Lyrics: [Chorus} Oh you know me so much better Than I could ever know myself And if I take direction learn my lesson Then you’ll still leave with someone else (Repeat) [Verse 1] Boy are you down to be the only one with the key to my little heart If you are, time to show and prove, boy you know just what you got to do To make me yours, you gotta get up and into something Oh no one’s made it telling fables watching tables turn Be cool, but not so cool you can’t be schooled Do you take me for some type of fool? [Chorus] [Verse 2] I’m not sure you’re the one true love that this rolling stone will ever know When I’m on tour, do you even call do you ever think of me at all Cause you got me so caught up in a sticky situation, well I’m about to rock your world You and your homies swear you know me but you don’t know a thing if you thought I was that type of girl you know me [Chorus] {Bridge] Want you to hold me down not just when nobody but you and me around and baby you know that it’s time to put some respect on my name now that you see I ain’t came here to play your games Oh you know me [Chorus} {Vamp (Spoken)] Oh you know me so much better baby Than I could ever hope to know myself And if I take direction learn my lesson Then you will still leave for someone else – Alright (Repeat) [Outro: Rickey Vincent] Westside Swing on 1990 FM Riding on a song You don’t have to hurry This vibe will be here after we are gone...

Lyrics: Yeah Yeah Oh [Verse 1] Cuffing season came then left And left me with a couple dollars to sustain myself Perhaps it's time I call for help (yeah) 'Cause traces of your fingertips still linger on my breath A spliff or five may ease the pain My spirit worn, my inside torn, I'll never feel the same [Chorus] But I can't find another guy Not yet we haven't tried And I get so teary-eyed, when I see the stripes on your Adidas I can't find another guy Not yet we haven't tried And I get so teary-eyed, when I see the stripes on your Adidas Yeah [Scatting] Lucid lover leave me alone (yeah) A breath of spring fell softly on the leaves and now you're gone Trade me for your bag of bones You's a vagabond who can't decide which side ethe fence he's on [Chorus]

about

An ode to 90’s R&B, Amerigo Gazaway and Xiomara’s “1990” album is a nostalgic love letter to an era that redefined the genre. Known for his work reinterpreting classics, Gazaway (most recently tapped by the Miles Davis estate for his work on the lost Rubberband sessions), steps out of his role as a remixer and gives Bay Area artist, Xiomara, the bedrock for her voice to flourish.

With her breakout 2016 release “Seven Nineteen,” Xiomara’s soulful debut took home top rankings in SF Weekly’s “5 Best Bay Area Albums of 2016” list and led to guest spots on releases from Son Little, Blu, and Oh No to name a few. Leaning heavy on Xiomara’s songwriting and arrangement chops, the newly formed duo spent the last year crafting a collaboration as original as it is reminiscent.
