Bun B For President

August 17, 2010 by deadendrap Leave a Comment

In an interview with VIBE, Bun B explains why “Bun B for President” did not make 5 Mic “TrillOG”.

I never could figure out how to approach the record. It almost sounded crazy for me to say ‘Bun B For President.’ It was an incredible song. I really loved the track, which J. Cole produced as well. I originally talked to him about a beat and he was like, ‘Oh I got music all day. Would you mind if I sent you something with a verse on it.’ I’m like, ‘I wasn’t even gon’ go there but by all means…’ And when he sent it, all we did all day was sit around and listen to that song, like, ‘Do you hear this? What do you do to this? I don’t even know what to do to this.’ So it was just something that we had to put to the side.
That’s one of the few songs that I wasn’t able to just attack. I hated that I couldn’t figure out how to do it. That shows how ahead of the game [Cole] is. Most of the songs I hear, people will tell you I jumped in on it. That one I took my time with and I was like, ‘You know what, we’re gonna wait on this record. We’re gonna sit on it until I know exactly how to present it.
