The passing of an "International Player"

Pimp C (Chad Butler), one half of the part underground part mainstream rap duo, UGK was found dead today hotel room bed. A 911 call lead authorities to the 6th floor of the Mondrian Hotel in Hollywood, CA. At this time all the details have not been released as to how he died. He was only 33 years old.

Popular mainstream music by UGK, The Underground Kingz:
Big Pimpin' (2000, with Jay-Z)
International Player's Anthem (2007, with OutKast)


Our sympathies go out to Chad's family, Bun B (Bernard Freeman of UGK) and other friends. This is a hard hit for the industry...rarely expected.
