Songfacts®:

  • "Just How You Like It" is a song by producer K.A.D. and British rapper Kak Hat. They released the single via Sony Music on January 15, 2021.
  • Over K.A.D.'s house beats, Hatt drops some explicit raps about smoking blunts, having sex, and his skills on the mic. He also mentions that he wrote these rhymes during lockdown.
  • The song went viral in October 2023 when its opening verse started being used to soundtrack geezer videos on TikTok propagating charvas culture.

    Chav and charva are both labels for white British working-class men, but they have different meanings and connotations. Chav was a pejorative term that emerged in the early 2000s, while charva is a self-adopted identity that comes with a distinctive culture and lifestyle. Charvas are obsessed with their appearance, often sporting a deep tan and wearing high-end Under Armour sportswear. They are often found in pubs boshing pints of lager and snorting cocaine.
