Chingy Music Career

Early career

Ludacris and his manager, Chaka Zulu, signed Chingy to their fledgling Disturbing Tha Peace label. The up-tempo Southern hip hop track “Right Thurr” gained popularity, and peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot 100.

2003: Jackpot

On July 15, 2003, Chingy’s debut album Jackpot was released on Disturbing tha Peace. Ludacris negotiated a deal to distribute the album through Capitol Records since he was unable to secure a distribution deal through Def Jam. The guest appearances included Ludacris, Snoop Dogg, Murphy Lee, I-20, Raindrop, Tity Boi of Playaz Circle, Trina, and Jermaine Dupri.

Fueled by “Right Thurr”, Jackpot produced the hit “One Call Away” which featured J-Weav and “Holidae In” featuring Snoop Dogg and Ludacris. The next album The Trak Starz was produced by St. Louis production crew. The album was well received by critics which was certified Platinum by the RIAA within one year of the release of Jackpot.

2004–2005: Powerballin’

Chingy released his second album, Powerballin’, on November 16, 2004 through Slot-A-Lot Records and Capitol Records. The album peaked at #10 on the charts and featured the hit single “Balla Baby.” The album featured guest appearances from artists such as R.

Powerballin’ sold more than one million copies and received a Platinum certification by the RIAA on March 21, 2005.

He also was on one of the George Lopez episodes as himself. The 8th song from his album “I Do” is featured on the soundtrack for the 2004 video game Need for Speed: Underground 2.

2006: Hood Star

Chingy’s third album Hoodstar was released on September 19, 2006. The album featured Mr. Collipark, who was longtime collaborator Jermaine Dupri, Timbaland, and Mannie Fresh. His summer single, “Pullin Me Back” (featuring actor-R&B singer Tyrese), would find him back on top on the Hot Rap Tracks chart and help Hoodstar debut at number eight on its chart, but the follow-up single “Dem Jeans”, which featured Jermaine Dupri, fared worse although the album did go gold. The other singles from Hoodstar were “Brand New Kicks” and “Hands Up”.

2007–2008: Hate It or Love It

Chingy was not happy with the way he felt Capitol was promoting their urban artists. In 2007 he jumped ship and returned to DTP Records, which was then a part of the Def Jam family. When asked about his move, the St. Louis rapper reported “I don’t think Capitol really knew how to work urban artists, They’re really stuck on pop and they didn’t know how to market me.”

Chingy’s fourth studio album Hate It or Love It featured production from Scott Storch, Timbaland, and Cool and Dre. The lead single “Fly Like Me”, featured Amerie. It was released on December 18, 2007 featuring  appearances by Ludacris, Bobby Valentino, Steph Jones, Trey Songz, Rick Ross, and Anthony Hamilton.

The album debuted at 84 on the Billboard 200, selling 30,000 copies, making it his first album not to crack the Top 10. Hate It or Love It was not released in the UK, marking Chingy’s first albumoutside the country.

2010–2013 No Risk, No Reward

In 2012 Chingy announced he was working on his next (fifth) studio album called No Risk No Reward, DTP which was set to be released in the year 2012, but as of June 2016 continues to be delayed due to lack of funding. “Superhero”, featured Full Dekk Music Group’s artist Chris Woodhouse, and was purported to be the first single from his album.

Chingy then announced that he would release a mixtape entitled Jackpot Back. It was released on March 3, 2012. Chingy’s upcoming EP album entitled Chingology was released later that year.

2013–2014: “King Judah” and “Watch The World”

In Spring 2013, Chingy announced that he claimed the belief of Black Hebrew Israelites  and released the music video for “King Judah”. This was his attempt to follow a moral agenda and denouncing mainstream rap. Major media outlets in Australia and NZ leaked the information about a new Chingy collaboration entitled “Watch The World” featuring New Zealand based Asian model/singer Lucy X (Lucy Xu) .

The track produced by Christopher Kris (Kris Lal) had a rumor to be featured on an upcoming compilation album which was released in 2014. On November 1, 2013, the single was released to iTunes and radio. The song reached #2 on the iTunes Urban chart in the two countries, with a video too.

Chingy Holiday Inn Lyrics

Bomb ass pussy
Bomb, oh, you got that bomb, know you got it
Bomb, oh, you got some bomb-ass pussy
Bomb, I know you got that bomb, bomb pussy Nothing, chillin’ at the Holiday Inn
(Who you wit’?) Me and my peeps; won’t you bring four of your friends?
(What we gon’ do?) Feel on each other, and sip on some Hen
One thing leading to another; let the party begin Peeps call me up, said it’s a hotel party
Just bring the liquor; there’s already eight shawties
I’m on my way (way); let me stop by the store
Get a twelve pack of Corona plus a ounce of ‘dro, ya know?
Now I’m on Highway 2-7, need a natural graze road
I’m already blowed; hit third, I’m a be be blowed some mo’
Pulled up, stop parked, rims still spinning
Valet lookin’ like he in the game and must be winning
To room four-nine-O I’m headed; on my way up
There’s three girls on the elevator like “wassup”
I told ’em: “follow me”
They knew I had it cracking, B
One said, “ain’t you that boy that be on BET?”
“Yeah, that’s me, Ching-a-ling equipped wit’ much ding-a-ling.”
Knock on the door; I’m on the scene of things
Busted in, Henny bottle to the face!
Fuck it then; feel like my head a toxic waste
There’s some pretty girls in here; I heard ’em whispering
Talking ’bout “that’s that dude that sing ‘Right Thurr’; he glistening.”
I ain’t come to talk (talk), I ain’t come to sit (sit)
What I came for was to find out who I’m gon’ hit; aww, shit Ma showed up like, “what’s the hold up?”
Man know what get them wraps and roll up
I took a chick in the bathroom, seeing what’s poppin’
You know what’s on my mind, shirts off and panties dropping
Niggas knocking on the door drunk, actin’ silly
The girl said, “can I be in yo’ video?”
I’m like “yeah!” Oh really?
Now she naked, strip teasing; me, I’m just cheesing
She gave me a reason to be a damn heathen
Handled that, told ol’ G bring the camera
Then I thought about no footage while I ram her
Walked out the bathroom smiling, cats still whiling
Sharing the next room wit’ some girls lookin’ like they from an island Stop, drop, kaboom! Baby, rub on ya nipples
Some call me Ludacris, some call me Mr. Wiggles
Far from little; make ya mammary glands giggle
Got ’em under control, the bowl of tender vittles
Doctor giggles, I can’t stop until it tickles
Just play a little “D, ” and I’ll make ya mouth dribble
Bits and Kibbles, got ’em all after the pickle
I swing it like a bat, but these balls are not whiffle
Hit ’em in triples, wit’ no strikes, stripes, or whistles
I ain’t felt this good since my wood lived off a thistle
Sippin’ some ripple, I got quarters, dimes, and nickels
For shizzle dizzle, I’m on a track with the Big Snoop Dizzle
Let the Henny trickle down the beat wit’ a ghetto tempo
I done blazed the instrumental, laid it plain and simple
Getting brain in the rental, I done did it again
My eyes chinky; I’m wit’ Chingy at the Holiday Inn Yeah, let the party begin, bitch
Ching-a-ling-ling all the way in St. Louis
My nigga Chingy disturbing tha peace
Luda, Luda going hard on you hos
Yeah, bitch, bring four of ya friends
Meet me at the Holiday Inn
Bring a gang of that Hen, some DSOP
Oh wee, and light that sticky icky
And we gon’ do the damn thing
Know what I’m talking ’bout?
We gon’ disturb the peace right now
Yeah, we ain’t doing nothing but chillin’
We chillin’ and nuttin’
Know what I’m talking ’bout? So push the button
You know what’s happenin’, fa shizzle, uh-huh
Yeah, bitch, trying to run from this pimpin’
You can’t out run the pimpin’, bitch
I done told you

Chingy Lyrics One Call Away

Yeah yeah, DTP, how we do, call you, you can call me
Whatever you want to do baby, come on

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my baby) I’m only one call away
(You could roll with me) Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my lady) I’m only one call away

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my baby) I’m only one call away
(You could roll with me) Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my lady) I’m only one call away

It was weird how we met, huh?
She was with her mom at Bank of America
I’m with my son cashing a check, so I asked out of respect, uh
Would she like to explore the world or fly, we can fly in my jet
Her reply was yes (Can I ask you something?)
I seen it in her eye, momma looking like all I wanted was sex
Then moved to the next (That ain’t true)
But it was something about his girls style that make me feel no regrets
We started off casual walks through the park
Candle light dinners by dark, I’m thinking smart
Afraid she might think I’m in a rush to touch, clutch and be up
But baby I ain’t on that stuff
Dropped her off and told her call me up
We could talk, conversate about political subjects, whatever starts
So I zoomed off thinkin’ bout her, my phone rang
It was her in the shower (what did she say?)
She said I couldn’t do without you Then I say

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my baby) I’m only one call away
(You could roll with me) Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my lady) I’m only one call away

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my baby) I’m only one call away
(You could roll with me) Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my lady) I’m only one call away

The next day I’m with the fellas at the case playin ball
Here she come with her friends they posted up on the wall
Now I’m showin’ off, tryin’ to dunk, tryin’ to dribble
Break fast threw the middle just to see her smile and giggle
Game over I approached her with a kiss on the cheek
The homeboys looking at me saying Lil Howard you weak
But you know how that go, what I got they want
What I got I flaunt, never mess with it please don’t
Told her I’m goin home she asked can she go too
I’m like yeah boo, I can’t see me without you
Got thurr I took a shower, jumped out she in the bed
With a see-threw thong on looked at her and I said

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my baby) I’m only one call away
(You could roll with me) Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my lady) I’m only one call away

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my baby) I’m only one call away
(You could roll with me) Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my lady) I’m only one call away

Girl recognize game before game recognize you
You dealin’ with a playa, true, now what you wanna do
We can kick it and go puff on a blunt
Oh you don’t smoke? Grab a pint of henn and we can get drunk
Its up to you, I’m the man but baby just let me know
‘Cause if you got a attitude then I could treat you just like a ho
If ya rollin with me baby hop in its enough room
We can gaze at the stars and shine like the moon
Give me a chance to show ya and a chance to know ya
Just be true and theres nothing I won’t do for ya
Some women like to play it foul
But them the kind I put in a place like a child
Don’t worry be happy and smile

Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my baby) I’m only one call away
(You could roll with me) Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my lady) I’m only one call away Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my baby) I’m only one call away
(You could roll with me) Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my lady) I’m only one call away Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my baby) I’m only one call away
(You could roll with me) Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my lady) I’m only one call away Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my baby) I’m only one call away
(You could roll with me) Give me a call if you wanna come roll with me
(If you was my lady) I’m only one call away DTP, ha, how we do, ha, give me call, if you wanna ball, you know what it is
