3k still had the weakest verse out of them all
It was the right decision the verse literally rolled the red carpet out for Pimp C to come in as hard as he did.
That’s a dam fact
I really don't know wtf y'all are talking about 😂😂 The beat keeps playing for me 🤷🏾♀
@@justadrumthey’re talking about how the drums and bass line don’t come in until pimp’s verse starts.
@@DJJE928 Ah gotcha…I had to watch another videos with Bun kinda explaining but you tied it together. Appreciate that!
lmao as hard as he did, 💩 was garbage
3000 had the hardest verse on the song . He set pimp up perfectly. When that beat drop imo
Exactly. I was obsessed with this song when it came out.
Nah sweet jones had the best verse on this one
Big Boi
3000 had the best verse on Cool Breeze song Watch For The Hook
Nah pimp or bun....outkast were trash on that song...respectfully
Pimp was World renown for speaking his first mind.
I didn't like the verse either.
And being wrong
It’s a Texas THANG!
@@BlaqRainFresh Thats yall opinion
Real nixxa like pac they not gone let you get away with doing phuck 💩 claiming to be tru to da game it’s not gonna happen
Andddddd this is why, andre is year 3000. It was extremely complimentary to the overall track.
Andre’ 3000 is the dude that you just can’t help but to be cool with and show love,support, and respect.☮️🎤
I wish somebody would lock him in the studio with beats and say you can't come out til we get atleast an ep 😂😂😂
Andre strikes me as a man who has mastered the very obscure art of saying "no" and getting away with it.
Bun B always saving the day kuz Chad almost ditched the Big Pimpin feature 😂😂😂
Man!! I was going to write the exact same thing. Pimp C stayed standing in his own way. Chad was something else.
@@JXSmith-fr5xyI love pimp he said he rode with pac and he said phuck them nixxas money we already rich str8 G 💩
what's the story about that I don't know it
@@standardbrah The South never got any respect from the North. They played them as dumb rappers not lyricist. The South had to kick-in the doors . Outkast, Goodie Mob, Killer Mike, UGK, Cash Money, No Limit, Scarface, Three 6 Mafia, Tela, 8Ball & MJG, T.I. and Young Dro, Pastor Troy. The South was hot and now Northern dudes are wanting to jump on southern rappers tracks after looking down at them SO long. We was singing Project Pat, " Don't Save Her, She Don't Wanna Be Saved"... " I wanna be savvved".
@@JXSmith-fr5xy sure i know that, that's why when outkast got the award at the BET awards 3k said, "the South got sum to say." But what about the big pimpin feature?
It made me want to go back and listen and appreciate
We miss you so much, Chad Butler. It would never be another like you you GK for life. 1:53
The song came together like magic. It was destined to be a classic from the Hiphop Gods
In the words of Tony Baker, “I Never Knew!!!”
😭😭😂😂
cramppppppppppp crampppppppppppppp
😂😂😂😂
Andre 3000 the 🐐 Players Anthem legendary.
With a little research you can find there are at least 3-4 perspectives on how this song came about. First there was Project Pat with “Choose U” (Layin’ Da Smack Down album) The rest is history. Classic. 👏🏽
So we going act like 3 ain’t have a super dope voice impression of pimp lol 🤝🏾
You’re absolutely right. When he spoke I was drawn in to it like it was actually pimp. Glad I wasn’t the only one who felt that way about his impression
Y'all just be saying anything
We Southerner's know how to really emulate our people
One of my favorite songs of all time.
The video complimented the song also. Everyone’s reaction to Andre verse was hilarious!
Wow never knew about this 😳😱.
RIP Pimp C 🕊️🌹🙏🏼.
Andre had that vision, his verse is so fire, that the build up for that beat to drop made it a perfect intro for Pimp C.
Outkast was so tight that even tho Andre went 1st and Big Boi went 4th their verses still complimented each other.
It's cause with the Pattern he rhymes he doesn't stay on beat
So it was smart to do it that way
But the thing is... he DOES stay on beat... simply a lil unorthodox lol
@@sirtavion20what the phuck that goofy nixxa talking bout pimp C voice
@@sirtavion20 you would have to literally put Those verses directly over the beat to see
@@Collab2023-zx1mr I have good sir lol I have
Classic Pimp! RIP Chad
If I wasn't rapping baby
When does this episode drop?????
3K looks like he’s in his element of just having fun on here
3 stacks made the right decision
3000 verse made the song perfect
Was just bumping this yesterday. Ended up being a perfect balance on the track
T-Pain in this video will always be a highlight
Yep I noticed that too 😂
There are a million rappers....Andre is a Hip Hop Artist...
I love hearing the behind the scenes stories!! All songs created have great stories behind them!!
Bruh the irony just speaks to Stacks & Pimps Legend both creative differences still came out all time CLASSIC! And literally gave birth to the video concept shout out Bryan Barber who couldn’t miss at that time
Pimp c didn't see the vision 🤣
Rip chad
Thats DOPE!!! 😂😂😂
That beat drop is one of my favorite intros EVER!!! That's wild! 🤣
Andre3000🐐
I get it, Pimp was the producer. How u gon remix my beat for your verse?
Dj Paul from 3 6 mafia made that beat
It was project pats beat first
@@thomasanderson468pimp was the co producer bruh. Check them credits
Quick lil story
Paul Made the beat, it was originally for Pat who used it for “choose You” which was In 2002, while pimp was locked up during those times .. He heard the song and asked Paul to hold that beat and wanted to rap over it & when he got out 05’.. He and Bun did “UnderGround Kingz” in 2007, and knowing Pimp, he of course he paid Paul(& juice) for the Beat, and it technically became his beat, so the outcome is what is was ..
And why he got mad? Well Pimp was expressing how he hated where hip hop was going, been out for 1.5 years (before his death) and hated how soft and gay it was becoming, and Atlanta was a huge problem to it, but respected artist like Outkast, TI and Ludacris .. but also still and wouldn’t allow anyone to walk all over him(pimp) .. and the sad thing is, Pimp never got to see the Respect and love the song had received because, 3-4 months later he passes away & during those months.. Son was ducking and running from tryna be killed .. if you know, you know
@@erichouston813shol was and pat song still goes hard
My hubby and I cut our wedding cake to that song at our wedding 😅 our guests loved it ✨
@@TAO502 … hmm.. I believe you’re referring to yourself being straight 🗑️!
@@mzdeb4lyfe My bitch a choosy lover
Never fuck without a rubber
Never in the sheets, like it on top of the cover
Money on the dresser, drive a Kompressor
Top notch hoes get the most, not the lesser
Trash like to fuck for forty dollars in the club
Fuckin' up the game, bitch, ya gets no love
She be cross country, givin' all that she got
A thousand a pop, I'm pullin' Bentleys off the lot
I smashed up the gray one, bought me a red
Every time we hit the parkin' lot we turn head
Some hoes wanna choose but them bitches too scary
Your bitch chose me, you ain't a pimp, you a fairy
@@mzdeb4lyfe coming from someone that played a song about hoes and pimps at her wedding 😝 ok
Maann.. pimp’s verse was a catchy cadence and easy to memorize out of the whole song R.I.P to Uncle Chad aka Tony snow
Imagine if Legends collab more like 3-6 mafia Outkast & UGK ..
Did on that song
They dropped a Bomb 💣 💣
That’s a legendary song! 3 Stacks did the right thing. It’s one of the best collaborations ever in hip hop history. Everybody brought their A game!
I just love Andre
R.i.p to the pimp man!!
Classic Pimp C Rest Easy Legend Fly High
That song is simply iconic... 3 Stack and Pimp really did their did on a whole other level
Don’t mess with Texas !!!
Dont mess wit coke heads is more like it. 😂
Andre’s a visionary
I love these old stories
"So I typed a text to a girl I used to see
Sayin' that I chose this cutie pie with whom I wanna be
And I apologize if this message gets you down
Then I CC'ed every girl that I'd see-see 'round town"- 3K
" I to y'all frowning but I'd rather see her smiling. Wetness all around me true I'm no island, a peninsula maybe" 3K the coldest!!!
*Hate to
THAT BOI 3000 PLAYED HIS PART THOUGH 👁🖤🅰️♏️
I get it. It’s kind of like when Kendrick started Euphoria off with the slow Teddy Pendergrass flow. I will admit I was a little worried. That was until I heard the beat switch and the infamous Shooo Shooo then I was like ok 👌🏾 I see what you did there Kendrick. 😉
Smartest decision on the beat, it set the tone PERFECTLY.
His Pimp C impression was so good 😂
Bro the way Andre raps it makes it so hard when pimp comes in after 3k
Where I'm from that song is the National Anthem. F that stars and strips ish!!
One of my favourite 3 Stack verses 👌🏽
Peace to UGK, Outkast, Three 6 and Willie Hutch
Pimp C got upset over the littlest things.
Because Tony wouldn’t allow anyone to walk over him, specially anyone from Atlanta .. but did respect Artist like Dre
He was a Capricorn we just cut that way lol 🤦🏽♂️
Plus a lil coke to boot prolly
He was just a real street dude.. he even got mad at jay z because he didn’t want to go “pop” with big pimpin
@@erichouston813C wasn’t no real street dude he was an emotional mama’s boy with a coke habit.
Real Talk Plain Simple Facts 💯: Long Live Pimp C iconic music
Wow …great info 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Still in my regular rotation at all times.
LONG LIVE THE PIMP! Rest in power
I remember as a kid getting a haircut I was watching the world premiere when they would show the video being made on bet
It was some real GOATS ON THAT TRACK only one was missing is FACE SMOKE SOMETHING BIH RIP PIMP
Aint no other pimp man!! Pimp c ah legend
Pimp C was SoReal!💯💪🏾❤️
Man when I DJ thats the song I chop up to start my sets! Song is fire just the way it is!
The dopest wedding song ever.
Right decision and love the song
The original is song is from Project Pat, three 6 mafia. Choose U
Good to hear stories about pimp
Rip Pimp, always kept it a 100!
Now i gotta go listen to it again... 😂 🔥 🔥 🔥
Pimp was just being pimp 3 stacks know that but bun b had to let pimp know wait till the beat drop its going to hit hard on god 3 stacks really sound just like pimp the way he talk
That was originally project pats beat “ take the charge” (Laying the smack down )
Now I hear it in a new light
3000's verse was the best feature ever!
Rip to Chad Butler. 1:54 Players anthem. That's my favorite track. Smash of the grey one bought me a red. You ain't pimp a fairy. Pimp c was very mad.
Pimp was a legend. Pimp also had a genuine misunderstanding when it came to the power of others. He thought doing Big Pimpin would make them lose fans lol
Miss that boy!!
Same guy who didnt like the Big Pimping beat. Once again BB saved the day. Lol😂.
Rest in Paradie to the great Pimp C. Truly one of a kind.
Well technically it was a DJ Paul beat Pimp just remixed it so he couldnt be that mad
💿🏆💯
Andre is the greatest rapper in history 🐐
R.i.p Pimp C
Pimp got mad at everybody 😂😂.....UGK and OutKast are 2 of the greatest hip hop duos of all time, not just in the south either
Chad💔
Coo story
That syrup clouds your judgement. R.I.P. Pimp though frfr
lol @ Pimp being mad at Dre for taking the beat out when that dude basically filmed his own Big Pimpin video and sent it to Jay rather than just flying to their location and being in the real video.
Hit what hit i am hear for all the ugk smoke
That was just Pimp being Pimp.... RIP Legend...
Well Damn, how would Pimp react to the mf'n flute album?
Dope song, I may be in the minority, but I like the version with 3-6 Mafia. Both classic tho💯🔥🔥
Pimp c didn't hold back if he had a issue but Andre was right how he did it
Pimp C made that beat🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Nope
I love the verse
For historical reference, Andre didnt even wanna be on it till he found out Big Boi was on it. Keep listening to that flute album 3k fans lmao
i made my entrance for my wedding ceremony with dre's verse playing and i made sure the dj knew to cut it right before pimp's verse came in or i probably wouldn't be married 😂
That why it's a classic no disrespect towards Pimp.C
To me, Bun and Big Boi's verses mean nothing on this track. Stacks sets it up, the beat drops and goes perfectly into Pimp. The dichotomy between Stacks being on some marriage and Pimp being on pimpin' kills it. The other verses are just filler.
I would have to disagree. Obviously, their verses went da hardest rapping wise, but when I listen to Bun and Boi verses, I think that it makes the topic of the song come full circle. Each verse gives the philosophy of every man's respected decisions on how men view relationships. 3k is the one choosing to marry, Pimp is the playa, Bun is the pimp in action (recruitment), and Big Boi is the big brother giving advice on being cautious of relationship entrapment.
Crazy to hear 3000 use that vanacular...
*vernacular (irony was too good i had to say it) - also it means regional language, i think you just wanted to use a big word lol
but i came to comment ' WHAT?!?' in what world is it crazy to hear 3k, one of the best MC's ever with waaaay more complex and impressive verses but even with his verse here his vernacular isnt actually his biggest asset though he does use vernacular in the more colloquial meaning in rap as 'vocabulary'
But he's not - he's not Aesop Rock vernacular-wise as far as it meaning stuff like vocab but also using it to say things in a more interesting way (thats something 3k does here like the 'glad its/gladys night/knight' line but he's TECHNICALLY talented and imaginitive and artistic in ways that seep into verses so the LAST thing i expect/found to be 'crazy' is 3k using whats honestly not even close to his best bars (or vernacular) tbh
@@thatJAWNraps thanks for the book.. But I meant he sounded like Pimp for a sec.. Also to sound so authentic to a rejoin he is not from. Also in a form he doesn't use in his latest interviews. Thanks for the English lesson(yes that was passive aggressive/sarcasm..) feel free to correct my use of any of that if you like. I'm here to share and learn.. Not be right. Good bless.
Pimp C attraction to self sabotage was impeccable....
Bun said trust the process Pimp
Pimp C was a producer and producers get a little sensitive about changing their vision unless you have the better vision, that's why a lot of us over produce and singers and rappers will ground us. Luckily Pimp C respected 3000 enough to accept it but Pimp C also didn't wanna do Big Pimpin' with Jay-Z, he thought it was too commercial so Pimp don't care who you are, if he ain't feeling it he ain't feeling it unless you show him the vision like Bun B did for him back then.
