And hey,
Cole CuchnaHOST
Of course, this is UGK's International Players Anthem, a classic record that unites two hip-hop duos for a four-verse masterclass in contrasting perspectives and styles.
Cole CuchnaHOST
The track's production revolves around a sample of Willie Hutch's 1973 track, I Choose You, a song about Hutch falling for a woman and choosing her to be his wife.
Cole CuchnaHOST
Thematically, UGK and OutKast riff on the idea of choosing, with each of the four international players offering a different perspective.
Cole CuchnaHOST
Pimp C brags about women choosing him, Bun B tries to convince a woman to choose him, and Big Boy warns about choosing carefully, because some women might only be after your money.
Cole CuchnaHOST
But being the romantic that he is, Andre's take is the most sentimental of the bunch and arguably the truest to the sample's original theme.
Ray DanielsHOST
Bruh, I listened to his whole album.

Bomani JonesHOST
All right, so, I mean, Trill, that's largely a UGK-ism, right? Like, that's where this comes from.
Bomani JonesHOST
Shout out to Bun B, the Trill OG.
Bomani JonesHOST
I was very tempted to call him and get him on speaker to have him explain exactly what it is.
Aaron McCannHOST
Far too long speech.

JusBamGUEST
I'm saying? A lot of top Southern.
speaker_0NARRATOR
Jay was also wise enough to recognize the sleeping giant that was Southern Rap.
speaker_0NARRATOR
He was a huge fan of Cash Money Records, Scarface, and UGK, and did his part to help normalize them with the often provincial East Coast audience.
speaker_0NARRATOR
At times, he maybe went too far in that direction.
speaker_0NARRATOR
The less said about his verse on the Ha remix, the better.
