  • Who cares if Bun B is not from H-Town, he's from Port Arthur, close enough to Houston, Anyway he represents That STAR to the fullest, Ridin Dirty and Dirty Money r 2 of the best LPs released and never given it's props, hopefully wit Trill he will rise to the next LEVEL. Nothin but Love to the pioneers of this Soutnern Conference, along with S.U.C and the Geto Boys. Rep That Star 4ever.

  • I think it was for parole violation or something like that. Failed to appear in court(that kinda thing). What the original charge was, I dunno. But, word is he's getting out in December and UGK is going to the Roc. Its just a rumor for now though.

  • Pimp C in jail cause he brought a gun in sharpstown shoppin mall cause he said niggas was tryin' to kill him.

  • October 20, 2005 5:05 PM
  • MIKE,SW,HTOWN says...
  • NAHHH... IT WAS ASSAULT... TRUTH IS (OR SO SAYS UGK) THAT IT IS A CASE OF FALSE IDENTITY.. OR IDENTETY.. S.U.C. TO THE FULLEST....

  • mike you're wrong if you got the underground version of the sweet jones album (the one with a cartoon picture of him behind bars on the cover) he told exactly what happened. assault is what he was on probation for and he violated when he brought that gun in the mall. you can get that cd from cd universe. and pimp c himself tells you what happened on the inside of the cover.

  • October 20, 2005 6:34 PM
  • G says...
  • bun trash without C. the beats wack and bun need to quit sayin' PA in his songs cause he ain't neva did shit for PA ,but give shout outs and he ain't neva out here. he puttin out the middlefingaz and them niggas from h-town not PA. he just say PA for some type of street cred ,but bun ain't no g, he neva was. bun can't carry a whole album. he's only good for cameos. he could've at least let N.O. Joe do the beats since he couldn't have C. this album sound like some shit mike jones would rap to, not ugk. this shows that C is the heart of the group and bun is just his sidekick. if bun stop suckin' them houston niggas dicks, he could rep PA like he supposed to. bun been rappin 13 years and he still talkin' bout how he posted up on da block grindin'. dat shit gettin old. i promise, come to PA not one nigga know bun as a hustla, niggas know him as a rapper.

  • On the real, BUN B is OFF THE COAT RACK. Lyrically, none of these new cats can run wit him, he's a pioneer in the game. If his STUPID AZZ LABELS had any since, they would've promoted the SHIT out of their joints and people from around the country wouldn't think only the GETO BOYS was holdin down the derty derty for so long.

    It's about MF time BUN (UGK & Pimp C) get the NATIONAL props they deserve.

  • October 21, 2005 1:43 PM
  • G says...
  • E.RANDLE, yeah i'm from PA. but you don't know shit ugk. ugk was neva meant to be mainstream, that's why they don't have a bunch of videos. it wasn't cause the label was always trippin', it's what they wanted. and throughout the years it worked, they made it without videos, strictly being underground. that's why they're called the underground kingz, dumbfuck. think about it, how are you goin' to be Underground Kingz if you are mainstream or pop and have videos everywhere. that's why C didn't wanna do big pimpin' cause he thought if they did that song or video they would be goin pop. so shut up dickface.

  • G,
    Whoever the phuck you are ... you sure don't know ISH about Bun, Chad, or UGK (and you really need to shut the phuc up). If you really knew what was up, you'd know that Bun & Chad gave opportunities to more people than you ever could think of- not to mention that the ENTIRE South owes them(as well as Geto Boyz) a debt of gratitude for paving the way for Southern acts to even get RESPECT on a NATIONAL and INTERNATIONAL level. There wouldn't BE any Master P's, David Banner's, Lil KeKe's, TI's, Goodie Mob's, Outkast's, or any of you whining ass wannabees- if it were not for UGK. I don't care if you claim to be from PAT or not- because you are either smokin crack, too young to know any damn better, or JUST THAT STUPID.
    You obviously also don't know anything about the industry- NO ONE signs a deal to be promoted with no videos, no P.O.P., no radio drops, spins or BUDGET. Jive Records did not support the success nor position UGK to succeed in any way, shape, form or fashion and for a limp dick like you to come along a talk ish because you're salty that Bun & Chad aren't handing out welfare deals (like the one you obviously need) to CRABS like YOU and now your feelings are hurt is F'd up. NEGRO PLEASE! STOP SUCKING THAT SIMILAC! GET OFF THE TIT! B4 UGK there wasn't ANYBODY BUT THE GETO BOYZ and from them grew a GENERATION of southern artists that before THEM couldn't catch a piss in a rainstorm. SO... until you have knowledge & experience to support your asinine ramblings- SHUT THE PHUCC UP.

  • October 24, 2005 12:08 PM
  • G says...
  • BMT2ATL, shut da fuck. you said all dat and ain't say shit. da south would've blew up anyway. da south buys the most cd's, so it was only a matter of time before somebody in da south capitalized off that. ugk ain't shit compared to outkast. ugk ain't neva had 1 platinum album, outkast legends forreal. outkast sold 10 mill on their last album. all ugk albums together probably ain't sold 2 mill. lil niggas like mike jones, paul wall, lil flip, and slim thug sell mo than ugk. and dem lil niggas makin mo money than ugk eva had. but not 1 of them lil niggas sold mo than scarface or has mo money than face. face holds his position like a legend supposed to. and them lil niggas includin master p have blew up usin' ugk and left ugk behind, makin millions. cash money used bun in their early days and now they worth 100 million. what is ugk worth? 13 years in da game and them niggas ain't got a million dollas. niggas like slim thug pushin a rolls on his first album. PA don't want shit from ugk cause we know they broke now and they can barely help themselves. we just don't wanna hear them ho's sayin' PA no mo. this is the 3rd ugk product that didn't match up to the hype: dirty money, sweet jones, and now trill. what made ridin' dirty tight is the production. and they were cool with their deal. they could've left jive ,but they chose to stay, renegociate, get a lil up front money and still deal wit jive's bullshit cause dem niggas some ho's. and friend of mind introduced them to wendy day, the person who renegociated their deal with jive. i promise lil bitch ass nigga who don't know mo than me bout this or the industry. only state facts and can't nobody suck ugk dick like you.

  • I'm back to clear things up. Pimp C is in jail for violating his probation..He's been on lock since Jan28 2001. He was caught in a mall carrying a gun too. And Bun-B is not from Houston, Pimp C ( Real name Chad Butler) and Bun B ( Real name Bernard Freeman) are from Port Arthur, Texas...a city 0f 70,000 on the border of Louisianna in Southeast Texas..also known as The Golden Triangle..They call Houston their second home because they were always kicking it there...Houston and P.A. are right in the thick of things right now...H-Town takeover has already begun...Bun-B isn't just reppin for P.A. or Houston..He's doing it for the south period..How do I know so much? Well, I'm from Port Arthur and U.G.K. are legends there. Talk bad about them in my city and you might not be able to talk anymore.4-REAL. Now onto rating the album..I Give it 4 and a half Mics....XXL....Fuck the Source anyway..Right! Southern classic without doubt.. Now for the informed people out there...any body hating on U.G.K. must not know their track record, doesn't know how Bun-B smashes everybody on their own albums, or is just born a hater. Pimp C produced most of their old songs and sang the hooks.. Free Pimp C by the way..Free my brother Arson and my brother L.T. I'm bout to stop asking for their freedom and break the fucking prison wall down....Fuck the county....Nicca fuck the state....Nicca fuck the Feds....Open up the GATES!!!!!.I'm out y'all.

  • BMT2ATL says...
  • G,

    You are so amusing... Your response gave me so many chuckles- it was enough for an aerobic workout. So, thanks for saving me a trip to the gym.

    But back to your infantile rantings and ravings...

    It is OBVIOUS that you are too young (or STUPID)to remember the reality of what it was like for the South in the early to mid nineties. You were either West Coast, East Coast or Luke. ANYTHING done down south was 'booty' music, and did not get any promo, respect, or airplay nationally, regionally, and BARELY any locally.

    Then came the Geto Boys and (shortly thereafter) UGK. The Geto Boys couldn't even keep their P&D deals, much less get airplay. But they perservered, succeeded, fell apart, and the last man standing is Face. NONE of the rest of the GB is packing major stacks BUT him.

    But, when UGK grinded & served up The Southern Way they created the STANDARD for Southern acts to follow. "Do it indy, as long as you can- then PARTNER with the label to expand your opportunities." But THEY learned it the HARD WAY, and taught others from their own experience.

    To say that Outkast, Goodie Mob, Pastor Troy, Mike Jones, Paul Wall, Slimm Thug, Flip and the rest of them would have still made the type of money that they are making now without a UGK is bullshit. They have ALL learned from the struggle and example of UGK.

    If money is what makes you a legend, then a MAJORITY of the "legends" since black music stopped being called 'race music' are NOT legends. They were robbed of their legacy by idiots like you who believe that the physical representation of wealth and affluence (instead of INFLUENCE) is the key to immortality.

    But, son you're wrong... the INFLUENCE of UGK will even live longer than their music (which is infinite). Their music is just an invitation to explore the impact these two men have had on not just a nation, but the world.

    Without UGK, there would not have been a No Limit, Cash Money, Swisha House, Ice Age, Purple Ribbon, BME, Grand Hustle, DTP, etc. Because before THEM there was NO Southern HipHop Market. PERIOD. It was ONLY East or West, and to be from down South wasn't happening.

    UGK(& the GB) CREATED the Southern market. No if's, and's, or but's about it. There was NO interest in signing Southern acts until they came along. When the bidding war to sign UGK began, the interest in THEM created the need for other labels to have their own Southern acts.

    So, if you are still wondering what that means- go back and read it again. And hopefully, with your understanding- you shall gain wisdom.

    And since you know SOOOOOOO much about about record labels, structuring deals, album positioning, promo tours, distribution schedules, and label priority strategies...

    What labels WITH distribution have you held any position of authority? (and no that does not include Street Team Rep...)

    What recording and production facilities have you owned & operated? (and nope- you can't include your copy of Fruity Loops...)

    What artists have you worked with personally that your input has directly affected the growth and success of their career?

    Well, to all of these questions I've asked you- I have earned those stripes and then some- so your barber shop blunt cipher comments from the peanut gallery are just you sippin on your cup of haterade.

    - Outkast has ALWAYS had FULL label support & a major promotions budget. So comparing their career to UGK's, is useless. It takes more than a hot album to make a hit or sell a record. (But, oops I forgot... you are the industry expert right!? YOU know that already)

    - Every Album UGK has done has at least gone GOLD with NO PROMOTION & Label Support, not mention Pocket Full of Stones going Platinum, & UGK being nominated for a Grammy for Big Pimpin (which they smoked!!) Albums haven't sold without promotion like that since Pink Floyd's The Wall. (But I bet you don't even know who or what that is...)

    - NEGRO PLEASE! Dirty Money was TIGHT. Let Me See It, Pimpin Ain't No Illusion, Take It Off, Wood Wheel, Like A Pimp... Are CLASSICS. Enough Said.

    - Sweet Jones was put together by Rap-A-Lot with old vocals Chad had done prior to being locked down. He's not even satisfied with it, so why would you be?

    FREE PIMP C!

    - Trill is a classic, but YOU can't tell- because all that haterade you been sippin got you twisted.

    SO WHEN YOU STOP FEELING ALL HURT & JEALOUS THAT YOU WILL NEVER SHINE LIKE THEM, BE LIKE THEM, OR ACHIEVE LIKE THEM- ADMIT THAT YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW BUN AND REALIZE THAT YOUR HATIN' DON'T STOP OR CHANGE SHIT.

  • O.K. Skeeter Limp Dick...

    Now that we've heard your 'background' and know the basis for your 'hate'... I get what your problem is.

    Your problem is that you are an unfulfilled producer (scratch that- Beat Maker) with a hard-on for Bun & Chad because they did not make your Cinderfella dreams come true and whisk you away from your miserable plebian existence of mediocrity. (and even IF you are talented, your attitude will keep you from going too far...)

    You ask about what I have done, and I am more than happy to tell you. I have worked for several major labels (ie.-PGD, Universal, CGI, DreamWorks, etc) in artist development, owned a major recording & production facility in Atlanta comparable to DARP, Patchwerk or Treesounds (but you probably don't know who they are), brokered deals for singles, albums, and movies domestically and internationally. I have contributed to the success of artists such as Jay-Z, Method Man, Redman, DMX, Foxy Brown, George Clinton, Ghetto Mafia, India Arie, P.A., Dietrick Haddon, Vickie Winans, Portishead, HOB, and too many others to count.

    I have grinded the street team hustle, the radio promo hustle, club & event promoter hustle, and in my spare time I show love for the kids on the block in the struggle.

    Nigga, I been on my grind like white on rice while you been fillin up on haterade (and unlike YOU, I DO have a reputation to protect).

    and BITCH PLEASE! UGK is the Frankie Beverly & Maze of Southern HipHop... as long as they WANT a Career, they will have one. (Too bad we can't say the same for you... Mr. Co-Producer)

    and (last) YES I AM... and NOT afraid to admit it. I AM a fan of UGK. I am proud of Bun & Chad and all they have done with their lives. Like everyone they have had their ups & downs... but they have held it down for 13 YEARS and the best is yet to come. I admire the grace & dignity that have shown throughout their struggles- the f'd up management, shady people, the baby mamma drama, cases, and (not to mention) the label stress... Most people would have given up LONG TIME AGO.

    I've been in the game 12 years and NO ONE in this business is MORE respected & revered by their peers than UGK. If you consider Jay-z the G.O.A.T.- even HIS ass gives respect to UGK as their due and lists THEM as one of his all time favorite artists.

    Just stop the hate.

  • BMT2ATL, i've neva asked C or Bun for help. eventhough they both have put money in my pockets cause they some dopeheads. i've been gettin money, they're part of the reason i chose to hustle cause i saw i broke they were as rappers and i thought what's da use in being famous if you don't have da paper to match. i went to C house plenty of times on san jac and it's a small ass house, but he had supertight on da self and everybody thought he was doin' it big and they was broke. i would much rather be a rich nobody than the most famous broke ass nigga. you're a street team promoter and that's it. bitch you don't know jay-z you an imaginary nigga you don't own a label you just filled out the paper work at the courthouse. anybody can make up a resume. there is no way to prove any of that bullshit about da things you did or people you know. and if you done so much fuckboy, niggas in BMT need yo help forreal cause ain't shit eva came outta there. dats how i know you ain't cause ain't no nigga doin' it big outta BMT in da rap game, neva. so shut up fake bitch, fake ass wannabe ceo, you ain't done shit, just talkin shit like a bitch. you don't have a rep you a bitch. at best you were probably an intern,. what's da name of you studio?lol! nigga you ain't done shit.

  • G,
    DAAAAAMMMMMMN YOU ARE DUMB!

    Not only can you not read, you are a prime example of what is wrong with striving ass underachievers in America. You want tall $tack$ & enough shine to make you feel good about yourself- but you are not willing to do something with your life other than run from the cops.

    The drug game is a means to an end, NOT a lifetime occupation. The point is to get your stack and make it multiply clean- like the Kennedys, Rockefellers, Rothschilds, Biltmores, etc. But, obviously you missed that day at hustle school...

    You stupidly admit that you would much rather sell drugs than be 'a famous broke ass' but it takes more than a block connect to do what they do... So I feel sorry for you- your ass'll end up in Stiles/Beeville/or Darrington sooner or later.

    and BTW- I get my respect from my PEERS who've seen my grind- so I don't need to justify my experience (bcz those that know KNOW, and if you don't... it wasnt 4 U) and won't further entertain you & your triflin' ass ways.

    Thanks for the chuckles and God Bless.

  • u say what you want bout bun-b but my personal opinion is not that bun is the jay-z of the south, but that jay is the bun up north. lyrically the man got something. i agree that trill wasn't his best work. put it like this, bun get 8.5 out of ten. i say that cuz bun at that level. i expect more. his scale aint flip or slim or even keke, he on somethin else. you can't even compare. look at jay verse on bun albun, it was grade a trash, but that don't mean jay aint tight (and i don't like the dude). i've met nobody, and i mean nobody that has been perfect forever and everybody got skeletons in their closet. the only thing that ever bothered me bout bun was that he aint from the h. i'm from san antonio and you here niggas all the time screaming the h and can't even pronounce it. rep where you from. you from amarillo rep that shit even if you the only nigga out there. 20

Did anyone see the "Diary of Jay-Z" on MTV, you know the episode where Jay calls U.G.K. one of his favorite artists of all time, riding around banging "Wood Wheel" in his Benz? That's what I'm talking BOUT!...I'm from the same hoods they are from and everyone I know in Port Arthur have nothing but respect for U.G.K. They are GODS in PA. And his new album "TRILL" is a classic even without Pimp C. ANd for those who are thinking Pimp C is getting released in December 05, he's not. It's a parole hearing which means he can get denied parole and be in the Terrell Unit even longer. Let's pray 4 my nigga y'all. Come Home Pimp!

C on lock, i guess you say he got what he deserved, huh. but you gone be da first bitch tryin to make money off him when he get out.

  • October 26, 2005 9:31 PM
  • BMT2ATL says...
  • At first I wasn't going to respond to your stupid ass, G. But once again, I've got to give it to you...

    #1- So-the-phuck-what that you 'own' a 6-figure house... Anybody with a down payment and a credit score above 500 can get a $ 100k house... (Not to mention- when the feds serve your ass, you won't be owning shit but your name, el Stupido...) ** But I will congratulate you on the accomplishment of being a homeowner... It's a start **

    #2- I never took a shot at anybody on lock. Nigga I'm Black and in America- I got fam on lock that may NEVER see the light of day... So WTF!? WE get locked up for 30 years just for stealing a grape from the produce section...

    So, I do NOT disparage the people who are already there. They may not have had or realized they had any options. They need all the love and support they can get because NOW (if they don't have their own business or career to return to when THEY get out) they are phucked. Not because they were on lock, but because the system LIMITS THEIR OPTIONS.

    #3- and if you don't understand that Karl Rove's, Martha Stewart's, or Tom Delay's reality is nowhere NEAR the same of an equally wealthy Black person in America (much less a Black Man's experience) YOU NEED HELP.

    In the court system, and in the eyes of 'middle America'- the Black Man is a fatherless, uneducated, drug slangin, blunt smokin, HipHop listenin, welfare receivin, gang bangin BEAST who has 10 Baby Mamas (and twice as many children that he doesn't take care of) and doesn't even know his own mama too well because she's a crackhead hooker strung out on *youfillintheblank* and strollin the track for 'daddy'...

    If you meet all of those stereotypes, then I am truly sorry for you and I understand your anger at the world- and specifically at Bun & Chad. They have acheived in the music biz, whereas you have floundered (sorry, 1 co-production doesn't make a career). They eat off of their efforts (and have for 13 YEARS) & are respected wherever they go. Unfortunately, for you, the only time folks speak your name is when they need a sack.

    But their talent & success, is only a part of what makes them great in other peoples eyes. It is what brings attention to them, but it is not what makes them great. The way they are & how they respect everybody's hustle makes people glad to see them come and sad to see them go.

    Hatin on them only makes you look small and resentful. You complain that they rep PAT (but nigga that's where they're from)... You complain that they rep Htown too (but that's where they live) You complain that they haven't put anybody on from PA (but that's moot because they have blessed the entire south)... Then you complain that Bun & Chad aren't g's (nigga please... you might've been to house on san jac and whatnot- but for you to say that- you have no clue)... You go on and on- but really, YOU are the one that's not really saying anything because we all see that it's YOU who is lacking.

    Right now, it seems that you've got a lot anger & hate towards people that are known all over the country for their openess & willingness to help a brother out. I don't know if it is a lack of love, respect, or self-esteem that has made you this way. But there is still hope for you.

    Though life in America is about economics, living means so much more than that. At the end of it all, what you did to get where you are is just as important how you did it. So, stop filling you cup full of haterade and realize you can do better than that.

  • At the end of it all, what you did to get where you are is just as important how you did it

    BMT2ATL, dats bullshit and you know it. what about joesph kennedy? what about prescott bush? both of these men where bootleggers and moonshine runners and both these men put their sons in da president seat. and these are two of the most respected families in american history. da bush's have a dynasty goin and prescott bush has had a son and grandson hold da president seat and it might be a second grandson wit jeb bush. how did they get their? doin' dirt. due to prohibition bootleggin' and moonshinin' was da equivalent of da modern day dope game. you think you smart but you don't know shit, bitch. i guess i'm a fortunate black man cause i came from a house wit a mother and a father who have been together 31 years. and my dad didn't spoil me he let me find my own way eventhough he doesn't agree wit what i do for a livin'. and i got one baby momma wit 2 kids who i have been wit 10 years, but i do hustle, smoke weed, and listen to hip hop. da reason why i brought up tom delay, martha stewart, and karl rove or bill clinton is doesn't matter if you white or black, rich, a goody two shoes, or a public official you can still fall. you can pray to god er'day and go to jail if did nothin' wrong. there are soldiers fightin in a war right now dat they don't believe in. i'm riskin' my life fo my fam. i fully aware of da game i play and da consequences, dats what makes me a man. and if shit happens i will deal wit like a man. i'm da only hustla i know dat pays for health insurance for me and my fam. i now what i'm hustlin fo and i know dis doesn't last forever. so stick to yo square ass life sponge bob cause yo real problem is you just a coward who's afraid to take chances. only chances you take is on da lotto. you probably to coward to buy stock on da stock market.

  • October 27, 2005 5:05 PM
  • BMT2ATL says...
  • Tsk, tsk, tsk... and I bet you don't even realize you are making my point for me.

    The example of the Bush fam is still a bad one because they are still one of the most hated families in the WORLD. But, nonetheless- it still reinforces the point that you do your dirt and then UPGRADE your hustle. Also, you prove my other point abvout how you get there, because you automatically threw up that part of their family history. Don't you think that amongst the wealthy families, they are still looked down upon (but excused bcz of the presidency)... It will be a few more generations before that just becomes a social footnote.

    The fact that you say you are risking your life for your family is bullshit. They did not stick a gun to your head and say, "Son/Honey/Daddy you better hustle or else!" So don't use them as your excuse. (YOU like it) That is a copout and you know it. That you recognize the danger of what you do DOES NOT make you a man.

    Don't even TRY to compare yourself to the men & women who DO risk their lives everyday, so your ass can fill up on haterade. You are not sacrificing YOUR LIFE for the greater good- you are MAKING MONEY off of other peoples vices and placing YOURSELF in danger.

    And don't get me wrong... SOMEBODY in the community is going to get that doughboy money one way or another. And 9 out of 10, they believe that they would starve, die or be homeless if they DIDN'T hustle- and some of them would. AND I DON"T BLAME THEM ONE BIT. It is a wanted and neccessary service in all communities, as long as it is illegal.

    But don't forget, the system is established to tear apart our community through violence, addiction, illiteracy, ignorance, and POVERTY. So what slavery & Jim Crow doesn't exist anymore, when we will do it (ie- kill, rape, rob, BRAINWASH, etc) ourselves- believing that is the best we can do and deserve. The 'crab in the barrel' mentality that you possess isn't your fault- you were socialized to be that way.

    But you fail to realize the point was hustle hard and then up your game. The Bushes did it... the Kennedys did it... The Mellons did it, The Rockefellers did it... Even the mafias (Italian, Japanese, Irish, Russian, etc...) have gone corporate. Corporate game ain't nothing but street game put down on paper & in a suit. So don't get it twisted.

    Every brother I know mackin it hard in the drug game, is looking for their way OUT. They REALIZE street hustlin is like playin russian roulette, and their number is bound to come up. But you are steady trying to justify yourself, and attempting to belittle other people who got the point already and have MOVED ON.

    I am not a square or a goody two shoes, I am a realist. Life is what it is and what it's going to be. I did not make the laws, and neither did you.

    But, let's keep it REAL- you wouldn't be this defensive if you were a doctor prescribing the same shit. But if you don't realize that how you get there speaks volumes about YOU, it's not my job to enlighten you.

  • October 27, 2005 7:18 PM

  • BMT2ATL, if how you get there speaks volumes for you, the what does it say about da bush's or da kennedy's or malcom x? but if i did dirt and my son ends up in da president seat i could care less what anyone thinks. and those soldiers are ova there fightin an unjustified war. where are da wmd's, saddam had nothin to do wit 9/11. so what are we fightin? for oil or da president just has a personal vendetta wit saddam for tryin to kill his dad. there is no basis for dis war. i don't have a crab in a barrel mentality, i put food on other niggas family table. and like i said before i know dis don't last foreva cause if you don't change then you wasn't a smart hustler to begin wit and you'll just end up wit a bunch of old war stories talkin bout what you use to do. i do risk my life for my fam . cause i would rather hustle than have my fam stuggle. my fam deserve da best and i would die for them to have it and they know it.
