Well I think much 2 many has given them a bad name
I've dealt with plenty of fools who tried 2 be a pimp/playa
They just ended up looking like a bunch of bald-head bathunes ...

as street termenology goes...

"You must respect the game and the game shall respect you" Which is true, I have much respects 4 the game when the game is played properly.... ooookkkkayyy nod

A PIMP CAN ONLY BREAK A HO, A PLAYER CAN RUN THROUGH YOUR FAMILY LIKE THE FLU. HAVE 'EM BROKE EATIN OUTTA GARBAGE CANS, MAKE 'EM A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF 'GROWN AND CAN'T MAKE IT'

Yes... They were never to be anything but BAD NAMES much like that 'N' word. but as you can plainly see whut use to be bassicly a 'negro' thang is now somethin wanted by all.
the fact of the matter is that all that was bad in the past is good in the future.
It's the break down of all those rules that were put together by the 'uptight' that we (pimps playas and thangs)
had to curcomvent in oder to find a life where we were givin none.

i'm sorry, but that's just ignorant, to compare pimp & playa to the "n" word, as something to be reclaimed by an oppressed portion of a society. some would even say that using "nigger" in that way is idiotic, but i'll leave that to others to do.

pimp? player? oh, those poor downtrodden souls, oppressed for being subjegators and sluts. rising up with pride. that's just fucking stupid.

I guess that's also how it was for you gay people.
only recently (20 years) have you been proud to be a 'FAG'
it's funny how you don't take it from the horses mouth.
There is no longer a pain from the stigma of bein a 'nigga'
and as Pimps and Playas we jet set like the stars and your favorite athletes. We get invited to places like the govenors mansion and balls at city hall.
The thing is We have become respectable in whut we do.
We no longer shy away from the dirty lil names we're called
and that is all due to the Pimps and Playas that have a history as far back as slavery. Oh yeah we have a history.
and it ain't all that punkass iceberg slim shit.
Pimps have a shortcommin. Playas learned from them.
and now our kids and your learn from whut we do. Wheather you like it or not.
I AM King BAD a.k.a. BAD,
YOU EITHER WANNA BE ME, OR BE JUST LIKE ME
