We interrupt your regularly scheduled DJBooth visit to bring you this special report: a man named Adam has been murdered in a loft apartment in Harlem.  Leading the investigation is veteran producer 88-Keys, whose past clients include Q-Tip, Talib Kweli, and Musiq Soulchild.  Also on the case is Kanye West, who is responsible for co-executive production.  Together, the men have deduced that after a bad string of relationships, Adam decided to scoop up some Viagra in order to help him Stay Up longer.  After listening to Keys and West’s description of the crime, however, plenty of questions remain unanswered.  So, how exactly does Stay Up (Viagra) play into The Death of Adam?  Find out October 28 when the complete report is delivered to online retailers and stores nationwide.

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on September 2, 2008

"Now ya'll can have sexy time, its niiice," love the Borat reference from Kanye. This was song was suprisingly pretty good.

LOL. Stay Up. I was losing hope in Kanye with some of the new trash he was putting out with that voice box, but this is classic Kanye. I didn't even know 88 has clout like that to even get Ye on a track! This is a mad original topic and a pimperish production. Smooth!

Haha fresh joint here. I like the concept, this is humorous lyricism which always entertains me. Kanye drops a pretty good verse and the production is sub-par, but the lyrics make the song worth listening to. If this 88 guy has Kanye on his side he's got a legit shot.

I don't think the beat matches with the lyrical content. The beat sounds way too serious. yea, sometimes the beat should match what you say.

I love this right here. I been using that play on slang alot since hearing this song. Viagra! Stay up ya'll. The concept of this song is hilarious. The beat is fire, Kanye kills it as usual.

Now THIS is an interesting concept. He's making an entire album revolving around "The Death of Adam"? That alone deserves some props.

Kanye is crazy!!!! Not Cassie and Kim Kardashian. This beat is smooth, you can step to this like "Flashing Lights". 88-keys did his thang, lovin it. I'm agreeing with Kanye, this is Classic. Not to mention halarious and will eventually become someone's theme song. This is the 3rd song today I'm giving 5 stars, it must be a good day~(**)~

The concept is original and originality ALWAYS gets love in my book. Great production, very engaging, Kanye always kills it when he isn't making out with autotune. Nice record.

Wow:), to clear up your question on what is on his head:

hat

n.

1. A covering for the head, especially one with a shaped crown and brim.
2.
a. A head covering of distinctive color and shape worn as a symbol of office.
b. The office symbolized by the wearing of such a head covering.

And that's my 2 cents...and then some. Peace!

Mad track!

88 kills it with the production, and Kanye keeps it original.

'Now ya'll can have sexy time, IT'S NICE!'
