Stat Quo
Stanley Benton, better known as Stat Quo, is an American rapper, producer, songwriter, and entrepreneur.〔Shaheem Reid (12 January 2004). "(Mixtape Mondays: Stat Quo )." ''MTV''. Accessed 5 February 2008.〕 Benton worked his way to college and attended University of Florida, where he majored in economics and international business in 2000.〔 Benton was contemplating law school, until veteran Southern rapper Scarface encouraged him to rap professionally. In February 2003, Stat Quo released his first installment of the ''Underground Atlanta Mixtapes'' and caught the attention of Aftermath Entertainment associate Mel-Man. When Stat Quo was in L.A. performing at Encore, Mel-Man invited him to Record One Studios where he met Dr. Dre. That night at Record One, Stat Quo recorded the song ''The Future'' with Dr. Dre and released it on the second volume of his ''Underground Atlanta Mixtapes''. ''Underground Atlanta Volume 2'' made its way by a different route to Eminem and led to Stat Quo's record deal with Shady Records and Aftermath Entertainment.
After 50 Cent, Stat Quo was the second and only other artist to date signed to both Shady Records and Aftermath Entertainment; he became Dr. Dre and Eminem's newest protégé.〔Admin for Aftermath Blog (26 October 2008)."()."
