Chamillionaire Biography
Review The Artist (24)
Source: http://www.chamillionaireonline.com
The Truth King Koopa a.k.a the Chamillinater, started off in Screwston, Tx (houston, tx) in the late 1990s dropping many freestyle albums and mixtapes. The mixtapes were made for the nawf side of H-town and were backed by the Swishahouse and Michael "5000" Watts. The southside had Screw (R.I.P.) and the rest of the S.U.C. During the late 1990s you might have heard Chamillionaire on plenty of tracks with other Houston recording artists Paul Wall, as well as other artist from the old Color Changin Click (including, 50/50 Twin, Lew Hawk, Yung Ro), and such artist from the Swishahouse crew as well (Big Tiger, Slim Thugg, Mista Masta Archie Lee, etc.). Chamillionaire also wrecked with other crew and artist from the southside like Lil FLip, Lil Keke, E.S.G., and some artist from the Wreckshop Records label and the well known Port Arthur rappers UGK. Upon releasing mixtape after mixtape on the underground scene, Chamillionaire teamed up with record label Paid In Full dropping his most known full length album ever entitled 'Get Your Mind Correct' with Paul Wall. This album sold tons and tons of copies over the time after its release and was very succesful with no major label backing it. This album can now be found in stores nation wide and is still selling copies. Chamillionaire promoted this album himself spending his own money to market this album, money he made from other mixtapes before and after the album. Now there is a huge contreversy between Chamillionaire and Paid in Full (paid in partial records) because they have with held money from Chamillionaire from the 'Get Your Mind Correct' album. Money that was guarnteed to Chamill by contract upon pre-release of the album. Chamillionaire went on to continue making mixtapes and even dropping his greates hits album. The mixtapes after that started into his beef with who Mike Jones on the 3 disc 'Mixtape Messiah' underground mixtape compillation. Chamillionaire then went to release 'The Truth' a mixtape with DJ Whookid followed by the album 'Chamilitary'. The albums 'The Truth' and 'Chamilitary' were underground albums were Chaillionaire really shows his rhyming abilities and proves he is the "Truest To Do It" by switching up his major debut, under Universal Records, from 'Contreversy Sells' to "The Sound of Revenge'. He switched the album title due to the contreversy with Paid in Partial records when that label thought they could be sneaky and released a compilation entitled 'Contreversy Sells' featuring Chamillionaire and Paul Wall, but had songs by mostly Chamillionaire. This album released by Paid in Partial records was vocals pasted over beats from Chamillionaire (vocals that you can hear from the 'Mixtape Messiah', and other mixtapes that were released before 'Contreversy Sells' was released). So in other don't be fooled by this company Paid in Full records, 'Contreversy Sells', is not a Chamillionaire production don't buy it. Instead purchase 'Chamilitary' or other lps listed below. Chamillionaire blew up upon his signing of himself along with his label Chamilitary to Universal Records. His Chamilitary record label includes artist such as, 50/50 twin and his brother Rasaq (boy). In fall 2005 the long awaited 'The Sound of Revenge' lp was finally released as another Houston artist hits the rap scene in a major way with the album backed by Universal Records with radio play as well as video play. The video entitled "turn it up", has been and still is on MTV and BET. Go to www.chamillionaire.com to vote for it.

Not your typical shoot 'em up music. Got to love the message and the beats. He sings about his life, and his struggles with an intensity and integrity that rings true. Lovin it; pure and simple.
CHAM... THE KING? Ya know hat fo' sho ly | Reviewer: ZtothaD | 3/26/2008
YO da yo ZtothaD back gain..Koopa's still killin' it...Real quick before i go off on Cham bein the King (which ain't even a question)...To answer ya'll wonderin if Cham is fom Nigeria, as far as I know, he not...Listen to his albums "My father's a muslim, my moms' is a christian the bible or the Kawan which one will I be pickin..His real name is Hakeem and he repersents H-TOWN to the fullest ya know..Does anyone realize how ahead of his time Koopa is..I mean Wayne bangs the decks with Lilweezyana style; but Chamill wrecks all the time in his own way, own style...just by listening to his records you can hear bout struggle and rising over adversity, also hear positive notes and the wisdom he portrays in his songs can teach people a thing or two...he then switches his style in "Groupie Love" to name most of the hottest artist out there shoutin out props and payin respect with dues...He can talk about ballin full of imagery and rises above any envy (with NO BITCH ASSNESS [like diddy say] what so ever in any aspect of his lyrical content or life.. He does this by shoutin out respect to everyone..he cleared up his beefs and is FOCUSED on CHAM...But I'm serious listen for the wisdom, I am not even jokin with that...Chamilitary MAAN!

Colorful Lyirc | Reviewer: Marc | 2/12/2008
Chamillionaire shuld b considered on of the industries rawest rappers. His colorful lyrics leave him standing in a group of some of the industries greatest lyrists to the date. He is company with rappers like Lil' Wayne, Jay-z, Naz, Fabolous, Bun B, T.I, and Eminem. This is a hard crowd to b a part of and Chamillionaire has earned every right to be in it. Not only do his lyrics paint a vibrant picture, they also dnt have derrogartory terms, such as the N word. Chamillionaire, you keep duin wat you duin and i wil keep admiring you for the lyrists that you are.
