After much-anticipation, Verzuz takes it back to the dirty south with rap legends 8Ball & MJG and UGK.
From the early ’90s into the late 2000’s, both 8Ball & MJG and the Underground Kingz dominated the south before becoming international superstars. Pimp C, who was one half of UGK, passed away in 2007.
On Thursday (May 26), 8Ball & MJG and UGK’s Bun B brought their classic hits for a live performance in Atlanta. The Memphis titans repped Tennessee to the fullest from “Comin Out Hard” and “Don’t Make” to “You Don’t Want No Drama” and “Relax & Take Notes”.
Meanwhile, Bun B proved everything is bigger in Texas and made Pimp C proud from “Front, Back & Side To Side” and “Chopping Blades” to “Big Pimpin” and “Int’l Players Anthem”, which Big Boi made his guest appearance .
