Trill is the debut studio album by UGK member Bun B, released on September 13, 2005 by Rap-a-Lot Records, and Asylum Records. It is said that Bun released the album to keep the UGK name alive while Pimp C was in jail. It debuted at number six on the US Billboard 200 chart, with 118,000 copies sold in the first-week sales.[8]

As of late the album has had four singles: "Draped Up" featuring Lil' Keke, the remix version features Slim Thug, Lil' Keke, Chamillionaire, Mike Jones, Paul Wall, Aztek, Z-Ro and Lil' Flip. The most recent singles are "Git It" featuring Ying Yang Twins, and a remix of "Get Throwed" which features, Pimp C, Young Jeezy and Z-Ro, the original version had Jay-Z doing verse four, but in the video Bun B, and Pimp C split the last verse. People speculate that either the budget wasn't big enough to get Jay-Z for the video, or Jay was not featured to show the reemergence of UGK. There is a Chopped & Screwed album version done by Michael 5000 Watts.
