@troyballard8607 5 лет назад

The beautiful thing about this interview is Bun speaks of Hip-Hop as collective and not as just being regional. Hip-Hop needs more OGs to speak in forums such as this that promotes an intellectual discourse on the culture. I am a fifty-four year old Hip-Hop head that is desperately seeking not only the use of metaphors and verbs, but also dialogue that uplifts Hip-Hop in a positive light.. Big up to Talib, love how you continue to move Hip-Hop forward!!!! Talib...I have never worked in the music industry, but I would love to work with or for you in some capacity.

This was unequivocally the best interview with Bun i ever heard, and im an old head who was _waitin_ for Ridin Dirty to drop after seein the "coming soon" ads in The Source. 1:07:05 this was expressed _perfectly!_ Good look on the interview Talib! Hoping that the new Blackstar with Madlib production isnt just a rumor. *RIP PIMP C*

@HitNRunElRadawi 5 лет назад

I remember Bun coming out to do a show in Oslo (Norway) way back in 2010 when I was 17. Being underage I couldn't go to the concert but I remember sneaking in to the afterparty and Bun was getting drinks at the bar. So I went towards him with my digital camera (lmao) hoping to get a pic with him, unfortunately his security stopped me and told me that it's gonna cost $20 to get a pic. Boy... Not mad at Bun tho, still been UGK for life regardless of the security. Great interview.

@CapCityMover 5 лет назад

That was probably his security charging you. Bun would never see that $20 or cared.

@deleonlamar3812 5 лет назад

To Kweli & Bun B.... I'm not anti social but I have no interest in being social on any platform. This is definitely my 1st. time and probably my last doing so... But my heart is speaking so I must. I want to thank all involved with this project foremost as a grateful fan. My appreciation and Love for you Gentlemen is unbound... I've watched you both become the stewards of growth when opportunity is realized. Hip Hip has been the arc in my spirit and the soul of every step on my way through life. And to have a front row seat to a personal conversation between men is an absolute treasure. Not just for the Black involved, But for the content that evolved so organically. It's extremely hard to be casual in a professional setting and not lose the comfort. Especially when the energy in the room has the frequency of a beat that you can't stop nodding your head to. Please consider this as my nod to you both as we make eye contact in passing... No problems wanted just all due Respect. So dope... The Peace is with you!

Just think, Smoking with Biggie (and some of our other legends) is our modern day of shaking hands with Sinatra. I'd imagine on a music level the people that were involved in each of their careers are similar to each other also in level/legend. That's something you must give MJ, he did have much of a full life in the music business. In all aspects, these legends affected more than most of the musicians around them...in their genre and outside of their time too. Dope interview/conversation!
