Chain Hang Low was released in 2006 as the debut single by American rapper Jibbs, then a teenager, and built its hook around the children's song Do Your Ears Hang Low. The track became a Top 10 hit in the United States and spread widely through ringtones, radio and early online sharing. Its simple question and answer phrasing made it easy to quote and parody. Short clips of the hook still circulate on social video as a shorthand for showing off chains and playful swagger.
