FIRST!sad sad sad!
has anyone come out and said what it was that he died from? i know they said natural causes but he was only 33 so that doesn’t seem too natural to me.
it’s good to see that Slim Thug and Letoya got back together again
dying at 33 doesn’t seem very natural but if he died in his sleep because his heart stopped or he had a brain embolism i think they consider that a natural death.
R.I.P. Pimp C
help me
the casket pic is a bit much ya’ll should remove that.rip pimp c
Morning *****’s!!!!
Pimp C will go down as one of best in hip hop. http://WWW.SIDELINESHOW.COM
Damn, they couldnt dress up for the man’s funeral ?
Makes it hard for hip hop to gain more respect. And actuallly black people as a whole. But I digress
RIP Pimp
May Pimp C rest in peace. My condolences to his family.
I would like to send my prayers out to Pimp and his family. And “Bored at Work” your a *****in hater! He died of NATURAL CAUSES…even the Med Examiner said the same thing u *****in *****! I’m a true fan…and yeah he’s not perfect but he an’t O.D on nothin…and u can bet that!
First I want to say is RIP Pimp C
What baffles me, is that Jay-z and Snoop won’t be at the funeral because they won’t have extra security. Jay-z supposedly has all this money so you mean you can’t beef up your own security to pay your respects to this Legend. But on the flip side had this been the opening of a new club he would have came out. Jay-z as a man gets no respect from me but as a rapper, I think he is the best out there, other than that he is a disgrace. To think about it I guess he figured alot of stans were going to be at the funeral, I guess he didn’t want to run into them. LOL

I’m glad you said that. Upon his death people were posting rude comments & questioning his career.
I was touchy at how he was given the headline “Rapper known for Big Pimpin with Jay-Z & International Players Anthem with Outkast.” That is sooo not true and I hope that now he will get recognized for his skills, colorful attitude, politically correct & incorrect commentary, and individual way of doing things. All of UGK’s albums were entertaining, controversial and dealt with a lot of issues that didn’t make it into the mainstream.
Pimp C was a true pioneer and representative of Southern Rap.

TRUE DAT
LOOK AT BISHOP MAGIC HUAN. DO YOU HAVE TO BRING ALL THAT PIMP GAME THING AND ISH TO SOMEBODY’S FUNERAL
RIP TO A TRUE ICON
Oh yea but maybe its just me but why are *****s wearing hoodies, du rags, and caps to a funeral. I just think it wouldn’t hurt to at least wear a button up polo and some slacks at the very least. I mean come on its a funeral.
How can you call yourself “freshfromthestreetz” and not know who Pimp C is? Fresh from sesame street? What are you 10? Be somebody.
now that pimp is gone i think that we should just let him rest everybody wondering if he died of natural causes or did he OD it don’t matter ain’t *****ody perfect i bet half of the folks on here on some its just a part of life yall just show yall respect to that man and his family RIP PIMP C
R.I.P
PIMP C
Rest In Peace PIMP!!!
Don Magic Juan….
I think this would have been a good time to quote Pimp C…
“Take that monkey ish off your embarr*****ing us…”
Dummy…he looks a hot moving fool mess. That was not the time or the place for that. Village idiot.
I agree with ya’ll on the attire issue. I wish attendees would have tried to dress more casual too.
I agree with you all about the atire. I was actually going to comment on that. It’s a funeral. You can put the crowns and the jeans aside for a day to show respect. You can show respect in any clothing but I’m pretty sure they all have enough money for macys. It’s a time for everything.
P.S. RIP
My condolences to his family. Does anybody dress up for funerals anymore. RESPECT……
i loved pimp c’s music he was a great artist and deserves nothing but respect i know those who knew him will miss him greatly. REST IN PEACE YOUNG BLOOD.
PIMP C AND BUN B EMBODY THAT REAL INTERNAL PULL YOU FEEL WHEN YOU KNOW YOU’RE FEELING WHAT REAL HIP HOP IS (i.e. our struggle set to beats) like just sing the hook to Pocket fulla stones..yeah that feeling right there!
RIP PIMP CHAD BUTLER
Damn, they could not send him home better than this??? My people can sure act like some darn clowns sometimes. They are all dressed like sh**. This was a damn funeral, not the strip club, pathetic!!!
RIP Pimp C…You will be greatly missed!
He was a great representer of TX rap. My all time favorite rap song by UGK “Left-Right Side to Side”…..Never let hoe ***** *****s ride….
Do negroes think they are going to melt if they wear a suit? What happen to the times when black people were the best dressed people in America? Now, these cats are wearing doo rags in a church, stumping in some TIMS. That is plain ridiculous. Throw on a suit. You are not keeping it real by not wearing a suit; you are just keeping it real STUPID.
More and more every day, the images depicted in the cartoon The Boondocks are coming to reality. And I fear for our race. This is what our so called Negro Leaders should be addressing: our loss of dignity and decency in the public arena. Not putting so much enery on the word ***** and Hip Hop.
I agree with all the comments about the dress code…I understand they wanted to have UGK signs and all but come on!…I’m happy atleast Chamillionnaire put on a suit…smh@t-shirts and stuff just hood…exactly what people see as hip hop nowadays…tshirts, heavy chains, jeans, hoodies, durags, crowns, need I say more?
Our bodies are fragile. There are many things that can take us, especially if we neglect ourselves…and that does not always include alcohol and drugs.
REST IN PEACE PIMP C!
Ty…
Thank you…thank you.
“Do negroes think they are going to melt if they wear a suit?”
I feel you and I watch the Boondocks. Half of the people that don’t or get mad at the content and subject matter are guilty.
….a hit dog will hollar.
I just know these fools get on my nerves. I mean they looked like they rolled out of bed and was like “Let me go to this funeral…” made it home afterwards and layed back down. I want to throw all of those durags in a damned bonfire…
…nickas acting like they have a fresh wrap like a woman wearing that stupid thing everywhere.
what’s even worse about Don Juan (I refuse to call hima bishop) showign up is the fact that he arrived LATE!!! and caused a commotion!
“Bishop Don Magic Juan, a former pimp turned rap celebrity, arrived just before the ceremony ended, causing a stir as he sauntered down the aisle with an entourage of women who were scantily clad in gold and red. He wore a foot-tall crown and a blue velvet cape.”
WTF!! my people my people!
Antlee/80’s, I agree. Why wear a doo rag to a funeral…bamas!!
Scrolling up…I agree with all the other comments about the dress…and Bishop Don Juan, lawd, we have got to do better!!
R.I.P.Chad
On another note LeToya looks FIERCE!!!!
I agree! I understnad they are rappers but everyone needs to own at least one black suit! RIP Pimp C
@AntLee
(cosign)yes the casket pic is a bit much, and they could have dressed up a little bit more, or do we not do that anymore? it has been a while 4 me. anywayz 4 the last time R.I.P Pimp C
RIP Pimp………………. SWEET JONES!!!
He is a hottie. I am his big fan. It seems he is single now. I saw his profile on millionaire&celeb dating site WealthyRomance.com last week.
Yeah…they all look like the walked out of the “first day out” jail release….God bless the dead….
^^^^Oh the spammer is just plain wrong for this.
Oh never mind, bossip must have took it down.
Oh no they didn’t it’s still there. If I wasn’t a fan of Pimp C, then I’d treat it differently, but I’m a fan, RIP PIMP C!!! (stupid spammers).
I must agree with everyone about the way they dressed BUT i mean his OWN MOTHER didnt even dress up? whats with that? idk its possible that they took these pics before the burial bc im from houston & it was all over the radio that the memorial was public & the funeral to follow was for family & close friends…
anywho regardless of fame or anything he was someones son, relative, close friend SO now that hes gone its those who have been left behind that need the support
AntLee
Damn, they couldnt dress up for the man’s funeral ?
Makes it hard for hip hop to gain more respect. And actuallly black people as a whole.
****************************************************
I was thinking the same thing, but even his mom was G’d up for the service, so to each his own I guess. I will stop complaining about rappers not dressing up for award shows. If they won’t dress up for a funeral, I guess they ain’t dressing up for a damn thing. Their wedding maybe?
MAYBE..IT WAS SUPPOSE TO BE A ORDINARY FUNERAL!
THEY SAID THAT ” PIMP C KEPT IT REAL, SO MAYBE THEY WANTED TO KEEP IT ((hood)))) REAL!
HIS HOOD, ISN’T ANY DIFFERENT FROM MY HOOD!
RIP PIMP C!
ALTHOUGH..SLIM THUG..COULD’VE TAKEN THAT GREADY NYLON OFF OF HIS HEAD, AND TOYA LOOK 10 YEARS OLDER THAN HER AGE! WHERE IS JAY Z??
GREASY!
I was thinking that same thing as most about how people should have dressed up.
ist timer here, as far as the attire thing, i’ve been to my share of funerals and this is a reflection of most, not all, urban funerals, i live in philly, and most times we wear t shirts w/person pic and rip, or we rock jerseys i’ve seen hats and doo rags. to each his own, i personally don’t always dress up, my attire varies based on the person and my connection with that person.
NO DISRESPECT..BUT BUN B IS LOOKING HOT!
Who’s the chick in the gl*****es in the first pic? hot! I’d give it to her deep…put her right to sleep.
I never knew much about Pimp c or UGK’s music, but im am deeply sad at him dyin so young and what all of you guys have been saying seems he made a huge impact over the years….
And i am so *****ed at seeing all these rappers and that bishop dressed that way in doo rags and all types of ***** lookin like they goin to a back yard barbeque totally disrespectful
Waaaait/ That’s Letoya in that first pic! Shut up! I thought that was somebody’s mama!!! Dag. I thought J and B would have been there. Is that true about the security thing with J?? Well maybe they showed their respects in other ways… Who knows? Jay could ve already set up a foundation or something in Pimp C name. Let’s not judge ya’ll
Pimp C a legend? That’s an overstatement. What’s up with the do rags at a funeral? Have some cl*****.
R.I.P. young man.
All that money, and only a few suits. Can you at least wear a button up dress shirt, or high fashion sweater, or even a short sleeve dress shirt with a tie?
its nice to see that all the people who did come out and pay their respects, can we start to support each other and stop being so negative and support each other

I feel you ma, but this was a funeral that would be televised and seen worldwide by whites and black. These superstars can at least role model the correct decorum to the youth.
The young boy is not a fan. He is Pimp C’s son. His name is Dahcorey Butler.
Believe it or not a lot of people ask not to be dressed up for thier funeral. Some say they lived casual and want to go to the next life that way. Only those close to Pimp know who he wanted to be prepared, and how he wanted those attending to be. I’ve had two friends and a cousin all wanted to be in jeans and a t-shirt, and everybody else dressed the same, and thats how I want my fureral. You not going to church, your going to celebrate the life of someone dear to you. If you want to dress up thats you, but only they know what Pimp wanted.
R.I.P. Pimp C
A DEATH IS ALWAYS A VERY SAD SITUATION!
BUT, I HVAE TO ASK…..
WHY DID THAT OLD ***** FOOL “BISHOP DON MAGIC JUAN”
HAD TO GOT TO SOMEONES’ FUNERAL LOOKING LIKE A *****ING IDIOT?
WHAT WAS SO HARD FOR HIM TO JUST KEEP IT SIMPLE WITH A PAIR OF BLACK SLACKS AND A WHITE DAMN SHIRT.
WHY BE EXTRA?
THE “SHOW” IS ALWAYS ON WITH THIS OLD DUDE!
HE COULD OF AT LEASE LAYED LOW UNTIL THE SERVICES WERE OVER… DAMN!
FYI! Something was put out in H-town saying they wanted everybody to wear black *****ies to pay tribute to Pimp C because that’s what he liked to wear. That’s the reason why you don’t see anybody really dressed up.
Asking for comments on pics from a funeral is bad – and going to a funeral to take pics to sell to Bossip is even worse…let people grieve in peace, unless it is a James Brown funeral where they invite cameras in, this was a celebration of one mans life-not a fashion show
R.I.P. PIMP C. THE SOUTH WILL MISS YOU HOMEY!
omg.. hand over heart..
I aint even read all ur comments but I picked up the dress code straight away. I know thats not what the funeral is meant to be abt but c’mon now, I do think those that just rolled up in whateva they wanted to wear are being a bit rude and slack. As sum ppl said earlier, sumtimes the person who has p*****ed wants it that way, but the pimp guys outfit is too much!! Its all a bit show-offy to me. Letoya Luckets lookin a lil hard(red lipstick!), is she back wiv that guy?
I wish i coulda went, but i had to go to school. I see i aint the only one lookin at the dress on them, come on now slim an chamillion yall can do betta than that, yall makin da H look bad
Does it really matter what they have on? I had a homeboy die that before he p*****ed said he didn’t want anyone to cry at his funeral, or wear black or even dress up. Just be happy for him. The man p*****ed, I’m sure no one is concerned with what everyone else is wearing, its not a fashion show its a funeral. Pimp C wasn’t known for wearing a 3 piece suit so its not like they were entirely disrespecting him. Church is about come as you are anyway (atleast mine is) so there is nothing wrong with coming to show your love and respect for someone, regardless of what you have on.
Why is Letoya with that ugly azz man. Slim Thug is OOOOGLY as Hell. She can do sooo much better. Her and B just like ugly azz men. YUK!!!!
RIP Pimp C its so sad, God be with your family at this time – we miss you. Another talented brother gone, its a damn shame.
It’s very hard loseing another great rapper but, “One Day U Here Then The Next Day U Gone”.
R.I.P Pimp C
@ N-Qui-Sa-Tive…and the folks commenting on casual attire worn to the funeral:
Pimp C’s mother specifically requested that everyone was to wear “black *****ies” to the funeral.
This is from a blog on Pimp C’s My*****e page…

From Your #1 Fan
So lets just say that the purpose of going to a funeral is to celebrate the “going home” of your loved one, and it shouldn’t matter what you’re wearing,but what you’re feeling…. I think the real discussion should be about who in the hell told our men that wearing their grandma’s old knee-hi on their heads was super sexy? What happened to the doo-rag being sleep wear? I can just hear the rednecks now – “That boy so lazy, he just keep his sleepin’ stockin’ on all the time so’s he can fall down sleepin’ wherever he at” Oooo, I hate it!…
and magic juan needs to stand thisclose to a lit christmas candle… or one of his “ho’s” newports.
Chad’s family that they may find peace. Amen.
R.I.P Pimp
Now…how about you all focus on the fact that the man has p*****ed on and not what he died from or what people have on at the funeral. None of that holds any relevance to the fact that the man is dead. Hip Hop has lost a legend. Period. One that made a way for all the Jay Z’s and Lil Wayne’s out there. If you know nothing about Pimp C and UGK then there is absolutely NO reason for you to comment. I hope you don’t call yourself a hip hop fan. UGK, 8Ball & MJG…they are true artist. Get ya weight up!
Pimp…we love you. The game will NEVER be the same without. EVER.
-a TRU FAN
To all the people trying to defend the fact that black folks no longer have enough self respect to look presentable at a solemn ceremony by stating that’s what he wanted, that’s what the family wanted, that’s all bullsh-t. My own family requested a casual funeral for my mother when she p*****ed. I flew from Las Vegas to Baltimore and I be damned if i was gonna wear the same sh-t I wore on the plane to lay my mother to rest. I wore a damn suit like your supposed to. You can make up all kinds of excuses for ignorance but at the end of the day the’re just excuses. We need to stop acting like brain dead cl*****less monkey’s and start acting like grown men. If you can’t see how wrong and direspectful showing up looking like a damn hoodlum is when you have enough money to buy the proper attire, then you’re part of the damn problem. I’m sick of my own damn people shaming me at every turn. As far as Jay Z not showing up, i don’t blame him, he didn’t want to be *****ociated with all the stupid looking coons out there putting on a modern day minstral show. Grow the fu-k up!!!
First of all let’s start here…
May GOD Bless…(this part was cut off)
Reminder…GOD says come as you are…NOT put on yo hottest gear and come holla at me!
RIP my Artist of the Week UGK

smh….It’s not about the clothes it’s about the love.
If It’s not about clothes then why not show up in your underwear? Why not show up butt naked? Give me a damn break. I don’t care about Pimp C being a rapper, he was a successful black man that p*****ed away suddenly and unexpectedly. It’s a sad day and a solemn moment and should have been treated as such. Funerals are not for the dead, they’re for the living. It’s about time that we treated life important and carry ourselves in a proper and respectful manner while we’re still here to make a difference. But hey, if black people now days think it’s cool to show up at a funeral looking like a rodeo clown, then so be it. When the next rapper dies, everybody where wifebeaters, pajama pants and some slippers. After all, it’s not about the clothes, it’s about the love…right?
i was there and it was a nice service but ghetto. these are some modest pictures, but most people were concerned about their bling than actually dressing up. chamillionaire was one of the rapper who looked respectable at the service. I cool with a lot of them and i spoke to mike jones and was like damn man you would have dress up for the man funeral, this ***** said, a funeral aint no fashion i came to pay my respect to pimp, i couldnt even reply.
@Coonery
Right.
i had a homeboy to came to my mom funeral in a t-shirt and *****ies and i told that ***** to move around. he was mad but i felt disrespected. this ***** can spend $400 on a ounce of weed but cant come decent to my mom funeral. these mufkas can spend ***** on clothes to go to the club or a party.
and that come as you are ***** does not mean clothes, it means come as you are a sinner, theif, killer, etc
I’m not trying to disrespect Pimp’s life or death.You’re right, what they wear isn’t as important as how they felt or remembered Pimp. But there are ways of doing it that show cl*****. Why not do better if you have the means to do better ?
ok some of you all are a little harsh. Talking about how ugly slim thug is and how old Letoya looks. They look like they are hurt and and trying to be strong. Kinda like people normally look at a funeral if they are not crying. people come on. some of you worry about the wrong sh@#. smh.
HIS OWN MOM DIDNT EVEN DRESS UP. SHAME ON IT ALL. i WOULD COME BACK AND HAUNT ALL OF THEIR *****ES IF MY FAMILY CAME TO MY FUNERAL LOOKING A HOT ***** MESS. OMG PEOPLE!
“IF YOU WILL BE ATTENDING THE FUNERAL ON THURSDAY, PLEASE WEAR BLACK *****IES PER REQUEST OF MAMA WES.”
What’s a *****y, same as doo rag?
No disrespect, but his mama should have known better. I’m sorry, but showing up for a funeral dressed casually is just too damn ghetto. I swear, there are some cultural things that we as black folks need to maintain. Remember the phrase, “Sunday best”? Well that came about because at one point in time, blacks didn’t have the gear or money to afford the finest clothes and options were slim, that’s why, come Sunday, when folks were going to church, they took pride in their appearance and were fresh and clean. It meant something. Fast forward 100 years and while we have made “casual” okay…there should still be boundaries. We can now afford a closet full of nice, designer gear. Why the hell show up looking musty or like you just finished mowing the lawn or rolled outta bed? Makes no sense to me. SMH
and for those who dont think you should dress up at a funeral, why do think they bury the dead in a suit or dress. The way ***** going with *****z now, i wont be suprise to see the dead burried in a t-shirt and *****iess
*****ies are a a casual type of work pants, but real street *****s wear that ***** to be dressed up. I know mama C and she more thug out than pimp c was
I think that people are losing perspective. I too was taken aback by the look but when you see his family–and Bun B dressing casual then you know that’s what was the code. Then you take another step back and look at how he lived and dressed and you come to appreciate that this is what he would have wanted.
I’m fly. My family know I’d prefer suits over jeans at my funeral. I think his own mom would know how he’d want it.
The point is his family, closest friends and a lot of fans came to see him off.
DAM I BET IT WAS A GOOD SERVICE
RIP PIMP C
http://WWW.MY*****E.COM/THAGRINDAHOLC
NUTHIN BUT THAT GHETTO KNOCK
it was funny how they play the theme from hustle and flow before the preacher came up “It hard out here for a pimp”.
Please know that cl***** isn’t in what you wear…it’s how you present yourself. And for ALL of you that have turned this into a debate about what you should and should not wear to a funeral…please just step off. Find someplace else to do that crap. This is about the loss of a legend..REMEMBER THAT
It’s always the correct thing to do, go to a funeral dressed up. In this case why though, Pimp C didn’t dress up, he lived UGK therefore that’s how he’s represented in death……JMO
Never heard of him before this..but RIP
Please know that cl***** isn’t in what you wear…it’s how you present yourself.
that the silliest ***** i have heard today. you cant have one without the other.
Actually dumb ***** you can. Not everyone has nice clothes or money to buy nice clothes…If you carry yourself w/ cl*****, then you present yourself that way. You can have on a t-shirt and jean and still be cl*****y. Clearly you know nothing about it.
And further more…what the hell does it matter??? That’s how that man lived…Do you think he had a problem with it…maybe that’s what he wanted…ever think of that????? Just silly.
maybe it was maybe it wasnt. how would we know, cant ask him now if thats what he wanted. Having cl***** with no money is different than having cl***** with money. I mean if you have millions of dollars and go to funeral drive up in a bentley and step out in a hoody and *****ies, you have money but know cl*****, and vise versa. But if all you have is what you wore than i can understand
“it was funny how they play the theme from hustle and flow before the preacher came up “It hard out here for a pimp”.” WOW…
Anyhoo jjones, thanks for the education…never heard of *****ies. *shrugging* And honestly, before Bossip posted about his death, other than the reference in Jay Z rap, I never heard of Pimp C, UGK, etc.
I’m done, some folks can only do better IF they know better…
LDnDallas: Its Called “Front,Back, and Side to Side” My cousin in the background with his wife, the pic with 8 Ball and MGJ… He is a mortician, and his funeral home had Pimp C’s Body.. RiP Pimp C
yea during the entire service, they plaedy UGK music only, then they play its hard out here for a pimp while the preacher was comming to the stage to give eulogy
Slim thug is ugly period! In Mourning… out of mourning..The Man looks like a special ed monster. JMO!
I can understand the point of some people about dressing, but if Pimp C and his family wanted people to wear UGK shirts and *****ies than WHY do the people on here have such a hard time with it.
Every family buries their family members in their own way, usually the funeral reflects the personality of that person. I have been to a funeral where the person who died loved up tempo jazz music so instead of sad hymnals they played jazz music. I have been to a funeral where the family all wore red, because that was the deceased favorite color and she wanted her family in red.
I don’t see anything wrong with his family wanting people to wear UGK shirts and *****ies to the funeral.
Now if the family requested suits and people wore t-shirts than YES that is disrespectful
Seeing that casket made it all too real… So sad, I know that was a very difficult day for his colleagues, friends ad fans. I like that his mom felt comfortable representing her son’s group by wearing his UGK shirts. Deepest sympathies to them all…
TSimp…THANK YOU!!!!
Pimp C wore a lot of *****ies, that’s why a lot of people had them on including his MOTHER!!!! Let’s not underestimate people’s intelligence or think they’re less than human because of what they wore to the funeral.
Instead of yall sayin’ Rest In Peace Pimp C and movin’ on…you have to let it be known that you had never heard of him before now and pick apart what people wore to the funeral…????
.
.
that what I think is IG-NOR-ANT!!
Oh and since all of you helped pay for the funeral and are directly affected by his death and homegoing services, I understand why you all are disgusted with what his guests and family wore… Shame on them to do what was probably what he would have wanted instead of what Bossip readers would expect to see… I have known people and had conversations where people specifically asked that people do/ wear certain things for their funeral. The death of a young man is whats the sad part of this story is, not what his family wore to the funeral… I’m just thankful for his mom that she had the strength to even get up and be there… My cousin died in Sept. 07~ Thomas Reginald “Reggie” Byrd, he was a comedian frequently on comic view- the family wore “Byrdman” T-shirts to his funeral AS PER HIS MOTHER’S REQUEST!!
Snickers!!! YOur home early!!
Thank you Cuba and Snickers.
Sometimes people are so quick to add their 2 cents about a situation and do not think first.
Cuba Cuba Cuba!!!!
I’m usually on here during the day too!! I was laid back today (’cause it’s cold & raining here in Dallas, you know what the rain does to ya) and just decided to take it easy……
(p.s…that Ike post was off tha chain lastnight!!)

“Sometimes people are so quick to add their 2 cents about a situation and do not think first.”
___________________________________________
you’re soooo right!!……some of these clowns couldn’t name one UGK song (besides Big Pimpin’ or Int. Playas Anthem), that’s why they had to pick out everything they thought was wrong wit these pictures!!
The attire of ALOT of the people doesn’t bother me that much (You can’t buy Cl*****/Tact/Style)…
But the fact that THEY had to pat people down and metal detectors, etc. is kinda disturbing!!!
That’s probably WHY so many other Hip-Hop stars didn’t attend ( Most notably Snoop and Jay-Z )
Oh, and Letoya CAN Definitely Get This !!!
Just Sit And Be Pretty
“it was funny how they play the theme from hustle and flow before the preacher came up “It hard out here for a pimp”.” WOW…
Anyhoo jjones, thanks for the education…never heard of *****ies. *shrugging* And honestly, before Bossip posted about his death, other than the reference in Jay Z rap, I never heard of Pimp C, UGK, etc.
I’m done, some folks can only do better IF they know better…
^^^^^^^^^MOTHER JEFFERSON…GO TO BED!!!!
Obviously, you are trying to comment on another generation…Don’t know UGK??..Never heard of *****ies??..Yet you can judge???…You are LOST! That’s the problem with our elders, still tryin’ to ride the Party Train….Read about Pimp C..his father’s jazz background..Pimp appreciated music and understood the nuances of the genres…but blended them beautifully…he was a musically accomplished person..and UGK laid the foundation for Southern Rap for all those who don’t know!! I’m a GA Peach straight from ATL and Pimp C is a LEGEND..never mind what he said in the past…He could do that ish!! Speaking of ATL,very disappointing..they should have been out in FORCE>>esp Outkast?!? RIP PIMP C
ATL LOOOVES YOU!!
First of all……
“^^^^^^^^^MOTHER JEFFERSON…GO TO BED!!!!”

I know one of the reasons they were patting people down is because cell phones, cameras and any kind of recording device was strictly PROHIBITED!!!!
They didn’t want anyone taking pictures and I can understand that. There are a lot of sick people (tabloids) in this world that probably would have paid top dollar for a picture of him in his casket…why do you think all of the photographers were…OUTSIDE????
.
.
people are always looking for ways to come up!! prime example…look what Donda West’s hairstylist did to her……………..
Cosign @ AntLee
Damn, they couldnt dress up for the man’s funeral ?
Makes it hard for hip hop to gain more respect. And actuallly black people as a whole. But I digress.
that bishop character needs to be taken out back and shot!! what a *****ing minstrel side show freak.
First of all, we’re all entitled to our opinions and I still stand by mine. WTH, so what I don’t know Pimp C, UGK or whatever…how do we say this…umm, different “frames of reference”.
And Cuba, your sarcasm isn’t lost on me. Isn’t it amazing how ALL of us at some point will offer our POV on issues, people, situations, etc. that Bossip posts without it having any direct correlation to our lives. Give me a break, if you disagree with me, fine, you too are entitled to your opinion…doesn’t it make it any more valid than mine? I think not.
OMG, “Mother Jefferson” hilarious, AND WHAT,is that the best you got? You should try stand up, what a comedian, you’d put Dave Chappelle to shame…you so funny!!
LOL @ snickers…and since when is someone a clown because they can’t pick out one UGK song? How dumb does that sound? Wow, if my intellect and success in life was dependent on my knowlege of hip hop lyrics/groups, etc…then I’m glad I stayed my ***** in school, graduated college and attained higher goals and aspirations.
Oh here she goes again! Rest in peace Pimp C. Just wanted to post my respects to you quickly, I am backstage preparing to give a speech at a children’s fundraiser in Jersey City
damn we really struck a nerve wit you huh?? the guilty ones always speak first……FUN-NEE!!
.
.
*****ody said your intellect and success was based on knowing hip hop lyrics sweetie, I just think it’s funny how a lot of people claim they didn’t know who he was, but chose to leave a comment telling us about it! That’s just like me walking into Chanel telling a salesperson “Oh, I’ve never heard of yall” and walking back out……what tha hell?? you coulda kept that to yourself!!!!
.
and furthermore…that was MY opinion, I could care less if you agree with me, but I see it clearly matters to you……like you said we’re all entitled to our own opinions……right??
p.s. (I’m not a huge fan of internet arguments)sooo……
Have a good evening!
@snickers… Good Looking out because that never crossed my mind (Forgot about the S*****Bags!!!)
no problem ELove!!
and @snickers…
What’s up with ALL THESE “Ole ***** in da booty ***** *****s” not knowing who UGK-Pimp C is???
I just had to say that (Pimp C. was Too Funny with that !!!)
ELove
you STOOPID!!!!
.
but don’t say that too loud…we might get another sermon from Dean “Big Sister ALMIGH-TY”!!!! don’t wanna go rustlin’ her feathers again!!
that “young pimp c fan” is Pimp C’s youngest son Dahcorey Butler… “young pimp c fan” my ***** thats his son…
**RIP PIMP C**
…….THEY SOLD OUT CLUBS B4 “BIG PIMPIN”
When did it become ok to wear a f*cking doo rag to a funeral? People will put on a suit or a nice, pressed outfit to go to a club, but look like ***** when they go to church or someone’s funeral.
I just feel a little strange that someone is keeping on saying some celebrits joined the website seekingsugarto date sexy and beautiful woman.. Did you notice that? absolutely a spammer!

^^^^JustSit, my post was not in response to yours~ AT ALL. I was pretty busy so I didnt have time to read that far down before I made my own comment. I was responding to the posts from earlier in the day when I decided to skip ahead and comment. I just now read your post from earlier only b/c of what you said to me here~ I was trying to figure out where you were coming from. I guess my sarcasm wasn’t lost on you, but you were reaching a bit cause it had nothing to do with you….
This thread had me hollerin’ eventho I arrived at the party late. Very sad, a young, talented man. Cosign with whoever said that it is easy to die of natural causes today without somethin’ being suspect. It is the food today — too much sugar and chemicals and all.
Did they find out whut dope he od on, heh, heh
I pray for his family. And I hope that he knew The Lord,God.
Everyone, please pray for the *****s in these photos, and I do mean *****s.
Who the ***** wears do rags to a funeral? Pretend that you have some cl*****.
LeToya, you’re my girl and a bag of pearls, but you look pregnant. Other than that, you’re dressed appropriately, from what I can tell, so you get a p*****.
(Not so) Slim Thug – if you have “about a million worth of cars and a $1 million house” then *****, you have enough money to buy a suit. I know broke people who would show up at a funeral dressed more appropriately than those in attendance at Pimp C’s funeral.
Y’all already know how I feel about Mr. Green And Gold aka Mold and Old.
Chamillionaire, you look less like a millionaire and more like a penny waiting for change. ***** the hip hop police. The fashion police came to arrest you for that atrocity atop your dome.
It’s so sad that *****s who claim to have money don’t have the good sense or the cl***** to know that suits, ties, dress shirts, etc. are what a person wears to pay their last respects to someone. SMMFH
I hate funerals.
AntLee, I concur. I know these fools own suits. Maybe that’s why Jay didn’t go. Maybe he didn’t want to appear over dressed. Ish like this is why I’m going to be cremated. And what’s up with the doo-rags? SMH.
And another thing, say what you will about the foolishness that is Bishop Don Magic Juan….at least he wore a suit!
No African American home should be without the book called, WHAT MAKES THE GREAT GREAT, by Black writer, Dennis P. Kimbro, Ph.D. it will forever change your way of thinking about your place in this country. Pick up a copy this holiday for yourself and a friend and you’ll see what I mean. Love yall.
Don Juan’s coonery is unrivaled. Pimp C, and anyone for that matter, deserves a dignified funeral.
YOU’LL WANT TO KNOW WHAT’S REALLY SAD ABOUT ALL OF THIS. WE JUST BURIED A LEGEND(A HARD BLOW FOR SOUTHERN HIP HOP/ RAP) AND THE ONLY THING PEOPLE SEEM TO THINK ABOUT IS WHO SHOWED UP AND WHO DIDN’T SHOW UP TO THE SERVICES, WHO WORE A SUIT AND WHO DIDN’T. MAAAN!!!! COULD YOU ALL SHOW OUR BROTHER PIMP C. SOME RESPECT!!!!!
I could care less what was said on his blog, nor who put it on there.. People should have enough common sense and respect to show up to a funeral in a way that doesn’t mimmick this mans art, performance, or personality..
I guess some folks raise their kids to dress and act like this… The rest of us raise our kids to know that there’s a time and place for everything.. These negroes were all about themselves the day of that funeral.. They weren’t showing any type of respect at all… The only one I give a dress code p***** to is his mother.. She can grieve in any way that she feels as a parent… The rest of those fools with the doo rags/caps, jeans, and chains and stuff.. They should look at these pics and re-think the difference between being an artist and a human being.. There’s enough time in the day for them to be both…
80’s Lady,
I was thinkin the same damn thing… Minus the cheap looking women he brought with him and arriving late, Don Juan did show up wearing a suit…
The pic of Mike Jones pretty much summed up how this sorry group of adults should be percieved… A damn hoodie with little guns hangin off the hood ties, and that big, stupid-***** medallion..
These negroes look like they rolled out of bed headin to the weed spot… and there just happened to be a funeral on the same block they were headin to..
Just sad…
Ever look at old Civil Rights footage and notice how nice our people were dressed during all the hell they had to fight through??
Suits and hats, dresses and purses, and their hair was always done…
and these fools promote and celebrate looking like grimey bums
I dont care what *****ody say UGK still here no matta what i kno bun b hurtn but my prayers are with yall its too much morning rite now now all the news is going to be on Pimp C and its not even going to finish being on west i hope well for everyone
I dont care what *****ody say UGK still here no matta what i kno bun b hurtn but my prayers are with yall its too much morning rite now! now all the news is going to be on Pimp C and its not even going to finish being on west i hope well for everyone. R.I.P. PIMP C
Pimp C I will miss him but for some reason folks just don’t get dress for a funeral anymore hell I went to one just recently and I wore some sandles and a skirt and hell I was over dressed people had on shorts and t shirts saying RIP Lil Wood what the hell!!!!!
AT LEAST THEY CAME AND GAVE THERE LAST RESPECTS A FUNERAL AIN’T NO FASHION SHOW.
I’m so sorry , it went from free to rest in peace pimp c.U IN A BETTER PLACE NOW!
Everybody look at the dead beat dad behind slim thug like he’s something important. He can show up for a real man funeral but cant take care of his kids.
I hate that god took ssomeone real as Pimp C away from us but it was his tyme and never question gods and his works just be blessed
