My Evergreen Playlist: You know how we do it.

(Edited)

My evergreen playlist track for today is You know how we do it by American rapper, actor, producer, director and writer, O'Shea Jackson aka Ice Cube.

The song which was released in 1994 is the second single from Ice Cube's fourth studio album, Lethal Injection.


Blessed!


This feel good song is a G-funk hit which has the same kind of mood and feeling that takes you through nostalgic feeling of the 80s era.
The song is one of the most successful from that album and you can clearly tell why.


I like Ice Cube's style of rap given he is the founder of the gangsta rap movement and has done really great job taking rap mainstream right from his time with NWA which he co-founded with Dr. Dre and Easy E.

After successfully taking gangsta rap mainstream, he is now into acting and is doing very well in that area as well.


Sing along with the lyrics.

[Intro]
Yeah, yeah
Fool, you know how we do it
Westside
Comin' from the Westside
Nothin' but the Westside

[Verse 1: Ice Cube]
Ain't nothin' goin' on but the bomb-ass rap song
Hittin' all night long
Just like me on the black and white ivory
Gettin' six on the tee-ta-lee, you don't want to see a G
Break yo' ass like dishes
Buster-ass tricks, sleep with the fishes
Runnin' from Lennox, up at Venice
They wanna have me in stripes, like Dennis the Menace
But that ain't poppin', ain't no stoppin'
Fo'-hoppin', ass droppin', Coupe DeVille
My troupe can, ill—fool, I got skills
So, back on up 'fore I check that chin
Down as fuck and I'm full off Henn'
You gets no love and I thought you knew it
Fool, you know how we do it

[Refrain]
Comin' from the Westside
Comin' from the Westside
Westside, comin' from the Westside

[Verse 2: Ice Cube]
Chillin' with the homies, smellin' the bud
Double parked and I'm talkin' to Dub
About who got a plan, who got a plot
Who got got and who got shot
'Cause everybody knows that he got the info
Crazy Toones hangin' out the window
Fool, I got them bomb-ass tapes
Da Lench Mob, "Planet of the Apes"
I'm down with Eiht and Watts Up
Kam and Solo, they got nuts
When Ice Cube write a sentence
I want "The Bomb," just like George Clinton
S-K-D is down to catch a body
Put on "Knee Deep", we'll turn out your party
You gets no love and I thought you knew it
Fool, you know how we do it

[Refrain]
You know how we do it

[Verse 3: Ice Cube]
Jack be nimble, and Jack be quick
If you wanna jack me on a lick
'Cause I'm that fool from South Central
You'll think you stuck yourself with a number two pencil
That's how I poke hot lead in yo' ass
With "Mo' Bounce to the Ounce" in the dash
Mash up, Van Ness, headed for the West
Everything is great, slow down for the dip
On 100 and 8th and keep mashin'
Don't drink and drive, to keep the fo' from crashin'
Stashin' a Glock and I thought you knew it
You know how we do it

[Refrain]
Comin' from the Westside, Westside
Nothin' but the Westside
It's hittin' on the Westside
Fool, you know how we do it
