"Gettin' Jiggy wit It" is a song by American rapper and actor Will Smith, released as the third single from his debut solo album, Big Willie Style (1997). The verse is based around a sample of "He's the Greatest Dancer" by Sister Sledge, and the chorus is sampled from "Sang and Dance" by the Bar-Kays. Released on January 26, 1998, the song was Smith's second hit produced by Poke & Tone and L.E.S., who replaced his long-time partner Jazzy Jeff, though the record-scratching techniques of Jazzy Jeff can be heard in the song.

  • Gettin' Jiggy Wit It est une chanson enregistrée en 1998 par Will Smith pour son album Big Willie Style. Elle fut produite par Poke and Tone, en remplacement de l'ancien producteur Jazzy Jeff. La chanson empruntait des éléments de la chanson He's the Greatest Dancer de Sister Sledge. Elle est restée trois semaines dans le palmarès Billboard Hot 100 et a gagné un Grammy pour meilleure performance solo. La rumeur attribue la paternité des paroles à Nas, qui dément, selon lui la confusion vient du fait qu'il était présent auprès de Will quand ce dernier a composé les paroles. (fr)
