So…I had the opportunity to travel down to Atlanta this past summer to check out a damn-near Macy’s Day Parade of up-and-coming artists at the Apache Café (including little-known talents such as Playboy Tre, B.o.B, and Yelawolf. You might have heard of them). Among this smorgasbord of great emcees was Stanza, and from the second he hit the stage, he made sure that everyone knew his name (and his capabilities) by the time he had exited. Further proving his musical capacity, the Atlanta Entertainer has given the Booth another track to talk about with his new street single D.U.I. With an addictive beat (via Big Rus) that’s two parts schizophrenia and three parts unique, the track sounds as drunkenly fun as the night being relived. Stanza manages to make his bars equally distinguishable, bouncing between vocal highs and lows throughout the course of his flow, letting everyone know that “a car, some clothes, some liquor, and money” is all he needs for a good time on a Saturday night. D.U.I. is not currently part of a set project, but keep it locked in to the Booth for more from Stanza and friends.

I don't endorse the chorus of this record (any of our under age members reading this: do not drink and drive - okay I'm off my soapbox), but the entire thing is super catchy. Just like many of his fellow ATLiens, Stanza has some unqiue skills on the mic.

This is creative. Dj booth put me up on Donnis, Pill,The Embassy and most recently The Canz.ATL officially now has a new sound. They are more lyrical. This is def rotation stuff.

I'm feelin this track. I wouldn't quite call it a banger, but it is way catchy enough for rotation. The pulsing beat is hot and his flow was nice.

For whatever reason, it ends up more mildly annoying than an interestingly dope listen. 2.5

I extremely appreciate the comments on this posing. The good and the bad. In no way am I endorsing drinking and driving. But if i were is that any worse than shooting up the competition, selling drugs, and @*#$! every girl in the world? Hmmmmm just a question. LMAO!!! Thanks again to the Booth for your continuous support. FYI to the people with ears... LISTEN!
