    (feat. Branford Marsalis (instrumentally only))

    "I would like to play a.. little tune I just composed not so long ago"
    "Ms. Billie, Ms. Billie, Ms. Billie Holiday"
    [HORNS]
    [drum roll] [piano keys played]
    [HORNS]
    "Byrd..?" [trumpet solo] [group horns]
    [Guru] "The music called jazz.."
    [HORNS]

    [Guru]
    It's roots are in the sounds of the African
    or should I say the mother.. bringin us back again
    From the drummin on the Congo, we came with a strong flow
    and continue to grow
    Feet move, to the beat of the t'balo
    Now dig the story and follow
    For then it landed, on American soil
    Through the sweat, the blood, and the toil
    Hear, "Praise the Lord," shouted on chain gangs
    Pain they felt, but it helped them to maintain
    Scott Joplin's rags, Bessie Smith's blues
    St. Louis blues, they were all the news
    Ringin smooth.. in all the listeners ears
    Fulfillin the needs, and plantin the seeds
    of a jazz thing

    King Oliver's group was a train comin through
    to Chicago, bringin the New Orleans groove
    And when Satchmo blew, the audience knew
    Basil Street blues was the whole house tune
    it was music.. great to dance to
    Great to romance to with a lot to say to you
    Relaying a message, revealing the essence
    of a jazz thing

    [DJ Premier cuts "jazz music"]

    In the 40's came be-bop, the first be-bop
    The real be-bop, so let me talk about
    Diz' and Byrd, givin the word
    Defining how a beat could be so complete
    Playing with ferocity, thinkin with velocity
    About ornathology, or anthropology
    and even ?, and this is real history
    Theolonious Monk, a melodious thunk
    No mistakes were made with the notes he played
    His conception, was ?re condite?
    A star glowing bright among dim lights
    The critics did cite that he sounded alright
    Charlie Mingus, such nimble fingers
    Droppin the bass, all over the place
    and Max Roach, cymbals socking
    Bass drum talking, snare drum rocking
    Restructuring.. the metaphysics
    of a jazz thing

    John Coltrane, a man supreme
    He was the cream.. he was the wise one
    The impression of Afro Blue
    and of the promise, that was not kept
    He was a GIANT step, and there was Ornette Coleman
    He was another soul man
    The original invisible, playing great music
    I wonder why the ?Bangles? couldn't use it
    Now listen see
    The real mystery is how music history
    created by white men or any other white man
    that pretended he originated "uh-huh.."
    and contended that he innovated "uh-huh.."
    a jazz thing
    ("Of course we know who can really blow")
    Scheamin on the meaning
    of a jazz thing

    And this music ain't dead, so don't be misled
    by those who said that jazz was on it's deathbed
    Cause when Betty Carter sings a song
    ain't nuttin goin on, but simply good music
    And you won't refuse it
    She's takin her time, makin the nuances rhyme
    Sonny Rollins, tenor saxophone
    with a big old tone, recitin poems
    with notes as words, and haven't you heard
    NEXT STOP BUTTER, RIGHT PAST OLEO
    Now there's young cats blowin
    And more and more people, yes they will be knowin
    Jazz ain't the past, this music's gonna last
    and as the facts unfold, remember who foretold
    The 90's, will be the decade of
    a jazz thing "I love jazz music" [x3]

    [Primo scratches "I love jazz music"]

    A jazz thing...
