"Jello" is a song by Asian-American hip hop group Far East Movement, released in the United States on 1 November 2011, initially as the lead single from their upcoming fourth studio album Dirty Bass. However, due to poor charting the song was later cut from the album. The song was produced by the Stereotypes and features rapper Rye Rye. The hook of the song interpolates part of Pimp C's verse of the song "Big Pimpin'" by Jay-Z.
