Begin with a groove, some delicious, soulful melodies interwoven with genres including jazz, neo-soul, lo-fi hip-hop, jazz sub-genres/  with spoken word tricks in the mix with programmed drums, turntables, looping  in Sonny Rollins, Elvin Jones, Hubert Laws, Lonnie Liston Smith/  add some house music word with a vibrant, rhythmic pulse packin' the dance floor/ so hey, whatcha say to the DJ as he's laying down beats, experimenting with melodic hooks and some nasty background  heat/   double scratching Rick James Super Freak and pumpin' up the supa dupa bassline from Mary Jane Girls All Night Long to the party hardy dance house crowd/  ethereal pops of sound synergy drops/ man, hit me with a lo-fi boost so I can spit out my word anthem I'm sparking off now the heat be flowin' down to my dancin' feet/  I dig  the Crooklyn crew is bringing back Break Dancin' with their signature freestyle/   they even brought their cardboard dance floor/  they be makin' moves and cuttin' grooves/ I hate to go but I'm outta here/  gotta jam into the poetry slam
