Tity Boi AKA 2 Chainz is one half of Playaz Circle along with long time friend Dolla Boy. 2 Chainz played basketball at ASU (Alabama State University) in Montgomery, Alabama. Hailing from the Southside of Atlanta, Playaz Circle came together as a compilation in the late 90’s. They released their debut album, and shortly after that, they were introduced to radio DJ Chris Lova Lova AKA Ludacris through mutual friend Lil' Fate. Unfortunately. shortly after that, 2 Chainz was shot and Dolla was incarcerated. After hearing about their misfortune, Ludacris reached out, offering to sign them. DTP began to form, and 2 Chainz was apart of the label and signed to DTP when Dolla Boy was released.
Throughout his career, Epps received speculation that the name Tity Boi was meant to be derogatory towards women, although he repeatedly denied the accusations,in early 2011 he decided to change his stage name to 2 Chainz as he perceived it to be more "family friendly".

I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
It's mine I spend it, it's mine I spend it
It's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it
I'm smoking on exotic, my girl ain't got no stomach
Every time we have sex she always ask me for a hundred
I asked her if she workin', she asked me do I want it
I said, "When I went to school, bitch, money was the subject"
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
It's mine I spend it, it's mine I spend it
It's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
It's mine I spend it, it's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it
I'm riding 'round my side of town
Boxin gloves, I beat the trap
I had a coke, I had a smile
I had a coat for every style, crocodile the gator type
I'm allergic to the hater type, I'll take your wife, give her back
Nine months after that, similac
Similar to saying mama's baby's daddy maybe
When we had sex I was in the Mercedes
And I ain't crazy but if that's my baby
Then we gonna have to name the lil' baby Mercedes
The money that I'm makin I don't see it like I'm blind
I rather spend money baby I don't spend time
My pocket's on full and so is my gas tank
And all my cars got gas in the ash tray
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
It's mine I spend it, it's mine I spend it
It's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
It's mine I spend it, it's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it
I'm riding around on my side of town wit' my dubs up and my window down
It's the king homie I'm on one, them suckers know they don't want none
Steady repping that one son, Bankhead, Cedar Hills
I'm on Simpson Road and I'm going over to pick up some dough from in Adamsville
My seat white, my paint tight, spray candy red the same at the wheel
Got a bag of pills in my stash spot, steady whipping them racks out
Got a quarter-mil in my Louis bag if you wanna know what that sack 'bout
Still rep for them have-nots, try me homie you assed out
I got Striver's Row in my denim tag and Akoo shit, new kicks
Supersport on deuces, bumping that Trap Muzik
I'm super-paid, I'm Gucci, two cute chicks who do tricks
Stay out of my business, when I'm riding around and I'm getting it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
It's mine I spend it, it's mine I spend it
It's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it, it's mine I spend it
It's mine I spend it, it's mine I spend it
I'm riding 'round and I'm gettin it
