Lyrics:
The funk is here to stay
I’ll toast to that
It’s the Tuxedo way
I’ll toast to that

Party people here with us
I’ll toast to that
Take your cup and raise it up
I’ll toast to that

Dust your shoulders off and let your hair down
We’re gonna celebrate tonight
Everyone
I’ll toast to that

Feels like a holiday
I’ll toast to that
We’ll dance the night away
I’ll toast to that

Party people here with us
I’ll toast to that
Take your cup and raise it up
I’ll toast to that

If you’re rollin’ with the Tuxedo sound
We’re gonna celebrate tonight
Everyone

Move your feet and have a ball
Don’t be holding up the wall like a vegetable
Celebrating ‘til the dawn
I’ve been waiting all week long just to let it go

Welcome to the official Tuxedo Channel. Tuxedo is Grammy nominated renaissance man Mayer Hawthorne (Aquarius) and Grammy nominated producer Jake One (Taurus). They mysteriously showed up on Internet doorsteps in 2013. In between Mayer's solo albums, and Jake's productions for Drake, The Weeknd, J. Cole, etc., Tuxedo released their debut album and quickly became a world of its own.

Pete got an Infinity Stone somewhere. This dude still as crisp as ever. 40+ years in the game.

The music that is created from tuxedo really makes me love life even in this troublesome time I'm in. The funk conquers all

[eshore]

Popin' Pete's movements are so intricate it almost looks like he is filmed in a different manner than the other dancers. Almost like he is in stop motion, but its real time. There are so many tiny movements within each movement... He is just incredible to watch.

Love how tuxedo music videos are people just dancing and having fun

[briantrang]

This is how you make a damn video! Bring some dope dancers together, and let them funk to the music! Absolutely loved this.

This song was playing in Target today so I used Shazam to find out who it was….I’ve never heard of them until today….They sound really good…..R&B Funk is music that can’t keep you down … will always bring you up….

[ArimurtiWisnu]

They all are top level dancers in the world whoa!

[tomtalker]

These dancers are FANTASTIC...!!! I feel like i'm watching Don Cornelius host a show of Soul Train. This is what it's all about folks.

That moment you notice there are current musicians that still make 80's style music today. All hope is not lost for modern music. 👏🏽🙌🏽

[sablesenegal]

Wow this reminds me of 80s classic funk songs I was a teen growing up listening to this music!📀💿💽📻

[MrSoLeLyFe]

This honestly makes me so happy and smile 🙂 thanks for bringing a new generation of funk. I’m 26 and grew up with funk from my parents. It’s nice to have some fresh new songs, that carry on the rich sound and heritage of its past

@Tuxedo

[s.a.]

Poppin n lock-in all everyyydayyyy 💯💯👌🏽

[tlostellem]

This song will hit with young and old of all races and religions. If you don’t dig this vibe I feel sorry for you!

[ayanajones]

Target brought me here - this song is on almost every time I am in there- I was down in Atlanta last week with a friend and we were at Target- she found the name of the song for me- been jamming every since

[legacy]

Tuxedo keep the funk alive !! aaiigght !! and keep the funkstyle culture alive really appreciate this collab with this dancers (specially Popin Pete real deal !!)

[MK-dfli]

Tuxedo can make anything so cool...Back in the days pop n lock was the thing, now its old kids moves..Tuxedo brought it back guns blazing.

[WanaBeKenobi]

Beautiful break dancing! Brings me way back to my teens in 1984. My brother and I had the first, and only, break dance crew in El Toro, Ca.

[lauriesheehy]

I think every Tuxedo song is too awesome to be topped, until they release new stuff and blow my mind even more. Tux 3 is straight fire. I had tix to see them last week but my car didn't make it... oh well, I'm just grateful to have this groove 💃🔥🎶

Each album is good, but the albums get better than the last.
