pretty funny

usually burt is just an idiot as opposed to outright offensive

early burt

2 years

wow

:-(

did he do much production work aside from ugk/solo stuff?

TAKE THAT MONKEY SHIT OFF YOU EMBARASSING US

And then when I got on my knees that night to pray
I asked God why he let these killas live and take my homeboy's son away
Man if you got kids show em you love em cuz God jus might call em home
Cuz one day you here but baby the next day you gone

yeah, "I asked God why he let these killas live and take my homeboy's son away" gets me every time. amazing, amazing verse.

I love almost everything UGK has ever released but that verse, and that song ultimately elevate Ridin' Dirty over the rest.

yeah, it's powerful stuff.

that "MURDER" sample right after this somber track is always so jarring!

ridin dirty miiiiiight be my fave as well but I always go back-and-forth between it and super tight. basically, the one I happen to be listening to is my fave.

<3 Super Tight too. the double album also is in close competition.

every verse is total A game stuff on "one day" though. even 3-2 and I'm not even really sure who that dude is.

double album is great but I prefer the way bun sounds on the earlier records. also, no jazze pha.

"quit hatin' the south" is the shit.

you reap what you sew. FUCK YOU IN YA PUSSY.

pimp c is just unhinged on the double. love it.

what's the deal with the new Pimp C posthumous album. anybody heard anything off of it? gonna pick it up today.

It's streaming here:

From my one cursory listen, it's not very good. Needless to say, Drake makes an appearance.

fukkin hate that song with drake.

album is solid. the Drake song is by far the worst but the rest is pretty vintage Pimp C with guests he usually guested with while he was alive. even the production was very in line with what he mighta done if he himself produced it.

Sounds too much like a posthumous album, rapping doesn't fit with beats.

"even the production was very in line with what he mighta done if he himself produced it."

Huh ? not really.

you sure you heard the right album? the latter point I can see questioning, but I didn't see any of the former at all

as far as the production other than a few 'clubby synthy' tracks, a lot of it was some of that Texas soul'n'funk that he liked.

the drake track, "since the 90's", "midnight", "hit the parkig lot", "colors" & even "massacre" are not really close to pimp's production style. That's half of the songs.

they're not note perfect but they're not that off in left field, some of them sound like what the guest producers did on the Underground Kingz album. they fit his style to me, *shrug*, it's not like the case of Bun B imo

RIP
