August 31, 2009 Mixtape Monday
Charles Hamilton and DJ Green Lantern- Outside Looking
Charles Hamilton if you haven't heard, is a very talented new rapper coming out. He's had many mixtape releases and is signed to Interscope Records. The funny thing is you might have heard him because he might be one of the biggest haters in hip hop, but I mean the dude can talk that stuff so I gotta give him credit. From calling out Rhymefest to telling everyone stop comparing him to soulja boy because they are on the same label and stuff, he's done his fair share of talking. But the dude can rap, and is very different from the pink clothes to Sonic the Hedgehog persona he's adopted. He has his Brooklyn Girls song which is his single, Don't Touch Me produced by 9th wonder, and November 10th where he uses a Sonic the Hedgehog video game song and spits on it. Hey he's dope, he can rap, and the mixtape is pretty good so regardless of the other stuff it's kind of refreshing to hear from a major label artist.
