Representatives for UGK member Chad "Pimp C." Butler have come forward to address rumors spreading about his upcoming funeral and when and where it will take place.

 

While various reports have suggested that the rapper will be laid to rest this weekend in Houston, sources told AllHipHop.com that the rapper’s final resting place will be his hometown of Port Arthur, Texas.

 

His management confirmed that funeral arrangements are currently being made to hold the funeral on Thursday (December 13) at a yet-to-be-announced location.

 

A formal statement will be issued on Monday confirming the location of Pimp C’s funeral, which is expected to draw thousands of fans and supporters.

 

Pimp C., 33, was found dead in his hotel bed at Mondrian Hotel in Los Angeles on Tuesday (December 5), just weeks shy of his 34th birthday.

 

While the Department of the Coroner is awaiting an official toxicology report to determine the cause of Pimp C.’s death, investigators believe that the rapper died of natural causes in his sleep.

 

In related news, UGK’s hit single "International Players Anthem (I Choose You)" was nominated for a Grammy Award in the Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group category, just days after his death.

 

The single is taken from UGK’s album Underground Kingz, which debuted at #1 on Billboard’s Top 200 Albums Chart in August.

I thought that was only for old people.  33 is not old.  So why the Coroner make a statement like that before the autopsy....?

God chose him........

SO lets get this straight.

Big Moe

Big Hawk, Gerald Levert, Luther Vandross, James Brown, Kanyes Mother, Tom Joyners father, ludacris father and Lloyd banks father...

Baby sister, Mannie Fresh sister and

now Pimp C.....

If this keeps up like this for the next 5 years Where will all of our celebrities and our state of mind be?

Its time for us to sing and rap about the power of God and spread it through our communities.  then spread this around the world.  We will have to put beliefs to the side and think of the One God so that he will guide us into the future.  All of this happening reminds me of the 1st stages of the Holocaust......

No one can protect us but God and he is sacrificing people around us to wake us up.  He is causing major calamities with the weather to wake us up.

Look at all of the stuff thathappened in Washington State that they wont talk about on the news....A four lane highway coveredwith 10 feet of water.  The whole state almost has been shut down.  It looks like a Hurricane Katrina repeat.

They wont show it on the news because you will know that God is amongst us to show he will avenge us and save us....

We just have to submit and know who he is.

Unrelated news, but good news:

Bay Area rapper Spice 1 is currently recovering in an East Bay hospital after being shot early Monday morning (December 3) in front of his parents' Hayward, California home (see "Bay Area Rapper Spice 1 Shot, In Critical Condition").

According to the San Francisco Chronicle, the rapper's family revealed that he suffered a collapsed lung due to a shot in the chest.

"He's in pain, but otherwise he's coming along really well," his mother, Jean Green-Craven, 57, told the paper on Thursday (December 6). "He's a very lucky young man."

His family revealed that Spice 1 (real name: Robert L. Green, Jr.) told them that he was sitting in his Cadillac Escalade outside their home, listening to music and talking to his girlfriend on the phone when he noticed that someone had walked up to the passenger side of the vehicle and tried to "jimmy" the door.

Spice then demanded to know who it was right before being shot.

According to the rapper's step father, 57-year-old Jerry Craven, it's possible that someone was trying to steal the car not knowing his stepson was inside, due to the vehicle's dark tinted windows.

So far, no motive for the shooting has been established and no arrests have been made, Police Lt. Reid Lindblom told the paper.

Craven also noted that he doesn't believe the shooting was rap-related.

**I've checked the box and everything but i'm not gettin alerts(comments, post, blogs)..can some1 tell me what i'm doing wrong?

SMOOCHES!

both yall wrong.
Pac got shot September 5th, he died 7 days later.
That's where all the "Pac lives" junk comes from. From his album being called the 7 Day Theory and then he died 7 days after being shot.
