SoundScan Info

Just thought I'd clarify that the SoundScan sales total I added for the single is verified. The total downloads in the U.S. for "Ridin'" are 1,248,531 as of 9/24/06, though it is falling on the chart (only sold 13,700 that week). Note that is for the regular single, not for the ringtone.

I need to listen to them so I can confrim that they are real songs, where did you listen to them Bazel 21:08, 21 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You need to listen to them? Why you need to confirm? That is a official remix! Chamillionaire even leaked it to the internet! ~Sassychick1898

They're real man

There's a promo single out for the LA one, atleast. Has clean, dirty, and instrumental of the remix. (Rishi B 00:04, 11 July 2006 (UTC))[reply]

Redirect from "riding dirty" entry?

When querying "riding dirty", I was redirected to this entry. However, there is no explanation of how "riding dirty" relates to this article. Perhaps somebody could include that information in this article.

Anyone who would search for riding dirty would think that it is the name of the song, as it is repeated constantly throughout it. That's what I thought the song was. Therefore, anyone who would be redirected here would already understand why. Theunknown42 05:46, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, I was looking for the definition of the term, not info about the song. Lizard sf 16:48, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I'd also like to know what the term means. --Arctic Gnome 05:54, 4 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hey everyone! URBAN DICTIONARY! oTHErONE (Contribs) 10:10, 23 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It's either a re-direct to Ridin', or a definition. The term 'Ridin' Dirty' miscomcepted as the real song name is more highly used then the term ridin' dirty, which would describe something. Therefore it is logical to re-direct the 'Ridin' Dirty' link. pirkid 03:30, 30 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Racial profiling < Actual mentions of vehicle/traffic violations

Multiple references in this song bring up vehicle violations that would result in a police officer making a traffic stop: Window tint being too dark, stereo being too loud, drunk/wreckless driving. Let alone shooting somebody.

In any of these instances where the driver would get pulled over, the mere fact that the person had violated a law, no matter how small, may result in a warrantless search of the car (Whren v. United States). If that were the case, then the weapons described in the song, unless having a CCW, would be a felony. If large amounts of cash were found as well, then it could be seized due to a possibility of narcotics trafficing.

I'm just saying that the song complains about being pulled over for racial profiling, yet multiple reasons are given to be pulled over without racial profiling.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by D crest13 (talk • contribs) .

Not to mention multiple warrants our for his arrest?140.247.47.139
This may be true, but I don't see how this could be added to the article without it seeming very POV. —JeremyBanks Talk 03:53, 22 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Flaming thing

What is the flaming thing behind Chamillionaire? It was Pac-Man on Weird Al's version.

Its The Color Changin' Click & Chamillitary Entertainment logo, the Chameleon. Bazel 18:38, 5 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

air pollution?

How is this song about air pollution? Jedi feline 05:40, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

parody

There's no mention of White and Nerdy on this page at all. Given that Chamillionaire has stated that he enjoyed the parody of Ridin', and the parody's success has in turn boosted the popularity of the original song, I think there should at least be one sentence at least mentioning it... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.235.249.80 (talk) 19:51, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:RidinChamillionaire.jpg

Image:RidinChamillionaire.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Ridin' Dirty the UGK album

Can anyone explain why "ridin' dirty" in lowercase redirects to the article Ridin' while "Ridin' Dirty" with capital letters redirects to the Ridin' Dirty album by UGK?

TuckerResearch (talk) 09:59, 30 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. Ridin' dirty should redirect to the album now. Jafeluv (talk) 13:52, 3 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Its not LA remix its the official west coast remix the one with Dj quick and Game I dont know about the rest though...

I listened them and I agree, they aren't even remotely related to the orginal song, although I don't listen to rap music regularly myself. Leavebeaver2me
