In case you've been living under a rock for the past few months, "Ridin'," Chamillionaire's catchy collabo with Krayzie Bone (yup, that Krayzie Bone) has been riding the top of the charts for a minute now. The Sound of Revenge, his Paul Wall diss masqueraded as an album, has also started teetering on the brink of platinum. But, the self-proclaimed "Mixtape Messiah" isn't having it easy after talking bad about Houston Police Department on "Ridin."
"My face is on the side of the bus real big," Cham told MTV. "The cops brought out the dogs and everything. They were asking for me. I guess they was really talking trash. They didn't find nothing. They tore the whole bus apart. They said that normally when they take somebody to jail, they play Afroman's 'Because I Got High.' But they said since it was a special occasion, they were going to play 'Ridin.' It was crazy."
First of all, I can't envision a bus with King Koopa's face "real big" on it without having some crazy nightmares. Second, if you're going to promote that UGK-inspired "riding dirty" lifestyle on wax, conventional thinking implies that you should brace up for situations involving suspicion and whatnot. Not that anyone really cares what people e-mail Cham about, but, he also talks about a cop e-mailing him on the topic of "Ridin."
"He said something along the lines of, 'Next time you make a song like that, think of cops who aren't with their families that protect other people's lives,' " Cham told MTV.
