Operation: Ignore Charles Hamilton (Video)

It’s crazy how saying something can turn an entire subgenre on you damn near. What do I feel about the situation? I really don’t give three shits what ol’ boy decides to do…. that’s it. UPDATE: Jay Smooth added a quick addendum to this, which you can check under the cut.

  1. Hmm

  2. Well articulated and nice approach to the whole thing, especially when pitting it against the general reaction that his latest debacle caused.

  3. Isn’t Jay just fucking his own message up with this? I mean, while I do agree shouldn’t he have stayed silent too?

  4. SMH at the Hamster being “first”.

  5. smh @ the haters on here. just cuz dude is white lol.

    this dude is truth. hi haters

  6. @sasha….uhhhno…. i mean the point is to have a unified attempt at Operation Ignore CH. unification can’t occur without a announcement of the operation.
    but the op won’t work anyways…. it’s like expecting a child to ignore his antagonizing sibling just cuz Mom said to

  7. @yowaa, where are the haters?

  8. People Are Really Taking This A Little Outta Hand CH Already Stated His Reason Of Doing The Whole Dilla Thing I Say Everyone Just Leave It Alone And Move On

  9. CH really needs to jus fall back an concentrate on producing, hes destroyin his image, his demevolist artists and probably his interscope deal with his big mouth.
    And im a fan of the music.

    And then Dilla, Staff Development, Pink Lavalamp, The L word and Well isnt this awkward have been spinning constantly since they dropped. Not feelin his flow or subject matter past WITA tho

  10. this is why i dont hate charles hamilton yet…..this is a good post

  11. Lmao dude has a point, charles acts crazy and shit sometimes but dudes music is on point. The people around him just need to help him with the rest of it.

  12. “but the op won’t work anyways…. it’s like expecting a child to ignore his antagonizing sibling just cuz Mom said to”

    My point exactly in a way. This is hip-hop, people don’t just fall back. That’s why we like the shit so much. It’s raw and in your face, and while the internet has taken away some of that raw edge, we can still see it rise up somewhat like for example with what House Shoes did.

  13. Was my comment deleted? damn. aw well i agree wit the vid

  14. How you gonna respect someone that is trying to get a rep off of a dead persons fame…?

    House Shoes was right, this dude is not.

  15. Ma Dukes DIDN’T KNOW WHO THE HELL HAMILTON WAS!! That’s why this shit is wrong. Hamilton is trying to build his buzz by flat out fabricating a relationship that he had with a dead man and his family. The shit is disgusting.

  16. to preface this. i’m a fan of this website and am excited for posts like the mos def unreleased mixtape, but isn’t it hypocritical to post all of this charles hamilton nonsense, however entertaining, and then go 180 by posting this j smooth video without any statement about how either you were wrong for focusing on ch or how you disagree with j smooth’s video. you can’t take both positions at once.

  17. Now that Ma Dukes has spoken about this issue, people need to stop talking about this bullshit. it’s over, history. my advice to charlie, don’t do STUPID SHIT!!! keep making the dope music and don’t let other shit get in your way. a nigga from the D might kick your ass now, but that should be enough to teach you a lesson. on another note, someone oughta throw a tissue box at all the kids constantly crying about this.

  18. J smooth has mostly been right about the things he speaks on. It’s not just the Dilla thing, or Black Spade, but it shows time and time again that Charles really doesn’t know how to behave himself in regards to anyone besides himself. People keep saying he’s young and a kid but he is 20. He is no longer someone that needs to have his hand held and forgiven with everything that happens. He is in control of his own destiny and if he put all this music and built a fanbase by himself, he should understand that if he isolates himself, it is because he did it because of himself.

  19. What he says makes sense and I too meet a lot of kids and work organizations that took care of kids in broken homes.

    However, all those ways of couping with problems still doesn’t mean he doesn’t lack common sense and right from wrong.

    Hypothetically speaking if he had a ultimatum with a robber holding him at gun point and the robber gave him a option to lay down or get stabbed would he not lay down to survive (rhetorical question)? He knows that he has these issues but mae the obvious choice to be disrespectfull. I still believe he is narcisit.

    Right and wrong only exist when it’s for his benefit. When it’s for someone else he’s too selfish and self center to give respect because he sees that as an lost opportunity on him recieving the rewards of attention. His philosphy is “Why give attention when I need it”

    His past may be the cause of this but the difference is; he does realize it. He just does NOT care right now and doesn’t want to until he gets his fair share of success/attention “that he deserves” Theb he’ll care. Sometimes if you don’t change something in life will find it’s way to humble you to change.

  21. I wasn’t that mad until I saw the joint with Ms Yancey…..She doesn’t know this guy, she said she wanted to choke him…..Hamilton might have just ethered himself….I know he thinks he coming across as the lovable underdog but he really just looks like an a**hole…He fails are getting into Young Berg territory and he knows he doesn’t want any of that action…he almost got knocked out by a chick…This dude needs to stick to doing music (which actually isn’t that bad) and STFU…He is creating the type of hype that gets you merked….I say the jawn with Royce talkin about it and he was right….You can’t help a cat who keeps talkin…..

  22. why do i feel like charles is just gonna say that ma duke’s spirit knows him personally and the physical ma dukes has no idea ? =x =x =x

    i cant lie.. i dig a good amount of CH’s work.. but with all the stunts he’s been pullin lately.. its just like.. rly? ..srsly?

  23. Paragraphs in the C-Section scare the shit outta me.

  24. ^^^^^^^ yeah, sometimes it’s terrifying. your not alone.

  25. props to jay smooth for going out and saying what alot of people were thinking who the fuck cares about the dilla thing how many people say ohh 2pac influenced me big all that shit GTFOH time to move on

  26. Real talk,If I remember correctly I just recently read an article stating that Dilla was in serious financial trouble and Ma Dukes wasnt getting paid for Dillas work. Correct me if im wrong. So how is it that CH decides to put Dilla as Executive producer to basically give her a portion of all sales. How is this wrong? The man is trying to help. You all need to take off your “dilla is god goggles” and realize what his true intentions are. 2dopeboyz I have lost alot of respect for this site due to all the CH dickriding. Im not even a fan of dude but im also smart enough to understand that all hes trying to do is help. You can sit here and say hes doing it to sell records…Well, the more records he sells the more money goes to Ma Dukes. Its common sense people. At least hes doing something to put money in her pocket unlike some of these well known artists that actually did work with dilla and gave her shit. We should be applauding him not dissing him every chance we get.

  27. SHOWMAN3000…..my point exactly i couldnt have said it better except i was one of those kids in an organization to help me….i still know right from wrong and what not though your dead right.

  28. @chris.. how was he going to give Ma Dukes money if it’s a free album?

  29. @chris.. how is chahhhles gonna donate money to a jdilla foundation which does not exist… thats where chahhhles said he’s giving money to… so…… its cool if he’s gonna do it.. but like house shoes said..this shit coulda been avoided if chahhhles went through the proper channels and made phone calls/connections to the right people.. the road to hell is paved with good intentions i say

  30. damn yo this dude is WACK. truth be told ppl gotta stop livin on e! and wikipedia. take charles hamilton for what he is-an amazing producer/rapper. listen to what u like. ignore what u dont like. leave it at that. listenin to songs like “reminder” and “barbara walters” should give u a much better insight to where hes coming from than any “bio” this dude ever read. some of the most amazing writers in history were schizos. so leave it at that. get of worldstar and drake (aka the hannah montana of the rap game) and listen to what this dude is sayin in his music. not what some bloggers(haters) tell you

  31. props to jay smooth for going out and saying what alot of people were thinking who the fuck cares about the dilla thing how many people say ohh 2pac influenced me big all that shit GTFOH time to move on

    =================================================================

    Disrespectful ass mofo. Don’t like Dilla, then get the fuck out this post.

    How many muthafuckas credit 2Pac as an executive producer for their albums, claim they met him, & talk about meeting him in spirit?

    None. Because no one is stupid enough to do that.

    CH is talented but he needs to keep his opinions to himself,
    or at consult someone before you openly do it.

  32. charles you’re a mf moron. *bleep bloop blap* =)

  33. this guy is reaching a little….some people, (kids included) are just assholea and reckless….plain and simple….Plenty of kids from the same background and worse are respectable too, that’s the part that J Smooth is ignoring….Don’t make excuses for people’s behavior, hold them accountable for it and don’t talk around your criticisms of them when they’re clearly in the wrong….That approach only breeds more excuses….You gotta let them know why they wrong, be direct and let them know it’s unacceptable and start ignoring them right away-that’s how people figure out that they gotta grow up….not with some psuedo-intellectual diatribe about how you worked with at-risk kids and what those children did…..

  35. its funny that charles said he would donate the money to the foundation that dosen’t exist anymore.

    BUT Ma dukes said she was bringing it back in august, which happens to be when this perfect life hits store shelves and starts generating money.

    All this after charles talks about his “paranormal” relationship.

    U ignorant idiots need to get ur facts straight and stop band wagoning.
