It’s been two years since UGK’s Pimp C died, so I’m bringing back this interview we did with Bun B. (Pimp C. R.I.P.)

Houston MC Bun B came by the offices of The Urban Daily and graciously opened up to us about a variety of topics (click here for his reaction to the trade of NBA player Rafer Alston from The Houston Rockets to The Orlando Magic).  With Solange Knowles trippin on Nyquil we had to ask him about the next and  last UGK album, 4 Life (in stores now!), his late partner Pimp C, how he handled the topic of syrup sipping in the music and why he thinks the Internet is the Anti-Christ.

    Ok here it goes, Real men do what they want fake men do what they can! To everyone that judges Bun and Pimp for the life style they live think back to that so called friend that you let take things one step too far and you let s**t ride any way! A mans going to be a man and the only thing you can do is stand by him when he makes his mistakes, thats part of being a man . Not being on some artifical s**t and speaking down on your partner when the chips are not in his favor. So Bun you are the real Def. of a REAL MAN. Rep your man till ya’ll meet in the sky , never forget the legs you stand on can be ripped out from underneath you if you forget how you made it this far, Love the ones that show love for the cause and if there are anyone hating on the south come see me in in ten a key and we’ll work it out on some real hot lead type s**t!! We showed ya’ll love when you didn’t want to reconize the south in this rap thang but where you hoes come fo the snow!! (Tony that is). So take a nap or get the f**k knocked out!!!!!!!!!

    U.G.K is legends in the south. I been listening to these cats every since 2hard 2swallow. I think Pimp C was murdered also cause he always spoke has mind. By me being from Georgia, I will tell you, evrything he said about Atlanta is true. He said he was gonna bring all these fake dl rappers, and all of a sudden he dead. Notice how everybody end up dead when they speak the truth.

    Bun B is deep and he knows it’s a little more to the story than Pimp C dying from syrup I think it was the syrup right around that time when that happened I was doing work out of town for a corporate job and the hotel I was stayin in creepy things started happening who knows he prolly was visited by a spirit or hag brought on by someone to get him weird things happen in hotels. As far as the internet it is the anti christ it can get you in a lot of trouble.

    R.I.P. Pimp C aka Chad Butler. “I’m a country ass nigga, I f*cks wit ya wife/ If ya b*tch come around me, put some d*ck in her life.” Man, I miss The Pimp. He never claimed to be the most lyrically inclined person but he ALWAYS kept it trill. Oh yeah, am I the only one tired of this Illuminati sh*t? Maybe its just me but niggas always watch something on youtube and treat it like its the word of God. SMH

    I didn’t really read any of yall’s comments, but I do know he got killed by those entertainers that are apart of the secret society crap bcuz he was talking about all those rap thugs that were perpin’ like they’re hard. But what was really hard was the dicks that they were slobbing on and taking up the butt-hole. He knew that what the industry was having them do wasn’t right and he began speaking out against it. RIP Pimp C.
