Bizzy Bone’s verse kicks in. It’s melodic, but it’s most definitely a rap. It’s quite really unlike anything else out there at the time. The year is 1995. Notorious B.I.G.

And are a couple of the biggest names in rap, and these cats from Cleveland come along with a fresh, dark sound. Now Cleveland, Ohio has never been known for its contributions to hip hop music. 2009 Gulf Stream Vista Cruiser 4230 on this page. It probably never will be. But if ever there was a case to take the city’s contribution to hip hop culture seriously, it would be because of E. 1999 Eternal.

The album, which came out twenty years ago today, embodied a mutated G-funk sound laced with the band’s unique flows, of which they rap with the utmost respect for harmony. The rappers, by the way, more specifically are, Layzie Bone, Bizzy Bone, Wish Bone, and Flesh-n-Bone. Krayzie is the only MC to appear on all tracks, but Layzie and Bizzy are on most of them as well.

1999 Eternal has all the makings for a classic hip hop album. It’s chalk full of classics without cheesy attempts at singles.

The LP was unique in production and, and its influence has lasted into present day due to the Thugs’ forward-thinking flows. It was even one of the last projects that Eazy-E worked on before he passed away (“Crossroad” is dedicated to him). All of these factors helped to make the record one of the best selling hip hop albums of all time. The sound on E.

1999 is one of a kind. DJ U-Neek, who made each beat on the album, lived up to the name with his production.

It melted the modern sounds with G-funk with the syrup pace of Texas rap. Some of the high moments in terms of sampling come on “Mo Murda” when U-Neek sampled Bootsy Collins’, better known as the excentric bassist in George Clinton’s Parliament-Funkadelic, track “I’d Rather Be With You.

It was also pretty genius when the crew flipped The Isley Brothers’ legitimate love song “Choosey Lover” into the ultimate stoner song on “Buddah Lovaz.” There’s no doubt that these Cleveland cats loved their trees. The album’s melodic, slow instrumentation has gone on to spawn less funky vibes that you see in or Yung Lean’s kind of music. Cloud rap, or whatever you want to call it, definitely takes more than a couple nods from E. Just listen to the beats on “Crept and We Came,” “Mr. Bill Collector,” or “No Shorts, No Losses” for those vibes. Of course, those unmistakable G-funk synths haven’t really found themselves in modern rap culture too often, but the general smoked-out, leaned-back (pun intended) vibe is all over the place, from the obvious examples that A$AP Rocky and Ferg provide to the less obvious artists like Atlanta’s and Father, the latter of which embodies a lot of that evil darkness that the Thugs thrived on. “Down ’71 (The Getaway)” and “Die Die Die” employ straight-up murderous lyrics; stuff that was really, really dark and hard: “Cause nigga the sawed-off ain't full of shit Me lovin' to smoke tweed and me weed man They givin' me what me need man when I light my blunt Fold the niggas up in me hood so when we smoke smoke smoke Get paid good so we gonna blaze good So come to The Land where all the thugs be real Them St.

While the album contains content that rivals the likes of Three Six Mafia and Insane Clown Posse for the most violent material in rap music at the time, It’s around this time that ‘horrorcore’ is becoming more and more popular. 1995 is somewhat of a revolutionary year for the subgenre, with Three Six releasing their debut album and ICP releasing their third record, the gold certified Riddle Box. And th Gravediggaz had just released their acclaimed 1994 record 6 Feet Deep, and we’re just a couple years before Slim Shady starts murdering people on the track, and going platinum while he’s at it. Along with the slaughterhouse, murderous tendencies in their horrorcore-leaning material, the overwhelming influence from comes in their rap deliver, their melodic blend of singing and rapping. Along with Nate Dogg, these dudes were blending the worlds of R&B and hip hop with each line they spit.
