After making a number of rest-in-peace shouts to fallen partner Pimp C, Bun reserves the heartfelt track "Angel in the Sky" for a proper, articulated homage. II TRILL also features memorable collaborations with Lil Wayne on the slick, funk cut "Damn I'm Cold" and Junior Reid on "If It Was Up to Me." Swishahouse icon DJ O.G. Ron C handles the mix here-chopping and screwing each track in true H-Town fashion.
Spin (p.104) - 3.5 stars out of 5 -- "Bun B has a flair for Southern-fried folksiness and lyrics that are as poignantly evocative as they are salaciously entertaining."
The Wire (p.66) - "IL TRILL blends sorrow, contemplation and grim determination to keep on keeping on. The beats are tighter, the rhymes sharper and the subject matter more relevant..."
Q (Magazine) (p.140) - 3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he atmosphere is often weighted with menace....'That's Gangsta' buzzes with defiant menace."
