== Music career == The group formed the band '''B.O.N.E. Enterpri$e''' (all except for Flesh-N-Bone) and recorded an album entitled ''[[Faces of Death (album)|Faces of Death]]'' in the studio of their then-mentor, Kermit Henderson, on his indie label Stoney Burke in 1993. After this Layzie and the rest of the Bone Family boarded a [[Greyhound Bus]] to [[Los Angeles]] where they worked with notable producer and rapper [[Eazy-E]] and his Ruthless/Relativity Records label. Diego Blak (born Diego Hodge), a marketer and promoter and co-executive producer of ''Faces of Death'', introduced them to Eazy-E at a concert he promoted in Cleveland, Ohio, where they auditioned for him in his dressing room and then traveled back to Los Angeles after the show to seal the deal. At this point Eazy named them Thugs-n-Harmony but they wanted to keep the Bone name so they were called [[Bone Thugs-N-Harmony]].<ref name="Adams 2002 534-546">{{cite book|last=Adams|first=Deanna R.|title=Rock 'n' Roll and the Cleveland Connection|publisher=Kent State University Press|year=2002|pages=534β546|isbn=0-87338-691-4}}</ref><!--This reference is for the majority of this paragraph--> === Solo career, Mo Thugs & Bone Brothers === Layzie has also promoted the indie label [[Mo Thugs Records]] which he and the rest of Bone originated.
