[2] Stones Throw released "Faden Away" along with "Hit Da Pavement" on a cassingle on December 10, 2013, with both vocal and instrumental versions.
The song, mixed by Shon Lawon and Cole M.G.N., was produced by Riddick under his stage name Dâm-Funk and the vocals were performed by Broadus under his latest moniker Snoopzilla.
Snoop discovered that Dâm-Funk had an instrumental track called "Fadin" from his 2012 EP I Don't Wanna Be a Star!.
[7] The vintage-looking footage was directed by Henry DeMaio, and features Snoopzilla donning a jerry curl wig while performing alongside Dâm-Funk at a smoke-filled house party in Los Angeles.
[13] On December 10, 2013, the music video for "Hit Da Pavement" premiered on VEVO and serves as the continuation of the plot in "Faden Away".
[14] On October 21, 2013, 7 Days of Funk debuted their single on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, along with another song from the album, titled "Do My Thang".
[15] Backed by a full band during the performance which was highlighted by an appearance from Don "Magic" Juan, Snoopzilla and Dâm-Funk both wore matching white gloves, and Dâm played his keytar, then destroyed it in celebration.
[18][19] For Conan O'Brien, 7 Days of Funk enlisted their whole band, including hip hop producer Terrace Martin.
Richard Spadine of DJBooth complimented the song, writing that "Snoop's Autotuned come-ons and his partner's keytar-driven electro-funk grooves coalesce into an eminently catchy end product".
