Album Notes
This release includes a bonus DVD featuring backstage, studio, interview footage.Personnel: Bizzy Bone; Josiah "Ben Rasu" Thomas, Jaron Ben Rasu Thomas, Brian Parker, Hollis Jae, Kevin "Ewok" Rowe, Adrian "Capo" Parlette (vocals).Bizzy Bone has always displayed a knack for standing out in the crowd; as a member of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, he was known for his otherworldly, quick-paced rapping style, and his penchant for trouble. Bizzy's problems have continually permeated his dramatic solo records, which paint peculiar pictures that walk the tightrope between the beautiful and the horrific.On his third (released) record, ALPHA AND OMEGA, the Cleveland, OH performer observes how he "made it rapping about crack" and how he reads "many books to elevate [his] mind." These two statements represent Bizzy Bone remarkably well; he's a rapper full of contradictions. Bizzy dubbed his entourage "the 7th Sign Regime," an appellation that captures the apocalyptic feel of this record. ALPHA AND OMEGA conjures up a misty city alleyway full of dark corners and shadows, with Bizzy Bone hovering over the dead end--part-devil, part-angel, rapping (at times, nearly in tongues) over slow, sinister, creeping melodies.
