“Custom Cars & Cycles” was released in 2009 and came as the debut album from the Triple C's (Carol City Cartel). Lead by Miami's Rick Ross, the Dirty South Rap group, who also include members: Gunplay, Young Breed and Torch (the latter of whom is from the Bronx. Although active for many years, it wasn't until Rick Ross' third album when the group were ready to hold up as a unit that could rely on the support that Ross had gained through his consistent ... ...Floridian drug-based Gangsta Rap material. 1.“Custom Cars & Clips” (Intro) 2.“White Sand” Off a pretty heavy opener, we see that here they kick things into high gear and come up with a heavy jam and one that features the type of lively production (linked into a catchy hook) that gives you the feel of the Dirty South in its peaking 2005-2006 years and so it shows that this crew are attempting to bring those days back as they start from here and get ...

...Gift From Silk” came as a 2005 Christmas EP from the Atlanta R&B quintet, Silk. Known for their association with Keith Sweat and in particular their hit single “Freak Me” (an R&B classic that would be covered by the UK's Another Level” in 1998. Consisting of only two full tracks, it isn't much from them, but sees them showing what they have to offer for this time of year. 1.“Happy Christmas” (Intro) 2.“Make Time For Christmas” After opening it all ... ...happens is they come with a rather confused Doo-Wop adaptation to the song and really go nowhere with it to bring just another wasteful tune before coming to an abrupt end with an outro following directly off it. 4.“Merry Christmas” (Outro) This really isn't a Christmas EP that I can recommend at all.
