ong Information

"Gimme That" is a song written by Sean Garrett and produced by Scott Storch. In interviews from 2005, Chris considered choosing the song as the second single from his debut album, but the song "Yo (Excuse Me Miss)" was chosen as the single instead. Along with that, "Gimme That" was also featured at the end of the "Yo (Excuse Me Miss)" music video. A new version of "Gimme That" featuring rapper Lil Wayne was released as a single instead of the album version. The single debuted on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at #80 and climbed the charts quickly, only to peak at #15, becoming his first single to miss the top ten in the U.S. and the top twenty in the UK.

Music Video

The music video begins when Chris is at a station on a couch. He sees a girl who is 3 years older than himself. He finds a spot in a chair listening to "Poppin'" on his Sony Walkman Bean and falls asleep. The dream sequence recreates a train station in 1920s Harlem where he sings and dances with other workers at the station. Lil Wayne, who also calls him "Chris Breezy", wakes Chris up after the dream sequence. The music video was inspired by Michael Jackson's "Smooth Criminal" and "You Rock My World" videos.
