2 Chainz hooked up with Kanye West for the second single from his Def Jam debut album, Based on a T.R.U. Story. 'Ye also co-produced the track, alongside Sonny Digital (Soulja Boy, Rick Ross). 2 Chainz previously appeared on West's hit Cruel Summer single, "Mercy."

We learn from this strip club anthem that when shopping for 2 Chainz's special day, you're unlikely to find what he wants in your local mall. "All I want for my birthday is a big booty ho," he requests (or in the edited version, "big booty girl").

2 Chainz enlisted West's DONDA design firm to create the album cover, which was shot by photographer Fabien Montiquethe and features the rapper wearing, yep, two gold chains on a black background. The G.O.O.D Music affiliate told MTV News: "That actual cover was me, Kanye, Donda, the whole team over there at G.O.O.D. Music, we had a meeting for like two hours. It was just symbolism."
