Jazz hit (3)
I believe the answer is:
bop
This clue is a double definition.
'jazz' is the first definition.
(bop is a kind of jazz)
'hit' is the second definition.
(bopping is a kind of hitting)
(Other definitions for bop that I've seen before include "Strike" , "Dance to record" , "Dance to pop music" , "Lively dance" , "Dance - hit (informal)" .)
