1600 Boy B'Al reimagines "You Know How We Do It [Remix]"

There's something instantly gratifying about listening to a track that knows precisely what it is and what it's honoring. And that's the magic we get on 1600 Boy B'Al's new release, "You Know How We Do It [Remix]." It's a fluid, cocky cruise through West Coast memories, all with a hint of that modern-day brag. It's evident 1600 Boy B'Al is not just toying with memories but paying homage even as he clears space for himself on that lineage. The remix is more than a reworking; it's a dialogue between hemispheres, and B'Al is fluent in both.

The beat drops with the unmistakable West Coast groove laid-back, sun-soaked with an aura of nonchalance. But make no mistake, this isn't just thoughtful. B'Al rides the rhythm with an easy touch that is both deferential and delightfully of the moment. His flow is easy, self-assured, and entirely at home in its skin. It is the sort of delivery you get only from an artist who knows his lane and rides it like a classic lowrider down Crenshaw. There's no overreach, no gimmicks, and just a well-played vibe that respects its authenticity. Whether rolling with the windows down or vibing on your own with headphones in, "You Know How We Do It [Remix]" is a moment of calm self-possession, of legacy, meeting the now.

"You Know How We Do It [Remix]" is more than just an homage to the game's golden era but a resurrection. The sample it pulls from, though immediately identifiable to hip-hop heads, is avoided impressively by B'Al. Instead, he injects the remix with his energy and voice, giving it a pulse that sounds very much à la Maison in 2025 without losing its West Coast DNA. If you're a fan of old-school West Coast vitality with a shiny new layer of 2025, this track is for your ears. "You Know How We Do It [Remix]" is a self-assured, head-nodding reminder that some vibes never go out of style, and they mutate.
