Speaking on this exhibit, E.S.G. said, “It was something about Fat Pat, the whole lingo … there may be other people who created other things but the lingo of the Screwed Up Click and the Southside of Houston came from Fat Pat.”
He added, “I remember telling HAWK, “Man, we can rap and make money off of this. HAWK told me, ‘Man, I just do it for fun!’ Those are the big brothers of SUC.”
The exhibit, curated by Julie Grob invited contributors from across the sphere to mark anecdotes of their favorite member of the SUC or vital part of the history of the group. The exhibit is located at the MD Anderson Library on campus and will be on display until December 14th.
