Chingy Artist Snapshot:

Rapper Chingy (aka Howard Bailey Jr.) honed his craft in his hometown of St. Louis, Missouri. His style, which features a clever, quick delivery in a high-pitched voice, draws on Dirty South and East Coast hardcore. Chingy's 2003 debut, JACKPOT, released on Ludacris's Disturbing Tha Peace label, pushed the singles "Right Thurr" and "Holidae Inn" into rotation. Chingy's profile increased after his publicized beefs with Ludacris and Nelly. He continued to develop and refine his hip-hop stamp on the albums POWERBALLIN' (2004), HOODSTAR (2006), and HATE IT OR LOVE IT (2007). Each release yielded at least one single, and featured high-profile cameos from the likes of R. Kelly, Little Wayne, Snoop Dog, and Janet Jackson, and production from Scott Storch, Timbaland, Jermaine Dupri, and others.

Chingy became an instant hip-hop celebrity with his ear-turning, slang-baked single "Right Thurr" and its accompanying multi-platinum debut album, JACKPOT. With 2004's POWERBALLIN', the laid-back St. Louis rapper with the slurred flow faces the always-daunting task of following up a triumphant first record. What's more, Chingy returns without the backing of Ludacris's Disturbing Tha Peace posse, with whom Chingy parted ways in the prior year.

Chingy harbors no bitterness towards his former crew, at least not in his lyrics, and more importantly, suffers no apparent drop-off from his opening salvo. POWERBALLIN' provides more of his lighthearted tales of clubs, cars, and women, delivered with Chingy's special sort of charm, bombastic and unaffected at the same time. After the most understated of intros, he starts the party quickly with the brash "Give Em Some Mo" and, from that point, the action never slows. On the R&B-flavored "Don't Worry," he collaborates with Janet Jackson and, on the beat-heavy "26's," he teams up with Lil Wayne. Chingy doesn't forge any new ground on POWERBALLIN', nor does he have to; as with JACKPOT, POWERBALLIN' is pure fun from a man with a knack for twisting words.
