    Layzie Bone breaks down how Eazy-E was almost E-Bone. He explains all the opportunites Eazy-E provided to Bone Thugs. Eazy-E was almost added to the group as E-Bone.
    TLDR: The key idea of the video is that Eazy-E's management deal and financial contributions kept Bone Thugs-n-Harmony together, but money and control over their music caused conflicts, highlighting Eazy-E's unselfishness and executive vision in the music industry.
    FULL EPISODE AUDIO: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast...
    1. 00:00 💰 Eazy-E signed a management deal that eventually led to a 50/50 split with his record label, Ruthless Records.
    2. 01:21 💰 The group initially operated under a majority rule system, but as they gained money, individuals began to prioritize their own desires, causing the group to lose cohesion.
    3. 03:11 📺 Eazy-E recognized the unique and groundbreaking nature of Bone Thugs-n-Harmony's music, but noticed inconsistencies and questionable records along the way.
    4. 04:30 💰 Eazy-E's financial contributions kept the group going, but money also caused conflicts and divisions, yet their strong family bond and shared upbringing in the Glenville area helped them stay together and stand the test of time.
    5. 06:20 💰 Artists who didn't have good contracts for their first albums are now free agents and can reclaim their masters, but they have to go to court and get a lawyer to do so.
    6. 07:25 📺 Eazy-E gave his group 100% freedom in the studio, but after his death, others tried to control their music.
    7. 08:47 🎤 Eazy-E wanted to create new music instead of being forced to recreate the success of "Crossroads."
    8. 09:47 🎵 Eazy-E's unselfishness and executive vision solidified his role as a visionary in the music industry, allowing his producers to work with other artists and releasing his group's album instead of his own, while also achieving success with NWA and JJ Fad.
    8.1 Eazy-E allowed his producers to work with other artists while he focused on handling business and would listen to their music, sometimes liking it and sometimes not, but he always encouraged them to write their own verses.
    8.2 Eazy-E's decision to put his own album on hold and release his group's album instead showcased his unselfishness and executive vision, solidifying his role as a visionary in the music industry.
    8.3 Eazy-E released NWA and also had the ability to release JJ Fad, which was his first platinum album and featured various unique artists.

    I can vouch Lazie is a real nigga. I remember when they tried to make different Mo Thug labels like Mo Thug south, Mo Thug Midwest. I reached out to Lazie to see if they still were doing it, and he reached back out to me personally. Wasn’t his manager, publicist, it was Lazie himself, and he said they weren’t doing it anymore. He even gave me a lowball figure to feature on my song. I just didn’t have the money at the time, but it might’ve been in the low of 1k or lower
