Stream Pimp C’s Posthumous Long Live the Pimp; Featuring Bun B, Nas, Juicy J, & More

9 years ago view-show 553,311
When Port Arthur, Texas rapper Pimp C passed away in 2007, he left behind a legacy spanning over two decades. During his time in UGK, Pimp rapped and produced some of the group's most memorable songs; from their watershed 1996 album Ridin' Dirty to "International Players Anthem (I Choose You)" in 2007 -- the year of his untimely death -- his music will certainly live on forever. All things considered, it's only right for a posthumous Pimp album to ultimately manifest today. “This album is the culmination of years of work from not just me, but also the amazing artists and producers who contributed to make it happen,” his widow Chinara Butler says of Long Live the Pimp. “It combines several of the ideas and projects my husband began before his untimely passing. We hope the Trill fans enjoy it.” And with guests that include Bun B, Nas, T.I., Juicy J, A$AP Rocky, Slim Thug, Ty Dolla $ign, and many more, Long Live the Pimp is a 17-track long effort that will not only keep long time fans of Pimp C (and UGK) satisfied but give new listeners a taste of what made him so special to the rap game. Stream Pimp C's posthumous Long Live the Pimp after the jump.

9 years ago view-show 263,736

While Drake and Meek Mill continue their beef, Waka Flocka Flame has decidedly used their "R.I.C.O." collaboration for a freestyle of his own. Because, like, I thought this was about rap? This is actually kinda refreshing from Waka, too -- he's been a little quiet as of late. Check out his "R.I.C.O." freestyle after the jump.

Video: Waka Flocka Flame – “Game On” feat. Good Charlotte

9 years ago view-show 2,206,809
Apparently Waka Flocka Flame released a song out with Good Charlotte. In case you don’t know who Good Charlotte is, they’re a pop-punk band from the early 2000s. They had songs like “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” go gold in 2002 – further revealing my old age. They’ve pretty much been on hiatus since 2011 and haven’t recorded a new album since 2010. How do I know this? Because I’ve used my Googles. Anyway, this song is for that new Pixels film coming out later this month. Now, the tandem of Waka Flocka, a rapper who is basically losing more and more of his street cred as I type this thing out, and a seemingly irrelevant early 2000s pop group have record a music video for this "Game On" track. Honestly, when I heard this track back last month I was baffled but now, hearing it over again -- along with an equally nauseating video -- I'm convinced this is the worst thing to happen to rap in 2015 thus far. But you be the judge. Check out "Game On" after the jump.
