Bun B & Gary Clark Jr. Perform A Heartfelt Tribute To Pimp C

Next month, Nipsey Hussle’s Victory Lap turns one. That same week, Nip’s major label debut in a discography filled with elite mixtapes will compete for “Best Rap Album” at the Grammy Awards (February 10). If it gets the win, Nip’ will have come a long way from his decade as an underground hero in Los Angeles, California’s Crenshaw district.

Victory Lap is still making its rounds. The title track is one of the highlights in the All Money In No Money Out/Atlantic Records LP. Featuring Stacy Barthe, the track adheres to Hussle’s mixtape narratives of moving with care through the ‘hood and refusing to compromise. That formula took him to the top, even if it was a journey where trusting the process was essential.

The video sees Nipsey Hussle journeying from Crenshaw to a luxury beachfront destination in Mexico. It parallels his 2018, which shows no signs of stopping—win or no win.

The opening song from the LP is co-produced by Mike & Keys. The production duo formerly known as The Futuristiks, has a decade in the game. They’ve worked on albums by Redman, 50 Cent, and Domo Genesis, as well as longtime collaboration with Neighborhood Nip’.

To celebrate what would have been Pimp C’s 45th birthday on December 29, Bun B dropped an emotive live rendition of his recent tribute to his close friend and partner in UGK. It has been 11 years since highly influential MC/producer Chad Butler passed away in West Hollywood due to complications codeine syrup consumption related to his sleep apnea.

Pimp had started Underground Kingz with Bun in their hometown of Port Arthur, Texas when the two were just teens in the last 1980s. The duo dropped their debut, Too Hard To Swallow, with Jive Records in 1992, and they released their fifth studio album, Underground Kingz, exactly four months before Butler’s untimely passing on December 7, 2007. With some help from affiliates OutKast and Three 6 Mafia, that Jive LP went to #1 for a group long known for its Underground status.
