By the early\n2000s, Southern Hip-Hop was overtaking East Coast and West Coast acts with national radio and\nvideo play. The Chopped and Screwed style made popular by Houston's DJ Screw's mixtapes was\nalso spreading nationwide. In 2005, another H-Town indie label, Swishahouse, was blowing up with\na deal they had inked with Warner Music Group's resurrected Asylum label. Founded by Michael\n\"5000\" Watts and OG Ron C, Swishahouse released the single \"Still Tippin\" on The Day Hell Broke\nLoose 2 compilation. The single, which featured Mike Jones, Paul Wall, and Slim Thug, would be\nadded to Mike Jones' debut album Who is Mike Jones? leading to the first platinum album under\nSwishahouse and would set the stage for Paul Wall's major label debut. After releasing several\nalbums and mixtapes with fellow H-Town rapper Chamillionaire, Paul Wall signed a deal with\nAtlantic\/Asylum\/Swishahouse and released the gold-certified single \"Sittin Sideways\" in the\nsummer of 2005. The People's Champ, featuring Paul Wall's famous platinum and diamond grillz\non the cover, was released on September 13, 2005, debuting at #1 on the Billboard Charts. The\nalbum is an ode to the laid-back Houston culture of hustling, cars, sippin' on purple drank while\nlistening to Chopped and Screwed music. The album had the internet goin' nuts with features from\nTexas contemporaries Mike Jones, Big Pokey, Bun B, as well as southern rap stars Three 6 Mafia,\nT.I., and Lil Wayne. The album spawned another gold single from the Kanye West-produced track\n\"Drive Slow\" and would push sales to Platinum status. Paul Wall went on to release fourteen more\nalbums, with his latest, The Tonite Show, this past July.\n\nA1. I'm A Playa (feat. Three 6 Mafia) A2. They Don't Know (feat. Mike Jones) \nA3.
