Sep 28

DOORS: 2:30PM
EVENT: 3:30PM – 4:30PM
Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

Join Cleveland City Councilman Brian Kazy and members of Cleveland City Council to honor legendary hip-hop group Bone Thugs-N-Harmony with the third annual Music Keynote to the City on the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’s Union Home Mortgage Plaza. A special performance will follow the keynote ceremony.

Formed in Cleveland in 1991, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony — comprised of Krayzie Bone, Layzie Bone, Bizzy Bone, Wish Bone, and Flesh-n-Bone — emerged from humble beginnings to achieve international acclaim. After a pivotal audition with rapper Eazy-E in 1993, the group signed with Ruthless Records and released their breakthrough EP Creepin on ah Come Up the following year.

Known for their signature blend of rapid-fire rhymes and harmonies, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony went on to earn a Grammy Award and sell millions of records worldwide. Today, they remain one of Cleveland’s most celebrated musical groups, carrying the city’s name across the globe through their artistry and success.

“This Keynote Award means more than recognition – it’s confirmation. Confirmation that our story, our struggles, and our sound meant something deeper than music. From Cleveland’s corners to the classrooms, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony inspired a generation to believe in their own voice,” said Krayzie Bone. “To be only the third music group to receive this honor? That’s legacy. That’s love. And that’s why we’ve always done it – for the people.”
