According to Webtender the recipe for a "Pimp Cocktail" is as follows:

For those out there that enjoy an adult beverage from time to time, try this the next time you are at the club. Instead of ordering your favorite spirit "on the rocks", next time order it with "bling".

For example: If you are like me and your beverage of choice happens to be Crown Royal (preferably Crown Reserve or Cask 16) you would order a "Crown n' Bling". When the bartender looks at you funny, clue him in that it's Crown on Ice, then let him know that the first one should be compt for bartending lesson.

Way doper than the Warren G show here in Phoenix a few months ago. I guess huge LED marijuana leaves make everything a little more Prime Pimpin.

This last week the Associated Press reported on how rappers are toning down the bling so commonly seen across the industry, you can check out the article here.

With 12 Grammy nominations, 26 awards won including "best rapper" and "artist of the year", not to mention millions of album sales, 25+ movie roles, and according to Wikipedia a "Snoop Dogg 40 Oz Malt liquor" that I can't wait to try if it exists....we all know that Snoop Dogg is a pimp.

The Prime Pimpin Book Version:

I have lived in Phoenix for 8 years now, and I am sad to say that last night was my first experience with First Friday. For those unfamiliar, first Friday is an event that is organized by a nonprofit organization named Artlink and takes place the first Friday of every month in Phoenix, AZ. Their goal is to bring "...together artists, the public, and businesses for a greater understanding, appreciation, and promotion of the arts and the development of a strong and vital downtown Phoenix arts community."

Yeah he's not from Phoenix, but he's damn close, and we do have to say that Snoop is Prime Pimpin all the time. With the new song "Snoop Dogg Millionare" produced by Wild Animals and Chase & Status he's pushing the envelope further in a direction I'm sure everyone will follow. Here's the "music video slideshow".

Russ and I opened the online store in late 2008 with a vision to bring Pimpin to the masses. Now we aren't talking about the type of pimp that stands on the corner and smacks their hoes around all day. We are smart enough to realize that we have no right, nor would we have any idea on how to begin to bring that type of pimpin to the masses.

Locally grown and ready to blow up check out a great interview/article on rapper and producer from DTP, Willy Northpole: http://musicremedy.com/w/Willy_Northpole/album/Tha_Connect-5433.html

Hope to see you all there. His new album is scheduled to drop June 2nd, Prime Pimpin without a doubt.

I wish Joaquin would either blow up as a hip-hop artist or cut it out with trying to be a rapper:

He is seriously messing up our Google search results for "Phoenix hip-hop".
