Gunz n' Butta

Gunz n' Butta is the second studio album by Harlem hip hop duo the U.N., which is composed of Cam'ron and Vado.

That’s really saying something, since this collection of mixtape tracks and new numbers was originally promised as the inaugural release of Killa Cam’s post-Diplomats crew, the U.N., but last man standing Vado is a true asset and this final product still hits hard.

Although Flea and Slime more than prove their worth as two of New York’s top Hip Hop acts, Gunz N Butta’s shortcomings make the project feel more like a run-of-the-mill mixtape than a cohesive retail release.

"[8] Tom Breihan of Pitchfork Media gave the album a 7.6 out of 10, saying "There's nothing even the slightest bit innovative about Gunz n' Butta, but it does give us Cam, Vado, and Araab, three guys with great chemistry, doing what they do.

"[10] Ben Detrick of Spin gave the album a seven out of ten, saying "On Gunz N' Butta, Cam'ron and protégé Vado (a rapper with Gatling-gun nuance) are roiling and abrasive, twisting down a wormhole of multisyllabic rhymes and Araabmuzik's skittering beats.
