"Thuggish Ruggish Bone" is the debut single by American hip hop group Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, from their debut EP Creepin on ah Come Up. It features Louisiana-born singer Shatasha Williams.[1] The song reached #22 on the Billboard Hot 100. The song was included in the soundtrack of the video game True Crime: Streets of LA; and the second half of Layzie Bone's verse was reused on the track "Family Scriptures" on the Mo Thugs Family debut album, Family Scriptures.[citation needed]
The music video (directed by Jerry Heller) was shot near the Cuyahoga River on Cleveland's westside, near from the Lakeview Estates public housing units. Notably, the filming of the video was interrupted by a drive-by shooting, however nobody on set was injured.[2] The music video also featured rapper Eazy-E.[citation needed]
