With great raps, they were compared to Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, who they later ended up beefing with. When the smash hit "Hay" dropped, it sparked the sales of their album "The Final Tic", which ended up selling over 3 million copies worldwide, going 3X Platinum. They followed in 1998 with the album "Good Side, Bad Side", which went Gold, with the single "Scummy". Another popular track on this album, entitled "Back Against The Wall", was a dis to Cleveland Rap group Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, after a song on their album, "The Art of War", made a negative reference to members of Crucial Conflict. After a ten-year hiatus, Crucial Conflict unexpectedly came back with their independent release of the album "Planet CruCon", in early 2008.
