Dubcnn had the chance to hook back up with the Underground King Bun B. Barely a month after the unfortunate passing of his partner and friend Pimp C, Bun connected with us for an in-depth two-part interview. In the first part, we talk about the death of Chad "Pimp C" Butler, his funeral, how Bun has been holding up, the reactions from the fans, the Grammy nomination, Bun's new single "That's Gangsta" featuring Sean Kingston and produced by J.R. Rotem from his new album "II Trill", details on the album, what fans can expect from it and much more.

Exclusive Interview With Bun B: Part 1 (January '08) (http://www.dubcnn.com/interviews/bunb08-part1)

Lookout for Part 2 of this interview, where we talk more about "II Trill", as well as the possibility of a new UGK album with unreleased material. Bun tells us who he's feeling right now, his predictions for Hip-Hop in 2008, ringtone music, the digital age, the evolution of the word "gangsta", the reality of the hood, and much more.

Incase you haven't heard Bun B's new single "That's Gangsta", get it below:

Interesting interview.... Good Job Nima, like always. Did the bishop come to the funeral with a bunch of prostitutes or did he say something disrespectful? What's the scoop behind this?

Yeah I believe he showed up all dressed up in his extravagant green suit with some hoes and he showed up pretty late.. Atleast that's what it said on the internet.

Great read.  Bun sounds like a real strong dude and I'm glad he's gettin right back in the game.  He's easily one of the top MC's in the game today.  His hit on the UGK album was insane.

What did Bishop Don Juan do at the funeral?

From what I heard he came towards the end with a few prostitues and all dressed up in his flashy suits...

Great read, thanks DubCNN.

I've been listening to that latest UGK a lot for the past few days. I picked it up back in September and it's taken a long time for me to really appreciate it. When I first heard it a lot of it was so dark and so downbeat that I wasn't really feeling it. I kinda felt like "this is some depressing music". But the more I've listened the more beautiful some of the production sounds, and Pimp passing makes some of his lines fucking gut-wrenching to hear now. RIP to that man.

I know exactly what you mean, especially the song "Heaven" is creepy when you listen to it now.
