Critical reception
Matt Cibula of PopMatters was positive towards "One Call Away", admiring Chingy for taking on a rap ballad saying "It’s kind of adorable that he’s talking to her on the phone about politics and life when he can’t be with her, and his voice gets all softened when he talks about her, and his homeboys call him weak when he gives her a kiss on the cheek, but he doesn’t care, because he knows that she’s always just one call away from him, and vice versa." ==Music video==
Music video
Directed by Erik White, the video takes place during autumn and follows Chingy going to the DTP Bank in his Cadillac, where he attracts the attention of a bank teller (played by actress Keshia Knight Pulliam) by giving her his phone number along with the deposited money in a canister tube for her to have. Their relationship starts out slow with her hanging out with his friends in his apartment, she and her friends watching him play streetball to both of them going back to his apartment to get intimate with each other. The video features the chorus of "Chingy Jackpot" at the end. Streetball player Philip "Hot Sauce" Champion appears in the streetball scene in the video. ==Track listings==
