I think Cham shot himself in the foot when he came out and said he was gonna stop cursing on albums. That plus he dropped Ultimate Victory a week after that Graduation/Curtis album battle it kinda became an afterthought. Also thought he should've went with Pimp Mode as the lead single off of UV instead of hip hop police

I always thought it was corny that he stopped cursing because of the Don Imus situation. If you want to stop cursing because you want too, cool, but to stop cursing because people were blaming rap music for there mistakes was lame

One of my all-time favorite MC's....Sound Of Revenge is a personal classic and the original mixtape messiah is a classic as well. Til this day, its insane that he blew up the way he did and had a #1 record. He also has one of the best Post-rap careers....Cham is making more money than ever. A true role model

Me and my cousin was huge fans.....

Chamillionaire was and still is one of my favorites. Dude was way nicer than people gave him credit for. He was bundled up with other terrible southern cats so he never got his proper shine. Dude had one of the best flows out there.

I fukk with Chamillionaire and the CCC hard but this is a true statement.
yeah i was a huge cham stan but by the time he was dropping that 2nd album it was pretty much over for him. he tried to recreate Ridin Dirty again...and he tried to get all conscious(he already was, guess he didnt realize it) and take away the cuss words by replacing them with little kid versions(eff instead of fukk, smh)...shyt just came off as corny


also he put out A LOT of music so by the time that 2nd album came out he was prob burned out...and to think he never really stopped putting out music either.

GYMC and MM2 are classics for me.

I'll always have love for Cham. He fell off hard after SoR, though. And now with guys like Future and Drake who seemingly have this singing-rap shyt in a vice grip, he'll never get the credit he deserves.
