Can’t be Bun B forever. He’s trying to get to another level. I get it.

Bun a 50 plus year old man with kids and grandkids... :russ: . What he supposed to be talking like he just got done sipping syrup and moving weight.

the brotha established he ain't out here trying to hold on and make music for young folks. Dude has branched out and makes money in all types of avenues. So its no longer necessary for him to sell a rap image anymore and to tell you the truth no one knows if this is actually how he sounds and his rap "accent" wasn't exaggerated to sound more real on the mic and sell an image to rap fans.

The coli is funny af. What do yall want from that man ?? I didn't click the video but I'm guessing he's talking properly and yall mad he doesn't sound like a hick from the hills have eyes.

Bun talk like he say "gee willikers" and "by golly" unironically.

He sound like he's doing the 90's black comedian stereotypical white guy voice.

It's funny to hear thecoli defend it, as if speaking with that specific dialect is the only way a black man can succeed in business.

Also folks need to stop acting like only black folks code switch. Damn near everyone code switches. You ain't never here some southern red necks code switch or some asians or some mexicans / puerto ricans and etc?

I done seen them jokers code switch quicker than black folks.

This x100...he got stuck in Trill this Trill that dude used to could go. Now he done got civilized. Not too mad.

To me its just when rappers make it and get older their lyrics normally don't flow as well. I just think its human nature and they are successful and don't put as much time into raping because they have made it and have other interest or other ways to make money or just become bored with raping.

I think that is what made Sean Price so amazing in which as he got older and into his 40s his lyrics got even better (though his breath control got worse and you could tell towards the end he wasn't healthy). Though many could attest his lyrics being so raw even in to his 40s and towards the end of his life was due to him still being hungry because he never had the success and financial windfall many of his peers received.

Nah man, this is that Kanye on Ellen voice. Y'all gotta stop acting like there's no middle ground between speaking proper and being an ignorant hood nikka. I've heard Bun casually speak plenty of times and he sounds just fine. But he doesn't usually sound like THIS. Somebody should hit him with the Deion Sanders:

Bun B is a business man in a business setting...he can read the room and talk in a business vernacular....I see no problem with that interview :ehh:

I always said from afar watching Bun B since the 90s. That when he interviewed he always seemed like either the smartest persons in the room or one of the smartest.

I believe his business ventures and how now through social media and the internet we can get even more glimpses into these rappers personal life just shows to the world how extremely intelligent he is (which I always felt).

You know that was a joke between Rob (Jackson sports caster) and Deion..right? They had a thing where they would troll each other during interviews. The outside public didn't know this was their little inside joke (which also trolled the foolish folks online and helped their videos always trend). The most famous troll interview was when Rob asked Deion (when rumors were he was interviewing with the buffs) can he go with him and can Deion drop him off at the Broncos Vs Chiefs game in Denver.
