Rapper Chip Tha Ripper has decided to make a career change by using a different name. The new stage name is a bit shorter but still similar.

The hip hop artist formerly known as Chip Tha Ripper is now King Chip.

The Cleveland native has already made King Chip the name on his Twitter account. He tweeted that only positive feedback about the name change matters. As for the "haters," he called them "sims." See below.




King Chip also divulged that he is now under Creative Artist Agency (CAA), the same agency as Kanye West.

Do you like the name change or was he better without it?
