Could you please tell me what does
To get with the beat
mean?
Many thanks
Unless you are speaking about music (in which case it might literally be ‘keep to/move to the beat of the music’), it’s a slang term meaning ‘keep up with the times/ catch up with modern thinking.’
It’s also a popular quote from Walt Disney’s ‘the Jungle Book’:
“Come on, Baggy, get with the beat!”
Baloo the Bear speaking to Bagheera the Panther – and meant literally as move to the beat of the music.
Thank you very much Beeesneees. It is about a dance competition.
Very kind.
In that case, as I said: “Move to the beat of the music.”
