Editor's note

Plies, the Fort Myers rapper with a direct Southern flow

His 2007 hit 'Bust It Baby Pt. 2' with Ne-Yo brought his blunt Florida style to the mainstream.

For the full picture, start with 'Bust It Baby Pt. 2' and then check 'Family Straight'. That's the core of his sound.

Plies gave Southern rap a specific Fort Myers address. 'Bust It Baby Pt. 2' was the track that made his approach click for a wider audience, pairing his straightforward delivery with Ne-Yo's hook. Songs like 'Family Straight' and 'Kitty Kitty' kept that same unadorned, personal energy going.

He broke through in 2007 with The Real Testament and 'Bust It Baby Pt. 2'. Da REAList and Goon Affiliated followed, along with collaborations with T-Pain and Snoop Dogg. Later years brought some film roles and periodic music releases.
