"Tipsy (In Dis Club)" is the first hit single from the R&B group Pretty Ricky's self titled album. It is the first single released featuring new lead singer Lingerie.

Viral Video

The song gained notoriety after Pretty Ricky member Spectacular Smith released a video of himself issuing "a challenge" to "everybody out there grinding," notably mentioning other male artists such as rapper Bow Wow, R&B singers Omarion and Trey Songz, and R&B boy band Day26. He also hyped the new lead singer of Pretty Ricky, Lingerie, and played the song. He then proceeded to do a sensual dance, wearing nothing more than a pair of red briefs. Various people have given video responses either answering or parodying the challenge including noted Internet celebrity, Tila Tequila. The artists mentioned in Spectacular's original challenge have yet to respond to the challenge, and refused to comment on it during interviews.

The release of the video sprung speculation of Spectacular's sexual orientation. The artist responded by saying that although he made the challenge to other male artists (who would supposedly respond by making similar videos), that the video is strictly intended for "the ladies" viewing pleasure, and that it was not intended to be seen by those who mocked his sexuality (assumed male viewers). "Tipsy (In Dis Club)" received high rotation in clubs everywhere, the song climbed the charts and debuted at #52 on the Billboard Charts, making "Tipsy (In Dis Club)" Pretty Ricky's biggest hit since Pretty Ricky's 2007 smash hit "On The Hotline".
