Don't know bout it being a dance. Jive is a slang for lying-jive turkey, a person who is nothing but a big joke........Or when someone uses the phrase-"don't jive me" means don't lie to me!
I'm black and it's widely used here.......It is a 60's slang and is often heard in so called "black" movies like 'shaft'....'foxy brown' and by the pimp huggie bear in the old 'starsky and hutch' show.

a) a type of music and the dance that goes with it
b)a person who is a fake, a poser, or trying to put one over on you. Or a person with no class or cool, as in the 70's phrase "he's a jive turkey."
