5 Things I’ve Learned From Pimps • 09.24.08
You know the name of the game yo b*tch choose me. Every since I was a small boy I’ve been fascinated by pimps. Maybe it was the way my step dad wore his lime green suits, maybe it was just that my mom never let me watch the Dolomite movies she rented from Palmer’s Video store, but I’ve always been entertained by pimps. Yes that’s right pimps taught me a lot of love, sex and relationships.
5. Ice Berg Slim – I first read Robert Beck’s cult classic book when I was in 7th grade and an english teacher made us read books over the summer. I walked in to the book store not knowing my life was about to change. Back then there was only one shelf of African American books and what other title to buy other than “PIMP.” I got this book thinking it would teach me how to talk to women. I was wrong, but it did teach me that if you say something jazzy enough, slick enough and with enough charisma that women will like you. This book taught me that women like knowing you have other women. So I let them know I’m not on a one girl guy and the girls respected me for it.
4. The Fish – I’m Gonna Get You Sucka came on TV one day and there was dude walking around with gold fish in his shoes. I thought that was so cool. It was here that I learn that what you wear is equally as important as what you say and how you look.
3. Pipe em down – In all pimp pop culture they preach to pipe the trick down one good time and then give the D on your terms. Basically this taught me not to be a fiend for the p*ssy. So why I alway want it, I don’t always have to have it. And in turn the women give it to me more. Go figure.
