Pimp C always kept it real in life and in music, so when it comes to his legacy, expect his wife to do the same.
According to published reports, Chinara Butler, the wife of the late legend, has some choice words for Young Thug after the Cash Money artist name dropped Pimp C during his verse on Chance The Rapper‘s “Big B’s.”
In the song, Young Thug references the UGK rapper’s verse from the group’s collaboration with Outkast, “Int’l Player’s Anthem (I Choose You).” On the collaboration track, Pimp C opens his iconic verse with the line:
“My bitch a choosy lover, never fuck without a rubber/Never in the sheets, like it on top of the cover.”
On “Big B’s,” Thugger seemingly takes a nod at the classic hit, responding to Pimp C’s verse directly saying:
“Pimp C, I ain’t doing that, I’ma fuck her on the sheets, yeah/And all my niggas loyal like Bun B, hold on.”
Although Young Thug wasn’t apparently malicious in his intent, Ms. Butler wasn’t feeling the mention and took to Instagram to express her displeasure with the verse.
“I’m feeling a certain kind of way about Young Thug and Jeffery verse. He mentioned Chad, he said something like, ‘Pimp C, I ain’t doing that’ where he disagrees with it or whatever. My thing is if Chad was alive, you wouldn’t mention him in that song the way you did, so don’t do it now. So, watch your mouth. He’s not here to have that conversation with you, but I am.”
The wife of the Hip-Hop great then goes on to shout out JAY-Z, Frank Ocean, A$AP Mob, Blac Youngsta, J. Cole and other rappers for giving the late rapper props in their songs, saying “she appreciates the love” with them doing it the “right way.”
