Montel Jordan "This Is How We Do It": Classic or Dud?

hahahaha

Ah, yes, the great Montel Jordan.http://www.pr.com/upload/article_image_1137990345.jpg

Too bad his TV talk show is going off the air soon.

:-p

guess I'll say classic, I remember when it came out (think I was in middle school) and it still draws a good response...while out in Miami in 06 at a club, everyone went nuts when it came on, moreso than the other 90s-tunes that got played.

i love how he says friday

THIS IS HOW WE DOOOO EEHT ON FROYDAAAAAY NOIIIIIGHT

yea, his dipthongs were pretty typical of the time period, that's what I always liked about the song though.

best single of the 90s

no.

it's classic but no.

im goin with classic but id be slightly annoyed if i heard it again

"Get It On Tonite" is better... I might be the only one who thinks so anyway.

q: is this how we do it?

That was how we did it

i always wanted to get montel to do like an anniversary remix single called "this was how we did it" which would have been an unquestionable smash hit.

this is probably my favorite song of all time

so on a scale of your choosing, how pumped would you be for an anniversary remix featuring special guests called "this was how we did it"

fairly pumped

apologies to billstevejim for not seeing this thread sooner cos i TOTALLY ADORE 'get it on tonite' and would have said so! except maybe the mix with ll on if i'm being picky.

i was even thinking of polling the save the last dance soundtrack a while ago as an excuse to rep it but it seemed like too much bullshit on there just for a 5-way battle that donell jones wouldn't have won.

Amazing facts about Montell Jordan taken from his wikipedia page:

The song also states his unusually tall height of 6'8"

Jordan graduated summa cum laude [from Pepperdine] and was a state finalist for the Rhodes Scholarship.

During his live performances he generally gives more of a rock-oriented performance, with Jordan even going as far as to wear sunglasses while on stage.]

classicest

I never realized until recently that this song is lyrically so open about the creator's intent to make cash and be a one hit wonder

he had two hits! :)

("get it on tonite" was the other one and it's better)
