“Whoopty” is a song by American rapper CJ. The song was initially self-released on July 30, 2020, before being re-released by Warner Records following his signing to the label. The song reached number 10 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart in February 2021, and has reached the UK top three and the Billboard Global 200 top 10. The song samples Arijit Singh’s “Sanam Re” (2015).
“Whoopty, bitch, I’m outside, it’s a movie, huh (whoopty)
Blue cheese, I swear, I’m addicted to blue cheese
I gotta stick to this paper-like loose leaf
Bitch, I’m ’bout my chicken like it’s a two-piece
You can have your bitch back, she a groupie
She just swallowed all my kids in the two-seat (skrrt)
Swagged out, for Milly we bringing them gats out
I still got some racks stuffed in the trap house
Off the ’42, I’m blowing her back out (blowing her back out)
I’m back on my bullshit, swing back with a full clip
They say I’m moving ruthless, and my shooters, they shooting
I don’t shake ’til thеy Ruth Chris (my shooters, my shooters, they shooting)”
The song contains a sample of the Indian song “Sanam Re” (2015) by Arijit Singh and Mithoon. It is reminiscent of Brooklyn drill and marks a departure from CJ’s melodic rapping. CJ said he received comparisons to late rapper Pop Smoke, because of the song’s drill sound. He said in an interview with HipHopDX that Pop Smoke’s absence inspired “Whoopty”, who he considers the artist that popularized the music style. He attributed its popularity to the energy conveyed in the track and its video.
