The EP included their breakout hit single "Thuggish Ruggish Bone".In 1995, the group released its second album, E. 1999 Eternal, which included hits "1st of tha Month" and "East 1999". Their hit song "Tha Crossroads", a tribute to then-recently deceased Eazy-E, won a Grammy Award in 1997. The Art of War, the group's third album, was also released in 1997. Bone Thugs-n-Harmony is the only group that has worked with 2Pac, The Notorious B.I.G., Eazy-E, and Big Pun while they were all still alive. The editors of About.com ranked them #12 on their list of the "25 Best Rap Groups of All Time", and MTV called them "the most melodic hip-hop group of all time."In 2000, BTNHResurrection reached platinum in one month, while 2002's Thug World Order received more moderate sales and promotion, going gold and peaking at #3 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.
