Bun B

Bun B

Songwriter, Performer - "Get Throwed," "Sister," "Gimme That," "Big Pimpin"

Bun B is part of the Underground Kings (UGK), the group that inspired an entire region to take the rap game seriously. Rappers Bun B and the late Pimp C - who also handled the production for the duo and set all new standards for beatmaking in the south - had been dabbling in the rap game in other groups throughout the 80's. UGK signed to Jive, released three albums, then Jay-Z called to get the duo on his #1 hit "Big Pimpin'." Bun has stayed busy as one of the most in demand feature artists in hip-hop. Bun has recorded with such hip-hop luminaries as Lil Jon, Beanie Siegel, Scarface, T.I., Pitbull, Nas, Jadakiss, Mannie Fresh, Three Six Mafia, and the list goes on and on. His solo debut, Trill hits from start to finish like a street sweeper on blast. The hardest record to come out of hip-hops hottest region features cuts like the first single "Draped Up," produced by Salih Williams (the man behind "Still Tippin'") and the anthemic KLC produced track "Bun." Bun's got a few more surprises in the bag that he can't let out just yet.
