Suga Free's image, likeness and story was depicted in this movie and the song went on to win an Oscar . . Suga Free should've sued the way Riff Raff did over Spring Breakers . . would've at least got publicity off of it

That was Skinny Pimp, DJ Squeeky (Anthony Anderson) and J-Mac (the white boy) likeness and story they were "loosely" using in that movie...as Terrance Howard's character and "Skinny Blac"...and he DID sue a few years ago...don't know if it was settled out of court, tossed out or whatever though.

Damn . .I didn't know that, thanks for sharing. This kind of reminds me of James Franco saying it wasn't Riff Raff but actually another rapper from Florida who looks the same

that brother suga free is one of a kind :wow:



DJ Quik is performing in Santa Ana tomorrow, shows sold out but I was hoping to see him after he made a surprise appearance at Suga Free's new years show. I would like to see him and DJ Quik get together for a full-length album, throw some Katt Williams cameos in there and set out to make a blockbuster release

Terrance Howard & Ludacris characters was "loosely" based on Skinny Pimp...especially Terrance Howard's character...it's obvious to anybody familiar with Skinny's come up...and the other characters like Anthony Anderson (DJ Squeeky) and that skinny white boy (J-Mac) played dudes that played an integral part in the beginning stages of Skinny's career...DJ Squeeky (and DJ Zirk) were the 1st dudes to take Skinny off the hoe track and put him in the studio...that white boy who was the engineer for Anthony Anderson's character played the same role as J-Mac (a funny lookin lil whiteboy) did to DJ Squeeky... as his engineer.
