It feels like a UGK track all over again. Bun B is rapping as hard as ever with Pimp C matching the verses. This song leaked a while back on the Internet. The lead single, “What Up”, features Drake and Pimp C’s former UGK brother, Bun B. Productions come from his own team (Cory Mo, Steve Below, DJ B-Do) so it sounds right! ( webringjustice) The whole record sounds like Pimp was behind the board instead the large amount of features needed to complete a full Lp. That 13 tracks opus is made with materials Chad was recording just before his death and it never looks like a puzzled album. ( AllHipHop)Īs expected, Pimp C relied heavily on Rap-A-Lot beatsmiths to assist with his soul -searching. The new album features an all-star lineup of Hip-Hop artists like founding UGK group member Bun B., Trill label mates Webbie & Lil Boosie, E-40, Drake, Chamillionaire, Too $hort, Rick Ross, Young Jeezy and others. The guest appearances on the album read like a list of hip-hop’s best of the flyest & “trill-est” artists. However, the naked soul of Sweet James Jones is still very much present, which makes Pimp’s final offering a built-in classic in its own right. The Naked Soul of Sweet James Jones, believed to be a follow-up to 2005’s Sweet James Jones Stories, probably sounds little like what Pimp would have crafted himself. Pimp C was a recording machine, dropping verses on a dime and practically living in the studio. When UGK legend Pimp C a/k/a Chad Butler left the planet on Decemhis final work was in its infantile stages. The posthumous album marks Pimp C’s first solo album, and the last project he worked on before his untimely death.
