The track employs a synthesized sample of SWV's 1998 single " Rain" (which itself sampled Jaco Pastorius's "Portrait of Tracy") The video was retired on 106 & Park after being on the countdown for 65 days. "Pullin' Me Back" peaked at number one on both the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs charts, giving Chingy his first and third number-one hits respectively. The song also peaked at number nine on the Hot 100, making it his fourth and final top ten single.
