Chunky
Chunky is a song by American singer Bruno Mars from his third studio album 24K Magic (2016). It was solely released as a radio single in Australia on November 29, 2017 by Warner Music Australia and Atlantic, and served as the album's fourth single. "Chunky" was co-written by Mars, Philip Lawrence, Christopher Brody Brown, and James Fauntleroy. Mars, Lawrence, and Brown produced the song under their alias, Shampoo Press & Curl. Musically, "Chunky" is a funk and electro-funk ballad, while lyrically acting as an anthem for big buttocks. The track received mixed reviews from music critics. They noted the resemblance between "Chunky" and the works of rhythm and blues artists from the 1980s and 1990s. The song reached number 79 on the UK Singles Chart and 34 on the French Singles Chart in 2016, as well as was certified gold in the United States by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Mars performed "Chunky" during his 24K Magic World Tour (2017-2018), as well as on television shows including on Saturday Night Live in October 2016 prior to its release.

Examples of Chunky in a Sentence
British Journalist Katie Hopkins:
We give fat really cute names, don't we ? we have baby weight, puppy fat, love handles, muffin top, chunky monkey -- ultimately these are all nice names for something that's not very nice... You're supporting Kelly Clarkson because everybody likes to have a fat friend, because the great thing about a fat friend is it makes you feel slimmer.
Clean out. I ’d knock the Chunky Soup from him. From 2004 ! Trust me.
