@ClydeCarson @AdamXXL:
Staying on your grind can pay dividends—Clyde Carson is a testament to that. The Bay Area native, who’s been putting out solo projects and group work as a member of The Team for over a decade, enjoyed the greatest success of his career with his hit “Slow Down.” The West Coast anthem remained on constant rotation on radio, spawned dance videos, and birthed a remix featuring Gucci Mane, E-40, Game and Dom Kennedy. Here, the MC talks about performing at Power 106′s Cali Christmas, the reception to “Slow Down,” his new mixtape and more. —Adam Fleischer
