The 8th Annual Streamy Awards will take place at the iconic Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, CA on Monday, October 22 at 9:00PM ET / 6:00PM PT and will stream live globally at YouTube.com/Streamys.

"I'm honored and excited to be a part of the 2018 Streamys!" said Montell Jordan, "Celebrating with a live performance of "This Is How We Do It" is a great way to bring the 90's party energy to this event with a classic song we have all loved and shared together for nearly 25 years."

Montell Jordan is one of the most legendary R&B singers of his time, who over his twenty-year career in music has released seven studio albums, 14 singles, and sold more than 10 million records worldwide. The South Central Los Angeles native is best known for his 1995 platinum-selling classic hit "This Is How We Do It," which spent seven consecutive weeks at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 and still resonates in pop culture today. Today Jordan speaks, teaches, mentors, ministers to married couples and continues songwriting and performing.
