Montara Lyrics by Madlib

Shades of Blue: Madlib Invades Blue Note

2003

[Part I: Montara]

[Dahveed Nelson]
Groovin', I said groovin'
Dig it, groovin'
So groovin', groovin', groove
G-g-g-groove on
G-g-g-g-g-groovin'
And and and and
Whew, slow and mellow rhythm two
Aha, that's what I said
Slow mellow rhythm, you know
Groovin' and black
Slow mellow rhythm
Dig it

[Greg Nice & Smooth B]
M.A.D. 
I drop jewels

[Pete Rock]
Rock the house and
Rock the house and
Rock the house and da—
Rock the house and da—
Rock the house

[Grand Wizard Theodore]
O-oh
O-oh
O-oh
O-oh

And we don't stop

[Jazzyfatnastees]
Do what you want, do what you like
Do what you feel, do what you need

[Grand Wizard Theodore]
To the beat

[Jazzyfatnastees]
Do what you want, do what you like
Do what you feel, do what you need

[Grand Wizard Theodore]
Clap your hands

[Dahveed Nelson & Felipe Luciano]
Somebody [?]
Jazz, yeah! Jazz put you on a swing
In a project playground, backward all the way
As someone giving you a push backwards
Were to start you on your journey up

[Part II: Outro]

[Leon Spencer]
Hi, this is Leon Spencer
One of the greatest organists in jazz and funk
We're tracing back the origins of hip-hop with Madlib
Who is also a scorpio
Like Lou Donaldson and Leon Spencer
