Pimp C's Cause of Death Revealed

The Los Angeles County Coroner’s office has revealed that prescription cough syrum and sleep apnea contributed to the untimely death of UGK member Chad “Pimp C” Butler. Assistant chief coroner Ed Winter made it clear that the rapper did not overdose, but instead died from ingesting “Promethazine and Codeine,” which is frequently mixed with flavored candy and mixed to make a drink known as “sizzurp.” [ Anyone remember 8-Ball's hit single "Sippin' on some Sizzurp? ] Winter also stated Pimp C suffered from a condition known as sleep apnea, a common sleeping disorder that blocks the air passages during sleep, and causes people to temporarily stop breathing. The prescription cough syrup mixed addition to his sleep apnea, ended in Pimp C’s accidental death.

    I appreciate your research on this matter. For just being a white girl that grew up like a rat, UGK been my favorite rappers since I was like 19 – - that’s 15 years ago! I have all their stuff & I still kick that “Ridin Dirty” CD over & over.

    I have a website and I want to build a “cemetary” type page with people in it I wish to pay tribute to. May I have a link I can add to my page so that under his picture I can refer my clients who are interested to his cause of deatch? I would really appreciate a response!
