"'Caramel'" is the second single released from American hip hop trio City High's self-titled debut album. The single, released on September 11, 2001, features American rapper Eve. It was produced by Giscard "GIZ" Xavier and written by Ryan Toby. "Caramel" is the group's second-most-successful single, peaking at number 18 on the US 'Billboard' Hot 100 and number nine on the 'Billboard' Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Tracks chart in January 2002. The track contains vocal samples from the song "Silent Treatment" by the Roots.

Music video



A music video was produced for the song that begins with the original version and transitions into the Trackmasters remix version. It begins with a shot of Ryan Toby and Robbie Pardlo on a computer that shows the words "Dream Girl 2001". It then cuts to a shot of Ortiz singing the first verse, and then the trio is dancing at a party as Ortiz sings. The video continues switching from Ortiz singing on a couch, the trio at the party, and Ortiz boxing Zab Judah. As the third verse, the first not sung by Ortiz, begins, it features the guys in a car. The video switches to Eve on a motorcycle and starting her rap. The video ends with Toby and Pardlo still in front of the computer, watching the video.
