6:43Now PlayingThe world has known him as "Chingy" for years, but the St. Louis emcee revealed to VladTV that he originally used to go by the name "Thugsy." The "Right Thurr" rapper explained that in the early 2000s he wanted to move away from the "thug image and name," and gravitate towards something more catchy, thus, how "Chingy" was born.
