i dont know if he never had a pocket full of stones, but i know it was common knowledge that ugk wasnt real street dudes.
it just got conveniently forgotten when pimp c died.
True, alot of people dont realize Pimp was destined for Broadway...nikka was winning all kinds of awards and performing at carnegie hall as tenor...
rap was the thing to do back then 88-2003 u had more rap labels and crews in texas than anywhere in the us
ugk before pocket full of stones was different..content wise
bun wasnt even in the group it was pimp n mitch queen, pimp came from money he was a good kid
when bun came in the picture...pimp's content started changing because he was a crate digger and they made their way to houston..pimp n bun were fry heads and syrup heads, they was around the slab and brick movers pimp n 3-2 were the best of friends and alot of people know how 3-2 gets down..
3-2 being 1 of the early s.u.c members, brought em around screw, when u around screw u will see all the big time weight nikkas, blount, kay and a host of others
ugk rapped about because thats what their environment was pimp n bun were faces in the leans, cresmont, hiram clarke, dead end and 3rd n 5th ward
so that street willie d n gangsta nip shyt influence pimp heavily because he would start sayin some of the most off the wall shyt,
pimp wasnt the a$$hole he was when he died he was ducked off in crowley louisiana and p.a alot workin on his shyt, then when the dungeon made the scene, he dipped to atlanta for long time had a mansion n everything fukkin with the dungeon, ray, sleepy and rico
bun was the a$$hole back then, pimp came back it seem like bun became the low key cat n pimp got rowdy
pimp c= rev run, willie d, nip too short and hi-c
if u listen to any of those 5 rappers albums u will hear some of the shyt pimp came from
by super tight pimp was big on w.c , you can hear it all thru the album
bun b ...he is influenced heavily by royal flush's ricky royal(gangsta ric/cocoabudda)
too hard to swallow is heavily influenced by royal flush 976-dope sound wise
if u listen to bun from the southern way up to super tight..u can tell his flow was lazy 95-96 his flow did a complete change..
ricky is on this song and this is when bun's flow change because he started fukkin with rick, since rick was a dj in dallas now at k104 with Bo$$
rydin dirty, dirty money bun is when he was fukkin with ricky ....he fell off once ricky became a family man n married bo$$, ricky helped bun alot, his flow and style wasnt as predictable as it is today, now its gladitor this, king of the underground, king of the trill, he say the same shyt over n over
plies n pimp c not the only smart nikkas in rap that act ignorant...david banner say all the time he preaches, but nobody listen, he came out
he backdoored that with
nobody really fukked with it , then he made play and get like me and they were hits but soon as he make some shyt with a message the system aint tryin 2 hear it..
so he mixed it up
