BoneCrusher (born Wayne Hardnett, August 23, 1971 in Atlanta, Georgia) is a rapper based out of Atlanta. He debuted in 2003 with his first album AttenCHUN! which featured the single Never Scared, which was used as the theme for the 2003 Atlanta Braves.
Before his success, BoneCrusher was a part of the Lyrical Giants, a crew that worked with Too Short and Erick Sermon and whose other members were Baby B and Bizar. Both appear on Crusher's debut album.
The large, 6' 1" MC had a tumultuous start to his career. He bounced with the Lyrical Giants from one label to the next before landing on his feet with Jermaine Dupri and his newly reorganized So So Def label. When So So Def moved to Virgin, BoneCrusher left the label along with YoungBloodZ but still remains under LaFace Records.
BoneCrusher has been featured in songs with Youngbloodz, David Banner, Young Jeezy, Trillville, and T-Pain. He is currently working on his new rock band and his third album, tentatively titled The M.A.S.H.
Bone Crusher has appeared in the Movies ATL & Scary Movie 4. He is also playable in the video game Def Jam Fight For NY. He also cameoed in Lil Jon's Put Yo Hood Up video prior to being a musician.
He was a contestant on the fourth season of Celebrity Fit Club, and currently holds the all-time record for most weight loss there, having lost 51 lbs.
His current project is the metal/rap band, Onslaught. The single, 'Come On' debuted October 20, 2006 on Shade 45, a station on the Sirius Satellite radio network.
