Renowned hip-hop publication The Source has rated Bun B's new album, Trill OG, its iconic "5 mics," a rating last issued by the magazine in 2005.
Becoming the first album since 2005's Naked Truth by Lil Kim, Bun's new LP is reviewed in Source's upcoming September issue.
Each album went through meticulous review from The Source's 'Mind Squad' across different categories that included originality, lyrical content, arrangement and production. Trill O.G. scored high enough to receive 5 mics, the holy grail of Hip-Hop ratings, granting it admission into an elite club of timeless musical compositions that span over 20 years. The album rating system has been a staple for the magazine in announcing which artists have put together the best album from start to finish. Bun B is the first artist to receive this honor in over 5 years. The state of Hip-Hop music returns strong with these releases and The Source celebrates the return of Hip-Hop dominance. These artists have pushed the envelope, crafted chart topping music and are helping restore Hip-Hop's dominance, with Bun B the leading the pack. Trill O.G.'s [5 mics] rating is something only a select few have received in the 22-year history of The Source.
