Houston Rapper Set To Hit Road With Lil’ Flip On Texas Boyz Tour
New York, NY – Universal Records recording artist and Houston based hip-hop star Chamillionaire has announced a Texas Boyz Tour with fellow Houston native Lil’ Flip, continuing the ride on the unprecedented success of his major label debut album, The Sound Of Revenge. The second single “Ridin,” featuring Krayzie Bone from Chamillionaire’s gold selling album was recently the #2 most added song at Rhythm Crossover radio and is rocketing up the Rhythm Crossover Mediabase chart.
The much-anticipated tour, which kicks off in San Diego on March 30th, will run through Las Vegas, New York, Detroit and Atlanta among other cities, thrilling Chamillionaire fans in nearly 30 cities before winding up early this summer. Since the fall, of his 2005 release momentum has been building for Chamillionaire‘s The Sound Of Revenge. The mesmerizing “Turn It Up,” featuring Lil’ Flip, garnered an amazing combined radio audience of over 30 million listeners, becoming a ‘top-played’ anthem at rhythm crossover and urban radio across the U.S. The popular video also received tremendous support from BET and MTV, snaring the prestigious #1 most played video slot on BET, and enjoying unparalleled Top 10 rotation for a new artist. The video for “Ridin” will debut on MTV 2 “Hip-Hop” the week of March 13th with Chamillionaire making a personal appearance as host of the show.
Chamillionaire’s emergence as the music world’s hottest new hip-hop hitmaker has also been confirmed by The Sound Of Revenge’s #10 debut on Billboard’s Top Album’s chart upon its release, with nationally syndicated tomes such as Rolling Stone (who gave the new disc 3 and a half stars) raving: “He’s the next superstar in Houston’s hip hop takeover.”
The album, which features a top-tier roster of acclaimed producers and guest-artists, such as Kool & Dre (The Game), Scott Storch (50 Cent), David Banner, Mannie Fresh, and The Beat Bullies (Big Boi/Outkast), is nearing platinum, becoming one of the most successful hip hop debuts of the year.
