Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band – How We Do / Nuthin’ But A G Thang (7″) [Big Crown Records BCR154]

Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band is back with a heavy two-sider of West Coast Hip Hop covers that put a new spin on tried and true classics.

Side A is their cover of Game and 50 Cent’s “How We Do”, one of the standouts from Game’s 2005 debut album. It was their cover of 50’s PIMP that really put Bacao on the map and now they are back to lend their sound to another club hit. Steel pans and horn lines trade-off over their signature heavy drums and breathe new life into this classic.

The B Side is another show stopper. Bacao takes on Dr Dre & Snoop Dogg’s “Nuthin But A G Thang” and give it a proper treatment. Staying close to the original and replaying the iconic synth and bass lines on the pans proves to be incredible. This will be working its way through DJ sets around the globe as soon as it hits the streets.
