										Short Biography: Bizzy Bone the 
										most unique member of Bone 
										thugs-n-harmony has had his shot at a 
										solo career. Bizzy made his solo debut 
										in 1998 with "Heaven'z Movie". Then he 
										followed up that album in 2001 and 
										released of "The Gift". Both albums 
										would go on and do pretty well giving 
										Bizzy a solid solo career.  
										 
										Three years later and Bizzy is back 
										again with his third solo album "Alpha & 
										Omega". The album shows Bizzy's 
										diversity and brings a new style never 
										heard from Bizzy. 
										
										
										 
										Best known as a 
										member of the Cleveland crew Bone 
										Thugs-N-Harmony, rapper Bizzy Bone began 
										a prolific, risk-taking, and sometimes 
										baffling solo career in 1998. Combining 
										rapid raps and laid-back singing, his 
										soul-searching debut, 
										
										Heaven'z Movie, 
										didn't sound entirely unlike a 
										
										Bone Thugs 
										album, but it was obvious that on his 
										own, Bizzy felt free to explore his 
										psyche and to go eccentric places his 
										group just would not. 
										
										The Gift from 
										2001 further divided Bone fans, with 
										some seeing his confessional writing as 
										riveting while others found it overly 
										indulgent. A year later at a Bone 
										Thugs-N-Harmony performance in New York 
										City, Bizzy was noticeably drunk and 
										walked off-stage halfway through the 
										show. He was let go from the group that 
										night, but Bizzy claimed he had been a 
										solo artist for years and only a guest 
										in the group. He also began giving more 
										interviews around this time, frequently 
										speaking about his new crew, the 7th 
										Sign. He also made an appearance on the 
										Fox television series America's Most 
										Wanted, revealing he had been kidnapped 
										at the age of four and had wrongly 
										believed his mother was dead until he 
										was rescued, thanks to someone who had 
										recognized his picture from a photo 
										shown at the end of the 1983 television
										
										
										movie Adam.
										 
										 
										If it seemed the black sheep of Bone was 
										becoming more personal and approachable, 
										2004's fascinating and cryptic Alpha and 
										Omega was a puzzling move, but fans 
										responded positively to the album, 
										influencing Bizzy to produce his own 
										underground limited-edition album, The 
										Beginning and the End. In 2005 he made 
										news with a drunken appearance on 
										Houston's KPFT radio, where he claimed 
										to be homeless. He made no excuses for 
										his appearance in the many interviews 
										that would follow, and while he admitted 
										he wasn't actually homeless, he did 
										admit to having a drinking problem and 
										that he was working on controlling it. 
										With Bizzy showing no signs of slowing 
										down, the perfectly titled Speaking in 
										Tongues appeared that year along with 
										two mail order-only releases -- For the 
										Fans, Vol. 1 and Vol. 2 -- and a reunion 
										album with Bone member 
										
										Layzie Bone 
										titled 
										
										Bone Brothers. 
										Bizzy's refusal to tour in support of
										
										
										Bone Brothers 
										found him out of favor with the group 
										once again, and the full Bone reunion 
										that had been talked about fell apart. 
										Bizzy moved ahead and made 2006 even 
										busier with the albums 
										
										Thugs Revenge,
										
										
										The Story, and
										
										
										The Midwest Cowboy 
										all landing that year. David Jeffries,
