50 Cent – P.I.M.P.: No Cadillacs, No Perms & Gav Gets Folded

Jul 20

This week, the boys take on P.I.M.P. by 50 Cent — a song that somehow turns sex trafficking, expensive shoes, summer chinchilla sales and refusing to hand over a dollar into one of the catchiest tracks of the 2000s.

They break down the confusing pimp-or-John storyline, 50’s endless list of feuds, the weirdest lyric in the song, his Vitaminwater payday, and whether Dr. Dre was right to kill P.I.M.P. Part 2 before it saw the light of day.

Plus: Gav gets spun on the fight wheel and has to face peak Get Rich or Die Tryin’ era 50 Cent.
