STN MTN finds Childish Gambino grappling with the last decade of Dirty South history. On the the introductory "Dreams" he talks wistfully about his memories of Allanta over the background noise of a radio, classic ATL rappers like D4L appearing briefly before fading away. From there the intro turns into a remix of Ludacris' "Southern Hospitality."

The radio dial proves an apt metaphor for the mixtape itself: it's a mixture of new songs, produced by the likes of Zaytoven and Nick Banga, and classic early 2000s smash hits, remixed by Gambino.

Besides Luda, Lil Wayne's "Go DJ," Maceo's "Nextel Chirp" and Timbaland & Magoo's "All Y'all" receive remixes. The man born Donald Glover also takes on new material, flowing over K. Camp's melodic "Money Baby" and "Move That Dope."
