Bun B Threatens Legal Action Over Bootleg T-Shirt

Bun BIf you're a bootlegger, make sure you're not trying to sell anything related to Bun B, especially without his permission, because he's not down with it.

Complex writer Joe La Puma tweeted the link to a t-shirt at Bun B on Thursday (February 17), which was being sold on hip-hop store MixUnit.com and baring his likeness -- asking "Thoughts?"

In response, Bun threatened legal action.

"Unless there's a contract with me/estate, you're looking at a lawsuit," Bun wrote (@BunBTrillOG), upon viewing the link.

The t-shirt in question depicts a likeness of Bun and his deceased UGK partner Pimp C, with the words "Trillionaire Boys Club" -- a play on the rapper's favorite word of choice and Pharrell's Billionaire Boys Club clothing line -- printed on the front.

Although Bun didn't seem to have any knowledge of the tee or its design, MixUnit describes it as "official TBC gear".

At press time, the tee was still up for sale at the website, but it was unclear if Bun B had taken any steps into legal action.
