Supple and engrossing, a liquid-smooth street-rap testimonial.
Entertaining, disturbing, sad, outrageous and often hilarious.
Alternately mind-expanding and brain-numbing.
Most of American Pimp feels like you've been slipped a Mickey.
One gets a pungent look at what makes being a pimp look attractive to some people in certain circumstances.
Fascinating, partly because of its originality.
Appalling because it never transcends its adolescent-boy glee at being allowed entry to the highly sexualized arena of prostitution.
