Swizz Beatz caught up with HipHopGame.com today to speak on the Bone Thugs-N-Harmony comeback which will be happening care of his Full Surface imprint.
The producer explained his draw to the group:
Bone is the new thing going down. Bone is the old new. They’re one of the greatest groups ever, so me teaming up with Bone, I’m a fan first. It was like a perfect marriage. I didn’t have to do artist development on the group. At first, I wanted to bring them into my world. But as a fan of music, the whole world doesn’t revolve around Swizz’ world. They’ve had fans since E.1999. I wanted to give their old fans what they wanted and fuse the old fans with the new fans that they’re about to gain and make it something refreshing. There’s no hip-hop groups out now that are doing it like Bone and there were no hip-hop groups out back then that were doing it like Bone. It means a lot to be exposed with Bone.
