95 South was the Miami bass duo of AB (Artice Bartley) and Daddy Black (Carlos Spencer) from Jacksonville, Florida. The group's name is a reference to Interstate 95, which passes through the city. Their biggest success was the 1993 hit "Whoot, There It Is" (produced by C.C. Lemonhead & Jay "Ski" McGowan, then known as The Bass Mechanics, who would later be known as the 69 Boyz and the Quad City DJ's), which reached #11 on the Billboard Hot 100. The similarly-named song Whoomp! (There It Is) was by the group Tag Team.
The duo have also remixed songs for artists including Jordan Knight and Dru Hill.
