The Pimps aren't bound to any single genre. Music will reflect that. Kids are hipper now. They have access to more information. There's so much around.
People have so much access to music.
But for many bands like The Pimps, the two genres that inspired them in the late '80s were hip-hop and metal. That's when hip-hop started to emerge. It's just natural we would blend it into music. What I want to see is when country merges with hip-hop. Though the band members bonded, Johnson admits, at a Van Halen concert in the late '80s, other types of music have also sparked their imaginations.
