The months before Eazy-E's untimely passing were some of the more memorable times in Bone Thugs-N-Harmony's career. During our talk with Krayzie Bone he revealed it was at then they first received any royalty checks and were notified by Eazy about "major moves" being made in the company. At one point he left the group in a Cali hotel room and hadn't returned for weeks. "We like 'Yo dude, what the hell is going on? At least call us back or send us back to Cleveland - at least we an hustle there," remembers Bone. "We don't know nothing about these California streets. Send us home so we can hustle and make some money."

They later learned from Eazy himself he'd fired Jerry and turned the company over to his wife, Tomica Wright. "Next thing we know they got us in the office talking about they're about to give us our first royalty checks - which was for like 100-something thousand - and we were just like, 'Where's Eazy at?'," Krayzie Bone and the rest of the team wondered.

Watch and listen as Krayzie Bone talks finding out about Eazy's illness on television, inaccuracies in "Straight Outta Compton," and Ice Cube's last time talking to Eazy-E at the legendary Tunnel nightclub in NYC in our latest exclusive clip.
