Last month, Bun B told HipHopDX about working with Cory Mo [click to read]. “Cory has been a friend and recording partner for well over seven years now,” he said of producer who worked with Z-Ro, The Geto Boys and Devin The Dude previously. “It was just a matter of getting people who knew what this album was supposed to sound like, but also capable of making it sound like that, getting them involved. A lot of these tracks were tracks that Pimp had made, already structured, set up, and Pimp had already laid vocals [to]. It was just about finishing everything up.”
