Background
Bone Thugs-n-Harmony announced on their blog over the summer that they're planning a new album for 2012. They reiterated those facts in a November interview. Krayzie Bone, Bizzy Bone and Layzie Bone more recently have spoken of many new projects coming in 2012. Those projects include an anniversary album featuring all 5 members, a Bizzy & Krayzie duet album, and unreleased compilation albums of unreleased Bone Thugs-n-Harmony material from the mid to late 90's and 2000's named Lost Archives Vol. 1. The group put their differences aside to reunite and belatedly mark their 20th anniversary at the Rock the Bells festival series of 2012 summer. Game sampled Bone Thugs-N-Harmony’s ‘1st Of Da Month‘ on his new posse cut ‘Celebration‘ and also got the legendary group’s blessing. Game also posted a picture on his twitter showing the word bone structured with cannabis. He later confirmed that he is working in the studio with Bone Thugs-n-Harmony on a remix for his first single "Celebration" off his album Jesus Piece. The album was officially denounced by Bone Thugs-n-Harmony in an interview with The Source (magazine) on March 25, 2013. After not appearing on the Everything 100 tour with the rest of the group and Tydollasign, Layzie Bone announced on August 28, 2013 that he would be leaving the group in order to advance his solo career. He stated that after the completion of a few major performances and a television appearance that he no longer has any further contractual obligations to the group. In early November 2013, Krayzie Bone told HipHopDX that the Art of War III album, was only an album featuring Layzie, Bizzy and Flesh Bone, and that himself and Wish Bone had not recorded any material for the album.
