Early today Bun B called Vibe Magazine about the sudden death of his rap partner Pimp C, who passes away early this week from a natural death in LA.



VIBE: What memory of Pimp C stands out the most to you?

BUN B: So many changes and phases of life. I think on a good day, on a great day, I couldn’t point my finger at one thing. So many different memories: The day we signed, our first video, the first time we heard ourselves on the radio. So many different things. Most of my greatest moments in life, my greatest achievements, came standing right next to him, you know? So it’s hard to pinpoint any one thing. So many different moments.

Where were you when you found out he died? Who told you?

BUN B: I don’t want to get into all that because I don’t want to put other people’s grief out there. It was a very close person to myself and him. Because no one was there [when he died], we have to wait to receive information, receive the right information. But we got a call, and when they called, they were crying, and we knew what it was. It was my wife and I together. I was home with my wife. And we’re moving this week, so we were packing up a lot of different boxes. And it kind of helped me, because it helped me occupy my mind, but then I’d get a phone call from somebody, and different people wanting to make sure I was okay. It was and it is rough. It’s still very, very new. And for a lot of people, it’s still very surreal.

Have any funeral arrangements been made?
BUN B: Yeah, we’re still in the process of making it. It’s all depending on exactly when we get the body and preparation times, so we’re trying to be premeditative about as many things as we can. So, more than likely it’ll be this weekend, so people can be afforded the opportunity to come and mourn him properly. [
