Last time we heard from Mayer Hawthorne and hip hop producer Jake One (known together as Tuxedo), they were offering some funky holiday cheer with their remake of Paul McCartney’s “Wonderful Christmastime.”
Today, the duo offer up even more fantastic vibes on “Number One,” a take on Nate Dogg's part from Snoop Dogg's classic “Ain't No Fun (If the Homies Can't Have None).” As soon as the beat drops, it makes you want to drop everything, grab your honey, and hit the dance floor!
You can’t deny…this just feels gooood!
Tuxedo’s self-titled album is slated to arrive on March 3. Pre-order above!
