A groovy soundtrack for JK's Vogue shoot

One of my favourite tracks from the early 90s. Nothing like Acid Jazz to get you on your feet and dancing. JK says he listens to everything but has he ever listened to this?

Us3 - Cantaloop (Flip Fantasia) - long version, 1993

[my-chaos-radio]

Release: October 1, 1992

Lyrics:

Ladies and gentlemen

As you know we have something special down here at Birdland this evening

A recording for Blue Note Records

Yeah, yeah, yeah

What's that? Yeah, yeah, yeah

Funky, funky

How 'bout a big hand now

Wait, wait a minute

Groovy, groovy, jazzy, funky

Pounce, bounce, dance as we

Dip in the melodic sea

The rhythm keeps flowin' and drips to MC

Sweet sugar pop, sugar pop, rocks it, pop

You don't stop 'til the sweet beat drops

I sure improve as I stick and move

Vivid poems recited on top of the groove

Smooth my floatin' like a butterfly

Notes set afloat, sung like a lullaby

Brace yourself as the beat hits ya

Dip trip, flip Fantasia

Biddy biddy bop (yeah)

Biddy biddy bop (funky, funky)

Feel the beat drop, jazz and hip hop

Drippin' in your dome, makes you zone and bop

Funk and fusion, a fly illusion

Keeps ya coastin' on the rhythm you're cruisin'

Up, down, round and round, rhymes profound

But nevertheless, you gots to get down

Fantasy freak through the beat so unique

You move your feet, the sweat from the heat

Back to the fact, I'm the mac and I know that

The way I kick the rhymes, some would call me a poet

Poems steady flowin', growin', showin' sights and sound

Caught in the groove in Fantasia, I'm found

Many trip the tour upon the rhymes they soar

To an infinite height to the realm of the hardcore

Here we go, off I take ya

Dip trip, flip Fantasia

Biddy biddy bop (yeah)

Biddy biddy bop (funky, funky)

Biddy biddy bop (yeah)

Biddy biddy bop (funky, funky)

Jump to the jam, boogie woogie jam slam

Bust the dialect, I'm the man in command

Come flow with the sounds of the mighty mic master

Rhyming on the mic, I'm bringing suckers their disaster

Beaucoup ducs but I still rock Nike

With the razzle dazzle, a star I might be

Scribble, drabble, scrabble on the microphone I babble

As I flip the funky words into a puzzle

Yes, yes, yes, on and on as I flex

Get with the flow, words manifest

Feel the vibe from here to Asia

Dip trip, flip Fantasia

Ow, you don't stop

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on

Give me more of that funky horn

What's that? Yeah, funky, funky

Biddy biddy bop

Biddy biddy bop, funky, funky

Yeah, yeah, yeah, what's that?

Biddy biddy bop, yeah

Biddy biddy bop, funky, funky

Yeah, yeah, yeah, what's that?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, funky, funky

Yeah, yeah, yeah, what's that?

Biddy biddy bop, yeah

Biddy biddy bop, funky, funky

Songwriter:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, what's that?

Biddy biddy bop, yeah

Herbie Hancock / Jerry Wilkenson / Mal Simpson / Rahsaan Kelly

for the longest time I'd vaguely remember the song Cantaloop by US3 bc I heard it on the radio quite a bit as a kid and that sweet sweet trumpet riff hooked me; but up till literally this moment as I'm typing, I never knew what the title of the song was. I spent an embarrassingly long time searching hyper-specific terms like "jazz pop 1990's," and "jazz instrumental pop song from the 90's" etc. and flipping through playlists and Top Music charts of the 90's with no helpful results until I just gave up and looked up "funky funky song" (bc of that one bit during the chorus which was apparently the only lyric I retained from the last time I'd heard it) and found it on the second result. 🤦‍♀️

oh and this is the song I'm talking abt btw. if you even care.

[magnetictapedatastorage]

LITERALLY THE SONG OF ALL TIME
