Summary: "Who Woulda Known Back In '92, In 2008 I'd Have To Write A Song Sayin I Miss You (Rating: 8 out of 10- -4.0 stars)
Comment: First and foremost, I have to give Bun B mad props for keeping his head up during some of the toughest times in his life with the passing of Pimp C. I'm sure thats real hard thing to swallow loosing someone real close to you. And as you can tell Pimp C is heavily missed on this album.
Okay, now for the album. II Trill damn near pics up where the first Trill one left off. Bun B has always been great putting out some club bangers to keep his fans attention. "I'm A Gangsta" with Sean Kingston and "Swang On 'Em" with Lupe Fiasco. Another thing I've always admired about Bun B is that he always kept his rhymes tight while repping the south. "You're Everything" is a standout with Rick Ross, David Banner, and Eightball & MJG. "Underground Thang" is the only track where Pimp C appears on. That track also features Chamillionare as well. For some reason, the track "Good II Me" featuring Mya had me hit the repeat button a few times.
Then there are those introspective tracks that Bun has. "Get Cha Issue", Bun speaks to those who claim to be imporant in this world and not doing anything. "If It Was Up To Me" with Junior Reed is another track where Bun reflects on the life everyone is living. I'm sure we can all agree on "Angel In The Sky" as a good one, as Bun has a track dedicated to the late Pimp C. I really have to admit, that track was real deep, and if you haven't heard it, I recommend you check it out. Thats a nice interplotation of Steve Wonder's "Ribbon In The Sky" as well. Then Bun ends the album on a high note on "Keep It 100" as he manages to keep the party going.
Depending on where you purchased this, you get two bonus tracks. You have "City Of Swang" with Paul Wall and Mike Jones (who is below average as usual). Then you have "Some Hoes" with Bullet Proof, Killer Mike, and Chino XL which is a nice track.
Bun B did it up in '08, despite some major setbacks. His second solo is great to bump to in the car whenever you are going out. Despite a few tracks that failed to stand out (such as "Pop It 4 Pimp"), Bun B shows you why he is one of the greatest here in the south, and can't no one take that away. If you don't have this album, I recommend you make this you next purchase. Peace.

Summary: Sounds like a classis to me
Comment: From what I have heard on this album, it sounded great. Most of the songs are hitting with the bass, and it sounded great in the car. This is just a good street album, unlike Lil Wayne's latest one.

Summary: Step Back for Bun-B
Comment: Everyone else has been giving this cd like 4 and 5 stars and saying that its on point with everything else that he has done. I disagree with that. I feel like II Trill isnt even close to being on the same level of a cd as Trill was. Trill was on fire, II trill is a little more commercial and poppy than Trill. Overall he had a few good tracks but I listened to it about 3 times and was pretty much done with it. Yea Pimp C is missing from this album, but that cant be an excuse cause Pimp C was only on one track in Trill. It just aint that great and I would expect more from Bun.

Summary: Bun B 2 Trill
Comment: I really enjoyed this album!, a good whole record the production was nice on most of the tracks and the lyrical content was great. Also 2 Trill has numerous guest appearances including Lil Wayne on Damn I'm cold which is a classic song in my books, also Everything which features Rick Ross, David Banner, Eightball & MJG with a sensational sample from Jodeci as the hook. Another song is Angel in the sky which gives a dedication to pimp c and has another sample from Stevie Wonder ribbon in the sky. I must admit the cover doesnt do this album justice but the saying is true never judge a book by its cover!. A Walk Through Life
