i'm not sure.... ...i don't think so...i just think his first album was him doing alot of things different... picture perfect feat bun b was like old school cham to me...and my fav song on the cd by far... and his new single is def not mainstream to me...so i guess the jury is still out... officially i think he can turn it on when he wants to...and he caught alot of shit for his last album...so i think he will bring it alot more on this one... i feel it. that's the thing about rating MC's though.... what one person says is going to come across a lot differently to people from different backgrounds. But that's the beauty of hip-hop IMO, it is what the person listening chooses to take out of it that makes it dope. Who gives a fuck what other people think? even if some hip-hop encyclopedia know-it-all says your wack, that person doesn't really know shit if they haven't walked in the same shoes. as for chamillionaire... i admit to not knowing a damn thing about him besides that ridin dirty track, which was probably one of the worst beats i've ever heard. And i just can't get over his name. i mean come on, chamillionaire?
