Straight To The Bank chords by 50 Cent

"Straight to the Bank" is the first single from 50 Cent's third album, Curtis. The song is produced by Ty Fyffe with additional production from Dr. Dre. Tony Yayo contributes with a laughing effect in the chorus. This stuttered laughing effect was then later copied by Lupe Fiasco on his song, The Coolest, from Lupe Fiasco's The Cool. Six days after the song was leaked on the Internet, it debuted at number 48 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and peaked at number 30 weeks later. "Straight to the Bank" debuted at number 32 on the Billboard Hot 100 on the week of May 26, 2007. 50 Cent performed the song live for the first time at the highly touted WBC Super Welterweight Championship fight between Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Oscar De La Hoya on May 5, 2007, at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, Nevada, while leading Mayweather's entourage into the ring. On MTV, the music video was released on May 17, 2007, after the "Amusement Park" video, which was released on May 16, 2007. On December 31 of the same year, the music video appeared at number 83 on BET's Notarized: Top 100 Videos of 2007 countdown. At its highest, "Straight to the Bank" hit number 3 on the iTunes single chart; however, due to the Curtis album being delayed, the song was removed from the iTunes library. Read more on Last.fm.
