"Tipsy" is a recorded by American rapper J-Kwon. It peaked at number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 on April 17, 2004, after 14 weeks on the chart, and it peaked at number 2 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks, being held off the top spot of both charts by Usher's "Yeah!". Outside the United States, "Tipsy" peaked within the top ten of charts in Australia and the United Kingdom, but on the UK R&B singles chart the song had peaked at number 1. To date, "Tipsy" has been J-Kwon's biggest and only hit, with his next single "You and Me" being a moderate success peaking in the Top 20 on the U.S. Rap chart.
In the video, So So Def recording artists including Daz Dillinger, Jermaine Dupri, Murphy Lee and Da Brat make cameo appearances. Comedian and actor Lavell Crawford also makes an appearance at the end as J-Kwon's father.
The official remix (frequently referred to as "Still Tipsy") features fellow St. Louis rappers Chingy and Murphy Lee. Sway DaSafo sampled the song's beat for "Pepsi", an anti-drinking spoof song on his debut album.
