Chamillionaire has recently been getting a lot of media attention from the likes of TMZ and Perez Hilton for the Houston rapper’s so-called “business decision” to let his Houston-area house go into foreclosure – or, more accurately, to take no action to prevent it from being foreclosed on.
Who knew a rapper’s troubles with Fannie Mae would rate almost as much tabloid interest as Joran Van der Sloot or Lindsay Lohan’s (latest) relapse? Is it the economic crisis?
Anyway, Cham – who appeared on VH1’s Hip Hop Honors salute to the “Dirty South” Monday – had decided to take control of this curious news cycle the best way he knows how. Tonight at 7 p.m., he’ll appear on www.ustream.tv, and the Mixtape Messiah has already dropped a freestyle track to preview this little e-press conference.
Rocks Off’s favorite line is “Don’t have a cow, and get your tubes tied/ Tune in, I’ll be u-streamin’ toniiiiight.”
You tell ’em, Cham.
