As far as I’m concerned, the biggest Difference between Booth favorite Pay$0z and his peers is that where most are satisfied to develop a formula and stick to it, the Brooklyn up-and-comer seems unable to tread the same ground twice, dropping records with little in common save that they’re all pretty damned good. For example, you wouldn’t expect to hear the man who brought us hard-hitting street cut Theory flowing over a sample of Eiffel 65’s Blue (currently enjoying a resurgence in popularity thanks to Flo Rida‘s Sugar), but on this new promo single (making its online premiere right here in the Booth), that’s exactly what he does.  Centered around that maddeningly catchy “Da ba dee, da ba bie“snippet, Goodwill’s synth-heavy instrumental is aimed squarely at club rotation, but that doesn’t stop Pay from giving it his all on the mic—the rapper’s energetic, always-engaging flow is the biggest contributor to this record’s success.  Fans can hear more of of Pay$0z’ unpredictable yet invariably fresh musical stylings on his Booth-cosponsored Against the Grain LP, coming soon.

3 and a half stars. and 2 and a half alone come from the sample :D (jk) but no really, his flow is coo. i wish there was a lil more of the sample in there, but this song is nice. it goes in rotation.

This gets rotation simply for Pay$0z' intensity and energy in his rhyme style. The production is just average for me, and the sample just makes me laugh and shake my head. I'm not sayin it didn't work kinda well, I was just thinkin "not this again." Anyway I liked his verses, so its in.

Wow they flopped that sample. It was not a good combination of Pay$0z rapping/singing (whatever it was) and "I'm Blue" in the background. His verses were decent but they could have done that sample a lot better.

I got "Sugar" on repeat to this day. That song is so damn catchy.

Hard to feel the energy from a sample like that when he's flowing over it in half time. Wiz Khalifa did the same over "Say Yeah," but he killed it. This comes off sluggish, especially during the hook.

Production did a disservice to the flow.

I happened to like the sample, but the rest was a little off. Didn't really get with the flow or vibe on this, but this might be somethin I hear in a club.

Same great energy, loads of enthusiasm, sharp delivery, and solid rhymes. Goodwill pulled off the sample quite nicely (without it being annoying like the original version), but I can safely say it can now be retired once and for all.

Overall, another step in the right direction for a talented Booth favorite.

Attempt at a banging club record and the beat bangs and he sounded a lil Jay-Z like at parts, it was good overall.

Damn, this is pretty sick I'm not gonna lie. The rapping is hot. But yeah, I do agree that the sample was not needed. It would've been better w/o but whatever- I like it!!
