NEW YORK, March 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Jive Records legendary hip-hop duo UGK announces the release of their final studio album, UGK: UGK 4 Life on March 31st. The sixth studio-album from the influential southern duo, Bun B and the late Pimp C, is a poignant culmination of their musical legacy.

UGK: UGK 4 Life, embodies the pure essence of UGK and the late Pimp C's signature production incorporating the down and gritty Texas sound they created over two decades ago in Port Arthur, Texas. The video for their lead single, "Da Game Been Good To Me," captures Bun B and Pimp C as they reminisce over their groundbreaking hip-hop career. The video debuts on MTV2 and MTVU as the "Jam Of The Week" today.

According to USA Today, "Pimp C and Bun B helped lay the foundation for southern hip-hop," and ever since their 1988 EP release, The Southern Way, they have influenced a generation of artists including Jay-Z, OutKast, and Lil Wayne. UGK has maintained a constant presence in the rap world with mixtapes, indie releases and cameos on numerous singles. They have released five studio-albums that include their first major label Jive Records release Too Hard To Swallow (1992), Super Tight (1994), the gold-certified Ridin' Dirty (1996), Dirty Money (2001), and the critically-acclaimed UGK (Underground Kingz) (2007). The latter release was groundbreaking for the duo: it was the first time UGK debuted #1 on three separate album charts. Additionally, UGK earned their first Grammy nomination for their collaborative hit, "Int'l Players Anthem (I Choose You)" featuring OutKast.
