Pimp C’s Funeral Scheduled For Thursday

Tuesday, December 11, 2007
By: Kenny Rodriguez


Pimp CFuneral arrangements for Pimp C, who passed away last week from unknown causes, are being planned for Thursday, Dec. 13, in his hometown of Port Arthur, Texas.

Pimp C, born Chad Butler, was found dead on Dec. 5 at the Mondrian Hotel in Los Angeles. Officials confirm there were no signs of foul play, and autopsy results will not be available for up to eight weeks.

According to a representative from Rap-A-Lot Records, the 33-year-old rapper was in California to perform alongside Too Short during several spot dates.

After family members hadn’t heard from Butler for several days, a phone call was placed to his hotel, and his dead body was discovered.

The memorial service will take place at the Robert A. Bowers Civic Center, about 90 miles east of Houston.

The funeral, which is open to the public, will begin at 11 a.m.

I am a white boy from indiana but i happen to listen to alot of rap and what pimp c did over the years is something he can go out on and not have nothing to regret. The way pimp and bun put it together is untouchable even to tupac and biggie or whoever in the F*ck else you wanna put them up against. I live near south of naptown and got a chance to go to the ugk concert when they was here this past year and it was badass. They know how to put the words with the beat and make the music they that sells in the streets. All in all pimp c will be missed by many. Like i said, i am a F*ck*n white boy from some little town south of indianapolis and i will miss that n*gga. I cant imagine how painful it will be for those who are closest to him. Bun b stay up man and keep after the pimp's kids cause he would trust you if anybody. Peace out yall and keep flying high pimp c...you truly is amoung the stars and the clouds now brother...god bless the pimp and all of the people who got love for him... Oc...

Love you (pimp c), now it's time for you to lay the real game down and preach the word of the lord!!! pimp"s up the devil's down, your in a better place, may god rest your soul and bless your family!!!!!

Yes, it's sad he died. But what about the little girl, riley, whose body washed up in a plastic container in galveston? or the girl beaten to death by her mother's boyfriend? or all the other kids, toddlers, people and elders that die horrible deaths everyday?? and we choose to mourn a rapper? people die everyday. I wish people would get their heads out of their butts and realize the most important man who died for all of us over 2000 years ago. Go to church, learn something. Ugh.

Hey, chad this is your homeboy jimmy aka suave i'm going to miss you man. A lot of people did not know the real you like me and the rest of your homeboys. I remember how we use to battle each other on the mic over a my cousin dj dmd's house and how we would all hangout on pleasure island on sundays just rappin and freestylin. I will never forget how hard it was for us to get out there on the music scene, but you & bun paved the way us and countless others. Ugk was always an inspiration to us, because you were the fisrt of the crew to make it big (true pioneers in the game). Pocket full of stones and tell me something good were classics. Even though our paths went different ways i carried those memories with me. You never forgot were you came from and came back to help others make it. I will always love you & bun and may god bless your family. Rip homeboy, forever in our hearts and mine. Love always, jimmy aka suave ugk4life p.a.t. Big pimpin
