            In today’s music economy record sales are down and their has been considerable movement towards the digital medium as a way people get their music. MP3’s and ring tones are the most common forms of digital music and the RIAA created a new sales category yesterday to accommodate the huge ring tone sales for Houstonite Chamillionaire.

 

Before this acknowledgment Cham was already a platinum plus monster with his debut The Sound of Revenge, as well as being a. Grammy award winner for his hit ‘Ridin Dirty’. It’s that hit, which sold over 5 million ring tones, that garnered  Chamillionaire  the honor of being the  first “Mastertone” artist in music history.

Not to be satisfied with past success  though Cham has been  hard at work on his third album titled Venom as well as adding to his Mixtape Messiah Series and branching out into the world of internet promotions and networking. He will drop the 5th installment of the Messiah  tapes on his newly redeveloped Chamillionaire.com on November 23. Besides serving as a buffet for his new music, the site will also feature exclusive performance footage, video blogs, merchandise, music, news, and special giveaways. The website also showcases artists from Chamillitary Records, Chamillionaire’s new label that has secured distribution from Universal Republic.

            Though he may be hard at work on it Cham says of yet there is no definite date for when Venom is dropping but tells us it is “coming soon.”
