Chamillionaire

Hakeem Temidayo Seriki (born November 28, 1979), better known by his stage name Chamillionaire (), is an American rapper. He began his solo career with locally-tailored releases in the early 2000s, including the collaborative album ''Get Ya Mind Correct'' (2002) with fellow Houston rapper and childhood friend Paul Wall. He signed with Universal Records in 2005 to release his debut studio album, ''The Sound of Revenge'' in November of that year. It included the singles "Ridin'" (featuring Krayzie Bone)—which peaked atop the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 and won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group—and "Turn It Up" (featuring Lil' Flip). His second album, ''Ultimate Victory'' (2007) was met with similar commercial success; it became notable for its lack of profanity and lead single "Hip Hop Police" (featuring Slick Rick)—as well as its accompanying music video. His pop rap-influenced 2009 single, "Good Morning" peaked within the top 40 of the ''Billboard'' Hot 100 was intended for inclusion on his third album ''Venom'', which was never released.

In 2011, Chamillionaire left Universal Records and released his first independent extended play (EP), ''Ammunition'' in March 2012. His second EP, ''Elevate'', was released in February 2013, followed by his third, ''Reignfall'' in July of that year. Prior, he released the mixtape series ''Mixtape Messiah'' from 2004 to 2009.

He was the founder and an original member of The Color Changin' Click from 2001 until the group disbanded in 2005. Chamillionaire is the CEO of Chamillitary Entertainment, which he founded in 2004. He joined Los Angeles–based venture capital firm Upfront Ventures in 2015, and has since focused on numerous entrepreneurial and business endeavors.
