Procuring or pandering is the facilitation or provision of a prostitute in the arrangement of a sex act with a customer.[1] Examples of procuring include:
- trafficking a prostitute into a country for the purpose of soliciting sex
- operating a prostitution business
- transporting a prostitute to the location of their arrangement
Criminal laws forbidding the procurement of prostitutes also would outlaw the importuning of the customer.
Pandering is one form of procuring. In most places where prostitution is illegal, so is procuring, whether the relationship between the procurer and prostitute is formal or informal.
In California, pandering is a crime under section 266i of the State's Penal Code.

Pimpin' (song)
"Pimpin'" is a song by American rapper Tony Yayo, included as a track on his debut studio album Thoughts of a Predicate Felon (2005). The song's production was handled by record producer LT Moe, who also helped in the writing process with Yayo. Musically, "Pimpin'" is a rap song expressing Yayo's desire to be able to legally pimp women. It is backed by an upbeat, "bouncy" production containing elements of digital guitar.
"Pimpin'" received generally mixed reviews from music critics: although some praised the song's upbeat production, others called the song "bland" when compared to Yayo's previous work, which typically covers a darker subject matter. Despite not being released as a single, the song received considerable airplay on US urban contemporary radio stations, which resulted in the song charting at number sixty-six on the US Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. An accompanying music video was filmed for the song, directed by production group Fat Cats.

Pimpin
by: Keziah JonesI would like to think
That i was there
In the very beginning
Whitout me
There wouldn't be
No nigerians for you
to know
in the formless chaos
I would be doing our bidding
Extrapolating problems
From the one and only zero
CHORUS
Oh ho
remember me
I'm pimping the background of
Sorrow
Yeah that's me
From a million miles of space
Is where you'll find me
Singing
Yoruba songs of navigation
For you to sing and play
and follow
all time i'll streche and bend
and mend for you at a single sitting
i'll measure you up and down
just like a black vogue model
CHORUS
BRIDGE
The songs we sing today
we'll pimp tomorrow
we'll just smile and say
we're pimps of sorrow
I'd like to think that you'll be there
with our space and time ending
Without you, there wouldn't
be no Black Americans for me
to know
in the formless chaos
You would be doing their bidding

the one and only machine
