Harold The Pimp: Southern Pimpin’ In the 1980s - The Hustlers Archive

King Mar Season 4 Episode 1

Before Don “Magic” Juan had the spotlight up in Chicago or them slick-talking players out West, there was Harold — the quiet legend of Dallas. Southern pimpin’ in the 80s had its own rhythm, its own rules, and Harold played the game like a gentleman with a razor’s edge.

This rare footage comes straight from The Hustlers Archives — filmed by Tommy D back in 1983 when he was following Harold through Oak Cliff and South Dallas. No scripts, no filters, just real street sociology. The cars, the conversation, the code — all captured on tape before the world started glamorizing what they never lived.

This ain’t about glorifying the game. It’s about preserving a piece of history most people never saw. A time when talk was slick, respect was currency, and every night told a story.
