Every so often a nude scene gets paired with a song that, for better or worse, ends up making it that much more memorable, and in honor of its eighth and final season dropping next month, we’re highlighting all the skin against the soundtrack of the Showtime series (now part of Paramount Plus) from Emmy-winner Lena Waithe, The Chi.
One would expect a show set on the South Side of Chicago, a Mecca for electric blues, house, gospel, jazz, and more, to be heavy on the tunes. Especially one that lists Chicago rapper and actor Common as one of its producers. And The Chi does not disappoint, filling its episodes with songs- and the occasional spicy nude scene. In fact, every nude scene so far in The Chi involves music, so we at SITKON have decided to break down each one, starting with the premiere episode.
Every Nude Scene From The Chi (So Far)
Nine minutes in series star Birgundi Baker introduces her topless tatas to the sounds of Chicago’s own Taylor Bennett’s single “Cake,” which is exactly what she delivers after slipping out of her undies.
Ep. 01x01 | 00:09:01 Birgundi bares boobs and buns while trading oral favors with a guy before they're interrupted by his mom! (1 min 38 secs)
****
Episode 2 of the first season has Tai’Isha Davis flashing some funbag during some frantic couch sex and the soulful single “You Can’t Find Love” by Texas duo Betty and Charles. You can't find love, but with the magic of SkinVision you can find Tai’Isha’s right boob!
Ep. 01x02 | 00:06:12 A nice look at Tai'isha's right breast as she gets busy with a guy on a couch! (42 secs)

Then in Episode 3, Birgundi’s breasts briefly return when the arrival of her mother has her and her man scrambling to the Boulevards number “Got to Go,” because, well, he got to go if he doesn’t want to lose his favorite appendage.
Ep. 01x03 | 00:07:04 Birgundi is nude in bed with a guy when her mother comes home and she ushers him out the window, her breasts exposed the entire time! (29 secs)

There’s only one bit of nudity in the second season, during another couch sex scene in the third episode. This time, Hannah Hall takes out her T’n’A to tunage provided by another Ch-town native, Queen Key. The perfectly titled song is called “Spenda Nite”. Even more perfect? The album it’s from is called Eat My Pussy.
Ep. 02x03 | 00:50:30 Buns and some distant boobs from Hannaha as she has sex with a guy on a couch! (20 secs)
****
Season Three, Episode 2 features a sensual deep-tissue massage and some ass cheek from Yolanda Ross. Her moans punctuate the slow jam in the background, “So Alive” by LA artist Dre Kroon, and then switches to a more upbeat track when she notices his huge hard-on and they get to boning!
Ep. 03x02 | 00:46:25 Brief buns from Yolonda as she gets a massage with a happy ending! (2 mins 11 secs)
****
After that, fans had to wait until Season Six for more nudity, which came care of Birgundi again. In Episode 8, she grinds away to what sounds like a “Cupid Shuffle”-esque song that poses the age-old question “Whatcha gonna do with that big, big booty?” It looks like we’re seeing the answer!
Ep. 06x08 | 00:05:25 Birgundi Baker bangs away on Jacob Latimore for a little morning action as a thank you for taking some time off work! (33 secs)
****
Finally Episode 10, has Birgundi taking a topless ride to Ari LaShell’s Caliente, which has great lines like “It's been a minute since I really got to see my legs on your shoulders” and “I wanna feel your body heat when we're in the sheets.” If that’s not a song made for sex, we don’t know what is!
Ep. 06x10 | 00:25:00 Burgundi interrupts your regularly scheduled program with her beautiful breasts when she and her man stop watching TV and start crunching buns on the couch. (1 min 9 secs)
