Yep, they're from Cleveland. I believe EZ E got them started right before he died. If you're not sure who EZ E is, don't even worry about it.

I'm pretty sure it was Tupac. I know Tupac gave them their current name. He wanted them just to be called Harmony instead of Bone Thugs. They compromised.

I think it was EZ that "discovered" them though. I'd look it up...but I'm going to take a nap now

That is why they refer to him in pretty much all their songs.
Terrible mistake on my part, I knew they weren't from Cali, but it was just inexcusable. As for the jersey, apparently I am color blind and feel anything that has number 17 is automatically related to Campbell.
