What happen to Bun B’s Texas drawl?

[O.Red]

Bun always spoke like this

 

[Cryptocurrency Scarface]

yeah okay. ive met this man in real life twice this was not his energy. why he wasn't "friendly" with me?

You were chamillionaire and he gave you the treatment

 

[O.T.I.S.]

You’re late af. “Friendly-ass Bun B” has been a thing for over a decade

Facts

Crazy how people change as they age

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

Bun B crossed over awhile ago breh…

 

[Majestyx]

For comparison sake, here is a recent interview of Bun speaking in his natural speaking voice. He doesn't sound ignorant or uneducated at all. Just a normal older black man voice. This is NOT the voice from the video in the OP lol.

this shyt is weird. cuz he "professor bun b" for his 2 interviews with Kweli. everyonce in a while a lil drawl slips out but its mainly Professor. in this recent interview, he got the drawl and he speaking like a regular breh.

Bun B needs to do some VA... PBS Kids needs to call him.


Him and Pimp C could have had their own animated sitcom based on their adventures in Texas. I would have watched that.

If the Roots can have their own show, then Bun should.

Bun got older and became a family man... plus he's sober now.


Imagine if cats heard the stuff he said on songs such as Pregnant Puzzy, Bun was wilding. Pimp's verse was just as dark.


Over the years, he became a ambassador for the South so he decided to code switch for more opportunities. I do wish that UGK had a TV Show like the Wu Tang on Hulu.

Nah he was humble each time he just wasn’t using that voice

ARE Y'ALL READY TO WALK BACK THE COMMENTS ABOUT HIM?

Appearance of his ,just posted a few days ago.
He speaks to his rap colleague and friend in the exact same manner, tone, and voice .






Like my earlier post said. From the earliest radio interview I've heard from him YEARS ago, until now, he sounds pretty much the same.

the code switching is evident between this clip and the one I posted

It’s crazy how Bun B the responsible family, and business man and professor gets hated on, but the volatile and irresponsible Pimp C gets venerated like a saint.

 

[Ghost Utmost]

Be nostalgic for other men's "drawl"s Brehs.

And from dudes who wouldn't dare even raise their voices at work.
