The final UGK album, named For Life in honor of Pimp C, is going to drop on March 31, Bun B recently announced.
In a recent interview with MTV, Bun revealed his intentions behind the album, which is to be released via Jive Records.
"This will be a good bookend to the legacy of myself and Pimp," Bun said. "And definitely take not just the group, but Pimp C, to true legend and iconic status. This album is not about who I wanna work with and what kind of beats I wanna do -- this album is about what the people wanna hear, and that's Bun and Pimp. And I wanna try to give that to them in the most purest sense."
The group's previous release, Underground Kingz, was a two disc set featuring Three 6 Mafia, Lil Jon, Scarface, Too $hort, T.I., Rick Ross, Slim Thug, Andre 3000, and many more.
Pimp C met his untimely demise back in December of 2007 from what has since been determined as "medical complications."
"A year has passed since the Pimp died and he is still missed everyday," Slim Thug told SOHH back in December of 2008. "I hear him sampled on hooks and hear all the good music he made while alive and I know we will never forget what he did for Texas," he said. "It's UGK4life b*tttccch!"
