UGK is one of the most influential groups or duos to ever touch the mic. Unfortunately, Chad Butler aka Pimp C passed away in December of 2007. Bun B dropped his solo debut two years prior called Trill. About five months later, Bun B released his second solo joint called II Trill. II Trill became the #1 album in the country and has sold over 300,000 copies. Lil Wayne, Lupe Fiasco, Juvenile, Pimp C, Young Buck, Slim Thug, Chamillionaire, 8Ball & MJG all made appearances. One of my favorite tracks off the album is called You’re Everything. You’re Everything features southern all-stars Rick Ross, David Banner, 8Ball & MJG. With all five of these guys on 1 track you already know it was going to be a classic. You’re Everything by Bun B is my featured Throwback Thursday joint of the week.
My favorite verse probably came from 8Ball as he gave props to a lot of rappers from the south. Geto Boys, UGK, Jeezy, Lil Wayne, Trick Daddy, Three 6 Mafia and T.I. are some of the ones mentioned. As far as the II Trill album goes, it’s dope and has plenty of bangers on it. The song also samples Cry for You from Jodeci, which is nice. These days, Bun B is known for his amazing burgers. The Trill Burgers were voted the best burgers in America on Good Morning America. Check out the track up above. Below you can peep at the track listing and stream link for the II Trill album.
