History of the Bay Episode 71: Fillmore Slim is respected worldwide as the Godfather of the Game. Growing up in Jim Crow-era Louisiana, Slim moved to California for a better life. Although he went to the prestigious Lowell High School and played in blues bands, he was attracted to the nightlife of Fillmore Street and entered into the pimp game. As a musician and a player, Slim came across the likes of Etta James, Ike and Tina, SF Mayors Willie Brown and London Breed, and rappers like Snoop Dogg and Suga Free. His experience in the entertainment industry includes being friends with Rudy Ray Moore aka Dolemite and turning down the lead in "The Mack."
