An early style of American-born popular music that came about as a result of fusion between ragtime, blues, folk and classical in the early 20th century. Its style is very heavily rooted in West African tradition while taking some conventions from European classical music, with swung notes, blue notes, heavy syncopation and (generally) complex chord progressions (though it really depends on the style). Because it’s been around for so long now, it has evolved to such an incredible degree that the OG jazz you would listen to in 1920s Louisiana (Dixieland) is vastly different than something you would hear in, for example, the 1970s (Fusion). As a result, there are so many different sub genres to choose from if you’re getting into it, each with their own quirks. From swing to bebop and gypsy jazz to smooth jazz, there’s something for just about anyone.
Jazz is also a method of looking at music in both a compositional and performance sense. There are many tunes and genres today that make use of this, such as lo fi hip hop and funk.

“In the Mood” by Glenn Miller is a classic jazz tune. So are “Mr. P.C.” by John Coltrane and “Minor Swing” by Django Reinhardt.

Get the jazz’s wordmug. Originating from the name Jasmine, the action of having so much drip, swag , and sex appeal that men and women fall in love instantly with you. The victim usually gets no return on investment.

Get the Jazzedmug. Usually one of prank masterminds, also the one who sometimes ends up RECEIVING the pranks. He's got a chill attitude that helps him "whatevering" the shit others throw sometimes at him, and conveniently lets him getting surrounded both by great people and shit tornadoes.
He is the kind of guy who will ask you if you need some help while cleaning the house after a party while the others simply pass, or the kind of guy who asks you if you need money to buy something to eat, or simply he'll cook out something for you.
Last but not least, occasional pot-smoker.
