Psychopathic Rydas
Psychopathic Rydas is an American hip hop group based in Detroit, Michigan. Formed in 1999, the group consists of Psychopathic Records-associated rappers performing under alternate stage names in the style of gangsta rap. The group's current lineup consists of Insane Clown Posse,TwiztidDrive-By, and Boondox. Anybody Killa was on the albums Check Your Shit in Bitch! and Limited Edition EP in 2004, left the label and group in 2007, and returned in 2011 for the albums EatShitnDie and Backdoor Ryda EP.
Neme Encarnacion aka Myzery (Twin Gats) was on the album Dumpin' in 1999. Rashaam Attica Smith aka Esham (Converse) was on the albums Check Your Shit in Bitch! and Limited Edition EP in 2004. David Hutto aka Boondox (Yung Dirt) was on the albums Duk Da Fuk Down, EatShitNDie, and Backdoor Ryda EP from 2007 to 2011.
Psychopathic Rydas reuses the beats of popular rappers within the genre without paying to license the original songs or requesting permission from copyright owners to use the music, effectively making their albums bootlegs and resulting in the releases becoming difficult to find in some markets. Psychopathic Rydas' debut album, Dumpin', was originally given away for correctly answering a series of trivia questions printed in the liner notes of Insane Clown Posse's album, The Amazing Jeckel Brothers. Although Twiztid and Blaze Ya Dead Homie left Psychopathic Records, they are still members of the Rydas group.

Classics IV
The Classics IV is a band formed in Jacksonville, Florida, United States, in 1965. The band is often credited for establishing the "soft southern rock" sound. The band, led by singer Dennis Yost, is known mainly for the hits "Spooky", "Stormy" and "Traces", released 1967 to 1969, which have become cover standards.
Career
Early days
The group began as a Jacksonville cover band consisting of guitarists J. R. Cobb, Walter Eaton, keyboardist Joe Wilson, and singer Dennis Yost. Cobb and producer-manager Buddy Buie (died 18 July 2015, in Dothan, Alabama, from a heart attack) would later form The Atlanta Rhythm Section with Candymen drummer Robert Nix (died on May 20, 2012, at Baptist Memorial Hospital in Memphis, Tennessee, at age 67, from complications following surgery; he suffered from diabetes and multiple myeloma), also from Jacksonville, and keyboardist Dean Daughtry in 1974. Yost had previously been a member of The Echoes. The name "The Classics" came from the Classic drum set Yost owned. He was known in the Georgia/Florida area as the "stand-up drummer" because he played standing up. The Classics played Ventures covers, instrumental versions of "Misty" and "Summertime." People started requesting vocals, so Dennis would say "I can sing that," and that was the beginning of the group's new direction. The group began performing vocal hits such as "Sherry" by The Four Seasons.
Stormy (song)
"Stormy" is a hit song by the Classics IV released on their LP "Mamas and Papas/Soul Train" in 1968. It entered Billboard Magazine October 26, 1968 peaked at #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. This single release along with the prior release of Spooky, and soon after the release of Traces, made great success for the band, apart of the well known songs from the ensemble. The song was covered in 1978 by Santana on the album Inner Secrets.
John Legend, heavily samples the song in his single, "Save Room".
