Pimp C Laid to Rest in Texas

Posted Dec 13th 2007 12:47PM by TMZ Staff

Rapper Pimp C's funeral in Port Arthur, Texas is currently underway.

KFDM-TV cameras caught the hearse pulling up to the Robert A. Bowers Civic Center in the rapper's hometown this morning. As TMZ first reported Pimp C, aka Chad Butler, was found dead last week in his room at Hollywood's Mondrian Hotel.

According to KFDM, Jay-Z and Snoop Dogg had planned on attending -- but were no shows. We're told one time collaborator C-Murder also won't be able to make it. He's on house arrest awaiting his murder retrial. Rappers Bun B, Chamillionaire and Mike Jones were all in attendance.

2. I can't believe people talk crap they way they do about the deceased. The man was inspiring, what, just because he's not white and doesn't sing Boot Scootin' Boogy, or some Elton John stuff.. just remember how you Judge, you will also be Judged.. RIP Chad Pimp C Butler... your a moron on this site and you only make yourself look like a dumb retard making stupid comments...+

11. If all the rappers, gangstas, hiphippers and other assorted trash, criminals and pimps got together, the cops could bust the whole lot of them and get a ton of garbage off the streets.

Who the hell cares about this pimp-jerk-criminal anyways?

15. I think it's disgusting that I'm the first person to post something positive. Pimp C....despite his name wasn't a thug. He was one of the most musically inclined rappers ever. He was a smart man, and well liked. A man died...a family is grieving, as is his wide fanbase. Be respectful.
