On this legendary night where a group like Three-Six Mafia won an Oscar for "It's Hard Out here for a Pimp"

I really expected Richard to have the biggest pop from the audience for the celebrities who are no longer with us.

I think the Academy did too, As they saved him for alst and gave him the most time.

Two great actresses Shelley Winetrs and Anne Bancroft deservedly got the biggest cheers from the audience. But for Richard was just a few quiet claps.

I really thought he'd get some recognition from his peers like Brando got last year.

That's right!!!!!

BIG UPS to 3-SIX Mafia!!!
Representing all the pimps, playas, gangsta's, hustlers, ballers and shot callers out here!

Some may not think the song realtes to them, saying "I am not a PIMP", but anybody out there on the grind everyday, trying to keep their head above the water is a PIMP. Whether you are pimping your job, your husband, or wife, the welfare, unemployment, workers comp----> you are a pimp. If you ass is nit getting any money.....then you are not one, at all. Word.

Visitor,

I think there was something in the water that everyone was drinking except for 3-6 Mafia. I think they had to wake people up to just before the camera showed their faces.
