Chin Injeti (born Pranam Injeti in India) is a Canadian singer, musician, and music producer. He got his start as a founding member of Juno Award-winning group Bass is Base. He frequently collaborates with producer DJ Khalil; together they have written and produced songs for Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, Drake, Clipse, Eminem and P!nk. Injeti's work with Eminem and Lecrae has garnered 3 Grammy Awards, as well as Grammy nominations for Aloe Blacc's Lift Your Spirit and P!nk's The Truth About Love.

In 1993, while students at the University of Toronto, Injeti, Roger Mooking and Ivana Santilli formed the group Bass is Base. They independently released First Impressions for the Bottom Jigglers, which went on to sell 30,000 copies and garner them a Juno Award for Best R&B/Soul Recording in 1994. Their first single, Funkmobile, was an underground hit, eventually receiving heavy rotation on Much Music. This led to opening performance spots for Jamiroquai, Pharcyde, Rheostatics, Crash Test Dummies, Barenaked Ladies and Meshell Ndegeocello.

After the success of Funkmobile the band was signed to A&M Records, and released their second album ‘Memories of the Soulshack Survivors’ in 1995.
