I saw Chamillionaire and Lil’ Flip a while back at BB King’s. Here are the top 5 things that happened there but I have yet to see happen at a rock show:

1. Cham rapped most of his show over a DAT tape with his voice, although filtered, still present in the recording. I guess he could not track down the instrumentals. So with the recording, the hype man, and Cham all rapping at the same time, the lyrics were garbled in the more intricate lines.

2. There were a bunch of dudes and a girl who just stood on stage and didn’t do anything. Swing a towel, mess with their phone, or mouth the lyrics maybe. Bringing your crew along on tour is nothing new but it has to be expensive.

3. Cham threw out a fat wad of cash into the crowd. The bills were new and stuck together. My buddy caught a stack, which paid for his ticket, and the bills were in sequence.

4. Because Cham and Flip wanted to play all their hits, we heard few songs from their album. Instead, we heard their singles and all their guest verses on other people’s hit songs. The beat would drop and you would be like oh right they’re on this song.

5. Have you ever been at a concert and said, “Damn, I wish I could hear that again.” Well because they both rap on a few of the same songs, we heard some songs twice. “Ridin’ Dirty” was the hit of the night. Cham finished his set with it and so did Lil’ Flip, but the second time around Cham came back out for his verse.

All in all it was pretty crazy but I have seen better rap shows. Check out Just Sayin for some more thoughts on the show.
