Bun B Can't Believe 'Int'l Players Anthem' Has Become a Wedding Staple
Coming in at #91 on Rolling Stone’s Greatest Songs of All Time list, this week hosts Rob Sheffield and Brittany Spanos discuss "Int'l Players Anthem" with special guest Bun B. The surviving member of UGK details the fateful way the song came together with OutKast including how their iconic video almost didn't happen. Bun B sings the praises of his UGK partner Pimp C, who died six months after "Int'l Players Anthem" was released as a single. He credits Pimp C's musical intuition with seeing the potential for the song’s sample, which ended up being an accurate prediction. Plus, the rapper notes how impactful the video has been on the song's legacy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
