I had the honor of meeting PIMP after he was released. Our daughters took dance classes together and all of dad's of the class had to be do a father daughter dance. I met him back stage, and I can actually say I was on stage (during the father/daughter dance) with the legend Pimp C. Every person he talked to back stage, he ended the convo with a firm handshake, direct eye contact and a God bless you. I told him I was a long time fan and bought my first UGK album from Ted's record shop in P. A..... He said damn you really are a long time fan because Ted's closed down in the 90's. I'm 43 now and had been listening to them since 7 grade. He seemed like a genuine dude from that short encounter. Unfortunately he passed shortly after. R. I. P. PIMP
Husband has similar stories. He was a rapper with slim thug in the late nineties. I was still a baby but he was going out to meet with ugk because they knew cousins of my husbands family. Sadly my husband gave up that lifestyle. I still tell go back out but I'm his manager and body guard. I knew then he was perfect for me. Because I was jamming pimp at fourteen years old. Singing it in class. Who knew id marry out my race or age? I was sixteen when we met,married for twelve years,nineteen year age difference. I love the rubbernecking they do to us. No skeezers here sorry. Im homegrown 😂
I'm from up North but I went to college in GA. Every summer I would come home with UGK, Pastor Troy, C - Murder, Drama, Three 6 Mafia. My friends would ask: WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU LISTENING TO? I'd laugh, and tell them they ain't ready for these country rap tunes.
Same here. I would go down south and come back bumpin UGK, Three 6, 8ball MJG, Old OutKast, trick.. same thing.. mfs be like man wtf is this country ass shit… fast forward few years later every1 listening to south shit
It make take years to fully appreciate what PimpC brought to the world let alone UGK. He spoke the truth and didn’t bite his tongue and most of these celebrities can’t say the same………PimpC is more than a legend…he will always be an Icon to the ones that really “felt” where he coming from. 🔥💯#RestInPower
To keep it even Trill a group from Texas actually named themselves Texas Boyz they were independent and had some good music . I met them at a gentleman’s club in South Texas they gave me a cd was knockin . Pimp influence on the culture was strong
@Magnet Shakur what does a Rolls-Royce have to do with anything with a brother keeping his woman on his arm. That’s grown man ish. Jumping woman to woman gets old my guy. Maybe when you get s little seasoning 🧂 on ya, you’ll understand.
Bun is a legend, on one hand his verse on “Murder” is some of the hardest sh*t ever, but he also had the acumen to write hooks. Even though he was sadly forced into the role of carrying on Pimp’s legacy, he is now our graceful historian of the life and times of Chad Butler. And he more than holds his own with the greats. #UGK4LIFE. PA’s finest.✊🏻
No it ain't homie his voice is on the level of most hood brothers who tell a basic story about life. Yall gotta stop making up shit based on celebrity worship
WHEN THAT RECORD DROP I TOLD MY PEOPLES WHO WAS IN LOVE WITH JAY, THAT WAS HIS BEST MOVE PUTTING UGK ON THAT RECORD....STILL ONE OF THE BEST JAY Z SONGS EVER--LONG LIVE THA PIMP
I love these interviews. It literally feels like sitting back and hearing that uncle I never had tell some legendary stories about the good ole days back when things were chill with a moral of the story intertwined somewhere in it.
Jay was maybe the first NY MC to keep a open mind when it comes to southern artists. He did Juvies Ha remix, he was on Master P (I got the hook up) soundtrack, did big pimping, and has numerous scarface tracks. Jigga was early recognizing where the game was headed
I love when people say that! Like what would Pac say or what would Pimp C say.. The others Rappers are alive that came from that same time period so why they ain't saying anything??? Let me guess cause they are doing songs with them.. People kill me with this notion that someone will say this or that if they were alive! Who knows?! Pimp or Pac may have worked with these kids.. Everybody mind changes over time.. Nas worked with Lil Nas X for crying out loud and Nas really didn't need to do that but he did..
@@bigA-cy3he 100%. To me, as far as Southern lyricists it goes Andre 3000, T.I., Slim Thug and Bun B. Curren$y is an honorable mention since he is still somewhat young.
There will NEVER be another like Chad. I love him and his music to the core. I listed to UGK since day one in 1992 when I was 14. Pimp helped me get out the game, taught me the game, and made me the G I am. RIP Chad
It's a number of people you can find speaking on it. Pimp was 100% on some "If 2Pac don't fuck with you, I don't fuck with you either." So even though 2Pac was gone at that point he still had that taste in his mouth for Jay-Z.
Pimp got cool with Jay later on. He never hated Jay Z. As far as Pac, he didn’t like Jay because Biggie dissed Pac on Brooklyn’s Finest. Also on Jay’s Dead Presidents video where they were playing Monopoly with real money, Jay said we gotta get some of that west coast money plus Biggie was in the video and Pac didn’t like that. Pac and Jay never met so the beef wasn’t that deep lol.
He wasn't a fan of Jay becuz he didn't like artist from NY (who were dissing the south) trying to get clout off legendary artists from the south. It could have been any artist from NY (at that time) it just happened to be Jay
I could listen to Pimp C stories for hours. But in the back of my mind I think Pimp C stories are like John Wick stories, I think they're watered down! RIP Pimp C! UGK 4 Life!!
I'm from NY and that song was my first introduction to the TX rappers. How they flow on the beat was crazy. I'm glad Pimp got on, he would have regretted missing out on that hit.
A lot of high level people are. I mean the best people in any field are good storytellers. They usually need to cast vision to people for them to follow and support their movement.
Man I love hearing old stories about Pimp C. I wish the Pimp was still here. I remember the first time I heard UGK “Tell Me Something Good”. My uncle couldn’t find that record for 2 days. I snatched that mug up and burned a copy for myself on my karaoke take deck or whatever that mug was called. I bumped that record forever. Then pocket full of stones dropped. It was over. UGK Fan 4 Life after that. There will never be another.
Bun & Jay got on that joint spitting bars Pimp got on there talking H -Town slang & it was CLASSIC so CLASSIC Jay had to do a 2nd verse for the radio & video 😂😂😂
@@360westent to quote pimp c "our records always go gold!" ugk understood that they were not pop artist but they were cultural icons for the south and midwest...therefore by doing the song they then gave jayz instant validation outside of new york...
The more I learn about Pimp C the more I understand why him and Master P could not coexist. Love them both but P definitely would not of had the same reaction as Jay-Z.
Bun B Is one of my favorite Rappers for like 27 years. There are artists who rap complex bars, there are fast rappers, and 40 different types of rappers. But a lot of thoes lyrics are not what the artists lives are about. I do not doubt 1 lyric from any song in their catalog. He carries himself with so much respect and transparent and open honesty that it is refreshing for the past 27 years and counting that I can not name a bad song from UGK. Same with Ball and G, or Outkast. Mudra sealed the deal. I really like front-to- back. Pocketful of stones I heard on Menace II Society when I was like 11 years old. I'm from Flint Michigan, and I remember there was a group called top authority they came out in 1993 with the album that they got famous off of in the hoods across America. I had the white self-titled UGK, Wu-Tang Clan 36 Chambers and Top Authority something to blaze to. Dr.Dre came with The Chronic and I was listening to local music and everything oh, and my homeboy brought me that Ridin Dirty album. I'm pretty sure it was 1994. You hear the guys talking in prison, and then the song Murda starts and Pimp C set the standard for dope boy rap for my tastes with the Number flip." I got them pounds goin for 4 but you know I just paid 2, a nigga bought 30 so I front him 40 too! Keep on poppin 700 times 62, 24/8 is what I do, so nigga fuck what you do. If I told you cocaine #s you think that I'm lying! Young ass niggas 22 and talking about they retiring. In the game ain't no thang come in foreign with Benz, To weekend homes and apartments where I entertain friends. More bounce to the ouce cuz the Burm's the shit! I done got me 50 oz. Out of a bird in this bitch."
@@c-ro9710 Bro Its Crazy that our Cities say thank you are at opposite ends of the country and are so similar. That's one City that's on my list of places to go and check-out. That and actual New York City. I've lived in Los Angeles and quite a few major cities around the country. The only other City I felt at home instantly in was Oakland. I have a feeling that a lot of Texas will be the same way for me when I make my way through. I am a Hip Hop head so most of my vacation destinations are places in songs. S/o from Flint to PA and anyone rocking with the Real ones. They stopped making the fabric of the cloth people were cut from that era, in the early 2000's. Not knocking anything or anyone else before or after. I feel if you grew up with Ridin Dirty, ATLiens, Geto Boys 96 Resurrection, Sitting on top of the world, Something to Blaze to, or Dayton Family, then you more than likely carry yourself a little more reserved, mostly respectful, Stern and purposeful, hustle and grind to feed the fam no matter what hook or crook , and most people don't tend to cross your Line in the sand once it's drawn. I don't say that not being hard or tough. Just a realization.
@@stevensavage6919 All FACTS my brother. Real recognize Real. I agree with everything you said. If you come visit Texas ..don’t waste your time coming to PA..it’s just a shell of what it used to be🤦🏾♂️. Houston is one hour away from Port Arthur and I would recommend you visit there. Same vibe but a big city with lots of things to do and places to go. Stay up bro
@@c-ro9710 I have to see Horn park, and Roll Botany. It may not be what it once was, my city is voted the worst in the country on the regs. It's the feeling of Pulling up in the Calliope Projects in New Orleans , or Crenshaw Blvd headed to the concrete jungles in Los Angeles where they filmed Training Day. It's like being able to put a physical image of the stories we hold close to us in music. The imagery of the words is one thing, but to geographically be looking through the point of view of the artist somehow makes me feel like I have a more complete understanding. There have been things that I've gotten wrong, and when I went to the place figured out the proper pronunciation or things of that nature. And it's all culture. If people were to ask me what my nationality was I would probably say hip-hop, and mean it to death. I am a white Irish guy who grew up in the 80s in the hood. The way I looked at it as there was the religious people, the addicts and alcoholics, and then the people that was just trying to live, and we was all mixed together trying to get along and make ends meet with what we had. If that ain't hip-hop I don't know what it is.
@@stevensavage6919 Yeah. I heard about Flint. Port Arthur isn’t working exactly Mr Rogers neighborhood either. Google worst cities in Texas and you will see Port Arthur on the list sadly😢.. but if you do make it to Houston.. check out the DJ Screw house!
Jay knew that Bun and Pimp was gon make AND take that song to where it is NOW. I like the east coast and third coast feel that was put together on the track. Producer got paid for THAT one 😎
Pimp C verse on Big Pimpin’ BG Knocc Out Real Compton City G’s Lil Wayne Drop it Like it’s Hot Bridge on Bling Bling 2Pac Same Song verse for Digitial Underground Notorious BiG “Look Up in the Sky it’s a bird it’s a plane” Real Love Remix verse for Mary J Blige -Best short verse work in history
I wonder why Bun didn’t mention Tupac being part of the reason why Pimp didn’t want to do Big Pimpin….. Pimp wasn’t really feeling anybody that Pac didn’t like….lol
Exactly! Pimp wasn’t feeling Lay Z lame ass! Or that wack ass beat Timbo gave! Only fan boys fuck with song like that! It definitely wasn’t what they make it out to be UGK saved it! Bun was selling out while Pimp was like Na’ll!
I’ve lived in Atlanta for 23 years and I’ve never heard someone say “From the New York” until B-High just said it. And I’m from Brooklyn and I’ve never heard “the New York” ever. Lol.
@@bluetheory2 exactly. It’s self explanatory. But I’ve never in my life heard someone say “from the New York” It sounds like a hotel. Lol. “Yo, I’m staying at The New York”.
I really love that y'all just let Bun talk. I've seen too many interviews ruined by an interviewer getting in the way of the star. Excellent professionalism by knowing how & when to add to the interview and keep it moving. Kudos gentlemen.

@@dollarsignE912 It just shows how fake tough and fake cocky he thought he was. That man was real cocky for a dude who was barely known in the mainstream before Big Pimpin came out
@@terranceblack2904 But that's the difference between Texas and other places, people down here don't really care what other people think or say. Mainstream rap has always been water down music why do you think the group is called UGK (Underground Kingz). Pimp C was a living legend down south before he even got on that song. That's one of the main reasons he didn't want to get on it, one of the reasons was that 2pac didn't fuck with Jay-Z and the other was he didn't want people saying that they only know about UGK because of Jay-Z, and that's exactly what you just said. Now that Mater P thing that's another story but even then all the tracks Pimp C was on No Limit were all jammin straight southern classics.
I had the honor of meeting PIMP after he was released. Our daughters took dance classes together and all of dad's of the class had to be do a father daughter dance.

Same with Ball and G, or Outkast. Mudra sealed the deal. I really like front-to- back. Pocketful of stones I heard on Menace II Society when I was like 11 years old. I'm from Flint Michigan, and I remember there was a group called top authority they came out in 1993 with the album that they got famous off of in the hoods across America. I had the white self-titled UGK, Wu-Tang Clan 36 Chambers and Top Authority something to blaze to. Dr.Dre came with The Chronic and I was listening to local music and everything oh, and my homeboy brought me that Ridin Dirty album. I'm pretty sure it was 1994. You hear the guys talking in prison, and then the song Murda starts and Pimp C set the standard for dope boy rap for my tastes with the Number flip." I got them pounds goin for 4 but you know I just paid 2, a nigga bought 30 so I front him 40 too! Keep on poppin 700 times 62, 24/8 is what I do, so nigga fuck what you do. If I told you cocaine #s you think that I'm lying! Young ass niggas 22 and talking about they retiring. In the game ain't no thang come in foreign with Benz, To weekend homes and apartments where I entertain friends. More bounce to the ouce cuz the Burm's the shit! I done got me 50 oz. Out of a bird in this bitch."
Respect! I remember Top Authority. We was bumping them down here in Port Arthur Texas. PA to Flint #standup
@@c-ro9710 Bro Its Crazy that our Cities say thank you are at opposite ends of the country and are so similar. That's one City that's on my list of places to go and check-out. That and actual New York City. I've lived in Los Angeles and quite a few major cities around the country. The only other City I felt at home instantly in was Oakland. I have a feeling that a lot of Texas will be the same way for me when I make my way through. I am a Hip Hop head so most of my vacation destinations are places in songs. S/o from Flint to PA and anyone rocking with the Real ones. They stopped making the fabric of the cloth people were cut from that era, in the early 2000's. Not knocking anything or anyone else before or after. I feel if you grew up with Ridin Dirty, ATLiens, Geto Boys 96 Resurrection, Sitting on top of the world, Something to Blaze to, or Dayton Family, then you more than likely carry yourself a little more reserved, mostly respectful, Stern and purposeful, hustle and grind to feed the fam no matter what hook or crook , and most people don't tend to cross your Line in the sand once it's drawn. I don't say that not being hard or tough. Just a realization.
@@stevensavage6919 All FACTS my brother. Real recognize Real. I agree with everything you said. If you come visit Texas ..don’t waste your time coming to PA..it’s just a shell of what it used to be🤦🏾♂️. Houston is one hour away from Port Arthur and I would recommend you visit there. Same vibe but a big city with lots of things to do and places to go. Stay up bro
@@c-ro9710 I have to see Horn park, and Roll Botany. It may not be what it once was, my city is voted the worst in the country on the regs. It's the feeling of Pulling up in the Calliope Projects in New Orleans , or Crenshaw Blvd headed to the concrete jungles in Los Angeles where they filmed Training Day. It's like being able to put a physical image of the stories we hold close to us in music. The imagery of the words is one thing, but to geographically be looking through the point of view of the artist somehow makes me feel like I have a more complete understanding. There have been things that I've gotten wrong, and when I went to the place figured out the proper pronunciation or things of that nature. And it's all culture. If people were to ask me what my nationality was I would probably say hip-hop, and mean it to death. I am a white Irish guy who grew up in the 80s in the hood. The way I looked at it as there was the religious people, the addicts and alcoholics, and then the people that was just trying to live, and we was all mixed together trying to get along and make ends meet with what we had. If that ain't hip-hop I don't know what it is.
@@stevensavage6919 Yeah. I heard about Flint. Port Arthur isn’t working exactly Mr Rogers neighborhood either. Google worst cities in Texas and you will see Port Arthur on the list sadly😢.. but if you do make it to Houston.. check out the DJ Screw house!
Bun B should have mentioned he wasn't going to do that track out of respect and love he had for 2Pac!
Bruh these interviews are GOLDEN. TOP TIER PODCAST CLIPS.
Too Short gives a more in depth story on how he played a large part on helping Pimp C even deciding to show up to the video shoot.
This is one of the best interviews I ever heard
I could listen to Bun talk alllllll day!!! Good shit! 😍😍😍
Pimp C part is my favorite part of this song - brings back some good high school memories
Jay knew that Bun and Pimp was gon make AND take that song to where it is NOW. I like the east coast and third coast feel that was put together on the track. Producer got paid for THAT one 😎
Big pimpin one of the best music videos of all time
Dope story bun Pimp c a legend Tv ain’t got no temperature
I swear the best rappers are also amazing storytellers. It's definitely not a coincidence.
Maaaan I can listen to Bun all day long! Knowledge... game... and more! 💯
Pimp C verse on Big Pimpin’
BG Knocc Out Real Compton City G’s
Lil Wayne Drop it Like it’s Hot Bridge on Bling Bling

You showing yo age! 🤣🤣🤣 But you ain't lying. I forgot all about Biggie's verse. I haven't heard that in DECADES 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.
Agreed !!! however we can not forget crunchy black on “ridin spinners”

I wonder why Bun didn’t mention Tupac being part of the reason why Pimp didn’t want to do Big Pimpin…..
Pimp wasn’t really feeling anybody that Pac didn’t like….lol
@@mrprosperity4897 😭
@@mrprosperity4897 too short spoke about it in an interview
@@mrprosperity4897 What BS? He's speaking facts. Bun said the same thing. th-cam.com/video/_YxEiWlEp3g/w-d-xo.html
Exactly! Pimp wasn’t feeling Lay Z lame ass! Or that wack ass beat Timbo gave! Only fan boys fuck with song like that! It definitely wasn’t what they make it out to be UGK saved it! Bun was selling out while Pimp was like Na’ll!
@@bambamone3901 Shut up and stop hating. You Jay-Z haters is weirdos
I’ve lived in Atlanta for 23 years and I’ve never heard someone say “From the New York” until B-High just said it. And I’m from Brooklyn and I’ve never heard “the New York” ever. Lol.
Never. I always say I'm from Brooklyn
@@bluetheory2 exactly. It’s self explanatory. But I’ve never in my life heard someone say “from the New York”
It sounds like a hotel. Lol. “Yo, I’m staying at The New York”.
B High get the best interviews.
He has the best energy too
THAT IS AN INCREDIBLE FUCKIN STORY. TOP MARKS BUN B👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Them 8 bars made me wanna rap changed my life
I really love that y'all just let Bun talk. I've seen too many interviews ruined by an interviewer getting in the way of the star. Excellent professionalism by knowing how & when to add to the interview and keep it moving. Kudos gentlemen.
LONG LIVE CHAD BUTLER!!!!
Respect to Bun B. And Pimp C., that single was amazing.
This story does never get old
"My money look better on my wife." Real rap.
Pimp C made that song... Those 8 bars are LEGENDARY
Shit ain't the same when one's not in the game.
Real Spill
I never pushed the like button on a interview until now! #RipPimpC #RealStandUpGuy
Pimp C 8 bars harder than 8 ball 😱
I wish I could have Bun B on a track, his feature verses are iconic #DripDRip💧💧
Love me some Bun, his talent and how he takes care of his wife.
The fact that Pimp had Gloria Velez is legendary to me watching this.
Every rapper back then had her lol

Man I miss UGK! he had me rollin' talking about Pimp and the mink..🤣 Bun B one of my down South lyrical heroes, RIP Mr Chad Butler aka Pimp C👑🐐🙏
Cant nobody ever forget about big pimpin
And that’s why Pimp C the man. Not even y’all boy Jay Z moved him💯
Nah man this is the reason Master P put hands on that dude. He never knew when to keep his mouth quiet.
@@terranceblack2904 😂
@@terranceblack2904 wtf that gotta do with this. And the man spoke his mind like he was supposed to. You don’t control what no man do but you
@@dollarsignE912 It just shows how fake tough and fake cocky he thought he was. That man was real cocky for a dude who was barely known in the mainstream before Big Pimpin came out
@@terranceblack2904 But that's the difference between Texas and other places, people down here don't really care what other people think or say. Mainstream rap has always been water down music why do you think the group is called UGK (Underground Kingz). Pimp C was a living legend down south before he even got on that song. That's one of the main reasons he didn't want to get on it, one of the reasons was that 2pac didn't fuck with Jay-Z and the other was he didn't want people saying that they only know about UGK because of Jay-Z, and that's exactly what you just said. Now that Mater P thing that's another story but even then all the tracks Pimp C was on No Limit were all jammin straight southern classics.
"My money look better on my wife" ooowiii!! That's fire
Pimp went crazy on Big Pimpin'......absolutely murdered that shit🔥💯🔥
Still jammin' "Tell me something GOOD" on into 2022!!! 🙌🏿❤ #UGK4EVA. 🙌🏿❤ #SoFukinLegendary ❤🙌🏿
Okkaaayyyy, yes Queen me too!!!!!
Love his love he will forever have for his partner 🙏🏾. Great session.
Man these interviews too damn good!
GOOD INTERVIEW!!! ALOT OF GOOD INFORMATION FROM YALL FELLOWS!!! KEPP UP THE GOOD WORK YALL ‼️‼️
Pimp c was truth Tupac fans
Man why I get along with bun so well he stays humble.
Jay-Z had to put a 2nd verse on that song after Pimp C's verse when he saw the reaction that pimp C's verse was getting
Nah...he did it to add more bars to the song because it felt short considering what JAy and Bun B did. Bun B really filled that bitch up tho!
He put a second verse because C only put 8 bars
@@cmbey2425 exactly.
2nd verse was trash
@@thefreakyrobber0 I dont disagree with that. I'm pretty sure it was rushed because of time constraints/other anomalies we dont know.
Classic! Bun had the best verse Pimp had the most famous verse and scene in the video…So happy I came up in this era of Rap!
Only ah Godly Man knows how to Love HIS WIFE as Christ Love the church, much love much respect Bun
You can eat off this one interview for years . Bun dropped so many Gems
Rip Chad Butler. By far one of the best ever
Thanks bun for the pimp c love.
This man was a true legend. 2 pac and tony snow my favorite rapper of all time. Macon georgia representing
5:45 Tv 📺 ain’t got no temperature!!! Classic Pimp C!!
Naw the truth is, Pimp didn’t want to do a song with Jay because PAC didn’t like Jay
💯 Exactly ‼️
Damn pimp and pac was locked like that? What’s the backstory
I guess you saying he forgot about that somewhere a long the line🤣😂. Or he told Pimp it was ok.
