Two decades after releasing his debut solo album, Trill, Bun B still moves with truth and purpose at the forefront of everything he does. It’s that focus that has carried him through every chapter of his career, especially during the making of this album.
After solidifying his legacy with the creation of the classic “Cupid Shuffle” back in the early aughts, Bryson “Cupid” Bernard is back with another track prime for all the summer BBQs and family reunions to come this upcoming Summer season and beyond: “The Cookout.”
Spotify’s Most Necessary Live concert series debuted in the heart of Houston, lighting up Warehouse Live with a vibrant blend of music and energy. The event transformed into a real-life extension of the popular Most Necessary playlist, with an unforgettable evening of live performances from the hottest up-and-coming rap artists across the US.

The surprises kept coming as Maxo Kream and Sauce Walka, also from the Houston scene, made surprise appearances, adding their star power to the lineup.
Of course, a night out isn’t complete without delicious food. Spotify’s Most Necessary Live is delivered by offering Houston’s renowned Trill Burgers, infusing the event with local culinary flavor.
