"'''Fly Like Me'''" is a song by American rapper [Chingy](/source/Chingy). It is the first [single](/source/single_(music)) from his fourth album ''[Hate It or Love It](/source/Hate_It_or_Love_It_(album))'' (2007). It features singer [Amerie](/source/Amerie) and has, in Chingy's words, a "mainstream feel" similar to that of the 2005 single "[Pimpin' All Over the World](/source/Pimpin'_All_Over_the_World)" by rapper [Ludacris](/source/Ludacris), who was originally to have been featured on the song alongside singer [Rihanna](/source/Rihanna). The song was released on November 13, 2007 but was a commercial failure as it stalled at number 89 on the [''Billboard'' Hot 100](/source/Billboard_Hot_100), however it went to number 40 on the [Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs](/source/Hot_R%26B%2FHip-Hop_Songs) chart.<ref name=Billboard-Aug2007>Crosley, Hillary. [http://www.billboard.com/articles/news/1050240/chingy-drops-ludacris-beef-inks-with-island-def-jam "Chingy Drops Ludacris Beef, Inks With Island Def Jam"]. ''[Billboard](/source/Billboard_(magazine))''. August 2, 2007.</ref> From October 12, "Fly like Me" was available for [streaming](/source/streaming_media) on [Def Jam Recordings](/source/Def_Jam_Recordings)' official website.<ref>[http://www.defjam.com/site/news.php?news_id=104218 "Hear the New Chingy single "Fly like Me" featuring Amerie!"].
