Fly Like Me
"Fly Like Me" is a song by American rapper Chingy. It is the first single from his fourth album Hate It or Love It (2007). It features singer Amerie and has, in Chingy's words, a "mainstream feel" similar to that of the 2005 single "Pimpin' All Over the World" by rapper Ludacris, who was originally to have been featured on the song alongside singer Rihanna. The song was released on November 13, 2007 but was a commercial failure as it stalled at number 89 on the Billboard Hot 100, however it went to number 40 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart.[1] From October 12, "Fly like Me" was available for streaming on Def Jam Recordings' official website.[2]

gollark: Âh, weird cultural stuff.
gollark: How do you end up with a stupidly large civilization but barely any life extension stuff?
gollark: I'm wondering how many 32 bit Unix systems will be around in 2038. Probably a lot. Inevitably a few will be in some sort of critical system.
gollark: Also, everyone knows that time begins in 1970, not 1999.
gollark: It's probably better than current Earth, but not exactly a wonderful society to live in.
