Mannie Fresh Reveals Bun B Originally Was Going to Be in Big Tymers

While appearing on DJ Self’s YouTube series Apt. 5H, Cash Money Millionaire Mannie Fresh talked about the early days of the Big Tymers — the group he was in with Birdman — and how there was supposed to be a third member from another legendary Southern rap group.

Bun [B] actually was supposed to be in the Big Tymers. A lot of people don’t know that,” Mannie told DJ Self. “But I think for reasons that — it kinda conflicted because you gotta think about how weird the dynamics of the South was.” Adding, “Pimp [C] was doing stuff with No Limit; Bun was doing stuff with us. So I think it would’ve made a ripple in their group if any of them would have joined [No Limit or Cash Money].”

Trending on Billboard

Bun B still maintained a good working relationship with Fresh, as he made guest appearances on three of the group’s five albums and other Cash Money projects like the Hot Boys’ 1997 debut album Get It How U Live!! and the legendary producer’s 2004 debut album The Mind of Mannie Fresh. “I swear, some of the verses that Bun put down on some of the Cash Money sh– is like, ‘Oh my God.’ I used to be like, ‘How you gonna keep up with that sh–?,’” he said. “He just said some incredible sh– and his flows!”

Mannie and Bun still have that same bond. “To this day, our relationship is still like that. Bun is like, ‘Sh–, whatever you doing, I’m on it.’”
