2 Crossroads by Bone Thugs?!  

90'S WAS THE ERA

Great reaction Bonethugsfam4life

The girls singing at the beginning of Tha Crossroads video is “Tre” of Mo Thugs. They were a group from Bone’s record label in the mid 90’s

Picture them in front of a burning barrel singing the original crossroads and you'd get a good idea of how they think of some of their harmonies.

The original version fits the vibe of the the album (E. 1999 Eternal) better than The Remix, which has a much more upbeat sound to it.

Much respect bro. This is hands down the best Bone Thugs-N-Harmony reaction video I've seen. I made it to the very end and I wanted more. This is exactly how i feel about Bone and these specific duo of songs. To me, one of the very best hip hop songs of all time. They'r so prevalent in the hood. Songs being played at funerals. These are anthems!

Wally was there best friend he got shot for trying to breakup a fight. With the baby taken away that was Layzie bone’s unborn child.

It hit way different back when the video came out.

WALQUIST HEART IN LIL BIT OF EVERY ONE OF HIS STUDENTS

That was the group Tre' from their MO THUG family...at the intro of CROSSROSDS remix

Tha Crossroads music video had a 1 million dollar budget. In 90s money that's tens of millions practically

They got a version with flesh as well

Bizzy actually says, "bring it in for Wally, Eazy, C's Uncle Charlie". In reference to Wish Bone who's real name is Charles Scruggs and his Uncle Charles. I would guess that Wish was named after him.

As dope as all versions are, the OG fits more into the typical RIP rap song that was common in Gangsta rap in comparison. It was emotional, but due to how Wally lost his life, it was hard so it wasn’t as relatable, the other version on the other hand was dedicated to more people than those who had their lives cut short as a result of they environment. It was more sentimental in that regard & sonically. The instrumental was softer & more somber, it stood out IMMENSELY compared to songs wit the same subject matter that came before it, & some that came after it. That song was practically the “Dance With My Father” of rap. Both versions hit in different way, the OG DOES hit hard emotionally, but hits harder lyrically, vibe-wise, the other might not hit as hard lyrically, but it hits AT LEAST TWICE as hard emotionally

Sorry this is going to be a long one. When E. 1999 first came out, I bought it within the first week. Listening to the whole tape right away. Crossroads was my favorite song by far. It hit me deep down, and I felt their greef, and it helped me deal with my own. I would always tell my best friend, "if they would make a video for crossroads, it would shoot up their album sales." When they released the remix with the video my friend came to my house and told me that they had a crossroads video. But it was a remix. I said to him, don't tell me they fucked up the song. He said it's way different but still a good song. So we put on MTV to see it. It didn't take long and it came on. I flipped out. I hated that they completely changed the song. And I wouldn't listen to it for about two years. It's a great song, what pissed me off the most is the name. The original crossroads had friends and family I associate with it, and the remix felt too commercial to me. Till this day the remix doesn't touch me like the original. The original still brings me to tears to this day. I don't hate the remix anymore but it is one of the few songs I will skip on my play list. It is a great song I just wish they wouldn't have called it the crossroads. Especially since after it's release it took the place of crossroads on the album. We had to wait till they released the collection vol 1 to get a copy of the original again.

Props bro on reacting to the original version of crossroads. Not too long after the remix came out, they took the original version off the album and added the remix in is place.

And there is actually a 3rd one....The remix version but with Flesh on it..and the other members verses slightly changed. Worth checking out.

RIP EAZY E

ANYTHING WITH BONE, WE'RE 10 TOES ALL THE WAY

WHILE EVEN THOUGH YOU GON GONE ORIGNAL LYRIC

ORIGINAL TLC I BELEIVE DID INTRO

A original foi feita primeiro em homenagem a um amigo deles que deu muita força pro grupo antes da fama e o filho do layzie que faleceu depois fizeram a remix pro Eazy e

THERE'S ACTUALLY 3 VERSION ONE WITH FLESH N BONE REAL BONE FAN HERE

The lyrics for Tha Crossroads are close. Bizzy starts his verse, Dead Souls, nigga this for Wally Eazy sees Uncle Charlie.... the rest is on time

Those lyrics are actually incorrect for Bizzy's verse. "I done rolled with blows like AIDS, look at them while they lay and prayed, but destiny is too deep for me to say."
