The Trill is Gone

Nothing was happening in the world today. Then Pimp C was found dead in an upscale hotel room. One half of the Port Arthur rap duo UGK, Pimp C is an original legend in the annals of Southern Rap, especially in the Houston scene.

Pimp C on Russell Simmons, "I just made peace with the lil change his name. Yeah, I said 'dick-in-the-booty-ass-nigga.' I know what I'm talking about. Bitch, I'll air you out too."

UGK classic, Diamonds and Wood

Yo Thomas: Nice funking call on this story man. I had no idea who this terrible rapper was until you wrote this story, but it had dividends at my tutoring house in Petworth tonight.
I was able to respond to a kid asking me if I knew about it, "Uh yeah the ridin' dirty guys from Texas or Houston or something?" To which a surprised kid said "You knew him." Now this kid had been testing a little bit earlier in the evening, so this left me the perfect opportunity to joan.

"I wouldn't go so far as to say I knew the man, but by pure chance I happened to read a random blog entry on a friends website that mentioned it! His name was Pimp C right!?"

See, in front of the kids, I don't give a fuck about pop culture. Not because I don't, but because they have plenty of other places to go to figure that out.
