Don Magic Juan's Annual Birthday and Players' Ball- Chicago
Bootsy Collins stood tall at this year's Players' Ball. Literally, Bootsy's about 6'5," without the foot tall leopard hat. And no one rocks the shoulder pad jacket like Bootsy, who was presented with an honorary Player award and helped Bishop Don Magic Juan present trophies for Most Improved Player, Most Valuable Player, Best Young Player, Best Female Player, etc.
The pimp walk, you either got it or you don't and clearly Pimp Chicago has it. The glass of Courvoisier is the feather in the cap. Fellow pimps stand back to admire, like the dance line in Soul Train.
The Bulls DYNASTY, part deux. King Burrell works the toothpick, keeps his head up.

One dope fur deserves another. For many of the pimps and associates like King Bert, Scorpio and King James, The Players' Ball is one of the few occasions where both coasts and the Midwest are all gathered under one roof.
All Snoop, all night, with the occasional James Brown and P-Funk interspersed for good measure. Drop It Likes It's Hot, indeed. The woman at coat check saw no action, like the 12th man on the bench. Scorpio on the dance floor.
The legendary Dolemite performed an original song (dedicated to the memory of Ray Charles) as White Folks, aptly representing white folks, stands in the back.
Everyone knows Lightning but who is that beautiful woman standing next to him and is her lipstick purposefully matched to his jacket?
Now you know, President ain't playing with you fools no more. His pinky globe is geographical
Clear the space above the fireplace, King Bean happily accepts a trophy in recognition for yet another successful year of pimping. The General looks on.
Ms. Fern laughs.

The birthday boy - Arch Bishop Don Magic Juan presiding.
With so many pimps and politicians in the world, why is Arch Bishop Don Magic Juan the arch and the don? He is the master of the media machine, television cameras follow his every move, like Puffy and J. Lo rolled into one. Magic also has a clothing line debuting soon, as seen on his partner's t-shirt. CHUUUUCH?

Yet another pimp photo, cane forward, chalice up, hair down, fur hat cocked.
One word: Money (Pimp).
Making the scene - green on green on green

Minister Seamore's (Far Right in blue suit and white hat) production company True Famous Players Promotions and Management Inc. hosts the annual Meet and Greet at South Side Chicago's legendary Cotton Club the night before The Players' Ball. The Meet and Greet is an opportunity for pimps, peers and friends to reminisce and talk business without the hordes and chaos that defines the hectic Players' Ball.
