Scat was invented by the late Louis Armstrong on the fly during a performance. While singing, his music stand tipped over, dumping his music sheets. He improvised lyrics while an assistant picked up the sheets while he was performing. Scat was first seen in Jazz, and branched out from there. It now hsa uses as varied as one can imagine, often used for filler in a song when words are not necessary, but allow the singer to show their talent with their voice.
That set of skat you laid down on this track is tight!
