Chamillionaire Sound of Revenge goes platinum

It’s official Chamillionaire’s debut album, Sound of Revenge, has gone platinum and Cham is ready to celebrate. He has announced that he will be throwing an A-List party in New York City on June 5, 2007. I wonder who that A-list includes?

Chamillionaire has earned his first #1 record which is something that fellow Houston rappers Mike Jones, Paul Wall, and Slim Thug, are still trying to accomplish. “Ridin’ Dirty” featuring Krayzie Bone went to Number One on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart this week. The song was aided by several regional remixes which included guest vocals form UGK, E-40, Papoose, and Jae Millz.

Chamillionaire’s album continues to move 35,000 copies a week. Congrats to Chamillionaire for doing his thing and making it this far. I will be waiting to see what he comes out with next.

Dallas students suspended over lyrics

Right at a time where the hip-hop culture has already been cast in a bad light (after the Don Imus fiasco), a new incident in Dallas has caused even further uproar about the lyrics of rappers. A group of male students at Hillcrest High School in Dallas are facing suspension, after they recorded a song that degraded various girls in the school. The song labeled every girl who goes to ‘Crest’ as a ‘slut’ and called various female students out by name.

“I done f***, I done f***, every girl who goes to ‘Crest is a slut,” reads one line from the song.
Another even called girls by name. “Laura, Keisha, Dee Dee, Janeesha.”

The song is called “Hillcrest” and the group calls themselves the Hillcrest All-Stars. The students passed out copies of the song on CD for the other students, and put the song up on their MySpace pages.

“I’m not a ho. I’m not a slut. I’ve never done anything like that,” Hillcrest High School student Lakeisha Till told CBS 11 News. “You don’t have proof I’ve done anything like that, to put it on a song, and then say my name.”

The spokesman for the Dallas Independent School District, Jon Dahlander, responded by saying that the students may have violated the student conduct code by circulating the recorded song around the high school and also by posting it on their MySpace pages (their conduct code deals with MySpace?).

“If you’re going to say something derogatory to anybody, regardless if it’s a students or teacher or anyone, we need to step in and take the appropriate action at that point.”

Lil Flip responds to VT shooting with freestyle

By now, I am sure that all of you know of the horrific and violent events that happened on April 16, 2007 at Virginia Tech university in Blacksburg, VA. Houston rapper Lil Flip has released his freestyle response to the victims and all of those who are suffering.

As foul-mouthed and explicit as rappers may be in their lyrics sometimes, they still are aware of what is going on. Congratulations to Flip for taking the time out to reflect on the situation America has been plagued with for the past week. Its on YouTube, its not a video, but who cares? … It is worth listening to anyway.
