Personal preference
Like many African-Americans, PimpC has a unique interest in Chinese characters, and the words "Sui" and "fame and fortune" are tattooed on his arm.
He and BunB (Bernard Freeman) formed the band "King of the Underground" in middle school. Their simple and lively singing style and aggressive style have influenced the current generation of superstars, such as Lil'Wayne. In order to cover their 1994 "Front, Back and Side" in their own album "The King", T.I. also invited them to sing for their own album. For followers, PimpC is best known for its close-up of the band "King of the Underground" on Jay-Z's best-selling single "BigPimpin". After PimpC was sentenced to prison for holding a gun earlier in 2002, BunB took over his career, publicized the slogan "Let PimpC go" everywhere, and issued T-shirts printed with "Let PimpC go".
