Clyde Carson – S.T.S.A. 2 [Album]

Four-and-a-half years since the release of Something to Speak About, Oakland rapper Clyde Carson returns with S.T.S.A. 2. The project was premiered by GoodMusicAllDay, which writes: “A Northern California party rap legend with a string of hits on West Coast airwaves, Clyde Carson’s music is remarkably resistant to trends.” S.T.S.A. 2 is a collection of radio-friendly bangers, painstakingly crafted over a period of years for maximum impact. Featuring hyphy party-starters like “Gettin’ To It,” which Stereogum called “a titanic fart-monster of a hyphy track,” the tropical flavored “Bring All Your Friends,” featuring Mozzy, and the XXL-premiered ratchet turn-up anthem “She Ready,” featuring E-40 and produced by DJ Mustard and Las Venus, S.T.S.A. 2 is packed with Bay Area bangers of all stripes and sizes. Featuring appearances from E-40, Mozzy, Keak Da Sneak, YMTK, and 1-O.A.K., as well as production from DJ Mustard, CT Beats, Drew Banga, and others, S.T.S.A. 2 is a songwriting clinic, with several excellent options for inquiring radio programmers.
