For almost 30 years, Montell Jordan’s “This Is How We Do It“ has been the gold standard of party anthems, a timeless jam that still gets crowds moving. As it turns 30, Jordan collaborates with a rising Pop and R&B star, Max Rae, for an electric new take, “How We Do It.” It’s a celebration of success, unity, good vibes, a full-blown reinvention for a new generation, and not only a nostalgic window to the past.
At first beat, “How We Do It“ captures the same charismatic magic that turned the original into a cultural milestone. The song combines upbeat dance-pop with smooth R&B undercurrents, resulting in a sound that feels familiar and excitingly new. Max Rae’s sharp, bold vocals keep pace with Jordan’s signature presence, demonstrating the true magic of a party banger never dies but transforms.
Its lyrics radiate joy, confidence, and togetherness, which would feel like an instantly inviting song to walk into a dance floor. The production is polished and vibrant, mixing the classic sound of the ’90s with a modern touch that integrates seamlessly within today’s pop landscape. But whether playing over speakers at a club, pumping up a party, or scoring a perfect night out with friends, “How We Do It“ was made to bring people together.
Its official music video leans into that energy even harder, delivering a ton of movement, flair, and squander. It’s proof of the lyric’s message at its heart, music is ageless, and every generation deserves its anthem as a vessel for jubilation. Max Rae is emerging as a force in the business, and partnering with Montell Jordan is more than just a co-sign. With “How We Do It,“ they connect periods, proving that the legacy of a hulking hit stands the test of time while leaving room to create new memories.
