We hope you caught this one because they made history tonight for Houston, Memphis, and Hip Hop.
Thankfully, tonight’s performance wasn’t behind a paywall as tens of thousands of people tuned in to watch 8Ball and MJG link up with UGK, or Bun B as we lost Pimp C in 2007.
Fans flooded social media about this matchup as Memphis and Houston collided to revisit some of our favorite tracks from both collectives. There was an outpouring of love for Pimp C throughout the show and everyone took time to also send their condolences to the lives recently lost in the Uvalde, Robb Elementary School shooting.
Yet, it wasn’t a mournful performance, at all. The groups and in-house fans turned up, and there were several guests who showed face including Big Boi, Sleepy Brown, David Banner, Jazzy Phae, and Twista. This was quite the way to usher in Memorial Day Weekend as the South was celebrated for its overflowing, iconic contributions to the history of Hip Hop.
Read through a few reactions to this Verzuz below and let us know if you tuned in.
