Bizzy Bone has walked back his tour “beef” with the rest of Bone Thugs-n-Harmony. Shortly after calling out his legendary group on the song “Bizzy Get’s Busy” from his new album I’m Busy, the pioneering Hip Hop artist suggested it was simply for promo.
At the same time, Bizzy announced he’s back on tour with Bone Thugs for a final hurrah and will be performing at the High Hopes concert series in Ontario, California on November 19 alongside Ice Cube, Cypress Hill, Warren G, Tha Dogg Pound, Method Man, Redman, Xzibit and Berner.
As the Cleveland native explained in an Instagram post on Wednesday (September 14): “This one for the Bone Thug fans. I told y’all i got some surprises with this release. I’M BACK ON TOUR WITH BONE THUGS N HARMONY!!! Ya’ll gonna wanna see this! Last time for bb so lets do this sht BIG!!!!
“Its called the high hopes tour and i will be posting more dates very soon. Haven’t been on the road in a sec so this gonna be good! Big BIG!”
Bizzy Bone continued: “p.s. for the blogs and pages cappin’ there is always a method to my madness. Bring the numbers up , make the sht special. Keep things fresh and spruced. Its called marketing and promoting. Never let the left hand know what the right was doing.
“Anyway…… I’M BUSY @applemusic @itunes @amazonmusic streaming on all platforms. Blogs/pages – fellas I’m independent and number one lets report that. Or OR!!!!! Stfu.

Bizzy Bone fans initially thought he was upset with Bone Thugs when he rapped on “Bizzy Get’s Busy”: “Why this music sound so shitty?/ Why the fuck is Bone Thugs doing a show without Bizzy?/ Rest in peace to fam litty, n-ggas will shoot you in your city/ Why the fuck is Bone Thugs doing a show without Bizzy?/ I’ll say it again, you should be able to say what you want if they really your friends.”
Hours after the song started making the rounds, Krayzie Bone told HipHopDX with a laugh: “He knows the tour schedule. He’s always welcome.” And evidently, that’s true. Tickets for the High Hopes series are available here.
