• Pimp C Found Dead In Hollywood

    Tuesday Dec 4 2:56 PM CST posted by xxl staff

    After an early report from TMZ, sources inside the rapper’s label have confirmed that UGK’s Pimp C has passed away. TMZ reported that Pimp, real name Chad Butler, was found dead this morning in his room at Hollywood’s Mondrian Hotel. After responding to a 911 call, L.A. County Fire found him in his bed. The cause of death is unknown at this point. He was 33 years old.

    Pimp C was one of the most influential rappers and producers in hip-hop’s history. His work with his partner Bun B in UGK over the last 15 years helped lay the foundations of Southern rap.

    One reply said something about the deaths of Sean Taylor and Kayne’s mother affecting hiphop, I don’t see how.
    It just amazes me how the stupidest comments can be found in XXL comment boards and in the reader mail-ins.
    Well, I guess we can be glad that you’re not illiterate. Even if that comprehension is on a 5th grade level.

    Although I agree with you about other deaths impacting hip-hop, I must say you missed the point altogether. You never once mentioned the topic of the post. We lost someone very influential today.

    You have put in the work, you are a legend…REST IN PEACE PIMP C!!!

    that is what he gets for acting hard. and nobody knows how he died. u see how today’s society is? Elvis died on his fucking toliet, they came up with a conclusion about his death. Marilyn Monroe Was found dead in her West Hollywood home they found a bottle of pills near her and said she overdosed. so why can’t they find out how our rap pioneers are dying and being killed?ask yourself that.

    Roses tossed upon Pimp C’s grave
    Made the death feel strange and the South feel enraged
    I gave a small kiss to his mother then wiped her tears
    A single pound to Bun B to ease his fears

    Damn. This is an incredibly sad day. I was literally just listening to “Trill N***** Don’t Die” and “Diamonds & Wood” about 15 minutes ago and then got a call from my friend telling me the news. I have the utmost respect for Chad Butler, he spoke words to me that I rewound and played constantly. He and Bun B have been expressing honest, genuine, and heartfelt music for years. His words moved people and personally made me feel really good. He was the beginning of many trends in rap including being the subject of the catch phrase - “Free Pimp C.” Bun B kept Pimp C’s name in hip hop’s mind while he was incarcerated, now it’s up to all of us to keep his memory alive now that he is no longer physically with us.

    It’s a sad sad day. Bay Area legend Spice 1 (Robert L. Green, Jr.)the “East Bay Gangster” was shot in Hayward, CA last night in what is being described as an attempted burglary. He is currently in critical condition according to ballerstatus.com.

    Pimp in Paradise, Mr. Butler. Get well Mr. Green.

Don’t even mention that retards name and tha REAL legends in tha same sentence. He talk tha same trash as all tha other RAPPERS out. Go cop The Roots and find out what HIP-HOP sounds like. And for that 3R’DEE A.K.A 3RD cat thats what I’m talkin’ ’bout all those cats you named is G-A-R-B-A-G-E. Okay? They (includin’ pimp c and all tha other weak ass RAPPERS from texas) give Texas a bad name. ‘Cause anybody who ain’t into that weak ass RAP shit knows what kind of music to expect when you come to Texas. G-A-R-B-A-G-E. UGK bein’ a perfect example.

    R.I.P Pimp C. You’re like the father I never had. With your street savy with a Texas twang. I commend you used the pimpin mentality to organize the streets in Texas and stand up for the South. Also you used it show a wonderful aspect of the prosperity we can have if we stopped beef. I wish you were here longer to pimp Corporate America with Bun B and UGK. I send my condolences out to Bun B and his family. You will truly be missed. God bless you.

    The South never would have been without UGK. Every rapper from the South should be paying their respects to this man. That includes you Jeezy.

He was a funny dude who really brought some levity to the rap game with his funny and candid interviews. A true hogg in the game. It’s a damn shame he didn’t get to enjoy his freedom out of jail for a bit longer. He was finally starting to get the recognition he deserved.

    RIP PIMP C

    Damn, I thought this year would pass without losing anybody I really liked but with Pimp C no longer with us, I guess UGK will never get the props him and Bun B deserved together. I know Bun will still be able to produce great music but it has to be like losing a brother when someone you have worked and grinded with for so long suddenly passes. I like “Sweet Daddy James” because brother spoke his mind whether it was a popular view of an issue or not. It’s sad I was just playing “Front, Back and Side To Side” yesterday and this happens. I don’t want to use the word genius since it is so heavily overused today but he is a legend. Another brother gone too soon. May the Lord bless and give strength to his family and friends.

    Pimp C Lives On says:

    Sweet Jones, you’ll be missed man. All of these southern rappers owe you a piece of their paychecks man for what you did for the South. UGK and The Ghetto Boys started it all for the South. It was ‘92 when I first got hipped to UGK. Went to see Menace and heard Pocket Full of Stones and fell in love with the sound.

    TI, OutKast, Mafia, Dungeon Family, Jezzy, Lil Wayne & Baby, Ludacris: All of ya’ll cats need to get together and put some money down on Pimp’s children for college man becuase it’s like that. Pimp lost money and time in jail and he was trying to build it up again.
    Pimp was incarcerated when the South started getting money. He missed the Golden Years of his earning power.

    Rappers, do something right man and get together. Have a benefit concert for Pimp’s kids. I hope somebody with ties to these cats reads this and puts something together. Soon too, put beef aside and egos as well, be decent human beings man. Have some heart.

    A concerned fan says:

    I wonder, does anyone else find it odd that people who speak out against oppression and authority seem to always end up dying early?

    Before UGK became more mainstream Pimp and Bun rapped about many topics that had an impact on their life. A couple of those topics were police brutality/abuse of authority and the division (beef) between many of today’s leading emcees. Pimp spread a message to young black males to not accept the authority of police when it is abused and fight back if not for their freedom, for their life. He was also very outspoken on the topic of uniting rappers. Pimp realized that if these artists would work together instead of fighting all of the time they would be able to make a lot more money. They could do this by pooling resources and producing music without the major record labels taking a huge percentage of their profits. This would also allow creative and intellectual freedom to express whatever they felt, not just what the record labels permit.

    Both of these issues involve a sort of power structure that are designed to control and maintain this control over the people.

    Pimp C’s lyrics threatened the balance of this control by spreading a message to his audience.

    Pimp C was later sentenced to 8 years in prison for refusing to do his community service that was his punishment for aggravated assault. He then served almost 4 years for this, something that a high profile white artist would never have to do. While in prison Bun B put out his first solo album which brought UGK mainstream success. After getting out of prison Pimp C put out his own solo album which also did very well. After that they produced their latest album Underground Kings, which is a huge mainstream success.

    Is it possible that some higher power did not like the things that Pimp C was saying and did something about it? Maybe he was put in jail, but this wasn’t enough. It didn’t solve the problem. It actually made them more popular among listeners, using phrases like “free Pimp C.” UGK could have used mainstream success to once again spread their messages to those that are oppressed. Pimp’s death will help to ensure that this does not happen. There are many people that could benefit from this that have the resources to make it appear to be an accident. Don’t be surprised when the autopsy reports the cause of his death was a drug overdose, something that could easily be secretly administered.

    Dead Prez spoke out against things like this in their song “Hip-Hop.” Stating “You know it’s bigger than hip-hop” and “If we don’t get who shot Tupac they’re going to get us all.” Dead Prez is another group that is kept out of the mainstream eye because of their political messages. The idea that Tupac was assassinated because of his influence on African-American culture is covered in this song. What they are saying is Tupac also tried to disrupt this balance of power and was silenced because of this. They also state that we have to “get who shot Tupac before they get us all,” indicating that whoever we have to “get” is very powerful because they are trying to “get us all”; “all” refering to rappers who speak out against authority.

    Was Pimp C one of the “all”?

    I am not saying he was silenced on purpose for sure, but I would like everyone to at least acknowledge the possibility.

    It is time to truly “FREE PIMP C” and the message he tried to spread.

    Think. Question. Never settle. Cause one day you’re here, the next day you’re gone.

    Man I felt like I did when I heard about Tupac`s death, another real/trill rapper passing. This man was like family, he said shit that I was going through or was about to go through. Man April 7,`06 I was taking my sister to work and I had my pistol on the seat and she was like is that necessary and I told her man these niggas out here will try to get you just because you riding clean. She started talking all this shit about not having my pistol and shit, almost changed my mind. I was bumping that Bun B #3 ‘Get Throwed’ and Pimp was like ‘watch your paper guard your life cause most of these niggas ain`t living right,keep your pistol fuck a fight.’ I was like man fuck that shit and the next day a nigga tried to carjack me with two pistols in his hand and thank God I didn`t listen to my sister cause this nigga was not even gone let me get my children out the car so it was me or him at that point and it wasn`t gone be me. So for yal lame ass niggas talking that weak shit if you ain`t feeling the Pimp get the fuck out the post with that disrespect shit.

You act like somebody gonna do somethin’ ’cause I say SO..He weak anyway. What would you do? N-O-T-H-I-N’ you lame ass muhfuckah. And anybody who would do anything to anybody for sayin’ SO? over some faggot ass muhfucka they don’t know is RETARDED. So quit wit’ tha internet threats cornball. Shits for lil’ white kids and tha youngin’s. I said that shit at work yesterday, when I went out to places, just about everywhere I went. And I’ma do it again today. Ain’t nobody do shit then. And ain’t nobody gonna do nuttin’ now. WHY ’cause nobody gives a fuck. A lot of people was like “Who tha fuck is Pimp C?” in tha first place. And second SO? No I admit in Houston some imbecile might do somethin’. But they dumb as fuck down there anyway. So shut ya fuckin’ mouth bruh.

    And for that muhfucka who’s talkin’ ’bout “We lost Eazy (who was is and is wack anyway),Pac,Biggie,Pun etc….now Pimp C!! WHY!!? AHH….What tha fuck is you talkin’ ’bout? Why? ‘Cause it was his time to go! Have you read what you replyin’ to?! HE WASN’T shot..His death ain’t got nothin’ to do wit’ those. Neither does Pun and Eazy. They too died NON violent deaths. WTF? Lol…

    Fuck is this homo talkin’ ’bout?! You don’t even know wtf a backpack rapper is. Don’t get all offended ’cause you can’t comprehend what these retards is callin’ “backpack rap”.

But I cordially invite you to come down south and try that junk. See if you don’t get your wig split fool. Have some respect it could have been any one of us and the way your acting God just might choose your fool ass next.

    Man the Media is never going to tell anyone why he passed away! In case all of you all did not know, PIMP C died from an overdose of cocaine. They might not ever say anything because, the record label, as well as the Rap industry, does not want to look bad. To close this Message off, I would like to say R.I.P. to PIMP C, and that he was, is, and still will be a legend in the SOUTH! WE LOVE YOU PIMP C. WE WILL SEE YOU IN HEAVEN ONE DAY!

    - From PA to H-TOWN we gonna hold it down! DEUCE!

    One day you’re here, baby the next day you’re gone. RIP PIMP C.
    I still cant believe that you’re gone man. They still havent found shit out about the cause of your death yet. If it Justin Timberlake or some other famouse white celebrity, they’ll found out something within minutes. But it’s ok PIMP. You’re in a better place right now. Bun keep yo head up. I know you’re hurting right now. It’s not going to be the same now that the PIMP is gone. RIP PIMP C
