Many will remember Donnis as the “dirty, dirty South,” representative on Unstoppable (Regional Remix), a cut that met with largely positive reviews when it hit our front page last week.  Now, the up-and-comer’s back in the Booth with his first solo feature, an uptempo record that sees him sippin’ on gin and juice as he details just how a Party Works down in A-town.  Flaunting his impeccable taste in cars, liquor, and women, Donnis doesn’t stray too far from the party-rap formula, but the emcee’s rapid-fire delivery invests the tried-and-true subject matter with an exuberance that’s hard to resist.  The Trackoholics take a less conventional route on the instrumental tip, pairing some surprisingly tension-fraught piano chords with striking background vocals and, of course, a generous dash of bass-booming percussion.  An intoxicating cut sure to take root in listeners’ heads after a spin or two, Party Works, is set for inclusion on the artist’s forthcoming, self-titled LP, which has yet to receive a solid release date.

This song first appeared on the Independent Chart on March 30, 2009

Atlanta Hip Hop has a bright future if all of its up-n-coming representatives can exude the same energy and excitement as Donnis does on "Party Works."

Works for me... rotation and then some.

I'm kinda torn wit this one...

I like Donnis' flow and intensity, but it just doesn't sound like nothin that special to me. I also like the energy in the production, but its just too much goin on at once. Cut out those pitchy backgroud vocals and it would be more listenable for me.

Nah, I don't really like Donnis' flow on this track. And there isn't really anything special being said, and the chorus is borderline annoying. The beat would be decent for the club.

Heard this one a little while back on DJ Benzi's "The New Deal" mixtape. I wasn't big on it then, not real big on it now, either. There were about 6 or 7 tracks on that mixtape that were better. With that said, there is a ton of energy on here and would do well in the club. Since it's already there, I gotta rate it In Rotation.

Damn this works the beat throughout the song is a head nodder. The lyrics are good and his fast flow on the hook brings some energy. In rotation
