Hate It or Love It

Chingy

High-gloss 2000s club rap defined by a signature St. Louis drawl, heavy synth-bass, and polished R&B collaborations.

Find on Amazon

The ultimate 2007 time capsule for anyone who misses glossy club-rap and the St. Louis swing.

Unapologetically confident and club-focused with a glossy, commercial sheen.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The smooth interplay between Chingy and Amerie on Fly Like Me creates a perfect radio-pop synergy.
The aggressive synth-stabs and heavy low-end on Kick Drum provide a harder edge than his previous hits.
The melodic, soulful pivot on How We Feel shows a rare moment of introspection amidst the club anthems.
