I Am Chipmunk is the debut album by British rapper Chipmunk, released on 9 October 2009 by Columbia Records. Unknown to many, the album was originally scheduled to have been released the year before: one being 4 May and the other release date being October.[citation needed] It produced four consecutive top 10 singles, including one chart-topper. The album was deemed a success after it debuted at No. 2 on the UK Albums Chart[9][10]

In-line with its record sales, a new platinum edition of the album was released on 3 May 2010 featuring four new songs,[11] including the single "Until You Were Gone" featuring Dutch singer-songwriter Esmée Denters.
