Bun B Wants Props for Use of “Trill”

Drake may be occupied with complaining to retail chains for using the phrase “YOLO.” Now, Bun B is the next rapper up who has decided to speak out about rappers using trill.

In a series of tweets, Bun explains some rappers have used the term for monetary gain without paying tribute to the late Pimp C. There are a few out of Texas who use the slang, and it has expanded to names like A$AP Rocky and Rick Ross. Although he doesn't address anyone in particular, the Port Arthur native just wants rappers to give credit when it’s due.

Read his tweets below.

I guess everybody putting Trill on everything like nobody has a trademark on it. When you get that letter in the mail don't act surprised.

Using trill and showing love to UGK and Port Arthur, the land of the trill, is one thing. But some of these cats think they made it up. No.

I know some cats show love and respect. But using the term for money and not breaking bread with Pimp family ain't keeping it trill at all.

Like @kaymoneyyyy said "Being trill is not just some trendy shit. It's hard bring trill. It ain't no party in these PA streets." I agree.

And no I'm not talking bout Rocky. Niggas have been trying to co-op our terms and slang from down here before homie even started rapping.
