Charlamagne Tha God
SOUTH CRACK
Little is known of Charlamagne's past other than the fact he was raised on a dirt road in Moncks Corner, South Carolina. Rumor has it that he's not even from this planet, but is an alien sent here to piss the world off. It's pointless to try to figure him out or ask him questions about his past because virtually every answer leads to new questions. Listen to Charlamagne Tha God on "The Wendy Williams Experience."
