[edit] Song Information
The song doesn't directly involve King Kong, the fictional giant ape. Instead, it is a reference to a loud, powerful speaker system with loud subwoofers, with ultra high sound pressure and is a "bass shaker" in the back of a car trunk. The reference originates from King Kong Electronics, a place in Houston, Texas that sells car audio and peripherals, mainly high-end subwoofers and head units. In the music video, the monster truck at the end has the words "King Kong" on the side in the same font as in the title for the 2005 remake of King Kong.
[edit] Remix
A remix to the song has is released with vocal addition of Lil Wayne, Yo Gotti, and Chingy. king kong puts subwoofers to the maximum test (i disagree that it puts them to the test.. id give the song a 7 out of 10 for bass)
[edit] Chart Performance
King Kong has managed to debut on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 recently at number 96. The single has so far not proved to be doing as well as Chain Hang Low. After debuting at number 96 instead of ascending it descended 2 spots to 98 where Chain Hang Low was already in the top 40 by the second week. By the third week it climbed up to number 87. It has so far peaked at number 54.
