When Banner Met Bun - Talk So Real Throwback Files #1

Pushermania Network Podcasts

Welcome to the first in a series of Talk So Real throwback files - When Banner Met Bun! This is from my old radio show on KPFT in Houston, Damage Control. The night was September 12, 2002, I had just returned from New York City where we threw the release party for Devin the Dude's Just Tryin' to Live album. David Banner was in town producing tracks for Lil Flip, and at the time DJ Chill was Lil Flip's DJ on the road. I did some photo's for Banner and we were in touch a lot back then. He had of course met and worked with Pimp C before, but had never met Bun B. He told me he was in town and Chill agreed to bring him to the station, so I called Bun and told him he should come down and meet David Banner. He of course did and we had one of the most epic interviews in our history that night. It was extra cool because I had my brother DJ Chill on the wheels and my other brother Zin - may he rest in POWER - by my side co-hosting with me. I miss Zin every day, so hearing this is very special. Bun and Banner break down A LOT about the music industry at the time. This was before the south took over hip hop, in fact this was back when the south was truly still fighting for respect at all in this game. There is so much real talk on this, and you have to listen to the end to hear the epic freestyle! I have a lot of shows like this in the can, some as files some still just on cassette. I'ma bring some back to life if y'all promise to like and share and comment and tell your friends to check these out. I need every single one of y'all to help me take this to another level. Love to all, please enjoy! Also I took the photo that accompanies this show but this photo is not from that night. I can't find the ones I took of them in the studio that night! This photo is from the Hip Hop Summit thrown by Russell Simmons and them when it was in Houston during a Super Bowl weekend.
