Chamillionaire Brushes Off 50 Cent's Comments

By: Yves Erwin Salomon

Rapper Chamillionaire was recently at the receiving end of some negative comments by 50 Cent. The Houston rapper is keeping his forthcoming album free of profanity, which didn't sit well with the G-Unit general. 50 Cent told Spin magazine, "Let him (Chamillionaire) go sell gospel records, if he's so f***in'righteous. I can write around the curses if I want to, but you can't tell me to write around the curses."

In the past, Chamillionaire has used negative comments and negative press to his advantage. The rapper explained: "When I first came out I was so mad, I was opening magazines and they were saying stuff about me. I was like, 'Don't they know I got a purpose? I'm not cursing, smoking, drinking, killing everybody on these records and they're trying to bash me.'And I was so mad at them."

The rapper added: "But then again, if they wouldn't have done that then I wouldn't have worked as hard as I did to get to where I'm at. You know I was mad, everyday I was waking up like, 'Nah I'mma show them.'"

In related news, Chamillionaire recently made the Mixtape Messiah 3 and the Mixtape Messiah DVD available for free download at his website.

The rapper will release his new album, Ultimate Victory, on September 18th. The latest single from the project is "Hip Hop Police" featuring Slick Rick. The album will also feature guest appearances by Lil Wayne, Krayzie Bone, Pimp C, Lloyd, Famous and Devin the Dude.
