With
over three decades of shared experience, success and legacy
between them, legendary US hip hop crew BONE
THUGS-N-HARMONY are relishing a new chapter of
opportunity and greatness – reuniting to create new music
and tour internationally once more!
Twenty
years on from their last release, the influential group has
recently celebrated the reveal of new track ‘AWW
SHIT’ (out now via Greenback
Records) and have now dropped details of a highly
anticipated Australia and New Zealand live return this
October.
Performing at
Spark Arena in Auckland,
Aotearoa on Friday October 24, as well as
shows in Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne in Australia;
Bone Thugs-N-Harmony will honour their
timeless catalogue of music, all the while reconnecting with
Australasian audiences and showing them the potential that
is still to be tapped into. Such potential is clear with
their latest release ‘Aww Shit’; all
five members of the group – Bizzy Bone, Wish Bone,
Layzie Bone, Krayzie Bone and
Flesh-n-Bone – flexing over an insatiable
West Coast-style beat.

Joining Bone
Thugs-N-Harmony in Auckland and Australia are two
fellow game-changing hip hop legends,
XZIBIT and TOO
$HORT.
West Coast legend
XZIBIT has long held a strong following in
Aotearoa and Australia, and will be bringing his first
studio album in over a decade KINGMAKER –
featuring collaborations with heavyweights such as
Dr. Dre, Ty Dolla $ign,
Ice Cube and more – to audiences for the
first time. Bay Area legend TOO $HORT is a
West Coast hip hop pioneer, an impactful figure whose music
shaped an entire wave of the West’s movement and
popularity in the ‘90s and ‘00s. Maintaining his
relevance via classic hits and his recent album, SIR
TOO $HORT, VOL. 1 (FREAKY TALES),
Too $hort’s sound is never far from a
club beat or being sampled on a modern day
hit.
Regarded as “the world’s most influential rap
group”, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony’s impact
on the culture and the mainstream is undeniable.
Multi-Platinum selling records, chart-topping projects and
genre defining songs in the bank, this is a group that has
over 60 million records sold to their name,
remaining to this day the best-selling rap group of all
time. Thirty years on, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony
have created a legacy not many can match and in 2025, the
original line-up comes back together, hungrier than
before
