"PimpJuice" is a single by the rapper Nelly, released in 2003, from the 2002 album Nellyville. This song did not achieve the commercial success of hits such as "Hot in Herre", "Dilemma", and "Work It"; it topped out at #58 on the Billboard Hot 100.[1]

[edit] Controversy

The song received backlash for its apparent glorification of prostitution. In 2004, students at Spelman College, the historically Black women's college in Atlanta, protested Nelly's bone-marrow drive -- which he had started after discovering his sister had been diagnosed with leukemia.[2]
