Lyrics
Ayo! my main man Scott
Chris from the block
We got that new sound fresh off the lot
Nice with the hands, show the fans what you got
Let us rock
just a couple measures / hear the bass sound when the mão touch the leather
Hear them things shaking, that’s just the platinelas
Influences we’re mixing together
Let me start the lecture
The first texture’s from South America
the people speaking Portuguese in the area
You see the blue, yellow, green, and you know the deal
Yes got the pandeiro from Brazil
It seems like a tambourine, but in Brazil tamborim is another thing
Travel to the Middle-East see another thing
Oh that’s the riq, daf, drum from the Basque, native sound-bath
All around the world, every culture, they have
You might even find a migration path
Traveled with the mercantile
cause it carried around and now we bring it “full-circle” now
Now, here’s the second part of the sound
Let me show you how it’s going down
US: powwow drums, tambourines in New Orleans
hmmmmm, the frame-drum family
It’s the +1 mixed with the +55 huh
86 the doubt, we’re 2nd to none
It’s Brasil and the USA
Louisiana and Pernambucano, the state
And zydeco’s kind of like forró
and the second line is like maracatu tho
Plus this unlikely merger of two folks;
like two river intersecting, it’s a new flow
