CNN Pronunciation Fail – What’s a “Shamillionaire”?

CNN anchor Tom Dubois Don Lemon invited Jeff Lange (aka DigiJeff) to discuss a bet he waged with Chamillionaire. Apparently, DigiJeff told Chamillionaire he’d jump off a plane if Cham’s single “Good Morning” reached #1 on iTunes. Problem is, Lemon couldn’t get the name right and no one bothered to correct his pronunciation cues. This is the same guy that called Nas a gangsta rapper just weeks ago. Don Lemon needs to add hip-hop to his music diet if he insists on discussing rappers on his show. It doesn’t hurt to familiarize yourself with the subject you’re reporting on. Isn’t that what news organizations are supposed to do? Oh wait, CNN isn’t news either, it’s entertainment.

Smarten up, Rappers

In case you’re wondering why Chamillionaire always ends up on Forbes’ Hip-Hop Cash Kings list without selling a crazy amount of records, this video offers some insight. It’s worth noting that Cham had an unlikely advantage, seeing as he was already raking in revenue from his lucrative car customization business, Fly Rides, prior to his breakout in ‘05. He simply used hip-hop as a launchpad to catapult himself to the next level. When he got there, he diversified his ventures further. That might explain why the lackadaisical chart performance of his brilliant sophomore album didn’t rattle him too much.

Chamillionaire – Good Morning

Chamillionaire

Download – Chamillionaire – Good Morning [mp3]

We already knew that Chamillionaire could rap circles around some of his peers. He’s even better at crafting melodies. But when he switches to comical mode, he’s straight up deadly. I despise the term “hater” but “Good Morning” had me rolling.

Chamillionaire – Creepin’ (Solo) (Ft. The Game & Ludacris)


Chamillionaire – Creepin’ (Solo) Remix (Feat. The Game & Ludacris)

Slumdog Chamillionaire joins forces with Jayceon Taylor for a remix of “Creepin’ Solo,” while flexin’ his quadruple-lingual skills. Marginally better than the OG version. Koopa’s third entry, Venom, is set to drop sometime this year. I think.

[Props to the indomitable OGPR]
