The bump was a 1970s fad dance introduced by Johnny Spruce in which the main move is to lightly "bump" hips on every other beat of the music. There were several songs that were inspired by the bump, such as "The Bump" by Kenny and "Lady Bump" by Penny McLean, but the song that is most remembered is "Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof off the Sucker)" by George Clinton and Parliament, which was released in 1976. As pairs of dancer swayed to the music while standing side by side, they would come together to bump hips about every other beat of music. The idea was to bump gently, but smaller dancers tended to get jostled around by partners who weighed a bit more, and some people got carried away and bumped a little too hard, sending their partners across the dance floor.
Johnny Spruce introduced the Bump, which quickly became a dance fad in the '70s. The Bump gained traction via Penny McLean's song “Lady Bump.” The most memorable 1970s song associated with the Bump is “Give Up the Funk” by Parliament. Tina Turner also used the Bump with her song “Nutbush City Limits.” The Bump is one of the easier dances from the ‘70s; it does not require a lot of complicated dance steps. It simply requires standing next to your dance partner and bumping hips.
Just bump your hips to the beat of the music till the music ends basically.
