"Chain Hang Low" is the debut single by Jibbs from his debut album Jibbs feat. Jibbs. The song has gone on to rack up more than 20,000 ringtone downloads in a span of 2 weeks. The video shows adolescents doing the snap dance. "Chain Hang Low" has reached number 7 on Billboard Hot 100. The melody chorus comes from an old minstrel show song called the "The Turkey in the Straw", via the children's song "Do Your Ears Hang Low". Hip-hop blogger Byron Crawford recently listed this song under a genre of music called "Minstrel show rap". It is called such because the chorus' melody is derived from the Minstrel show song "Zip Coon."
