UGK heads already know this, but Mr. 3-2 is the first voice you hear rapping on their classic album Ridin’ Dirty. He has the opening verse on their fan favorite “One Day.” In a twist of eerie irony, 3-2 raps on the song about wanting to be buried next to the Come & Go gas station in his old neighborhood. Twenty years later, he was killed at a gas station.
Mr. 3-2 would continue to collaborate with UGK throughout his career and at one point was considered being the third member. Bun B later stated that the group dynamics simply didn’t allow it to happen.
