He first came to prominence in 2010, when he was a contestant on Survivor: Nicaragua, where he was the runner-up to Jud "Fabio" Birza.
Born in Florida, Rice was raised on a farm in Asheville, North Carolina. He attended AC Reynolds High School and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he was a linebacker on the football team, but did not pursue an NFL career due to injury.
After graduating from UNC, Rice was selected to join the Hendrick Motorsports pit crew as the rear tire carrier for Ryan Newman's Nationwide Series car. He also worked on Jimmie Johnson's Sprint Cup Series car and won two championships with the Lowe's team.
Chase Rice began playing guitar in college. He cites his father as the inspiration for his career, recalling his father saying "boy anyone can play guitar, but no one is gonna really listen to you until you start singing." He models his albums after his live show and is building his career through the performance aspect. His first studio album, Friday Nights & Sunday Mornings, was released on April 22, 2010. This 13-track album includes the first song he ever wrote/recorded, "Larger Than Life", which is about the passing of his father. This is the only full-length album Rice has released that is not available for digital purchase or streaming.
In March 2011, he released Country as Me, a six-track EP featuring his single "Buzz Back". He has received airplay as a "Highway Find" on satellite radio channel The Highway (Sirius XM). In April 2012, his Dirt Road Communion debuted at number 48 on the Billboard Country Albums chart. This album included the original recordings of "Jack Daniels and Jesus" and "How She Rolls", the latter of which has been removed from streaming and digital platforms in its original form. "Whoa" has also been removed from all digital and streaming platforms, but was never re-released leaving the current total tracks on the album at 14. "Happy Hour (Worktape)" includes a hidden track, "Kiss My Ass", which begins at the 4:31 minute mark on the song.
In July 2012, he signed with Creative Artists Agency. He was a co-writer of Florida Georgia Line's "Cruise", which topped Billboard Hot Country Songs.
In October 2013, he released Ready Set Roll, a six-song EP including the title track. The physical version of the album was released in November 2013 and included the bonus song "Jack Daniel's and Jesus". On January 29, 2014, the official "Ready Set Roll" music video premiered exclusively on CMT. The next day, the video debuted on VEVO. He partnered with Columbia Records for distribution of "Ready Set Roll" in March 2014.
On June 30, 2014, Rice released the album cover, release date, and album sequence for Ignite the Night. The full-length album was released on August 19, 2014, and included the Platinum-certified single, "Ready Set Roll".
In February 2016, Rice released "Whisper", which was intended to be the lead single from an upcoming album. The song failed to gain any traction on radio, peaking at #56 on the week of April 23, 2016, after just 3 weeks of being on the Country Airplay chart. It is currently Rice's lowest peaking single to date, only behind How She Rolls which peaked at #55 in 2013, which never received real label backing. After the disappointing chart performance of the song, Rice issued a letter to his fans regarding the single, stating "If you have listened to my music for years and want to hear more depth and meaning, I very much appreciate you, too, and your desires will also be fulfilled on this album (and truthfully, that was my goal on previous albums with songs like "Carolina Can" and "Every Song I Sing.")" He went on to mention he was influenced by Garth Brooks and Kenny Chesney. Rice then released "Everybody We Know Does", which was sent to country radio on June 24, 2016.
After "Everybody We Know Does" failed to crack the top 25, Rice left Columbia in 2017 and signed to Broken Bow Records the same year. The lead single from Rice's first album with BBR, "Three Chords and the Truth", was sent to country radio. This single was highly praised by both country fans and radio, as this was his first single to crack the Top 25 on the Country Airplay chart in 4 years.
Lambs & Lions is Rice's first album on Broken Bow Records/BMG and is also the first album released by BBR since the BMG takeover. Lambs & Lions was released on November 17, 2017.
Rice's single "Eyes on You" became his first #1 on country radio on May 6, 2019, staying at the top for two weeks. He then released the follow-up single "Lonely If You Are" on July 1, 2019.
Rice appeared on the fourth episode of season 24 of The Bachelor, performing at a private concert for bachelor Peter Weber and his date, Victoria Fuller, at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio. Fuller later revealed that she had previously dated Rice.
In November 2020, Rice released the single "Drinkin' Beer. Talkin' God. Amen." featuring his long-time friends Florida Georgia Line. It is the second single from Rice's fifth studio album, The Album, which was released on May 28, 2021.

Chase Rice Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Woah woah yeah
Oh oh oh yeah yeah
Take off those heels, lay on my bed
Whisper dirty secrets while I'm pulling on your hair
Poison in our veins but we don't even care
Candles dripping on your body, baby this ain't truth or dare
My body on your body baby sticking like some glue
Naughty, let's get naughty girl, it's only one or two
The fever's running, feel the heat between us too
I'm gon' ride, I'm gon' ride, I'm gon' ride
I'm gon' ride on you baby, on you lady all night, all night
I'mma take care of your body, I'll be gentle, don't you scream
It's getting hotter, make it softer, feel your chest on top of me
I'm gon' ride, I'm gon' ride, I'm gon' ride
I'm gon' ride on you baby, on you lady all night, all night
I'm gon' make you feel that loving, getting weak all in your knees
Kiss your body from the tip top all the way down to your feet
Yeah girl, we can go slow
Yeah, we can go slow
Lay on your back, like you right there
Don't have to say it twice, love, there's nothing here to fear
Taking it back, back to where it's clear
Rolling on and on, sounds of loving in the air
I'm gon' ride, I'm gon' ride, I'm gon' ride
I'm gon' ride on you baby, on you lady all night, all night
I'mma take care of your body, I'll be gentle, don't you scream
It's getting hotter, make it softer, feel your chest on top of me
I'm gon' ride, I'm gon' ride, I'm gon' ride
I'm gon' ride on you baby, on you lady all night, all night
I'm gon' make you feel that loving, getting weak all in your knees
Kiss your body from the tip top all the way down to your feet
Ooh ooh
Ooh ooh oh
The sun's coming up, you're on my side
I rub your thigh, you look in my eyes
And I just see the sky, I'm so high
And I ain't smoked yet, I'm just coming down from it
I'm gon' ride, I'm gon' ride, I'm gon' ride
I'm gon' ride on you baby, on you lady all night, all night
I'mma take care of your body, I'll be gentle, don't you scream

"Ride" by Chase Rice is a steamy and sensual song that talks about two individuals engaging in sexual intimacy. The first verse opens with the female partner taking off her heels and lying on the bed as her partner whispers dirty secrets while pulling on her hair. Despite their toxic love, they are unable to resist each other and become lost in the moment. The lyrics "poison in our veins, but we don't even care" implies the danger they are engaging in, but their desire for each other is too strong. The chorus emphasizes that he will ride on her all night, taking care of her body and making her weak in the knees as they explore each other's bodies. The second verse talks about laying on the bed, taking it back to memories that were once clear, and enjoying the sounds of love in the air.
The song is essentially about the physical and emotional connection of two people in a lustful relationship. The lyrics detail how they are lost in the love bubble and exploring each other's bodies. The song is catchy, and the lyrics are fast-paced, almost like a rap, complementing the sexual energy. The song's rising tempo and clever use of lyrics make it appealing and engaging.
Overall, “Ride” is a sensually charged song about engaging in the thrill of the moment with someone you desire, even if it may be dangerous or toxic.
