Chamillionaire Drops A New Mixtape Just Two Months After His Last One

J-Banks · 12-01-2008, 09:16 AM

Fifth time's a charm. Chamillionaire didn't wait long to follow-up Mixtape Messiah Four — it's been just two months, and part five is here.

"People got it twisted. Some people talk down on this culture like it's bad," he said. " 'Why are you doing little old mixtapes?' At this point, you gotta come back down to the ground level. That's where it's popping at. That's really what's happening. These are the real people out here that's supporting us. This is really what they want. The mixtapes never stopped. People still consume them if they bootlegging them, downloading online — people want them. The best way to talk to my fans is by putting out a mixtape."

Supporting his free product is awesome, but Cham says make sure you support his official LP Venom when it drops next year.

"It's scheduled to drop first quarter. I just dropped the first single, 'Creepin' (Solo)' — it's produced by DJ Montay," Cham added. "I actually wanted that single to come out — that's why I leaked that one. I wanted that song to dictate [the tone of the album]. Because it's a lot of people that think they know me when they don't. It's all about reinventing. I don't want to be stuck in no box, so I'm kinda going in a different direction. The Venom is the poisonous spider that bit me. They so used to this other guy, now you about to get this guy. This is some of my hardest music." ...

The division in Houston has traditionally been about personal squabbles, however, Slim Thug explains that red tape drove a wedge between him and his homies when they signed to major labels during the city's explosion four years ago.

"Everybody got deals," Thugger said. "It was good. They was signing everybody, but, at the same time, they kinda put salt in the game. They was separating us. It went from us being Houston to them trying to separate us. When I say 'them,' I mean the major labels. It's a lot of stuff y'all don't know about that made me hate major labels. I can do a verse for Cham and my people won't clear it to be on his album. Or I'll do something for Mike Jones or Paul Wall. I done verses for their albums, and they won't clear it 'cause they scared that they may have that 'Still Tippin' ' again, or they scared of them having a hit record rather than it be on mine. That ain't how it go. We grew up together, we all came up doing this music together — we need to keep it that way. Whoever gets it, gets it. [The labels] was driving us apart."

Well, Houston came together last Sunday during the "Best of Texas" concert at the Los Magnificos Car Show, and we were there. Check out some highlights here. In the words of Dave Chappelle acting as Rick James, "Unit-teeee!"

MM1,MM2,MM3 were all bangers and had the streets on lock.Then Cham released MM4 and it was just alrite.To me the bonus disc was better than the 1st disc.It had some good tracks but I hope he steps it up on MM5.He picks some wack beats to he needs to make some tracks over straight heat.
