Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, the legendary hip-hop group, made a triumphant and unexpected appearance on ‘Everybody’s Live With John Mulaney.’ The surprise performance came after host John Mulaney faced an amusing defeat in a physical altercation against three 14-year-old boys. Seizing the moment, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony graced the stage to deliver their iconic 1996 hit “The Crossroads.”
It all started when Mulaney disclosed on his late-night show about his failed attempts to secure Bone Thugs-N-Harmony as guests earlier. His plan involved a staged scenario where actor Richard Kind’s fictitious tortoise would pass away, and the rap group would appear to perform. However, Mulaney’s efforts were thwarted by an imposter posing as the band’s manager.
Reflecting on this comedic debacle, Mulaney candidly shared with his audience how some guests had misled him for money before canceling last minute. He confessed,
“I’m genuinely worried. After a little investigating, I have come to believe that the man I was talking to was not the manager of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony.”
This incident added an unexpected twist to what was supposed to be a lighthearted bit.
In response to Mulaney’s call for clarity from Bone Thugs-N-Harmony members, it seems that someone truly affiliated with the group intervened and orchestrated their memorable appearance on the show. To further amp up the entertainment factor, the ensemble even presented a wrestling belt trophy to honor the teenage boys who bested Mulaney in combat.
Recently reuniting for their track “Aww Shit,
” which marked their return after nearly 15 years with all five original members – Krayzie Bone, Layzie Bone, Bizzy Bone, Wish Bone, and Flesh-N-Bone – together again since 2010’s Uni5: The World’s Enemy album release announcement by Greenback Records revealed that this single is just a prelude to a much-anticipated new album.
Excitingly enough, fans can catch Bone Thugs-N-Harmony live at various summer concerts lined up including appearances at Roots Picnic’s Class of ’95 in Los Angeles’ Hollywood Bowl and Kings of the West traveling festival stops. Despite only four members appearing on ‘Everybody’s Live,’ their energetic performance left an indelible mark.
John Mulaney himself expressed his enthusiasm for featuring music acts on his show sharing that these segments are among his personal favorites stating “
there’s no part of the week that’s as exciting as when we first rehearse music.” Each musical collaboration is carefully selected based not only on musical talent but also visual appeal fit for television audiences leaving viewers eagerly anticipating each episode.
