Come on, man.
0:03
That was our first time sitting down
0:06
chopping it up, Trae tha Truth, aka B.
0:08
Yeah.
0:08
Uh-huh.
0:09
Way back in 2005, that man invited me
0:12
into his house. I brag about it all the
0:13
time.
0:14
Okay.
0:15
Cuz they had They had some nice ass
0:16
couches, man. The furniture was
0:17
impeccable. I remember it.
0:20
Incredible.
0:22
The The dining room table, I was like,
0:24
"Is that cherry wood?" I mean, jeez.
0:27
He already had it before he had it, man.
0:30
And he's here with us today, man. And
0:31
now he's a coworker, the one AND ONLY
0:33
ICONIC BUN B. BUN
0:34
HEY!
0:36
BUN B.
0:41
BUN.
0:42
I'M ABSOLUTELY HUMBLED
0:44
BY THAT INTRODUCTION.
0:47
ABSOLUTELY. WOW. That was a I swear I
0:50
was I'm going to tell you, man, that was
0:51
a very, very pivotal point in my life,
0:54
right?
0:55
Mhm.
0:56
A lot of things were uncertain to me.
0:58
The only thing that was certain to me
0:59
was that it was UGK for life. That was
1:01
the only thing that I could count on,
1:03
you know, that, my wife, and my God.
1:05
That's all I had in that moment. And you
1:08
know, it was a major restructuring
1:09
moment for me. And now look at life now.
1:12
Look where I'm at today.
1:13
Look where
1:14
I had no idea what tomorrow was going to
1:15
bring then. I just had faith. And look
1:17
at me now.
1:18
Mhm.
1:19
Wow, man. Bun B, absolutely, man.
1:23
I I wouldn't have even been able to tell
1:25
because
1:26
your environment didn't give off that
1:29
vibe. Your environment gave off a lot of
1:31
love, a lot of a lot of emotional Well,
1:34
a lot of family stability, at least, in
1:37
the time that we we did that
1:38
conversation right there. And then,
1:41
um and so it's good, man. Bun, you
1:43
you've had such an extraordinary first
1:45
half, man. You ain't even at halftime
1:47
yet, as far as I'm concerned. And now
1:49
with this new venture, it's just the
1:51
possibilities
1:53
are limitless. Let's talk about this
1:55
first.
1:57
The Two Trill Show. Talk What is The Two
2:00
Trill Show?
2:02
All right. So, as you know, I'm a
2:04
listener to Shade 45, right? I don't
2:07
just call in and do interviews. I
2:08
actually subscribe. I listen to shows
2:10
all the time. And when
2:13
LL started Rock the Bells channel, I was
2:15
very excited because I'm a part of that
2:17
era. And you know, so a lot of them are
2:20
my musical contemporaries, good friends
2:22
of mine. I call some of these people my
2:24
brothers. And not just people from the
2:26
South, like everyone from that era cuz
2:28
we all toured together. We all know each
2:30
other. We all get along very well, you
2:32
know what I'm saying? And
2:34
you know, so I turned into the station.
2:36
I listened to the shows. I heard a lot
2:37
of great music on there, a lot of
2:39
classic hip-hop. But I felt like there
2:41
was like this void, right? And it's not
2:44
like they weren't playing Southern
2:45
hip-hop, but I'm like, whoever's playing
2:48
the Southern hip-hop doesn't really know
2:50
how deep the catalog goes, right? Like
2:52
we could do a year just on Texas. We
2:55
could do 2 years on Louisiana, right?
2:58
Florida, Atlanta. I mean, there were
2:59
thousands of groups who contributed to
3:02
the culture. And you know, let's say one
3:04
out of every hundred who wanted to hit
3:06
it big, hit it big. But that doesn't
3:08
mean the other 99 didn't make it for
3:11
lack of effort, right? You got a lot of
3:13
people that hustle very hard. They
3:14
grinded very hard. They they eked out a
3:17
space in that area. And they were
3:19
extremely important. So,
3:21
while they might not have been a
3:22
household name nationally,
3:24
they absolutely were
3:27
they were the [ __ ] where they were, you
3:28
know?
3:28
Mhm.
3:29
And so, we want to make sure that we
3:31
don't forget a lot of these people who
3:33
all made great contributions
3:35
to the culture. And so, I was like, you
3:37
know, I'd love to really do a show that
3:39
focused around that, right? Just focus,
3:43
you know, directly on classic Southern
3:45
hip-hop music, right? Because I know a
3:47
lot of the guys I used to tour through
3:49
all these very small towns. So, there's
3:50
groups that, you know, I'm sure people
3:53
have never heard of. Some people that is
3:54
south haven't heard of all these groups,
3:56
much less in other areas. And so, I want
3:58
people that appreciate, you know, 8Ball
4:01
& MJG, UGK, OutKast, Uncle Luke, you
4:06
know, Poison Clan, Geto Boys, you know,
4:09
all of these groups, you know, Dayton
4:11
Family, Hard Boys, you know, all of
4:13
these groups from this era. I want them
4:15
to have a place where they can go and
4:17
celebrate that era and and celebrate the
4:20
artists that made that music. So, we're
4:21
not only going to play their music,
4:22
we're going to allow them to come in, do
4:24
interviews, you know, we want to give
4:26
everybody their flowers while we can.
4:28
So, that's it.
4:28
There you go. I love it, Bun. I love it.
4:31
And that's what this is.
4:32
That's That's That's purely what this
4:33
is. This is purely for the love of of of
4:37
the culture.
4:39
So,
4:40
I'm so aligned with you because when
4:42
Heather B and I first came on the air,
4:44
Tracy's, you know,
4:45
soon afterwards, that was the goal,
4:48
giving people their flowers. That's why
4:50
when you hear those introductions,
4:52
that's that they were huge back, you
4:54
know, we first came on the air, man. I
4:55
had a lot of wind. So, them
4:56
introductions could go four or five
4:58
minutes, you know.
4:59
Um
5:01
you know,
5:02
you know, quarantine got me sitting down
5:04
a little bit, but that's what it was all
5:06
about. I'm curious, Bun. By the way,
5:08
that's a great concept, and the Two
5:09
Trill Show is premiering April 14th at
5:13
12:00 p.m.
5:15
Eastern, 9:00 p.m. Pacific on Rock the
5:19
Bells Radio, channel 43. You have to
5:21
tell me the conversation with LL. How
5:23
did that go?
5:25
I mean, it went well, you know, it was
5:27
basically what I was just saying. I was
5:28
like, you know, I I think there's a
5:30
great place
5:31
to um
5:32
to
5:34
take advantage of this amazing amazing
5:37
catalog, huge catalog of southern music
5:41
out there, right? I could I could do
5:42
years and years of shows like this. And
5:45
um you know, so but initially it was
5:47
just like, you know, I think there
5:48
should be a show, right? The initial
5:50
conversation was I think there should be
5:52
a show, right?
5:53
Mhm.
5:54
And so LL's response was like, well, you
5:56
want to do it?
5:57
And I was like, well, I mean, I can do
6:00
it.
6:02
You know, I mean, I just want to make
6:03
sure it it can get done right, you know?
6:06
And um I was very curious about how to
6:08
make it work and make it happen like
6:10
during the pandemic. But you know, and
6:13
and he was like, look, there's there's a
6:14
couple of different options that we
6:15
have. So we chose the one particular
6:17
path and I think it's going to work, you
6:19
know? Um I have two amazing co-hosts
6:22
with me. Um
6:23
my brother Chuck D is is my co-host on
6:25
the show and my DJ on the show is DJ
6:28
Domo. He's the Geto Boys DJ as well as
6:30
Scarface's DJ and he's been my DJ. And
6:33
so, you know, he's been on the road for
6:35
20 almost 30 No, Domo Yeah, he probably
6:39
He would probably be right at 30 years
6:41
right now. Of just being on the road, um
6:43
you know, in the culture. Um he's toured
6:46
with the Geto Boys, obviously toured
6:47
with everybody, the best of everybody.
6:50
And so he's got great stories, but he's
6:51
also got a very deep catalog of music to
6:54
draw from. And Chuck is obviously who he
6:57
is. He's my little brother. He's a He's
6:58
really entertaining, you know, he's
7:01
It's good It's a very fun show. It's a
7:03
very light-hearted show. We we take the
7:05
Southern culture seriously, but we don't
7:07
take ourselves too seriously. We like to
7:08
have fun and you know, that's what we
7:10
want to do is celebrate everything, you
7:12
know? It's not a documentary. It's a
7:14
party.
7:14
Two Grown Men Show is a party.
7:16
There you go, man. Bun B is here. He's a
7:18
member of the family now, man. I could
7:19
just say, you know, I work with Bun B.
7:22
Uh
7:25
I get to tell people I work with Sway.
7:27
Oh, come on, man. I'll take that, too,
7:29
man. And then we both get to say we work
7:32
with LL.
7:34
I love I love it.
7:35
There it is.
7:36
Like really honestly, Sway, who would
7:37
have thought? Like
7:39
Come on, man. LL is our dude, man. Like
7:41
I you know, LL I tell him in his face
7:43
now, man, Bun. I tell him L. Like, L for
7:46
me, I say it all the time, for my
7:49
personal number one
7:51
personal goat, it's always been LL cuz
7:54
the impact that he's had on me. He made
7:56
me want to rap. He He made me want to He
7:59
made me audacious. He gave me audacity,
8:03
you know, unbeknownst to him. I've
8:05
always loved L's moves as a businessman,
8:08
as a transition from a MC to an actor, a
8:11
filmmaker, series, you know, hosting the
8:14
Grammys, all these different things he
8:16
does, and he kills it. They do a great
8:18
job with with Rock the Bells. So,
8:20
congratulations on that. Bizzle, you
8:22
want to jump in?
8:23
Man, listen, Bun. I'm just so happy for
8:25
you. I I read this, and I was like,
8:27
"Wow, it makes so much sense." Because I
8:30
think, too, it's also for people like
8:32
me, growing up in New Jersey, being so
8:35
close to New York, in particular
8:36
Manhattan, and and and listening to
8:39
program radio, terrestrial radio, our
8:42
ears got used to a certain style and a
8:45
type of hip-hop or rap. And it wasn't
8:47
until I was a a 24/7 recording artist
8:50
was I able to go outside of my regional
8:53
circle and appreciate hip-hop from from
8:55
other regions. And so, I think what what
8:58
I'm hearing you saying, your show is
9:00
also going to serve as a history lesson,
9:02
too, for for a lot of us who didn't
9:04
appreciate grow up appreciating the
9:07
music coming from the South, who weren't
9:09
familiar with a lot of groups, will get
9:11
and be reintroduced to groups. And I
9:13
think that it takes a certain person
9:15
with a certain type of history and
9:16
respect to do something like that. And I
9:18
you're the perfect person for it. So,
9:20
thank you for that because a lot of us
9:22
were not familiar.
9:25
You hit it on the head. You hit it on
9:26
the head, Heather. Like, honestly,
9:28
that's all it is, right? Like, I know
9:31
that I've always known, right, that if
9:33
given an even playing ground and the
9:35
opportunity to present ourselves in an
9:38
honest and genuine way that people would
9:40
love the South. And now we fast forward
9:43
30 years later and we see a very deep
9:45
appreciation for all things Southern.
9:48
And so that's all I want to do is
9:49
celebrate that and then like I said,
9:51
some of the songs I'm going to play, I
9:53
may play something from Houston that if
9:56
you were in Georgia, it didn't get
9:58
there. So you might not have ever heard
9:59
that record before. You know, I may play
10:01
something from deep Florida that if you
10:04
were in Oklahoma, you didn't get that
10:06
record. You know? So it's going to be
10:08
education and it's that's like I said,
10:10
this is not just a Southern show for
10:12
Southern people because Southern music
10:14
permeates everywhere. It's all around
10:16
the world. So this is a show for people
10:18
who appreciate Southern culture or even
10:20
if you just want to know more about it.
10:22
Like let me turn on this and I remember
10:24
some Outkast records and I remember, you
10:26
know, UGK and Jay-Z, but what what else
10:29
you got, you know? They're going to find
10:30
some music they've never heard before.
10:32
They're going to hear a group they've
10:33
never heard of before. They're going to
10:35
fall in love with it and that's what
10:37
it's all about. That's all we want to
10:38
do.
10:39
Mhm.
10:40
Trae Tha Truth G
10:41
Love it. Bun, you know, for so many
10:44
years now you have been
10:46
a guiding light, a mentor for so many
10:48
people like well beyond the gates of the
10:51
South and I wonder for yourself in this
10:53
stage of your life, who is your mentor?
10:56
Do you have that?
10:59
Yeah, absolutely. So um you know, I I
11:01
tend to run um everything through my
11:04
pastor. Right. And um you know, cuz he's
11:08
and not just because he's a he's a a
11:10
Christian man, he's a honorable man, but
11:12
he's a worldly man. Like he's lived a
11:13
life and he understands things on a very
11:16
deep level. And he understands where I'm
11:19
trying to go. Like at this point, my
11:21
life is no longer about myself, right? I
11:23
did good. I had a great time. Um but I
11:26
have different priorities right now and
11:27
there's a different there's a different
11:29
legacy I want to leave behind that's not
11:30
just musical, you know? And so, I'm
11:33
trying to make certain decisions that
11:35
would
11:35
that would lend itself towards
11:38
a life of service, so to speak. And so,
11:41
that's kind of what this show is, right?
11:43
Is giving back to a culture that gave me
11:45
so much. The house I live in, the car I
11:48
drive, I met my woman doing this, I'm
11:50
able to, you know, give my children and
11:52
my grandchildren a, you know,
11:54
a great life, but I don't want to just
11:56
leave them publishing
11:58
and you know, I want to leave them, you
12:00
know, principal life. I want to see
12:02
them, have them see me doing real
12:05
things. My grandkids have seen me do
12:07
music and on stage and on TV and all of
12:09
that, but I want them to see me active
12:11
and serving my community, putting
12:13
together rallies, protests, feeding
12:15
hungry people, you know, helping the
12:17
homeless, underserved communities, you
12:19
know, children in shelters, that kind of
12:21
thing. Those are the things that that I
12:23
want them to remember me for. You know,
12:25
because when all this is all said and
12:27
done, when I'm gone, right? People will
12:30
say, "Hey, he was a great artist." But I
12:32
would really love for people to tell my
12:34
grandkids, "Hey, I knew your
12:35
grandfather. He was a good man."
12:37
You know?
12:37
Wow.
12:38
Bun B.
12:39
There it is.
12:40
There it is, man. We got people on the
12:42
line wanting to talk to you, Bun. We got
12:43
Tyriq from PA.
12:45
it.
12:45
Tyriq, grand risings. How you doing?
12:48
Hey, Ty.
12:48
Grand risings. Grand risings, family.
12:50
Grand risings.
12:51
Hey, hey. Man, we got we got Bun B on.
12:54
Hey, Bun B. My man. You are a legacy,
12:57
bro. I love you. I love your music. Hey,
13:00
I'm 56 years old.
13:02
I've been hip-hop since hip-hop been
13:04
hip-hop.
13:05
So, like, for me to hear someone like
13:07
you come on the radio to do what you're
13:09
doing, this this just keeps the keeps
13:12
the culture
13:13
rising.
13:16
Man, thank you so much, man. Thank you.
13:18
That's the whole purpose, man. Like, I
13:19
want to show people that
13:22
you know, we all gain from this in in
13:24
some form or fashion. We got to figure
13:26
out how we give back to it, you know? If
13:28
I changed my life, I've literally
13:30
traveled all over the world. I met
13:32
presidents, I've, you know,
13:35
I've eaten dinner in,
13:37
you know, in palaces in France and
13:40
And we see this, bro. We see this. We
13:42
see you all over the world. We just want
13:43
to give you your flowers.
13:44
I'm saying?
13:45
It all came from hip-hop, man, and I'm
13:47
so blessed and I'm so happy, you know?
13:50
And so, I just want to give back to
13:52
something that gave so much to me, you
13:54
know? And cuz that's what this
13:55
relationship has to be in order to keep
13:57
it alive. It's got to be reciprocal. We
13:59
got to give hip-hop everything that it
14:01
gave us or or at least some level of
14:04
equivalent so that it sustains itself
14:07
because otherwise other people give and
14:08
take from the culture and they sustain
14:10
it and that's not right.
14:12
Okay, Tyrese, thank you for your call.
14:13
You're a citizen brother, you're a
14:14
citizen.
14:15
Sway in the morning.
14:16
I'm going to Washington. We got Will
14:18
from Washington. You in DC or you in
14:20
Washington state, Will?
14:22
Hey, good morning, brother. Well, good
14:24
rising. Hey, what's up? Well, I'm in
14:26
Washington state. Uh, I spoke with you a
14:28
few times. I'm that local soldier that's
14:29
up here from the south.
14:31
Yes. Yes. How you been, bro? How you
14:33
been?
14:33
I'm I've been I've been good. I've been
14:35
listening to y'all every day, you know,
14:37
and I appreciate what y'all do, but to
14:39
my brother Bun, man, first I want to
14:41
say, man, I'm still repping uh
14:43
your brother Pimp C, man. Rest in heaven
14:45
where he at. And I've been rocking with
14:47
y'all since day one, but I'm just and
14:48
I'm glad you got this platform out
14:50
there.
14:51
Uh, I'm just wondering, man, are you
14:52
going to take it back to uh when y'all
14:54
first started out, some of them
14:56
underground hits that a lot of people
14:57
don't know about as well from y'all?
15:00
Oh, yeah, I'm I'm probably going to go
15:01
before us, right? Cuz I want to try to
15:05
to tell as much of this story as
15:06
possible, right? So, for a lot of people
15:09
for Houston, they don't really find out
15:11
about Houston until Mind Playing Tricks
15:13
on Me comes out, right? Right. But
15:16
there's like but there's dozens of
15:17
groups, literally dozens of groups who
15:20
were making music in Houston and making
15:22
noise in Houston, you know?
15:25
And so I want to play some of that. I'm
15:26
going to play some Street Military. You
15:28
know what I'm saying?
15:28
Oh, yes. Oh, yes.
15:30
I want to play some I want to play some
15:31
I want to play some
15:33
I want to play some OG style, you know?
15:36
Yeah, man.
15:36
I know you're going to hit some of them
15:37
them them old grey screw tapes.
15:41
Oh, absolutely. You know, with June
15:42
27th, you know, we got to celebrate
15:44
Screw. You know? So, the week of June
15:46
27th, we'll definitely have a Screw Day.
15:49
And we'll kind of help explain it and
15:50
walk people through that, you know? I'm
15:52
not just going to play it because some
15:54
people may not know everything about it
15:55
or understand it. So, that's what we're
15:57
going to do. We're not just going to
15:58
play this music. We're going to walk
15:59
people through the culture. We're going
16:00
to tell stories because somewhere
16:02
between the five people in that room,
16:04
we're going to have some connection to
16:06
some of these people that we're playing.
16:07
So, it's it's going to be educational.
16:09
It's going to be entertainment, like,
16:11
you know what I'm saying? Um it's it's a
16:13
What What is it Caris said? Edutainment,
16:15
you know?
16:15
Mhm. It's going to be edutainment. I
16:17
love it, man. Hey, Will, you're a
16:18
citizen, man. Thank you for rocking with
16:19
us day in and DAY OUT.
16:21

16:23

16:25

16:34
Eastern, 9:00 p.m. Pacific on Rocker
16:36
Bells Channel 43. Jason in Houston, what
16:39
would you like to say?
16:41
Hey, first and foremost, I I just want
16:42
to say thanks, Bun B, for representing
16:44
Houston and PA.
16:45
Uh we always represent you down here.
16:47
I'm glad that Jay-Z put you on the map
16:49

16:50

16:53

16:54

16:56
You do a great thing for the community.
16:58
Hey, Jay, he put Jay-Z on the map.
17:01
Let him live, Sway.
17:03
Okay, let him live.
17:04
Oh, yeah, he did put Jay-Z on the map.
17:06
He didn't mean anything by it. He was
17:07
just happy about what happened after
17:09
that. So, I I understand I understand
17:11
the sentiment. He didn't mean anything
17:12
by
17:12
Oh, no, I'm I'm happy for you so much,
17:14
man, for calling in.
17:17
Yeah, I mean, we listened to you before
17:18
that, you know, and then when when that
17:20
big thing came out, man, it just blew up
17:22
and I'm so glad so happy I'm I'm glad
17:24
you represent the community, you know
17:25
what I mean?
17:26
See, that's what See, that's what he
17:28
meant, Swea. That's why I wanted to
17:29
That's what he meant.
17:29
You know? Yeah, you got to let Sometimes
17:32
you got to let it breathe, Swea. You got
17:33
to let it breathe.
17:33
Got to let it breathe. That's my bae.
17:35
That's my old motto right there. Let it
17:36
breathe. I know. I know. Hey, J.
17:39
He's a citizen.
17:40
You see me, I'm a shooter. You I'm a
17:41
shooter first, Bun. I just wanted you to
17:43
know that, man.
17:45
Hey, you a citizen, man. All right, we
17:47
appreciate that. You know why I do that,
17:49
Bun? Because what I learned if you don't
17:51
correct the truth sometimes it goes
17:53
uncorrected and things just float out
17:56
there. So, that's why I might I may have
17:58
jumped. Uh but the other thing I want to
18:00
say to you is
18:02
I want to commend you for your political
18:04
prowess and how you've been a liaison
18:07
for us what's going on in Texas. Uh
18:10
especially in these different crises.
18:13
When you talk about the power grid and
18:14
everything that was happening
18:17
in Texas with the power grid and
18:18
electricity going out and people
18:20
struggling and and you talking about
18:22
natural disasters, whether it's floods
18:24
or otherwise, you've always been 10 toes
18:26
down and even in this in this COVID
18:29
era, you know, you've been very
18:31
informative. You've always been a
18:32
liaison for us. You know, it's been
18:34
times when you would call the show and
18:35
give us updates on whatever was
18:37
happening at that time. Your political
18:39
aspirations, are you are you going to
18:41
continue with that?
18:45
Um we're exploring different options in
18:48
that area
18:49
so to speak. We're looking at forming an
18:51
exploratory committee
18:53
um
18:54
to discuss different options in that
18:56
space. While I won't commit to it today,
18:58
I will say that
19:00
you know, something's got to change, you
19:03
know? And if you know, you're in an
19:05
opportunity to be able to change things
19:08
and you don't do it then
19:11
when things go bad, it it's kind of your
19:14
fault, you know? So, if if there's a way
19:17
that I can help better this world and my
19:20
community by public service, then I have
19:23
to at least consider that.
19:25
You know? I can't just outright say no,
19:28
I'm not going to do it. I have to at
19:29
least consider it.
19:31
You know, especially if it's the right
19:32
thing to do. Because there are a lot of
19:34
people around here because our mayor
19:36
This is our last mayor's term. It is
19:38
It's our mayor's last term. And there's
19:40
a lot of people that are considering
19:41
trying to run for that office. And one
19:45
guy in particular throws his hat in the
19:46
ring, you know,
19:48
it it could potentially be a problem for
19:50
this community. You know, this is a a
19:52
blue city but in a red state. And the
19:55
last thing we need right now in this
19:57
current political uh
20:00
in environment is
20:02
a Republican mayor of Houston. It would
20:04
just literally knock this city back 30,
20:07
40 years. You know, we have a very
20:09
progressive Houston. It's the most
20:11
diverse city in America. There's over
20:14
100 languages spoken in this city, and a
20:17
lot of people here have learned to live
20:19
together even if they see things
20:21
differently.
20:22
Um you know, we we we work through
20:24
things, we push through things, and when
20:26
things like like Harvey happened, we
20:28
come together as a city regardless of
20:30
race, gender, sexual identity. We all
20:32
stand up and help each other as
20:34
Houstonians. You know? And so, we need
20:36
people in leadership roles in this city
20:40
that are trying to promote inclusivity
20:42
instead of division. Right? And so, I
20:45
mean, saying all that, I mean, I have to
20:47
at least consider, you know, putting
20:49
myself up and and getting in the fight.
20:52
You know, I've been on the sidelines for
20:53
a while, you know, helping to push and
20:55
promote and amplify the voices of people
20:57
who want those positions. But now I got
21:00
to I got to see if I got to get off the
21:01
sidelines and get in the game, like
21:03
y'all say.
21:03
Get in the game, baby. game.
21:05
Man, you got a national
21:06
I say something? Can I say something
21:08
about Tash?
21:09
Yes.
21:10
Um I would I would absolutely like to
21:12
put him on the record. Like I'm
21:13
currently recording two different
21:14
projects. I want to literally put him in
21:16
the game.
21:17
Thank you.
21:18
Uh Tash, so I followed you, Tash. Follow
21:20
me back.
21:21
And uh send me a message so we can get
21:23
in contact. Actually have I actually
21:25
have the perfect record I just recorded
21:27
with a a friend of mine. And we were
21:29
like, "Yo, this is a very grown and sexy
21:31
record. We're going to need like a male
21:33
singer that can that has the capacity to
21:35
handle this, you know?" And I absolutely
21:37
think he's the guy for it. I love the
21:40
opportunity
21:41
to put him literally in the game.
21:42
NOW YOU TOLD CITIZENS
21:45
I'M SURE HE IS. We got his information
21:48
and we'll make the connection happen.
21:50
Tash Neil, he was our Getting THE GAME
21:52
ARTIST.
21:53
NOW TASH Neil's going to collaborate
21:56
with the iconic Bun B.
21:58
Yo, remember we had citizens calling up
22:01
that weren't even saying getting the
22:03
game. They were saying staying the game.
22:05
They took it up another notch.
22:07
They took it A WHOLE NOTCH
22:09
SO MAKE SURE YOU SEND YOUR MUSIC IN,
22:10
CITIZENS, to
22:12

22:16
