Bun B Talks A Little Bit About Lupe With The Hip Hop DX

Bun B just recently did this interview with HipHopDX.com.
Here's what he said about working with Lupe:

DX: “Swang On Em” features Lupe Fiasco. How did that song happen?

BB: Lupe’s a good friend of mine. Like-minded person, very talented cat, I feel like one of the most underrated in the game right now. I had a song that I thought would be a good fit for him, and that it would be an interesting combination. I didn’t have any hindrances to whether he could do it or pull it off, I was just curious as to what people would think about the combination. I, for one, thought it was going to be a great combination, and it looks like everybody agrees.

DX: Lupe has talked about how you showed up in the video of “Hip Hop Saved My Life,” and how you had taken him on a tour of Houston when he visited. What made you decide to do that?

BB: I pretty much do [that with] most artists like that when they come to Houston, I try to let them see the city in a right way and give them a proper tour. You hear different things and there’s certain stuff on TV about Houston, and I wanted them to see. I wanted them to go to 5th Ward, I wanted them to go to 3rd Ward, I wanted them to go to South Park in the southwest side of Houston. There are things that I felt you need to see when you come to Houston.

DX: Do you think that that’s something that’s missing between the older generation and the new one?

BB: I think so, to a certain extent. It was the way that I was brought in. I was blessed to have people like J Prince and Scarface [click to read], and the Too Short’s of the world embrace me and give me a couple of pointers. I’m just doing what I kind of feel is my obligation in this music industry. There’s not unity and loyalty in this game right now, and that’s why it’s falling apart. Everybody’s looking for self.
