Song description
"Moves Like Jabba" parodies Jabba the Hutt from Return of the Jedi.
The song is a tongue and cheek look at Jabba the Hutt, describing him in satirical but generally positives ways. "gangster," "baller," a roller, and someone who cannot be controlled by Jedi mind tricks. Despite poking fun at Jabba's large, grotesque figure, as seen in Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi, the singer describes wanting to be like Jabba the Hutt.[1]
Background information
