about
The Angel remix of "How It Goes Down" gives what was originally a jungle tune on the 60 Channels “Give Me Your Love” EP, a gritty cinematic treatment.
Once label mates on Delicious Vinyl, producer The Angel (aka 60 Channels) and Slimkid3 of The Pharcyde have recorded together on various records since the nineties.
Slimkid3 is a featured vocalist on The Angel's "Make It Betta" licensed to HBO's THE WIRE. And in turn, The Angel has produced songs for Tre Hardson including "10 Million Ways" and "Get Ya Down."
Slimkid3 is currently on tour in US with The Far Side, formerly of West Coast legends The Pharcyde.
LYRICS
lyrics
This is how it goes down
Yeah, I be on a bandstand, s’ how it goes my man
Life is like a crap game, dealing with poker hands
Aces is wild when you’re dealing with jokers and jacks and queens selling souls for crack
Too late to react, natural Simalac had the world strung way out, they never came back (Uh huh )
Tried to fight for the things that they lacked, but green was the color for counterattack
This is how it goes down
This is how it goes
This is how it goes down
This is how it goes down
I get nuff respect
This is how it goes down
Yeah, I was sitting at home cuttin' side deals with God so my life could be sweeter
Even the odds, check my meters
Make sure that time don’t defeat, but complete us. Due to hard times in the streets
See I be on this bandstand, s’how it goes my man
Life is like a crap game and folded up poker hands
Aces are wild when you’re dealing with jokers and jacks and queens selling souls for greenbacks
This is how it goes down
This is how it goes (how it goes)
This is how it goes down
This is how it goes down
I get nuff respect
This is how it goes down
Yeah, temporarily we be insane riding up against the grain to maintain
What’s always on the mind becomes heavy on the brain
Easy to see through these window panes
Over and over and over again, I’m wide eyed and bushy tailed, in the rain
Easy to be true, but hard to explain
Hard to be you through my picture frame
Been through the times, many times and kicked many rhymes about the times
The times that overlap, the time that I have to spend, the time that I spend within, my friend
Bandstand, goes my man
Yeah, poker hands
Jokers and jacks and queens, backs...
This is how it goes down
This is how it goes (how it goes)
This is how it goes down
This is how it goes down
I get nuff respect
This is how it goes down
Yeah
This is how it goes down
This is how it goes
This is how it goes down
This is how it goes down
I get nuff respect
This is how it goes down
This is how it goes (how it goes)
This is how it goes down
This is how it goes down
I get nuff respect
I be on a bandstand, on the band, my man
This is how it goes down
You know the plan
Universally linked this is how it goes down
Sometimes I laugh at fools, I'm tickled pink
Ha
Understand where I'm comin' from
My broham, this is how I slam
No grams in my pocket for sale
Yes, cause I must fail on the elevation of the spiritual tale
Here's how it goes as we ride down the wave
Understand I be brave as I stand before the eye staring at me
Staring with anger
This is how I see through them like uh, 60 Channels
This is how it goes down
This is how it goes down
60 Channels
And the legend Slimkid3
This is how it goes down
60 Channels
And the legend
This is how it goes down
