Nice choice, favorite song on the album with Pimp Mode.. Pimp Mode is smooooooooooooooooooth! I love it!

That's dope as fuck, again he picks my favourite track of the album as a single.
I was hoping so bad that he would pick it as a single.
At first TI picks Hurt as a single, now Cham picks Bill Collecta, thats some dope shit. :D
Would be cool if he picks the faster version of The Bill Collecta for his single.

Bad news, Industry Groupie is the next single:
Houston, Texas rapper Chamillionaire is preparing to shoot the video for Industry Groupie, the latest single from his critically acclaimed sophomore album Ultimate Victory.
The video re-teams the rapper with veteran director Marc Klasfeld, who shot the video for his single "Hip-Hop Police" featuring Slick Rick.
"Most of the time before you choose a director for your video, you have to look at different treatments in order to pick out the right one, but with Marc I just sat down and talked to him and he completely understood where I was going and what I wanted to do creatively with that record," Chamillionaire told AllHipHop.com.
The rapper also clarified the conceptual song's subject matter, despite the message the title conveys.
"It's a conceptual song. A lot of people listen to it and think I am talking about a female that has slept with a whole bunch of rappers, but I am actually talking about the industry overall and how it has changed," Chamillionaire revealed. "All my songs have a concept and if you just sit back and really listen to my album, you will realize that all the records where it sounds like I am talking about a female, I am really talking about music."
Chamillionaire, who snagged a Grammy Award in Feb. 2007 for his single "Ridin," hopes Ultimate Victory will reap the same rewards.
The video for "Hip-Hop Police" was recently nominated for a BET Hip-Hop Award for Best Hip-Hop Video of the Year.
"To me gaining a nomination is a blessing," Chamillionaire told AllHipHop.com. "It feels good to be recognized for doing something different and being creative. At the end of the day, people fail to realize that we are artists and as artists we have to constantly change and reinvent ourselves so that we can push the envelope and take creativity to a completely different level."
Chamillionaire, who is currently in Paris, France on a tour of Europe, is also planning a tour of the United States.
He is also developing new artists Tony Henry, an R&B singer and rappers Lil' Ken and Young Low.
"A lot of artists start to feel like they are too big to go one the road," Chamillionaire said, "I feel that is the best way to reach people is to go where they are, that is why I am talking to you from Paris. My artists are here with me learning the in's and out's of the business because I want them to be the best artists they can be and help them develop creatively, so that Chamillitary can one day be a dynasty like Roc-A-Fella, No Limit and Bad Boy."

Industry Groupie is a cool song
-
Good choice, he needs something really catchy after the album has done so poorly. Can't understand why, this is a great album but perhaps the lack of a parental advisory sticker is a big deterrent to people? I think it's stupid that in some songs there is a gap to cut out the swear word. If he didn't want them swearing why didn't he just ask them to change the lyrics.
-
^^ Yeah, that and the awful track with Lil Wayne are the only two minuses on this cd.
Very, very near classic for me.
BTW, Industry Groupie is dope, but its a) not as dope as Bill Collecta and b) is a strong chance it's gonna get annoying after a while
-
I agree on what you are saying it is close to being a classic, it's unbelievable that Chamillionaire made this after what I thought was a poor first album. That is not say that "Think I'm Crazy" Rain, Ridin and Void In My Life are not really good songs but those moments were just fleeting moments. For the most part I found the album quite bland and predictable. I think Industry Groupie is dope and I also think it's going to gain more attention on the radio than Bill Collecta would. Oh and each to his own I know, but if it wasn't for Lil Wayne, Rock Star would rock I think ;D
-
Bill Collecta is 1 of the sickest songs on the damn album, its fuckin crazy, the hook is unreal, this is a good pick, hopefully his album sales will go up nicely!!!

Agreed again, SOR was your average South album, very predictable like you said. He went completley out of the box with this one though.

nice, good choice 8)
i'm sure bill collecta will come next if he shoots another video

Rain was probably the best track on Sound of Revenge
