Coulda Shoulda Woulda Been UGK's Reunion Show
Couple Mixtapes for YOU

Well yeah I know, I know, I know, believe me I know. The blogosphere is falling off and leading the way over the cliff into oblivion is HoustonSoReal. Eva stepped on my laptop and broke the screen whilst executing a swan dive off my desk onto my office futon (I think) and well with my travel schedule these days, internetting is not always the easiest thing in the world. There you go. Enjoy that, my weekly excuse.

Tonight I've got a bunch of photos from the most gangsta V.I.P. section I've ever been in. Check the flicks below and you'll see a gang of my favorite rappers all in one place at one time, in celebration of the on stage reunion of Bun B and Pimp C. Well, um, we wish that would have happened. I'll get into that in a second.


Cory Mo


Big Monsta - MDDL FNGZ!


Chase Infinite of Self Scientific


Dolla Bill and Cyr. If you don't know Dolla Bill is working closely with Rapid Ric and produced Ric's first single, "Pullin' Up."


Bandit - MDDL FNGZ




DJ Muggs and Chace Infinite


B=Legit!



As you can see, there were a lot of true underground V.I.P.s in the house. Everything seemed so perfect until about 2 a.m. or so when the second opening act -

- The Product, minus Scarface, hit the stage. Now the Product is dope as hell, but not at 2 a.m. on a Sunday when youare waiting to see UGK. After them, a girl group hit the stage at like 2:20. It was about this point when security or someone roused Bun and led him to the backstage area where Pimp was waiting.

Apparently, someone stole a microphone somewhere in between when the girls got off the stage and UGK were supposed to go on. I don't know man. All I know is that I remember looking at my phone at 2:36 a.m. thinking man, this is just really insane for me to even be here waiting for thse dudes to perform 36 minutes after closing time and nothing has started and here I stand in a... you know man. I was kind of exploding inside thinking about how this was supposed to be such a special occassion.

About this time, a fight broke out just outside the backstage (closet sized) room door and a few minutes later we heard Choppa take the stage. No one was really sure why Choppa was on stage, but from what I hear, the fight that shut the place down happened in front of the stage and people tell me Choppa hit someone from the stage. I don't fuckin' know. Ididn't see it. All I know is I was at Bar frickin' Rio from 11:00 p.m. - 3:00 a.m. and did not see UGK perform.


But whatever I got this thowed picture of B-Legit and Z-Ro!


And yep, C-Bo was in the house seen here with Uncle Pauly


And DJ Domo (along with Good Grief) manned the tables all night.


Z-Ro, Cory Mo


Bandit, Z-Ro


Young Bleed


I bet any money this girl sings




Choppa and crew


Press Corps in the house - JOn Caramanica, Shaheem Reid


Michael Watts


My boy Tim and C-Bo


UTP and Grafh


West Coast Mafia FOOL!

I have a question about this UGK thang. I know that these dudes were both at least in the vicinity of the building at 1 a.m. Why didn't somebody from their camp take charge and get the two of them together backstage and go grab the mics from the promoters and put them on stage. Fuck an opening act. People paid their $75 general admission at the door to see UGK. But, they didn't see UGK. Why? I really want to know. Why were there opening acts at 2 a.m.? On a Sunday? I'm still tired from this shit.


Josh of Chamillitary and Nancy Byron


Dolla Bill and Cyr


Bandit, Skinhead Rob, Sean Wee


E-Rock, 5th Ward Boyz


Shout out to Julia Beverly at Ozone Magazine and the Crunk Juice Massive for the use of the Crunk Juice Tahoe, or as DJ Eva calls it - "The Juice Truck." Seen here with Jon Caramanica.

But what's really crazy about this event, is that all the while all this OTHER shit is going on, up in the top corner of the club, my man Orbit has this "Art Show" going on. Man, I was just standing there minding my own business and MAN Orbit comes up and tells me to come check out the art show he curated for the night. Man, I'm not trippin. The following links are not safe for work. Wait till you get home. And young uns well, click here immediately. Don't look past this first sneak preview.


I'm just saying. At LEAST they were painting girls at this thang thang.

Art Show 1

Art Show 2

Art Show 3

Art Show 4

Art Show 5

Art Show 6

Art Show 7

Art Show 8

Art Show 9

Art Show 10

Art Show 11

And this girl I think talked her way into getting painted in public. I saw a bit of the negotiation go down.
