The United States of Burgers competition, hosted by Good Morning America, was won by Bun B’s burger company, Trill Burgers.
On Friday, July 29, Trill Burgers took home the victory in Times Square, New York, where they faced off against the other finalists, Lucky’s Last Chance in Philadelphia, The Companion in Atlanta, and Babe’s Meat & Counter in Miami.
Trill Burgers received votes from the panel of judges, which included chef and TV personality Gina Neely, football running back Tiki Barber, NBA player Jalen Rose, WWE wrestler Titus O’Neil, and ABC anchor Sam Champion.
Regarding his triumph, Bun said:
It’s absurd in a way that defies comprehension. It’s beyond anything we could have dreamed for this brand to be in Times Square after winning the best burger in America live on Good Morning America. We merely wanted to work hard and receive credit for what we accomplished, and today we received the highest form of recognition. I am really excited to introduce this burger to America.
The first Trill Burgers pop-up restaurant opened in August 2021, and the festival Rock the Bells will be the location of its upcoming pop-up.
Investigating Bun B’s net worth
Rapper Bun B made the majority of his wealth from that industryd each of his five albums that he has so far published.
The 49-year-old has a net worth of almost $4 million, claims CelebrityNetWorth. The majority of his wealth comes from his job as a rapper, while specific information about his possessions is not readily available.
He also goes by the name Bernard James Freeman, and in the 1980s, he and Pimp C created the rap group UGK. The latter was discovered by record company Bigytime Records after releasing a demo cassette without Freeman. Since the songs on their debut album Too Hard to Swallow were explicit, they originally published an extended play titled Banned.
Three additional albums were issued by the group before Pimp C was arrested. Bun B started making cameos in the albums of other rappers and put out a mixtape titled Legends. In October 2005, he released his debut album, Trill, which peaked at number six on the Billboard 200 chart.
After Pimp C passed away in 2007, Freeman began concentrating on his solo career. Trill OG, his third album, was published in August 2010 after the release of II Trill in 2008. Fans of the rapper gave the hits on the albums a lot of praise.
Trill OG: The Epilogue, Bun B’s fourth album, was released in November 2013 and included the leftover songs from Freeman’s third album. In January 2014, he made the announcement for his tour, dubbed “The Trillest Tour,” which was also that year.
