Dubbed "the Mixtape Messiah," Houston's Chamillionaire arrived late as a major-label creative person during his city's 2005 takeover of mainstream rap -- the Top Ten Good of Revenge, released during November that year, followed albums from Mike Jones, Slim Thug, and late Color Changin' Click mate Paul Wall -- only he had already reinforced a firm following remote the South and received substantial print coverage. Through a prolific successiveness of mixtapes, Chamillionaire (born Hakeem Sediki) became known for his deep, various voice (he sings his possess meat hooks very effectively) and lyrical ability. Originally part of Swishahouse, he switched to Paid in Full, where he and Paul Wall collaborated on 2002's Scram Ya Mind Correct -- an album that sold C,000 copies. Prior to inking his deal with Universal, he founded the Chamilitary label and began grooming the careers of brother Rasaq and 50/50 Twin. "Ridin'," off The Sound of Revenge, reached the tip of the Billboard singles chart and was later nominative for a couple of Grammy Awards. The follow-up to Revenge, coroneted Ultimate Victory, was released in September 2007.
