Profile of Bizzy Bone on Famous Like Me

Bizzy Bone, born Bryon McCane on September 12, 1976 in Columbus, Ohio, is a former member of the rap group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony.

Bizzy Bone started in hip-hop as a founding member of the group "Bone Thugs-N-Harmony." Formed in 1991, this Cleveland-based crew first caught the ear of N.W.A. member Eazy-E.

Their trademark double and triple-time sung/rapped harmonies brought something new to the table at a time when most acts were busy trying to imitate The Chronic. The unique sound prompted multi-platinum record sales, won them a Grammy, and brought the spotlight to the long-neglected Midwestern hip-hop community.

As a solo performer, Bizzy Bone is well known for his high-speed rhyme style and unique singing abilities. Continually writing and recording around the clock, he released his first solo album in 1998, the personal and introspective Heaven'z Movie. After receiving critical acclaim, Bizzy went on to write & release The Gift in 2001, Alpha & Omega in 2004, and Beginning and The End in 2004.

Bizzy's work has been awarded by numerous respected groups, including an ASCAP Award, the Michael Jackson Soul Train Award, a Blockbuster Award, an American Music Award, and the NAACP - Back To School/Stay in School Youth Rally Award.

He has become a member of Hip Hop's elite, collaborating with modern hip-hop legends such as P Diddy, Snoop Dogg, as well as the late Eazy-E, 2Pac, and The Notorious B.I.G.. He married Ronessa Crawford in 2001.
