Clyde Carson, member of legendary Bay Area hyphy group The Team, is preparing to drop Something to Speak About 2, the rapper's first new project in 3 years (though if you played GTA V, you probably heard his 2012 hit "Slow Down"). "Gettin To It" featuring Keak Da Sneak is S.T.S.A. 2's lead single, and it premieres today on The FADER. Clyde's sleepy-eyed flow still sounds like pure motivation over the beat's gummy synths, as he and Keak intricately describe their wrists, wardrobes, and anything else their sizeable bank accounts can enrich.
"I made this record and it felt like Keak's energy would be the right fit," Clyde Carson told The FADER over email. "Him and I had a show together, and so I hit him up about it and played it for him and he agreed and blessed me. For me, it feels like things were coming around full circle on this, as Keak was one of the first people in my corner and he helped me and my group The Team early in our careers."
Something to Speak About 2 is out January 27. Preorder it here. Read The FADER's profile of the Bay Area's hyphy movement here.
