Bun BSouthern rapper, Bun B recently announced that he is leaving Asylum Records to setup shop at Universal.

 

When asked why he was leaving Asylum, during his interview withXXLBun said that the record label had helped him greatly in the past, but due to some recent changes it was no longer the place for him.

 

"Asylum helped me immensely over the last four or five years in my career as far as taking, me, myself, and UGK to another level," said the underground legend.

 

"It's just that the system in house changed. Todd [Moskowitz] got moved up to a higher position and it doesn't give me as much of an opportunity to be hand on hand on a lot of stuff."

 

The rap veteran will now go through Fontana, a subsidiary of Universal Music Group.

 

As for the upcoming switch he anticipates that it will allow Rap-A-Lot to tap into wider markets as far as distribution and promotion are concerned.

 

"This new situation works better for me," Bun B said. "I work better in the small system. When you're in the big system it's really about breaking you and exposing you and I think I've been able to build a career as far as just associating myself. We're pretty good with that in-house with Rap-A-Lot. But with Universal we are gonna use their distribution legs and promotional chain, because they do have the access that we haven't been able to have before."

Here are some covers that I think are dope. What do you think the best mixtape covers are?
