'Amazing': Chamillionaire and E-40 Receive Praise for New Contest That Awards $25,000 to Minority- or Female-Owned Startup
(https://atlantablackstar.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Chamillionaire-E-40.jpg)
In February, for Black History Month, Houston rapper Chamillionaire announced that he'd donate $10,000 to a Black-owned startup. And now he's done something similar with the help of E-40 as well as a company called Republic.
Chamillionaire said he wanted to help out because there simply aren't enough female and minority-owned businesses around.
"During Black History Month, I did a contest where I invested $10,000 in a black founder's company, so we're going to keep that same energy and I'm going to do it again but this time I'm going to invest in a minority or woman's founder startup since those companies are still so underrepresented in this space," said Chamillionaire in an Instagram video posted on Wednesday.
Then E-40 appeared on the screen and said he wants to assist as well.
"I know you invested 10 thow-wow in a founder in your last pitch competition," he stated. "This time I want to join you and Republic. Let's put 25 thow-wow together and give it to the best company."
To enter, Chamillionaire told people to download his Convoz app for iOS or Android, click on the banner on top of the homepage, then follow the listed rules.

We really need more black own businesses, in black communities and ALL over...
Afro - I know you this, but in many communities in NYC, other races/cultures own businesses in our neighborhoods (I'm not counting Caribbean ppl).
It is annoying!! We don't own anything.
But if you go to a places in Queens, you have the Greek, South Asians, etc circulating their own money within their communities.
This is a good step. I like what these two men are doing.

There are people in the community who genuinely CARE about the community and its wellbeing and progression.
There's so little we can control as Black people in a White country so why not POUNCE on every thing that we can.
And I agree with Ton. I haven't heard of Chamillionaire in many years. But so glad to hear of him again in this way

Wow.
I had to do some more digging on him. Romero got me thinking a bit.
Come the fuck on. He was NOT gonna be a one hit wonder-turned-crack addict.
QuoteOn February 23, 2015, Upfront Ventures, the largest early-stage fund raised in L.A, since 2000 appointed Chamillionaire as an entrepreneur in residence. This marks the first time an honor of this kind has been bestowed upon a rap artist. Chamillionaire hopes that this pivotal new role will allow him to help usher in the next generation of tech entrepreneurs as well as continue to offer valuable advice and investment capital to worthy start-ups.[54] Chamillionaire met Upfront partner, Mark Suster, in 2009, becoming one of the earliest co-investors in Maker Studios, now a subsidiary of The Walt Disney Company.
Come the fuck on boy!
He put that Ridin' Dirty coin to fucking use. STRETCH it a bit, King!

I'm not. One mega hit can set a person up for life if they're smart with their money..

He must have been very smart with his money.
Investments. People had to download his new app to enter the mess for a chance to win the money.
So it makes sense that he sees the importance of this.

!!! Its simple. Become financially literate and your good. That's the only difference people with one hit and people with multiple hits. Either you know how to take care of money and let it work for you or your JUST spending.
Damn KANG is smart huh
businessman self
I never thought he was BROKE but I didn't know he was worth $25M
