funny thing is that Pimp C dragged his feet to make the track


:mjlol:


Right from the start, Pimp hated the beat (called it DooDoo). Dude also didn't really fukk Hov like that and He felt like UGK was selling out.

It took everybody begging from his label to bun, to his momma and his engineer to finally convince him to do the song.

Pimp being Pimp only recorded 8 bars and he wrote his verse as a sly joke.

When it came time to do the video,

Pimp was afraid of flying so he didn't make it out to the carnival shoot with Bun and Jay.

instead, he borrowed his homeboys rare Mercedes and drove it down to Miami for a separate shoot. Down in Miami he demanded to be in the same hotel Jay Z stayed At.

When it was time to film his scene, he demanded that "his" mercedes be in it and He also demanded a mink coat. (Everybody was looking at him crazy cause it was 90+ degrees out).He put up with it anyway.

He also demanded to film exclusively with the baddest video ho on the shoot. The one everybody was trying to fukk (which bugged Hov cause it was his video)

Well, Pimp filmed the scene. Then he and the video ho immediately disappeared into his trailer. (which really bugged hov)

:mjlol:

Rare collab that benefits both. It Broke UGK outside the south. It helped push JayZ down south. Believe it or not, Money ain't a thang and Big Pimping were probably the most played JZ songs during those periods. They played those in shake joints, the ultimate Litmus test in the A.
