If you thought Kanye West was bad, think again.

Meet Charles Hamilton. Lyrical genius. Mixtape maniac. Publicity whore.....and it's sad. Sad to the point to where I'm actually sad...for him. Remembering back to 2008 when I first heard of the kid and his Death of A Mixtape Rapper, I thought that Hamilton's spaced and tie-dyed mind would be one to bring some color into the black and blue-fisted face of hip-hop music, beaten by commercialism and smeared with scoops of poo. He had an obscure mind, crazy almost (at which I find attractive) and seemed willing to break the status quo of typical mixtape drops. The guy, to date, has put out a listing of nearly 50 compilations between 2007 and 2010 with some still waiting on a release date. He's no slouch and when people say quality over quantity, his work maintains the former and bolsters the latter, making him one formidable mouthpiece. It's just unfortunate that he did not emerge in 1996 because in this age, internet has killed the video star as morbidly put by the Limousines---and Charles Hamilton is committing suicide.

It was brought to my attention that Hamilton was at it again, appearing as if he was on drugs. The last time I tuned into the guy, he had recently checked out of the psych ward somewhere in NY. Why did he do this? Is he really crazy? Is he on drugs? Who knows?
