Thats the truth of the story. You might see in a few places that Bun B’s followup album or second album ‘II Trill’ debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200 this week but what they didnt tell you is it sold less copies than ‘Trill’ in it’s opening week. ‘Trill’ debuted at #6 just a few years ago with 118,000 in sales for it’s opening week. This week ‘II Trill’ debuting at #2 managed only 98,000 in sales. So while the headlines might say Bun scores a #2 spot they dont tell you his sales went down in the first week even though he’s better known and had a pop type single playing.
I know many of you have bought and supported this release, but can you tell me it’s better than ‘Trill’ was? Or are you just now getting on the bandwagon since the death of Pimp C? For me after listening to both releases there is really no comparison, ‘Trill’ is a far better piece than this latest release. I don’t need pop stars and multiple features to sell me, I need Bun doing what he did back when he was an Underground King. So there’s always a little more than a headline to every story, pay attention to this one.
