Both as a member of UGK with Bun B and as a solo artist, Chad "Pimp C" Butler laid down a blueprint that many rappers have been influenced by. The Port Arthur, Texas native passed away at the young age of 33, leaving a void that can never be filled because you simply can't duplicate who Pimp C was as an artist and outspoken voice of the streets.
However, fans will get an in depth look into the rapper's life thanks to Julia Beverly, editor of OZONE Magazine. She has been picked to write Pimp C's biography, according to a press release.
Under the guidance of Pimp C’s beloved mother and manager Weslyn “Mama Wes” Monroe, former OZONE Magazine Publisher and Editor-in-Chief Julia Beverly brings the charismatic entertainer back to life in an upcoming biography, recreating both the highs and lows of his life and career in vivid detail. The book includes a foreword by rapper Too $hort and is based on in-depth interviews with 250 of Pimp C’s family members, friends, and collaborators including UGK partner Bun B, Snoop Dogg, Three 6 Mafia, 8Ball & MJG, the Geto Boys, Master P, David Banner, Slim Thug, Paul Wall, Ice-T, Goodie Mob, Lil Keke, Z-Ro, Trae, Webbie, Mannie Fresh, and many more.
The title and release date will be announced soon
