Cool Breeze
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cool Breeze is a 1st generation Dungeon Family artist, and creator of the hip hop term, and subsequent song "Dirty South". The song is featured on Goodie Mob's 1995 debut lp "Soul Food", and the term has become the "unofficial" name for describing the hip hop nation's southern region. Cool Breeze has appeared on many Dungeon Family albums, and has appeared on songs with other artists such as Kurupt, Rick Ross, Lee Majors, Nivea & Eightball. In 2001, he joined up with two rappers from a group called Sniper Unit and became known as Freddie Calhoun. The name "Calhouns" derives from the street in the East Washingotn Neighborhood of East Point, GA, Calhoun Avenue. Calhound Avenue runs through Martel Homes and to surrounding outside streets. Cool Breeze makes references to Calhoun Avenue, Martel Homes, O.J. Hurd Homes, Cleveland Avenue, Washington Road, Stone Road, and other known East Point, GA locations thrroughout his rhymes.
