Thug by Nature is the debut album of Layzie Bone under the new monicer L-Burna, a nickname given to him by his sister. The album was released March 20, 2001.

"My Niggaz" features some classic lyrics from Lay's first solo song on B.O.N.E. Enterpri$e, "#1 Assassin". Bone Thugs-N-Harmony member's nickname, which was given to him by his sister a couple of years ago, comes from his desire to put the heat on his competition. Layzie Bone told LAUNCH about his choice of album title. "I just feel like I'm a thug by nature," the Cleveland rapper said. "It's just in my nature to be that way. I'm not trying to be a thug. I was born this way. It's what I'm made up to be." Time Will Tell features Dekumpozed of NX who was first featuring on DJ U-Neek's Ghetto Street Pharmacist, where Layzie does the track Murda Murda with Lethal who is also from NX. You can hear the end of My Niggaz at the beginning of one of the skits. Thug By Nature features an additional disc (there are two) featuring 2 previously unreleased tracks. The CD features a sticker on the case stating that there is an extra CD, no difference in booklet or anthing else. M.O.G. stands for Murder On The Government. 7 ot 6 is a reference to 76 Studios. B.B.O.B. stands for the Bad Boy Of Bone.
