Scotty ATL just premiered the visuals for “Nun But A Party” on WSHH. In the video,  IAMSU! turns up with his crews, blunts and double cups in tow, while B.o.B. chills by a fire pit with two scantily clad ladies. Ironically, despite the party vibes, this song feels more like a come down than a turn up. “Nun But A Party” comes from Scotty’s latest release, Spaghetti Junction.

Watch the video below:

There is something major happening right now in the heart of Atlanta. The Cool Club Movement is growing at a noticeably fast rate. The leader, an unsigned indie artist whose rap style can be described as “street motivation,” goes by the name of Scotty ATL. His 2013 mixtape, FAITH (Foreva Atlanta In The Heart), has garnered much attention and features some of the industries hottest such as Big K.R.I.T., Trinidad James, Lecrae and DJ Burn One, whom he often collaborates with. In order to keep progressing the Cool Club Movement, Scotty recently began touring in support of his new mixtape Spaghetti Junction, due out this year. The tour, appropriately named the Road 2 Spaghetti Junction Tour, has already made its rounds in various locations down south with one being in his home of Atlanta.

The Atlanta show was held at Smith’s Olde Bar, a classic Atlanta bar and live music venue that has showcased some of the best national and best local talent. The small, intimate space is perfect for fans to get up close and personal with the artists. In the upstairs area of the bar, fans decked out in their Cool Club merch lined the walls and filled the floor just before Scotty arrived on the stage.

Scotty is known to pack a house. During Atlanta’s 2013 A3C Festival, he performed at 4 different locations, and at each show the rooms and spaces were filled to capacity. If you happened to not be familiar with him nor his music, it is possible to feel out of the loop and a bit embarrassed knowing that Scotty is someone that you definitely shouldn’t be sleeping on.

Scotty emerged on stage with a cool demeanor that could be felt across the room. Sporting his Cool Club fit, he got the crowd hype, particularly with songs off his FAITH mixtape. He performed a crowd favorite,  “Clarity”, which is the perfect song to have you feeling like you are on top of the world. As DJ Burn One stood in the background managing the music, the crowd rapped along with Scotty. His “After Rap” cut had everyone going crazy. In that particular song, he speaks on his aspiration to be successful even after he has established himself as one of the greats in the rap game. “Jumpin’ Like Jordan” rapper, Rich The Kid, made a stage appearance and immediately got the crowd extra hyper. The two recently collaborated on “Bad Boy 97”, a song that is a true homage to P.Diddy and Biggie.

Scotty really got the place turnt with his musical selections and even jumped in the crowd and partied with the fans. Afterwards, Scotty stepped down from the stage to converse with the people in the room and displayed his true southern hospitality. Scotty’s stage presence, the energy of the crowd and the whole experience was enough to get a first time listener enthusiastic about supporting the movement and joining the Cool Club.
