I've have never heard them say Bone was their influence (not doubting your statement I've just never heard it). Admittedly though I didn't hear anything from Bone until Thuggish Ruggish Bone hit here in what the summer of 94-95? The second version of Crucial Conflict was started in 1994 thats the one thats around now. That wasn't the original group. Wildstyle and Kilo are two of the original members of Crucial Conflict.They even said themselves Bone was their influence. Bone was doing it since 92 CC came around in the underground in about 93, that was when Faces OF Death was out. (Bone's first album, under the name B.O.N.E. Enterprise)
CC was just wack to me.
Where you get Do Or Die from? They didn't hit the scene until 96 and even then they wasn't doing shit in the underground like that. You given these dudes way too much credit.
As far as the Do-Or-Die thing I don't know what part of the city you're from but I'm on the west side and I heard DoD and CC years before I heard Bone. They blew up with Po Pimp but I had heard and had tapes of them a long time before that. All these dudes hung out in K-Town all the time which is probably why I heard them a lot sooner.
Weird incident not really related to what we're talking about but I remember this dude getting shot in front of the crib and seeing those cats (Crucial Conflict) who were chilling on the block come and check dude out to see if he was O.K

And just for the record I'm not stating that these dudes are great or the best just saying I heard them years before I heard Bone.
