Today rapper Charles Hamilton shared a photo on Twitter of himself with none other than the Queen B, Beyonce. We knew Charles Hamilton was making a comeback, but if the two are working on music together, this would definitely be a huge cosign and collaboration. Although, we wonder how Jay-Z feels about this photo, considering the fact that Hamilton dedicated a song to the couple in 2011, titled ‘Is Beyonce Really With Jay-Z?‘
Check out Charles’ latest single ‘NY Raining’ with Rita Ora.

“Call your friends, all your friends, go ‘head, whistle. Tell ’em that it’s official. Charles Hamilton is back!” raps Charles Hamilton on his 2009 track, a year where the former XXL Freshman had a lot more buzz than he has today. And after a viral video of him being punched by his former girlfriend and after checking himself into a mental hospital, it seemed like his hype had went away. Now though it appears as “Charles Hamilton is back” as he just released his new track ‘Correct’. Stream the new track below as Charles emotionally raps about his sins and his take on police brutality.
