Lyrics:
So I typed a text to a girl I used to see
Sayin' that I chose this cutie pie with whom I wanna be
And I apologize if this message gets you down
Then I cc'ed every girl that I'd see, see 'round town
And hate to see y'all frown, but I'd rather see her smilin'
Wetness all around me, true, but I'm no island
Peninsula maybe, it makes no sense, I know crazy
Give up all this pussy cat that's in my lap, no lookin' back?
Spaceships don't come equipped with rear view mirrors
They dip as quick as they can, the atmosphere is now ripped
I'm so like a pimp, I'm glad it's night, stole the light from the sun
Would not burn me on my bum when I shoot the moon
#UGK #Outkast #IntlPlayersAnthem #IChooseYou #DirectorsCut
This single means so much. It was one of the last times outkast collaborated on a track as a duo and it was the last single UGK made before Pimp C died later that year. This video marks the end of an era, but the way they celebrate in the song with the wedding theme and it being the "end of a pimping dynasty" was done so perfectly. In my opinion this is a legendary song and video that will be a staple of what southern hip hop was like years from now. #RIPIMPC
Exactly man! I feel the same way
Well said.
Ahmed Ismail Effing brilliantly put. I think this song might also mark the end of rap groups as we know them. (I' put money on a Migos breakup in the next year.) The only thing wrong with your statement is that I wish it wasn't so true.
Theodore Huxtable Haha thx Theo, I agree with you too, Im hoping groups will make a return as well and they can be as influential as they were in the 90's and early 00's.
I so agree..!!
Pimp C was mad when Andre sent his verse in with no drums. The acappella to beat switch totally makes this song. Andre knew something was special about this piece.
The acappella wasn’t on purpose
@@antoniogiles589 yeah… yeah it was. Pimp C didn’t think anyone was more special than him, and Andre not having the beat would be like saying he was. Then he heard the song, and decided Andre’s park really shined without the beat. Andre decided that, pimp C didn’t like the idea until he listened.
Man, just heard that from Dre on Lebron’s Barbershop
What's crazy is that the best drop on his verse really made him stand out on this song! 😂
Yeah I just recently saw that in a 3k interview
This song refuses to age. It still sounds fresh everytime I hear it
💯
Every. Single. Time.
Re using 36 mafia beats is hot right now.
For real
This is my jam!!! " I choose you babeeeeeeee!!!! Ask Paul McCartney...the lawyers couldn't stop me!! We had a pimpin' dynasty...lol"
UGK + Outkast + 3-6 Mafia + Goodie Mob + T-Pain + Magic Don Juan + David Banner + Fonzworth Bentley ..... ALL in a music video together
= A SOUTHERN CLASSIC
You’re missing A LOT MORE
@@keeyes2883 list them ALL!
Charmillionaire, T Pain, Big Gipp...
Andre 3K Verse Is One Of The Most Memorable Verses In Hip Hop History
ONE OF THE BEST RAP VIDEOS MADE IN MY OPINION... CLASSIC!!!
“CC’ed every girl that I’d see see around town”. Classic record and verse for sure.
Pimp C
That's why 3000 is my top 5
@@namenotfound8747 most def
T-Pain in the background cracks me up.
Jimmie Julion everytime...lol..
JL Jules lol ikr extra ass lololol
Jimmie Julion hahahahahaha
T pain, David banner and many others just showed up. None were cast for the original video. They got put in the day of the shoot. That's the love pimp and bun had.
Every. Damn. Time. !!! Lol
Fun fact about this music video. None of these cameo's were originally casted to be in the video. It was all by pure coincidence that the shooting of this music video was just a couple days away from the BET awards , they all happen to be in town and decided to join in on set for the fun, making this video. This just adds on to why this MV is one of my favorites of the 2000s. These folks legitimately had a fun time on set shooting this video.
Ohh Worrd ??!!!
Woow, that’s dope
Those were the days. 👌
Love your videos man
Dig that
The definition of "understanding the assignment" everybody "played their part" as Andre told em. Easily one of the greatest songs in Hip Hop History!
RIP Chad Butler
Bruh on God RIP PIMP C, RIP GOOD MUSIC , RIP GREAT TIME TO BE A LIVE
If this doesn’t get played at my reception....... ight I’mma head out. ✌🏽
Facts💨💨
Factsssss
Me too
Facts✌🏾😂
Right
Andre 3000 is arguably one of the best lyricists of all time.
+Verbal Kint I'm pretty sure it's a universal fact that Andre 3k is one of the best rappers of all time.
Yep.
Agreed
Big Boi > Andre
Steven Bain I respect your opinion
The arrangement, the background vocals, the track, the lyrics, every single performance was amazing. The skits, the jokes, everything about it is wonderful!
RIP Pimp C.
This is musical royalty right here!
Litterally everything
When songs used to be put together 😢😩😂😂😂😂
Who listening in 2024 like an OG 🤔
Me
Yep, just like I was when it came out.
Already
Classic!!!! Aye tee elle hoe
& won’t stop
This song will never get old! 2024 still bumping!
I heard a commercial on a sports radio using this song as the background today :D
Facts 2024🎉
I just got married 4 hours and this joint been on repeat!
congratulations!!!!
Lol😂😅😂
Damn i hate it for you if this was your go to song lmao 😂😂
@@LetoChrist hope it lasts! fr though.
😂
2:49 Let's just recognize how flawlessly Bun B rode the breakdown of that beat
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Man I think that’s why his verse isn’t praised as much as it should be. This nigga was too damn smooth when he came in! You don’t even realize it’s a verse 😭
@@aris95music smooth AF 💯💯
i love his verse
I get chills every time he comes in.
Outkast and UGK always had the ability to produce timeless tracks.
That DJ Paul and Juicy J production made it classic. Pimp C told Paul fresh out of prison that he wanted to re-do the song.
Dj Paul production
The original song is from project pat album
And project pat
They took a classic and made it sound good love the old ❤ version too❤❤❤
I'm getting married in 3 weeks and this is a bitter sweet thing hearing this song because I've been on both ends of the spectrum..Ima miss being single but I can't live without my future wife..smh life is crazy.
O'zerick Beales "too soon don't do it", lol
Brooklyn B reconsider, read some litera.....ture on subject
Keep ya heart, O'zerik!
Let me smash. I let you know if she's a keeper. I gotchu fam
Should have reconsidered
Everytime Pimp C comes in with that "My b!tch a choosey...", I always turn this one wayyy up!
Rest In Peace Pimp C. Always.
$weet Jones
Pimp C🙏🏿
Shid that's when that beat hit so of course.
RIP Pimp
As soon as I hear that sweet jones I get goosebumps
ANYBODY IN JUNE 2024??🔥🔥🕺🏾
On repeat June 15th
2024 to infinity fasho, R.I.P. "PIMP C" 🔥💪💯
Already
Everyday on schedule
Some songs are just a hit ,this song still makes waves around the world and will continue for decades. Ugk
Big Boi’s verse on this song is the most slept on in hip-hop history...
Big facts the last part of the his verse is to cold
YESSIR …FACTS
It was the first thing I thought of that time Eminem came in on Forever, like I heard that before.
@@CarlosLopez-md1ei nah
Dump dump in the gut, raw from the giddy up
Better chose the right one or pick the kiddies up lol
There's a petition to make this song the national anthem
Peter David real hip hop
Where do I sign?
Shit I'll sign
Pen?
I’d vote
Big Boi never gets his props he bared up alongside the goat Andre and never sounded out of place guys a legend too
JayJay - and all his verses he’s kicking some real wise game in a slick ass way. Hella underrated.
facts
his is the best to me
Verse very underated
@No. Body preach my brother.
I come here every now and then to remember to keep my heart 3 stacks💯❗️💯😮💨
Amen🙏🏽
The last time ugk was together before pimp c death last time dj paul and juicy j was together and last time big boi and andre 3000 was together. 3 of the best down south groups...
herbert munn I miss this type of music
You are scaringly accurate. Damn.
3stacks and big boi are always together just not making music
Right
Chill everything going be great
I fondly remember sitting in my childhood bedroom, no responsibilities, no bills, no nothing; this playing on MTV Jams and everything else in that era. I wish I could go back to that time for just an hour. RIP Pimp C.
SMFH YOU AND ME BOTH ❤️❤️💔💔
Same except with way too much Cheeto dust on my fingers omg. These kids will never know the magic of MTV Jamz or Rap City!!!! Where’s the time machine :,(
Ikr 💜
The End of a Dynasty
This was played on 106 & Park in summer 2007
My favorite verse changes every time I listen to this classic. Each rapper spits such a vivid scenario and all are filled with Jewels. R.I.P Sweet Jones...
Mychal_ Corleone yep
"i'll show u shit u've never seen the seven wonders of the world and i can make u the 8th if u wanna b my girl"
2024 stilling bumping this hard. Used to bump this in a 99 neon In High school. Now Im Bumping In a benz. Lol
Greatest thing about Outkast was they always stayed true to their characters/personas. Andre is poetic and forgiving with a hint of savage while Big Boi is unapologetic and voices his baby mama and woman dramas with a "players" lens. Masterful verses from both of them.
That's a great point, very true.
Well said
Go ahead wit cha perfectly describing self. Great description playa.
Played this at my wedding...CLASSIC!!!!
Chris Cabcabin me too bro this was the song me and my groomsmen came out too
Me too
Good music
I hope “The Ex” didn’t go to the wedding. 😂
My cousin did also.
Andre 3000's part gives me chills. Like they should replace the national anthem with his verse from this song. 💯🔥
Pimp C hated Andre's part lol biy was he wrong.
Poetry at its finest!!
right lmao
Just something about each of their different sounds. Like a match made in heaven too. To think they were enemies in high school!
We’re all peninsulas
Imagine if UGK and Outkast did an album together.... RIP Pimp
Young thug really got the audacity to say he got no clue who he is and he never heard of him. This man a whole legend. True goat🐐💪🏽
Righttt how is he going to claim Atlanta without acknowledging one of the main legends from the A
💯
Not even on this level!!
Not a hip hop fan anymore but Andre 3k blew up Southern Hip Hop no disrespect to Big Boi sorry Big Boi and plus I’m from Georgia
@@niggato23 man no way. Lol outcast was both of them. A duo
T-Pain feeling that Holy Ghost.
Omg I just realized that was him after all these years 😭😭😭
I just noticed that for the 1st time
When was he on here lol

Its so crazy how back then some of us didnt realize how good this song actually is frl..Its 2016 and i be blasting this in the car period like ayeee..but r.i.p pimp c..

keelayzhia garcia you can say that again but it's good we have RUclips to give us flash backs on how good rap was
keelayzhia garcia page pimp got the best verse in this song if you ask me
Trent Pousson yes he do
you must not be from Texas or Georgia or just even the south in that matter...not throwing shade or nothing but we banged the hell out of this and we knew right away this was a classic first day it dropped
status210 no im from ohio
What a classic! Can’t believe this is almost 20 years old…i remember when this dropped; still feels like it just did
Today makes 13 years R.I.P PIMP C 🕊💕
Truth..played stuck on XM TODAY FRIDAY!!!

Kid rock
Long live Pimp C
Yeahp I was shooked when u heard he died
The beat switches up for each verse, so awesome. One of the best music videos ever too.
"Better choose the right one or pick, pick the kiddies up"...words of wisdom for all men out there, Lol...
RellBresci718 truth
we ain't choosing we tryna get chose💯
Darth Cannabis what exactly does this mean? Its my favorite part but never knew what it meant 😂. Kiddies as in several kids?
Antonio Winchester pick the kiddies up as in pick them up every weekend to spend time with there dad while they go back with their mom during the week
"Got your back like chiroprac....tic
July 2024 still 🔥🔥🔥
Outkast forever.
Don't care what anyone says, 3000's verse is top 10 all time
Andre 3k is a legend has has like 3 of the best verses in rap history
Fuckin agreed fam
sergio garcia what verses would those be?
Antonio Evans this one the one from aqumini (I think that's how you spell it) and the one from solo reprise
Chris Paul you forgot sorry ft TI

10 years later and it's officially safe to say this song got ROBBED at the 2008 Grammy's
who won that year?
Southside by Kanye and Common
thatonepimp69 WTF.. Mannnn..
thatonepimp69 I never even heard that song smh
Rob Kimbell It did get robbed.
the drop with pimp C is too smooth lmao
2019 still my shit
The energy they bring UGK🔥
Both UGK and OutKast were great, but that beat though, I can't even describe how perfect it is, I wish there was more of'em these days
One of, if not THE hardest Pimp verses ever, he killed this track.
Andre 3000 "3 Stacks" Benjamin!
Pimp always came hard imo, his usual talent is displayed more sophisticated here which makes this a solid way to show off how great he was
Big Boi gets ovelooked
@@tytytyme33 fax, Big Boi verse is my favorite. Gems throughout the whole verse!
I love his verse in Big Pimpin'.
I just turned 60 yrs old and this was definitely the song of the yr for me..I actually went to a wedding and they put this on and we lost it in the church house....That wedding was the the goat just like this cut.......period.....
Happy birthday OG! Salute!
Thxs love
Yall played it there yall hell🤞
Susan is a G!!!
Susan your to old for this song 😂
We still listening in 2024!!!❤😂
Over a decade later and this still hits as hard as it did back when I was playing it on an RCA mp3 player
Timeless this song ❤ Willie Hutch the original I chose you ❤

tf does L mean
+Emily J L
it's easy to say that Andre had the best verse but everybody really killed it on this. I honestly like big boi's verse the best
Personally I think Pimps verse is godly
+iamlarryjones jr. the best thing about pimp's verse is the beat dropping and how he rode it but lyrically I think his was the weakest. in my opinion it's big boi, Andre, bun then pimp.
+marvomarcus agree... Lotta ppl don't give Big Boi enough credit...
Big Boi's verse was absolute gospel!
There aren't many artists left from 93/94 that are still consistently putting out good music. He's stayed consistent and relevant throughout his career and knows how to move his crowds. His shows are all off the chain.
It was so good hearing this song again. This still sounds like a celebration.
Legends NEVER Die...2023 still listening 🔥🔥🔥
Amen 🙏🏾
Hold up mane
💯
Bro I can’t stop the beat smacking and the message is so real.
✨✨✨🎯🎯🎯
Who's still listening in 2020?!?!?
Still an anthem.
Classic
Shirley Gunn ME!!!!!!!'
YES LAWD!!
Yessir
“You know we got your back like chi-ro-prat-tic” if that wasn’t the coldest break down of all time
They all did great on this song, nobody sounded the same, their own style. Nobody was the weak link.
ONLY ANTHEM I'LL STAND FOR
Ya damn right
this one and the ruff Ryder's anthem
this one and the american national anthem
fuck the American anthem
leave the country then nobody wants ur negative broke asses here anyways lol
Irony: I think that Andre was the only one out of OutKast & UGK who wasn't married.
Facts 😂😂😂
Lol damn u right this is even more hilarious

@Hersey Berry No he didn't
lool
A young buck can learn a lot from this if he's not slow... Class definitely in session.
This a hunn'd proof and just as strong now as on day 1

Shit had me rolling listening to dis shit in da whip

I swear Bun murdered this hit
Mysti Shotwell amen
Can't accept anything less from Big bun.
This song is incredibly underrated! An absolute banger that's impossible not to vibe to.
Underrated how? This is literally one of the most celebrated rap collabs of the last 20 years lol
It ain't underated. If people slipping on it then they jus missed it. Ima play it
Only people who aint grew up on this say this is "underrated" lol this was one of THE hottest songs when it came out, and it STILL gets rotation in the south.
under appreciated perhaps, but not underrated. I was a teenager when this came out, my friends and I all loved hip hop, but I was the only one burning this track to CDs.
Outkast, UGK, and Three 6 Mafia the 3 most influential southern rap groups of all time on a classic song.
You must be young, your forgetting The Geto boys! They did it first in the 80’s they were the N.W.A of the south!!
@@Leftyone78 South Park Coalition, . Street Military, SUC, SPM, the south been spitting that real raw gangster shit since the 80s. If our OGs were from the East cost they would’ve been considered the best to ever do it. Yet we from The South and they still hate it. GB makes NWA rhymes look soft lol.

Damn man, when hip hop was real smooth. Now all we have is this wack ass trap shit with nights talking about pandas and one dances smh. I'm glad Cole, Kendrick and a few others still embrace pure hip-hop
Old man your crazy panda had nothing to do with being a panda it was about drugs money and girls you acting like this is bad back in the day hip hop was just like this music now talking about killing people...who really cares about hip hop.its like hip hop is life.there is other things than music.if you don't like the new music go back to watching your old music SMH

So much talent in one video. Definitely one of the best joints ever. Rip Pimp C. These new wave rappers cant even come close to getting on this level.
Without A Face that would be true but there are some rappers that can easily pass this.NF
