Bone Brothers was released after the dismissal of Bizzy Bone. Bone Thugs-N-Harmony came straight out of Cleveland, Ohio in the early 1990s, capturing the ears of Eazy-E, and, subsequently with its then-unique blend of hardcore rap and harmonized vocals. After fading into the background for awhile, the Bone clan returned in early 2005. The Bone Brothers, a collaboration between Bizzy Bone and Layzie Bone, follows close on the heels of the solo effort by Krayzie Bone, as well as a retrospective of Bone Thugs' career, and features appearances by all four free Bones (with Flesh-N-Bone in jail). The album continues in the Bone tradition of complex flows, incorporating numerous musical styles. In the chorus of "Hip Hop Baby," Bizzy and Layzie croon about the variety of music they enjoy, noting, however, that it all comes back to hip-hop. On the previous track, "Complicated," they join with the Outlawz for an interpolation of the Avril Lavigne hit, which features a sinister keyboard line. The solemn, reflective "What's Friends" showcases Krayzie Bone, as the three Bones whimsically play off each others' rhymes.
