Layzie Bone on Japanese rapper who got robbed trying to find Bone Thugs-N-Harmony: We’re not from the suburbs, we’re from the ghetto

Ryo Muranaka is an aspiring Japanese rapper who sold everything he owned and flew over 6,000 miles to Cleveland in an attempt to track down his rap heroes, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, but got robbed instead. However, he ended up working with Layzie Bone who told Hip-Hop DX - "It kind of reminded me of us going to L.A. to try to find Eazy-E but at the same time, this man came to another country. So, I had my family book him a hotel. After that, I’ve just been developing his talent". Layzie offered words of advice: “I will also say this to other fans and artist that are looking to do the same thing as us or this gentleman did — follow your dreams by all means, but you have to be very careful when you go to places you know nothing about. We’re not from the suburbs, we’re from the ghetto".
