Bun B recently sat down with Idea Generation and talked about the difference between his hometown of Houston and other places when it comes to honoring their older rap artists.
[Instagram post not found]"Name me a city that celebrates their old school artists like Houston. Nobody. No one,” said Bun, who's been having a lot of success with his much-talked-about Trill Burgers. "You go to LA, they don’t celebrate — maybe Snoop [Dogg] and [Ice] Cube —but [DJ] Battle Cat and those dudes, they don’t get the respect they’re supposed to get."
"Big Daddy Kane and them, they’re getting all their love now because it’s the 50th anniversary [of Hip-Hop], but they don’t be showing up for them and Rakim like that all the time," he added.
Is Bun's statement true? If not, what city do you believe holds down old school artists the best?
