Scat

In Jazz Vocalization, scat singing is vocal improvisation with nonsense words and syllables or without words at all. Scat singing gives the vocalist the ability to sing improvised melodies and rhythms, to create the equivalent of an instrumental solo using their voice.

As a matter of fact you don't let nothin' hold you back 'cause if Scatman can do it, so can you."
