Pimp was already doing solo tracks between "88/89", he could rap, sing verses/hooks, and produced beats along with strong personality! Total package of an Musician! #UGK4Life.
@@VC9wrwiimo luv 3 stacks but he still hasn't put out an actual Rap/HipHop solo album!, and lyrically I like Bun's verses more than 3 stacks, go listen to "Tough Guy".
I feel what he's saying... it's like, he know he has cold shit, but he doesn't want to try to prove it to anyone... either you fuck wit him or you don't.
Crazy how Bun talked about Ceelo’s Cell Therapy verse because I always say that verse is a top 10 rap verse of all time to me. If you don’t know, go back & listen then go back & understand it. Flawless
After reading your comment I listened as well. He said some thought provoking words for sure. I couldn’t see it as a top 10 for me but I’m sure it resonates with you for your own reasons. Thanks for mentioning it regardless!
I feel that Pimp C doesn't get enough credit (or any credit) as one of the best southern rappers of all-time. His verse on International Players Anthem really touched me.
He is definitely my favorite Rapper of all time! One of the best all around musicians ever. However he could not be the best because Bun B was a way better lyricist than Pimp. However lyrics alone don’t get you number 1. Pimp just had a way with his style and the way he presented himself. Definitely one of kind and to not be duplicated for sure. 🎯 💯
I've always felt that both Andre3000 and Mos Def got bored with rap music. That's why they took their long hiatuses. Those guys are truly artists, because if they're not feeling it, they're not doing it.
Both of them spoke on why they're not active like the artists constantly in rotation now. Has nothing to do with boredom. Mos was aggravated with how the industry is being run and Andre 3000 feels the listeners that have been integrated into Hip Hop NOW pick apart the artists lyrics just to demonize and vilify them because they're not saying anything "politically correct." He also feels what he has to say isn't hip enough for an indoctrinated crowd that only cares about trap music and "don't offend me" liberals.
@@p-jaywade1333 Andre said in an interview that he can’t keep up with todays sound. So boredom does play a role as to why he won’t put out his own stuff.
@@ProfessorCDO I don't see it as boredom per se. Lack of creativity is more like it, and I can understand it, because I was the same way listening to mumble and trap music. It's not inspiring. He needs to stop focusing on mainstream artists and look at others like Corey Gunz, David Bars, and mix psychedelic neo soul funk artists like Lionbabe. Something with some soul. Rapper like him would make a killing if he performed and marketed his music overseas. U.S. pop culture is done when it comes to veteran artists.
Actually 3000 said that the reason he doesn’t make music anyone is because he doesn’t want to know as the old rapper making music. And that when he does make a song he’ll let his son listen to it and get his opinion and if his son didn’t co-sign it then he won’t release it
3000 and Prince both Gemini ♊️‘a like Bun spoke about Pimp C and those instruments. Prince played like 22 instruments and 3000 plays a lot as well. He’s by far my favorite
8ball in my opinion is the most underrated solo artist of all.. That lost album is a true master piece.. Ball did so many productive albums, and collaborated with various artist..
I used to think Andre 3000 and Cee lol were the greatest lyricist in the South. 3k's verse on Thought Process and Cee Lo's verse on Goodie Bag are verses I'll never forget along with Bun's Murder verse and Pimp C's verses on Hi life and Diamonds and Wood.
Ridin Dirty is one of my favorite southern albums. Pimp C's verses on Good Stuff, Ridin Dirty & Diamonds and Wood are my favorites!🌌🙏🏾 #LongLiveThePimp
I heard PIMP C say in an interview once that his greatest verses was on Diamonds & Wood . I have always said that myself. He really outshined Bun on that song. And that's saying a lot. 👑👑🐐🐐🔥🔥
Yea hey ya became bigger than the group.. all mainstream shows like Regis etc used heys for ratings n never wanted to hear big side When he stopped performing n let big boi eat They were seen less n less on certain shows
We need more from Cee-Lo & 3000 #cohabitations..... The best joint till this day is ✊🏾Liberation✊🏾.... That Trax touches my Soul everthime is hear it!!!
People talk about how the south running the rap game now, yes maybe in a commercial sense they are. But the golden era for talent was about 1993 to 2003. Bun, Ball, MJG, 3000, Big Boi, Cee lo, Face, Tip, Wayne, and Luda all rapped unbelievably during that span. Folks just wasn't listening if they said we didn't have MC's spitting real bars back then.
A lot of people will say now they always listened to south rappers but the truth is a people weren't fucking with south rappers like Face, Ugk Ball & G, Trick Daddy, Cash Money etc... especially in the early 90s
@Jack Tripper U right some dude was telling me how much he loved UGK and he started by saying how tight International Playas Anthem was. No real UGK fan starts off with that
Arguably one of the most underrated verses of all time, the man said he pretty much wrote it last minute, and to be a murder… advise anyone whether you heard it or not go back and take another listen
Bro that Murder song by Bun B was STR8 fire I don't think he got a lot of credit for that song and it sounded like a freestyle to me but a very good freestyle.
I will say that Bun B is a southern hip-hop legend today, but I understand what he is saying that Bun B he was never a solo artist until he released his solo debut album in 2005 called Trill which is still a classic album today.
It would be nice though to have an old school collaboration album with 3000, Big Boi, Bun, Ceelo, Goodie Mob, Ball and MJG just for the south one time while these fellas still here.
Bun B said it perfectly. Wick seems to like to paint the picture like 3 stacks can't without Bib Boi. Big Boi is easily top 10 of all time rapping,. But everyone wanna hear 3k. That should tell you something in itself
Ya'll having a nice convo. You can't say Nino without saying Wicked! Those different styles to the music is what makes a group the shyt! Some have more flair and appeal, but you become a group because you notice the greatest in all. Salute Bun B & B High on his platform.
In my opinion Bun B was the best in the group. I think there opposite style played well. Bun B. got that voice and tone for rap. Pimp C. R.I.P. always sounded like he was talk to a street walker.
I especially thought so, when he did that big album in the mid 2000's. It's time for ANOTHER Bun B album.. And if he ain't gonna do it, he needs to put together a " SOUTHERN ALL STARS CLIQUE, GROUP OR TOUR
Dam you never hear anyone humble enough to straight tell u they partner better then them 👌 pimp c was unmatched but Bun B a legend aswell that’s why they we’re so great ❤
Ridin Dirty is a classic and I still listen to it in 2023

The most underrated southern duo from the 90s
Gotta have 8 Ball and MJG

His Murder verse was rated top 25 verse ever in “The Source” magazine.
Yeah fa sho Bun aka "Dick Cheney" is truly a "lyricists' lyricist" ... But has always chosen the humble route which is cool
Just say you like him as a person. Bun B ain't no fuckin "lyricist". That is cap and you need to stop.

Totally agree with you!!
I like Bun B's verse on Traes song "beware"
Cee-Lo's verse on a song from DJ Muggs ' album called "Decisions Decisions" is one of the dopest verses, most clever verses you'll ever hear.
Bun B’sMurder verse has stood the test of time. It’s a top 15 verse in hip hop in my honest opinion.
Bun b I use to cry to your song the story. My family and friends were passing rapidly. I salute your courage for going on when your bro passes
Ridin Dirty is one of my favorite southern albums. Pimp C's verses on Good Stuff, Ridin Dirty & Diamonds and Wood are my favorites!🌌🙏🏾

What an inspiration bun b is. He drops some good knowledge
Super tight and riding dirty my ugk favorites. My dad put me on to UGK. God rest his soul.
Long Live Pimp C
I heard PIMP C say in an interview once that his greatest verses was on Diamonds & Wood . I have always said that myself. He really outshined Bun on that song. And that's saying a lot. 👑👑🐐🐐🔥🔥
Bun's verse on 'High Life' has to resonate with guys who's trying to get out of the street life.
pimp verse hit me more than bun on that one... both verses go tho
Hell both verses. That song was real life. Thats one song I felt like they were equal on. For some reason that particular one.
Andre got tired of the attention…he said it himself
Yea hey ya became bigger than the group.. all mainstream shows like Regis etc used heys for ratings n never wanted to hear big side
When he stopped performing n let big boi eat

That 7 mins was the deepest convo I heard in 2023 that was knowledgable.
Respect on this interview B.....too much truth and perspective wrapped into an hour.
2 Legends interviewing a Legend, giving props to other Legends. 🔥🔥🔥
Legendary Channel👈🏿
Bun B is way too humble to be the way he give himself credit for
Pimp was cold he right
EVERY ONE of these clips wit Bun goes hard
Ceelo was a solo artist when he first started Khujo, and T-Mo was Goodie Mob, and Big Gipp was in another group
I will say that Bun B is a southern hip-hop legend today, but I understand what he is saying that Bun B he was never a solo artist until he released his solo debut album in 2005 called Trill which is still a classic album today.
Long Live The Pimp 3000 easily a top 5 rapper of all time.
Ridin dirty is my top album murder is my fave track ever
Long live Sweet Jones
Murder is my favorite song of all time
I'm rereading my Pimp C book by Julia Beverly 💯
Talk to me 💯
Man, it’s something about “Murder”..When that scratch comes in and that beat drops I’m turning that shit ALL the way up.
This Nigga just said I wrote Murder the day of! Are you paying attention? That was one of the hardest ever and he just rolled it off the top!
Genius.
Big Gipp came thru with his verse ✊🏾
Nigga sleep on Gipp frfr 💯
Now I like dis interview right here
You have to RESPECT Bun; I’ve never seen a more humble rapper.
It would be nice though to have an old school collaboration album with 3000, Big Boi, Bun, Ceelo, Goodie Mob, Ball and MJG just for the south one time while these fellas still here.
Add Scarface, Willie D, Z-Ro, Lil Wayne, Tip and Luda. I think we can launch the planet then…

Always always have respect for brother Bun B.
Bun B seem genuine as Heck and void of any ego here. No agenda just truths. Refreshing
Love hearing these stories
IDK ABOUT YALL BUT IM JUST SATISFIED WITH A ANDRE 300 R&B SOUL ROCK ALBUM .. IF HE DOESNT WANNA RAP I'LL SETTLE FOR DA FUNK.
If bun b want to be humble and give all praise to pimp then let him be. But he can't deny that he himself is one of the coldest to ever do it.
love hearin Bun B talk about “a b3 and a leslie”
3 stacks really is the definition of Illmatic
CeeLo verse on fly away still to this day is the hardest
I believe Andre 3000 don’t like the spotlight and when rap changed he wasn’t feeling it
Bun a legend
Bun b is so humble 💯 pure legend
1 Love to the GREAT BUN B.
the world needs a ugk biopic
the full story needs to be told with a big budget, and the perfect actors.
And the truth needs to be told which is Pimp didn't really fuck with Bun like that...
This was heavy. Bun speaking straight facts.
Classic album
Dropping gems!!
Bun is right. Rappers didn't really have rap money in the 90s. That's why when Snopp Dogg said Master P had the money, Snoop wasn't lying.
Bun B has one of the dopest voices in all of h
Hip Hop
Could also say one of the most recognisable voices ever
Mannnnnnn delivering soul food! Bun went and got a job! Salute that one! It’s a lot rappers for sho need jobs but … neva mind!
Dawg Bun Speaks so well
The fact that he wrote his Murder verse (Bun’s best verse of all time) in a hurry at the last minute is crazy.
Wick man u overlooking Pimp C solo album, that thang went hard!
REST IN PEACE CHAD BUTLER
He wrote murder in the studio "the day of"😳😳😵💫
Nostalgia Drink & Smoke sessions, 🙌 " UGK, Ridin Dirty " 🙌 was absolutely phenomenal !.. God Macin originators ..
I'm from Houston, Tx grow up on UGK. I feel like Bun B is more lyrical than Pimp C but Pimp C was great at doing the beats and the hooks.
Agree
Would be nice to see Bun on a hard Dr. Dre beat. Something to let Bun get really busy on.🔥🔥🔥
Dear Bun,
You actually CAN walk in a room (with your arms out) and do that!
Bun B one of the older generations of pure lyricist. No cap. Like lil Wayne for the next generation, and then lil baby for this generation, etc.
Bun is a great Dude…….✊🏽
Bun B said it perfectly. Wick seems to like to paint the picture like 3 stacks can't without Bib Boi. Big Boi is easily top 10 of all time rapping,. But everyone wanna hear 3k. That should tell you something in itself
That would be a crazy album between cee Lo big boi and bun 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Human Ears are NOT ready for that ...
1st and bun b a real one
Every album they made was classic facts 💯
Never will be another Pimp Chad !
KING of da TRILL
I respect the hell outta Bun just keeping it real about Pimp!!!

YA'LL REAL MEN OVER THERE THAT KEEP IT REAL..
No lies told here! Love you Big Bro!!!
To me, Bun was the premiere person until Pimp got out of jail.
In my opinion Bun B was the best in the group. I think there opposite style played well. Bun B. got that voice and tone for rap. Pimp C. R.I.P. always sounded like he was talk to a street walker.
I especially thought so, when he did that big album in the mid 2000's. It's time for ANOTHER Bun B album.. And if he ain't gonna do it, he needs to put together a " SOUTHERN ALL STARS CLIQUE, GROUP OR TOUR
Big ups to Bun… he gets it… he understands the big picture…
Still Bump that whole album
