"Chillin" is a song by American rapper Wale, featuring American singer Lady Gaga. It was released by Allido Records on April 14, 2009 as the lead single from his debut album, Attention Deficit. Wale had wanted to collaborate with Gaga, and met the singer through a mutual connection with Mark Ronson, the rapper's label boss and Gaga's frequent producer. "Chillin" was composed by a number of songwriters, including Wale and Gaga, while it was produced by Cool & Dre. Recorded in New York City, the song discusses Wale's life in his hometown. It has musical influence of 1990s style rapping, and contains two samples from the 1969 song "Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye" by the band Steam, and the 1987 song, "Top Billin'", by Audio Two.
