Jazz Cats Pt. 1

[Verse 1: Quasimoto, Madlib, Quasimoto & Madlib]

Yo I be getting lit, sitting back listening to Sun Ra

Early George Benson on down to Hampton Hawes

Steve Kuhn, George Cables on the Fender Rhodes

Cedar Walton and Herbie Hancock drop the heavy load

Gene Harris and the Three Sounds for soul-jazz listeners

Bobby Hutcherson, Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers

Horace Silver, ("Bill Evans") to Terry Gibbs

On the vibe Gary Burton and album archives like Donald Byrd

George Duke and Lee Morgan

Shirley Scott, Groove Holmes and Jimmy Smith up on the organ

Gene Russell, the Art Ensemble of Chicago

Innovators like Michael White push out the Cal Tjader

Classic shit like Weather Report or Max Roach

Laid back like Freddie Hubbard trumpet notes

Cannonball Adderley, Eddie Harris, Milt Jackson

Like Ron Carter's basslines will beat you like a backspin

[Interlude: Madlib, Quasimoto, Madlib & Quasimoto]

Yeah, like a backspin

Jazz

We got the jazz my man

Yo

[Verse 2: Madlib, Quasimoto, Madlib & Quasimoto]

Yo, who's got skills like Rahsaan Roland Kirk

Or conduct like William Fisher, go to work with the swisher

Bumpin' John Coltrane up in my headphones

Gary Bartz, Mister Rub produce Lovetones

Even Kool and the Gang got jazz for that ass

Modern Jazz Quartet always got the A class

Johnny Hammond met Carl Saunders

Paul Bley, Thelonious Monk and Norman Connors

Albert Ayler, John Coltrane, McCoy Tyner

Dizzy Gillespie is presented by Don Sebesky

I be cranking mad jazz, got mad stacks of cool-out

You know we pull the smoke tool out

I give props to Blue Note and Black Jazz

Impulse, CTI Records and Plusga

Verve to Milestone, Atlantic and Muse

There's plenty more that I could name but ya'll won't put them to use

[Outro: Madlib, Quasimoto, Quasimoto & Madlib]

Anyway I love jazz, my man

("Jazz— jazz—")

We got the jazz

We got the jazz, my man
