B.o.B - Do You Have the Stamina
Artist: B.o.B
Featuring: Kanye West
Producer: B.o.B
Album: B.o.B vs. Bobby Ray Mixtape
Label: Rebel Rock/Grand Hustle/Atlantic
One of the more popular trends in urban music is embattled split personalities (see: Beyonce/Sasha Fierce, T.I./T.I.P., and Cassidy‘s The Problem/The Hustla). The only artist to use his multiple personalities interchangeably, however, is Bobby Ray Simmons, who gives equal time to laid-back soul/funk persona Bobby Ray and lyrical beast B.o.B.. These two alter egos go head to head on the Green Lantern/Don Cannon-hosted B.o.B. vs. Bobby Ray mixtape, which features Booth-approved cuts Mr. Bobby and Put Me On off the Bobby Ray side and Change Gon Come and I’m That N*gga from the B.o.B. side. The third Booth feature from the latter side expands upon the feelings Kanye West expressed in Pinocchio Story. Over his own sampled beat, the ATLien points out the many downsides of life as a celebrity and poses the question, Do You Have The Stamina? Though most of us would answer that question in the negative, the on-point lyricism that both collaborators bring to this cut should get a resounding “Yes!” from our regulars.

Taking that Kanye moment to create a whole song was a great idea and B.o.B. pulled the production off like a genius! The music is just amazing: the strings go hard and harmonize beautifully, no wonder why the percussion is reminiscent of "Amazing".
Particularly liked the first verse, the flow was nice, but the lyrics were too straight to the point, I prefer more creativity. |

First off, great mixtape. Secondly, this is one of the tracks that caught my eye. Very smooth work from the B.o.B. part of the album. Can't wait for an official drop date for his freshman CD.

Bobby Ray is so damn talented. This song 5 seconds in is classic to me already. Damn that beat change for his rapping fit perfectly. Eminem needs to do a verse on this. Then release it as a single.I have to Go download that mixtape now. Kanye needs to bless this with a verse as well, I guarantee he loves this song by the way. Damn near flawless.

Oh snap! I would have never thought anyone could sample what I call the most heartfelt song from Kanye EVER!
Leave it to B.O.B to do it. Sidebar: I shed a tear during "Pinocchio Story" BTW. True Story Bobby Ray's lyrics were so deep and real on here. It's nuts man. That's how it really is. Like for example, will people look at Chris Brown for a man that made a mistake and is very sorry and wants to move on or will they forever remember him as the beater of Rihanna? Good ish. I'm actually a fan of B.O.B, but I will not lie, when I saw that the mixtape was out a few days ago, I ended up ignoring it and not downloading. IDK why. But leave it to the good folks at DJBOOTH.NET to get me back on track *Downloads the mixtape now. |

Leave it to B.o.B. to transform the most boring song on Kanye's album into something enjoyable and entertaining. This is a perfect example of the talent Mr. Ray showcases on his new mixtape!

This man never ceases to amaze me. I've been trying to download this mixtape since it was released but I'm traveling and can't find a good connection...
His flip of this song makes for an absolute work of art, pure classic.. b.o.b. = Best of Business. bobby ray deserves more credit. |

I loved B.O.B/Bobby Ray's mixtape, and this was one of my personal favorites off it. I am excited for his Debut CD, because if it's anything as good as this mixtape, I'd buy more then 1 copy. I don't think I've heard one disappointing song from B.o.B/Bobby Ray since his release. Definitely a banger!

B.o.B is obviously pretty well-schooled in both the arts of producing & MCing.
Im amazed by how much great material these guys are putting out for free. @MH - Tell that to Nathan.S :p Obviously what Chris did was wrong & she didn't deserve it, that's not a question. Anyhow, I don't think he's a total monster, he's just as @*#$! up as the rest of us, but in his own way. |

Well put top hat. We all make dumb moves at some point in time, what sucks is having the public eye hold a magnifying glass over you with the son beaming down through it. Chris did what alot of men do, he is no more or less guilty than anyone who has done that. Lets get him some help, let him do his community service and get back to the music he makes. The kid @*#$! up. Point blank period, lets move on.

Agree with Z, it was the most boring song. Heartfelt and sad, yes. Boring, yes.
This song would appear in the booth the night before Michael Jackson dies... R.I.P. |

@sunday morning- umm.. yeah thats cause it not a dance song, not every rap song is a club joint you know, listen to the lyrics of a song fam.
Anyway is just me or does B.o.B have a way of getting his bars across even if you aren't a person who pays attention? |

Nice production on this, I love it. The sample of Kanye was dope. While the production is stellar, I think the lyrics are ok. They are over-shadowed by the beat (the beat is intoxicating). Im giving this banger status for the production alone.

Using "Pinocchio Story" as a sample really makes this song go hard. That was a heartfelt song that is being used to do another heartfelt song. This song goes hard. Looking out for BoB to do big things in the time to come.

Never listened to B.O.B's music before, but i'm pleasantly suprised, really wasn't a fan of 808's, mostly because I love the rapping Kanye, but taking the sample for the hook is genius.
Production is real nice with the piano and really like the kick drum. |

Bobby Ray is definetly in my top 5 favorite ARTISTs not just rappers artists. He spits what he feels and his production is always spot on. This man is a true artist not only catering to his fans but making dope music and showing the world whats really on his mind.

Its not really featuring Kanye West its just a verse that kanye west said in a freestyle and made a song out of it. Still its a really great song although still disappointed that Kanye West is not really featured in it.
