Dave East and Vado are proving to be an incredible duo on wax with each one of their releases. The two Harlem natives deliver nothing but dope bars for their fans with each one of their releases and it seems as if they're gearing up to release a joint project in the near future. Over the past few months, they've released singles like "God Bless The Summer" and "Blue Hundreds." Today, the two of them bring it back to Harlem as they tackle Dipset's "Once Upon A Time" for a new remix.

Dave East and Vado get together to put their spin on Dipset's reunion track, "Once Upon A Time." The production choice is a perfect fit for their bar heavy styles as they put on for their hometurf. It's another fire record from the two of them. There's no hook on the record and the two of them just go in for nearly five minutes straight.

The release of "Once Upon A Time" marks the second release from Dave East over the weekend. The rapper also went in on Blocboy JB's "Rover 2.0" for "Maybach." East has been steadily on the grind over the past few months and it seems like he's getting ready to have a big 2018 ahead of him.

Quotable Lyrics
Kanye buggin' out, the hood don't really give a fuck
Supportin' Trump, I can't relate, really got n*ggas sittin' up
They violatin' Rosa Parks, we done got on a different bus
