Did you know who UGK were before Big Pimpin?

[5th Letter]

This is spawned by the other UGK thread.

 

[Herbal Kint]

Yup, they got bumped in the Bay

 

[Mooney]

As a person who grew up upNorth I can say I heard of them but never listened to they music.
Big Pimpin got them out into the light worldwide ..gotta thank Jz 4 that!

Would they have gotten the type of exposure without big pimpin?

 

[illed_Out]

Heard “pocket full of stones”
on the Menace 2 society soundtrack
back in 1993 and been fucking with they music ever since !!

 

[The Hue]

[Mooney]

[Revolver Ocelot]

Nah. Big Pimpin' is what made me check out UGK's music.

Been a fan since.

RIP Pimp C

 

[Banginscrew901]

[Chi-Town B]

Nope and after Big Pimping they wasn't thought of by me again

 

[SeaSnake]

[konceptjones]

My boy put me up on "Pregnant Pussy" around the end of '92. Early '93 he copped "Too Hard to Swallow" and we rode out to that tape all the damned time.

The bolded and "I'm so bad" are two songs by UGK that I'm NEVER trying to ride around bumping

 

[Loquacious]

Yup.

 

[T. Sanford]

Yup most definitely, they was on the Menace To Society soundtrack with Pocket Full Of Stones. The generation before me used to ride to UGK. UGK music is always the GOAT music but UGK music inside of an old school whip is the perfect combo. Niggas used to ride around, or pull up the street & bump Hi-Life in the trunk. That song beats the block up but we were already on UGK in the early 90s. Amazing that Ridin Dirty sold 500,000 away promotion nor video

 

[Knock_Twice]

Yep

Bros stayed playing this in the morning
