657]

I love this comment. I used to ride around with my boys on our bikes too and debate the lyrics. I was obsessed! I was in 7th 8th or 9th grade. I don’t remember exactly but great times!!!

[@SinistaDaBeast]

Wowwwwww!!!! I spoke on It's All Real in the last segment...Court was reading our minds lol!!!

[@Villeins09]

If you pay attention to Kray's interviews, you can tell he's the more introverted one in the group. It's also apparent that he's the most punctual, hence why he was always first in the studio. The Art Of War was a prelude to Thug Mentality in many ways. As a fan, this album cemented him as the most assertive musically in the group. It's obvious the other members trusted his direction and probably enjoyed having more time to focus on their creative processes individually in the studio. I agree with Kray's perspective on solo albums. I think it took away some of the group's momentum and possibly more classic albums. Big Court, much respect! You went in the vault with those questions. These are the things we real Bone fans and music heads have been waiting to hear for decades.

[@K4ReeL187]

[@d0uble0se7en_]

After art of war it did seem like a drop in quality and cohesiveness. It was a mixed bag after the EP and the first 2 albums. Like u said if they all had kray mindset maybe the albums would’ve been more consistent after art of war

[@Villeins09]

@@K4ReeL187 Definitely

[@Villeins09]

@@d0uble0se7en_ Agreed! I think that's where the term, "Iron sharpens Iron." comes into play. What the other group members lacked, he made up for, and vice-versa.

[@d0uble0se7en_]

@@Villeins09 word. And if u notice, listen to how focused and themed thug mentality is and listen to all the other solo albums .. There’s heat on the other solos but krayzie solo albums sound more focused and better put together. He was well rounded. Introspection, spirituality, weed songs, thug mentality and a bit of blues all in one.

[@m.m4982]

These interviews show confirms what us super fans knew, there's some distance between the members. I'm glad KB and LB can be very honest about his teammates. If you ask BB he dances around questions and says "it was a beautiful thang ya know. We all do everything as a group and things were real beautiful and things of that nature...."great interviews.

Much love to Big Court and the entire Holdin Court Podcast. Thank you for continuing to give us legendary interviews. Big Court is a genius at conducting interviews. The Art of War is my favorite album of all time. I love everything about the album from the album art work, promo commercials, videos, double CD, Bone solo songs. I remember copping the double cassette tape from Sam Goody, when I got home I lost my mind when I heard Handle the Vibe I kept rewinding it. I stopped buying cassette tapes when I found out that the CD version had the bonus song "Whom Die they Lie". This album is a straight masterpiece. I've been a 20 plus year die hard Bone fan (drives my wife crazy with my fandom LOL), Bone-4-Life.

YES INDEED! I remember that about the cassette tape ! I had that one, and my brother had the CD, I was mad ! He had the bonus song, but I listened to his CD, and we shared it ! hahah!
