Crazy Bone's childhood

The most original and lyrical rapper of our time, Krayzie Bone, was born on 17.06.73/XNUMX/XNUMX in Cleveland, USA. And then his name was Anthony Hendersen.

Anthony was born in East Cleveland, an impoverished area where crime flourished. It is difficult to call a happy childhood in poverty, among gangsters and drug addicts, in an area where human life means nothing.

Four generations of the Hendersen family were believers, were members of the sect of Jehovah's Witnesses. Apparently, this saved the guy from an unenviable future in drug dens or behind bars. After all, such was the life of his peers. But all this childish horror was embodied in the texts of his compositions.
