UGK is widely considered to be one of the greatest hip hop dups to ever come from the Southern hip hop scene. Consisting of Bun B and the late Pimp C, the duo is one of the most accomplished artists to ever come from the Texas hip hop scene. From a mainstream perspective, they are recognized for collaborating with Jay-z in his hit “Big Pimpin’” . However for many fans of UGK, the apex of their success came with the release of their 1996 album Ridin’ Dirty.

Ridin’ Dirty is considered to be the best of all the UGK albums.
