Montell Jordan - This Is How We Do It

 

Double LP

Montell Jordan celebrates 40 years of Def Jam with This Is How We Do It vinyl reissue!

Def Jam 40 and Montell Jordan have teamed up to share a special edition of his classic album This Is How We Do It. This marks the first reissue since the album's initial release in 1995.

This Is How We Do It reached No.4 on Billboard's Top Hip-Hop/R&B Albums chart and features the classic '90s single of the same title, which earned Def Jam its first Billboard Hot 100 No.1 hit.

The title track to Jordan's 1995 debut album reigns as one of the decade's most anthemic R&B moments. Settling somewhere between a sample and an interpolation of iconic golden era rapper Slick Rick's cautionary "Children's Story," Jordan's upbeat calling card captures a moment when the hip-hop and R&B worlds intertwined in a mutually appreciative way.

The runaway success of "This Is How We Do It" naturally casts a triumphant shadow over much of Jordan's career. The track topped the Billboard charts and earned the singer a Grammy nomination. But there are plentiful other moments on Jordan's debut that point to his knack for songs that exude a relaxed, feel-good atmosphere.
