UGK group member Chad "Pimp C" Butler was found dead in room at the Mondrian Hotel today around 9:00 am PST, after members of the rapper’s family contacted the Sunset Strip property to report the artist missing.
In a statement released by the Mondrian, the hotel received several calls this morning from concerned family members inquiring about Butler’s whereabouts.
"Security personnel went to Mr. Butler’s room and found him in bed, apparently expired," Gerald McKelvy, a spokesman for the hotel told AllHipHop.com. "A 911 call was placed at about 9:20 AM and paramedics from the Los Angeles Fire Department responded and pronounced Mr. Butler dead."
The Los Angeles County Sherriff’s office has confirmed that their homicide department is currently investigating the scene, which, according to LASD PR Liason Dept. Oscar Butao, is standard procedure whenever a victim is found who did not die of natural causes.
At press time, a cause of death had not been determined.
Butler checked into the Mondrian on November 28 and according to those close to him who contacted the hotel, was due to have checked out on Monday (December 4).
Pimp C. would have celebrated his 34 birthday on December 29.
Various rapper expressed shocked at the sudden passing of Pimp C.
"Pimp C had that type of flow and swagger that no other artist has. Hip-Hop and the world in general will miss his presence," said Chicago rapper Twista, who rapped alongside Pimp C. on the remix to "I'm In Luv Wit A Stripper," with Paul Wall, R. Kelly, MJG and Too Short.
"Pimp C was a great man who inspired a whole generation of people in Texas including us," Said Grammy Award Winning Producers and Texas natives Play-N-Skillz. He was much bigger than just music, he was the Godfather of everything in Texas. We send our sincerest condolences to Chad's family."
Jive Records’ President and CEO Barry Weiss called the rapper a "thoughtful and kind-hearted person."
"He will be remembered for his talent and profound influence as a pioneer in bringing southern rap to the forefront," Weiss said. "He will be missed and our prayers remain with his family and Bun B. I've known Chad since he was 18, and we loved him dearly and he was a cherished member of the Jive family."

Just got off of work and heard about this. Still in shock about it. I hope this is not a murder. It seems like rappers are becoming targets again of violence. It's really sad, I was just thinking about bumping some UGK the other day. Man I am speechless right now.

Coroner: Pimp C May Have Died of Natural Causes
Posted Dec 4th 2007 6:09PM by TMZ Staff
Filed under: Music, R.I.P.
Capt. Ed Winter of the L.A. County Coroner's office tells TMZ that it appears as though rapper Pimp C died of natural causes in a Hollywood hotel room today.
We're told no drug paraphernalia or other drugs were found in the room. The rapper, we've learned, was found fully clothed on top of the bed. He did not seem to have fallen or injured himself and he was positioned on his side.
Winter said it did not appear that there was anyone else in the room at the time of his death. An autopsy will be performed and toxicology test results will be available in six to eight weeks.
Pimp C, whose real name is Chad Butler, was one half of the Houston rap duo UGK.
