Like its predecessor, It contains mostly previously released songs along with a few exclusive, previously unreleased songs. The album peaked at #85 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. Got Ta Hustle, Make It Happen, and 4 Days In Cali are all previously unreleased and are exclusive to this album. The song Got Ta Hustle was released as a 12-inch single

## Critical reception

Jason Birchmeier of Allmusic wrote: Overall, there's little to complain about. Even the lesser artists turn in excellent performances, and while it's tempting to dismiss the No Limit songs for being out of place on a West Coast rap collection, the two chosen songs -- "Down for My N's" and "Got 'Em Fiending" -- both have an obvious West Coast sound to them. So what you have is 19 standout songs from Priority's vaults that illustrate everything that's wonderful about the West Coast gangsta sound. And, finally, it's also important to note that this isn't the aggressive side of gangsta rap, but rather the funky side of gangsta rap. The fact that Priority includes a classic like "Funky Song" rather than something from N.W.A, for example, perfectly illustrates the sort of vibe they're going for here

# Baby Driver – Music from the Motion Picture

Baby Driver – Music from the Motion Picture is the soundtrack album to the 2017 film of the same name. The soundtrack was released on June 23, 2017, on CD, vinyl and digital music via the Columbia Records imprint, 30th Century Records. The album features a combination of artists, from various decades, including Blur, Run the Jewels, Sky Ferreira, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, Queen, The Beach Boys, The Commodores, The Steve Miller Band, Simon & Garfunkel, and Golden Earring.
The film takes its name from "Baby Driver," a song from the Simon & Garfunkel album Bridge over Troubled Water. The song is played during the end credits. Edgar Wright, who wrote and directed the film, consulted James Gunn, who wrote and directed Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, before the release of Vol. 2 and its soundtrack to ensure the two films did not feature the same songs on their soundtracks.
The soundtrack features three original tracks: a cover of the Commodores' "Easy" by Sky Ferreira; "Chase Me" by Danger Mouse (featuring Run the Jewels and Big Boi); and "Was He Slow?" by Kid Koala.
The soundtrack won the Empire Award for Best Soundtrack at the 23rd Empire Awards.

# John Sinnott (politician)

John Sylvester Aloysius Sinnott (9 May 1905 – 10 August 1960) was a Liberal party member of the House of Commons of Canada. He was born in Saint-Ouens, Manitoba and became a farmer and implement agent.
Sinnott attended school in Saint-Ouens, then studied at Manitoba Agricultural College. From 1936 to 1944 and again from 1950 to 1951, he served as reeve of Brokenhead, Manitoba.
He was first elected to Parliament at the Springfield riding in the 1945 general election then re-elected for a second term in 1949.
In 1952, Sinnott voted for the creation of a pension for Members of Parliament of $3,000 per year if the MP has served in parliament for at least 17 years. This proved unpopular in his riding and he was defeated in his attempt to win his party's nomination for the following election. He then reversed his previous position and led a fight in the House of Commons against the creation of pensions for Members of Parliament and introduced a bill to make MP salaries fully taxable. He opposed the government on a number of measures. The local Liberal Party defeated his attempt to win the party's nomination for the next election and he ran as an Independent Liberal instead.
In the 1953 election, Sinnott ran as an Independent Liberal candidate and was defeated by Anton Weselak of the Liberal party.

# Kribi Power Station

Kribi Power Station is a 216 MW natural gas-fired thermal power plant in Cameroon.

## Location

The power station is located in the community of Mpolongwe, approximately 10 kilometres (6.2 mi), by road, north of the coastal town of Kribi (est. pop. 60,000 in 2007), in Océan Department, South Province, on the Gulf of Guinea, at the mouth of the Kienké River. This location lies approximately 150 kilometres (93 mi), by road, south of Douala, the largest city in Cameroon and the busiest port in the country (est.pop. 2 million in 2005).

## Description

Kribi Power Station is owned and operated by Kribi Power Development Corporation (KPDC), an affiliate of AES Group, an American power generating company that also owns Cameroon's power distribution company, AES-SONEL. The power station is designed and built to generate capacity output of 216MW by burning natural gas provided by National Hydrocarbons Corporation (SNH). The plant is also designed to use diesel, if the natural gas is unavailable.
The power generated under a voltage of 11 kV is transformed by step-up power transformers (5x 60 MVA, Siemens) to be transmitted via a 225 kV double circuits high tension transmission line of approximately 100 kilometres (62 mi) to Mangombé, near Edéa, where it is integrated in the national electric grid. Moreover, a step-down transformer (36MVA, Siemens) enables feeding Kribi under 30 kV. At completion date, the 216MW of electricity supplied by the plant increased Cameroon's generated capacity to 1,233 MW. Hydroelectric plants supply 720MW (58.4%) and thermal power plants supply the remaining 513 (41.6%).

## Construction costs

Construction of the power station is budgeted to cost about US$390 million (CFA:176.3 billion). Of that US$132.5 million (CFA:60 billion) is provided as a loan, by a consortium of banks led by Ecobank. The African Development Bank (AfDB) will lend another US$64.3 million (EUR:45 million). The remaining US$193.2 million (CFA:87.5 billion) will be sourced from other lenders.

## Timeframe

Construction began in March 2009. Commissioning was completed in June 2013.
