Kush-Footed

1930s Jazz term for stoned-walk/drunk-staggering or dance. Likely coined by popular group "The Ink Spots", but used by many. At times, Kush-Footed is used as a cue to encourage the musicians or audiences to step things up a notch, basically to get further turnt, or to crunk things up. To get fully in the groove per se.

"Boy's as mella as a honey-dew" "Yeah, he sho is kush-footed boss, the joint is jumpin t'night"
"Give Em The Blast, Turn On The Heat, Kush-Footed!" - Charlie Fuqua of The Ink Spots in "Swing Gate, Swing".
