about

ATOM SMITH takes a decided left-turn with his latest release. Resisting the obvious temptation to rehash past glories, the Los Angeles producer instead revisits his collaborative partnership with Californian rapper BURKEY. idol-io.link/backitup - the single BACK IT UP is an innuendo-laden, Alternative Hip Hop funky jam that leans towards Swing Hop yet remains defiantly curveball. It's out now on all platforms.

Check out the Official MV here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=B6F9YarA0Sk
Filmed on location in LA, the video features local colour from the world famous Boardwalk on the beach front. Featuring Burkey and Samy Starborn.

lyrics

I asked her what it do though
Told her bust a conk
Baby hit a blue note
So high got ya
Higher than ya muggles
Don't snap when your cuddles
Ya dig?
Cool, smell ya later
Ship it all away
Time to Lindy on a freighter
Ship ship it all away
Ship ship ship it all away

King kong
Gang-bust
Barrel house
Back it up against me
Break it on down like an illegal entry

King kong
Gang-bust
Barrel house
Back it up against me
Break it on down like an illegal entry

Back it up
Back it up

You a square
I'm a Devinaire
Charlie on his Chaplin
Dolly got her chapstick
I'm a just put this right here
Baby let's...
Go skins
Gimme some skin
Cut a rug like a barber down south
Jitterbug like ya got 6 counts
And you won't see the light of downtown
For long a long while
Time to shake it right now

Back it up
Back it up

Cut a rug like a barber down south
Jitterbug like ya got 6 counts
And you won't see the light of downtown
For long a long while
Time to shake it right now

Cut a rug like a barber down south
Jitterbug like ya got 6 counts
And you won't see the light of downtown
For long a long while
Time to shake it right now

Back it up
Back it up

King kong
Gang-bust
Barrel house
Back it up against me
Break it on down like an illegal entry

King kong
Gang-bust
Barrel house
Back it up against me
Break it on down like an illegal entry
