"Tipsy" is the title of a song recorded by J-Kwon. It reached number two on the Billboard Hot 100, being held off the top spot by Usher's "Yeah!", and number four in the United Kingdom. To date, "Tipsy" has been his only hit, with his next single "You and Me" being a moderate success peaking in the Top 20 on the U.S. Rap chart.
In the video, So So Def recording artists including Daz Dillinger, Jermaine Dupri, Murphy Lee and Da Brat make cameo appearances.
The official remix (frequently referred to as "Still Tipsy") features fellow St. Louis rappers Chingy and Murphy Lee. Sway DaSafo sampled the song's beat for "Pepsi", an anti-drinking spoof song on his debut album.
The song was featured in the films Breakin' All the Rules, White Chicks and Soul Plane, as well as in the video game L.A. Rush. J-Kwon performed the song on the Season 29 finale of Saturday Night Live.
