Charles Hamilton



Charles Hamilton is an artist from Harlem, New York with a sound that reminds me of a Pharcyde type flow with a Lupe Fiasco type sensibility. He is cousins with Legendary artist MC Lyte and rolls in circles with Kanye West and The Game. On top of that some of the games greats have noticed this kid such as Eminem, Pharrell, Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park, DJ Quik, and even Lionel Richie. His debut single is called Brooklyn Girls but you can also check his SOB freestye against Serius Jones.

He's quoted as saying
“To me, it’s not fanaticism: I take it dead serious. People laugh like, ‘Yo that was a fun game,’ but to me it’s a philosophy I came up with over time. Hedgehogs bury themselves under the ground, and sonic means ‘sound.’ So I bury myself in the sound of music, because other than that I’d have nothing. And because I stay in a positive zone, which is a state of mind, I feel that I can do anything that lives forever. It’s more than just than [hums theme song], it’s how I look at life. It sucks how people think it’s just a gimmick, kind of like the whole ‘pink’ thing. I feel like God is a woman, and pink is the color of life since pink is the color of the inside of the woman’s womb. And it takes a man to enter a woman in order to create life, and – of course – a woman had to create a man, so God is a woman.

Now i like this guy
