Similar in style to colleague St. Louis pop-rapper Nelly, Chingy enjoyed a tidy sum of succeeder initially in his life history, outset with the summer 2003 blast hit "Right Thurr," yet he struggled to rival that success in subsequent eld. Born Howard Bailey, Jr., on March 9, 1980, in St. Louis, MO, Chingy was signed by Atlanta rapper Ludacris, whose Disturbing the Peace label released "Right Thurr" as the booster cable single to Jackpot (2003). "Right Thurr" became a spry hit, acquiring a wad of airplay and breaking into the Top Five of Billboard's Hot 100. Jackpot spawned deuce additional Top Five hits, "Holidae In" and "One Call Away," simply an ensuing dispute 'tween Chingy and Disturbing the Peace resulted in a seperation of the rapper from the judge. Powerballin' (2004), Chingy's mo album, was released by Capitol and failed to rival the success of its harbinger; its leading single, "Balla Baby," stalled at number 20 and its followup single, "Don't Worry," failed to even crack the Hot 100. Hoodstar (2006) was comparatively more successful, lED by the Top Ten strike "Pullin' Me Back," though the album itself fell considerably short of pt gross revenue status (in comparing, Kitty had bypast triple platinum). Chingy solved his differences with Disturbing the Peace thereafter and returned to the judge for his side by side album, Hatred It or Love It (2007).
