More than thirty years after the debut of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony<\/a><\/strong>, Layzie Bone<\/a><\/strong> continues his solo career with the release of the music video for Running It Big<\/strong><\/em>, taken from his latest album D.A.S.H.<\/strong><\/em>, released on July 3, 2026, through his own label, Harmony Howse Entertainment<\/strong>. The project features fifteen tracks, including notable collaborations with Flesh-n-Bone<\/a><\/strong>, Kurupt<\/a><\/strong>, and Stew Deez<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A veteran who remains true to himself<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Born Steven Howse<\/strong> on September 23, 1974, in Cleveland, Ohio, Layzie Bone<\/strong> is a founding member of Bone Thugs-n-Harmony<\/strong>, a Grammy Award-winning group that pioneered a style blending melodic harmonies with rapid-fire flows, leaving a lasting mark on an entire generation of Hip-Hop. He is the brother of rapper Flesh-n-Bone<\/strong>, who appears on several tracks from D.A.S.H.<\/strong><\/em>, giving the album both a family dimension and a multi-generational appeal alongside its artistic vision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

DASH, a solo project that makes history<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

D.A.S.H.<\/strong><\/em> is far from a one-off project. Layzie Bone<\/strong> has built a successful solo career alongside Bone Thugs-n-Harmony<\/strong> since the mid-1990s, releasing albums such as Thug by Nature<\/em><\/strong> (2001), It\u2019s Not a Game<\/em><\/strong> (2005), and The Meaning<\/em><\/strong> (2011). This new album is therefore a natural continuation of a solo career that has spanned several decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The album also stands out for its entrepreneurial approach. In addition to being available on major streaming platforms, it is sold directly through the artist\u2019s official website in several physical formats, including autographed editions for collectors. It is a way for Layzie<\/strong> to maintain a direct connection with his fans while retaining control over his work through his own label.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A rare consistency in the field<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At a time when many rap veterans are slowing down, Layzie Bone<\/strong> continues to record new projects, expand his list of collaborations, and maintain a direct connection with his audience. This consistency allows him to both preserve the legacy of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony<\/strong> and continue writing the next chapters of his own artistic journey at his own pace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
