艺人介绍

Chingy来自于美国南方的圣·路易斯，在他的成长历程中看到了社会上许多黑暗的层面，但是Chingy并不想描述他所看到的阴暗的事件，反而在他的学校和街道上一直都保持着相对“中庸”的立场。后来这也体现在他的音乐之中，Chingy是喜欢音乐才做音乐的，他并不想把做音仅仅当作自己的饭碗，他的理想是能够成为一名真正的音乐家，就像他的偶像迈克尔·杰克逊一样！

他的音乐生涯很大程度上要感谢另外两位南方说唱音乐的明星Nelly和Ludacris，正是由于此二人的提携，才有了Chingy的今天。在LL Cool J，Run DMC，Snoop Dogg，Nelly和Ludacris这样的大牌说唱歌星的影响下，Chingy很快有了自己的说唱明星梦想，并却迅速将这一梦想付诸实施。他参与了Nelly的2002年的多白金专辑《Nellyville》的录制工作，并且由于专辑的大获成功，从而得到了不少的分红。当Chingy的首支单曲《Right Thurr》于2003年的4月份发行，并且在Ludacris的大力协助之下红遍整个圣·路易斯的时候，Ludacris和他的经理Chaka Zulu就开始把这个十分有潜力的小伙子的专辑制作计划提上日程。与此同时，单曲《Right Thurr》并没有停止脚步，它很快的开始在全美各大电台播放，并且悄然的攀升至Billboard Hot 100单曲榜第三名的位置。

Similar in style to fellow St. Louis pop-rapper Nelly, Chingy enjoyed a lot of success initially in his career, beginning with the summer 2003 smash hit &Right Thurr,& yet he struggled to rival that success in subsequent years. 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 lead single to Jackpot (2003). &Right Thurr& became a quick hit, getting a lot of airplay and breaking into the Top Five of Billboard's Hot 100. Jackpot spawned two additional Top Five hits, &Holidae In& and &One Call Away,& but an ensuing dispute between Chingy and Disturbing the Peace resulted in a seperation of the rapper from the label. Powerballin' (2004), Chingy's second album, was released by Capitol and failed to rival the success of its predecessor; its lead single, &Balla Baby,& stalled at number 20 and its follow-up single, &Don't Worry,& failed to even crack the Hot 100. Hoodstar (2006) was relatively more successful, led by the Top Ten hit &Pullin' Me Back,& though the album itself fell well short of platinum sales status (in comparison, Jackpot had gone triple platinum). Chingy resolved his differences with Disturbing the Peace thereafter and returned to the label for his next album, Hate It or Love It (2007).
