Bun B

Born on March 19, 1973, in Port Arthur, Texas, Bun B rose to prominence as one half of the influential rap duo UGK (Underground Kingz) alongside the late Pimp C.

His presence on tracks like "Bag" also showcases his role as a mentor and collaborator with newer generations of rappers, ensuring that his impact on the hip-hop industry continues to evolve. Bun B's ability to merge the lyrical tradition of hip-hop with the evolving sounds of the South has solidified his status as an underground legend and a respected veteran in the rap game.
