With guidance from his cousin Willie Taylor, of Day26 fame, as well as producer Mick Schultz (who Jeremih met during his time at Columbia College Chicago), Jeremih released his debut single Birthday Sex in March 2009, peaking at number four on the Billboard Hot 100. His self-titled debut album was released in June 2009, and debuted at number six on the Billboard 200. His second studio album, All About You, was released in September 2010, featuring guest appearances from Ludacris and 50 Cent.
In December 2011, Jeremih confirmed work on a third album originally entitled Thumpy Johnson, and would later release his first mixtape Late Nights with Jeremih in August 2012. After the release of his collaborative EP No More with producer Shlohmo, Jeremih would change his album title to Late Nights: The Album in August 2014, releasing the EP N.O.M.A [Not on My Album] that same month. With no announcement or promotion prior to the release date, the album was finally released on December 4, 2015, featuring guest appearances from J. Cole, YG, Ty Dolla $ign, Migos, Future, Big Sean, Feather, Juicy J, Twista and Jhené Aiko.
In February 2016, Jeremih confirmed his fourth album title as Later That Night, intending to be another instalment in his Late Nights series. During this year, he released another mixtape entitled Late Nights: Europe and would tour with fellow R&B singer-songwriter PARTYNEXTDOOR, with a project between the two being teased. However, Jeremih was later removed from the tour due to issues between the two artists. By the end of that year though, he would then collaborate with Chance the Rapper for a Christmas project entitled Merry Christmas Lil Mama, which was reissued two more times in 2017 and 2020 with new tracks.
In February 2017, Jeremih released the upcoming album's planned lead single "I Think of You" featuring fellow singer Chris Brown and rapper Big Sean. Three months later, the singer then recorded and released an EP entitled Cinco De MihYo, celebrating the annual Mexican/American tradition. This was followed by another EP in March 2018 entitled The Chocolate Box, as well as his collaborative album with Ty Dolla $ign, MihTy in October of that year.
In November 2020, Jeremih was hospitalized in Chicago after testing positive for COVID-19. By November 14, he was reported to be on a ventilator in the intensive care unit. He was taken off the ventilator on November 19 but remained in critical condition. His spokesman said Jeremih has no underlying conditions. Jeremih was transferred out of intensive care on November 21, into a general hospital to make a full recovery. He was released from the hospital on December 4, 2020.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Only you that I'm drinkin' on the day-to-day
All my life, yeah, it's always been fucking pay me
Diamonds dancing on my wrist like Lisa Ray
Players club, now we balling how we supposed to
Graduated to the 'rari, kept the old school
I done ran through new paper, girl, that's old news
Fucking on the pool table, all we broke was rules
That body language, no discussion
The way she move like she fucking
Backwoods full of musty
Deep pockets, you can't touch them
She a bad girl, my RiRi
I'm a bad boy like Puffy
She the business and I mind my business
Keep my mind on you, bae, like it's nothing, oh
Yeah, yeah, I guess I'm for you, baby
I'm holding on you, lady
Told you I'm different
Don't you act distant
Forever I'm ready, yeah
Yeah, yeah, I guess I'm for you, baby
I'm holding on you, lady
Told you I'm different
Don't you act distant
Forever I'm ready, yeah
And I can boost up in the truck
Why we always turning up?
She had me on the first look
I don't think I call this love
Why every time we get up
Doggy style, make her call me daddy
This ain't puppy love
Think you playing with the trip
I got it, it ain't tricking
Plenty champagne to sip
Diamond in, we skinny dip
Know you down to play some games
Girl, you in?
Fucked her on the plane and made a number one hit
That body language, no discussion
The way she move like she fucking
Backwoods full of musty
Deep pockets, you can't touch them
She a bad girl, my RiRi
I'm a bad boy like Puffy
She the business and I mind my business
Keep my mind on you, bae, like it's nothing, oh
Yeah, yeah, I guess I'm for you, baby
I'm holding on you, lady
Told you I'm different
Don't you act distant

When this came out I was homeless, on drugs, and then jail. I now have a house, job, and husband. This song and “Clover Cage - In The Sky” are the two songs that helped get rid of my depression. I just want to send love to everyone and I want everyone to know things will get better. We are in this together..I love you 💕
