Title: UGK 4 Life - 5 Years Later
Post by: Blood$ on April 01, 2014, 09:30:12 AM
that album dropped exactly 5 years ago on this day, one of the last true classics to drop from the South IMO

it will always remind me of my senior year and what not, favorite jam is "Pimp & The Bun" and "Swishas & Herb"

Long live the Pimp  8)

You can def tell which songs were completed with Pimp fully involved and the ones that were finished without him.

"Still on the grind" for example...absolutely brilliant, next level production, and pimps verses were ridiculous..."I ain't payin you, need to be payin me, pussy a dime a dozen but the dick ain't free...his delivery was impeccable.

Games been good to me, the pimp and the bun, she luv it, purse come first...all classic songs.

Pimp still had not peaked as an artist, he was still improving musically when he died.

His solo album had some really sick songs as well.

Word...there's 2 types of rap fans: those who are up on UGK, and those who aren't...I feel sorry for their mothers.

never fully listened to the album, shame on me, i stopped after Underground Kingz,

Used 2 Be is my shit though, 6 legends on the same track,

Game's Been Good To Me is a classic UGK groove, I think Pimp was dissing Lil Troy on that one.

The intro and outro are sick too lol, Cory Mo really has potential to carry the "country rap tunes" torch

I wasn't crazy about the hook on that 40/Snoop track but I agree with all of that for the most part

That Akon joint is atrocious. Pimp would have never done that. Prime example of a song that was reworked. Bullshit just like they did with Pac.

Yes on Lil Troy diss...it's def worth checkin, there are certified classics on there.

Check "Still on the Grind".
