Nyle Kalin Parrish (born June 2, 1981), better known by his stage name Clyde Carson, is an American rapper who formed the local hip hop trio the Team in the early 2000s, with whom he released four studio albums.
Carson remains best known for his 2012 single "Slow Down", which entered the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart and was featured on the 2013 video game Grand Theft Auto V. He blends hyphy with street-styled rap.
Then in 2002, Carson moved back to California and formed the hip hop group The Team, with local Bay Area rappers Mayne Mannish and Kaz Kyzah.

[9] He explained the deal falling through by saying, "timing wasn't right", the person who signed him left the label and the studio head died.
[12] Following its release, a DJ named J-12 invented a dance specifically for the song, inspiring dozens of kids to upload their own versions to YouTube.
[22] Then for the rest of 2013 he would be featured on albums from other rappers, including The Game's OKE: Operation Kill Everything, E-40's The Block Brochure: Welcome to the Soil 6 and Ya Boy's Rich Rocka.
[20] The EP contained production from DJ Mustard, League Of Starz, Dez Dynamic and Sho Nuff, with guest appearances including D-Lo, August Alsina and Master P.[27] It was met with generally positive reviews.
Jameel Raeburn of XXL said, "A lack of variety may be the main detractor for new listeners on Playboy EP, but overall the project is filled to the brim with tracks that slap.
Clyde has carved himself a solid niche with his consistent party anthems, and Playboy is a strong soundtrack to his own player antics.
