Synopsis

In the gritty and soulful streets of Port Arthur, Texas, a musical revolution began. Underground Kings: The UGK Story is a raw and unflinching biopic miniseries chronicling the meteoric rise, profound struggles, and lasting legacy of one of hip-hop’s most influential duos: Chad “Pimp C” Butler and Bernard “Bun B” Freeman. Over six powerful episodes, the series delves into the personal and professional lives of Pimp C and Bun B, who brought Southern rap to the forefront of the music industry with their unrelenting authenticity and groundbreaking sound. From their humble beginnings in a small Texas town to becoming pioneers of the “Dirty South” movement, the series captures their indomitable spirit and the obstacles they faced navigating an industry dominated by East and West Coast giants. The story also explores the duo’s personal trials: Pimp C’s tragic battles with incarceration and addiction, Bun B’s fight to keep their legacy alive during Pimp’s absence, and the brotherhood that held them together through it all. Alongside their story, the series shines a light on the cultural and social dynamics of the South in the '90s, showcasing how UGK became the voice of a generation often overlooked.
