On May 4, 2016, J.J. Abrams appeared outside the Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway with "Hamilton" composer and star Lin-Manuel Miranda. Miranda and Abrams performed "Jabba Flow", the cantina song from this movie that the pair had composed together. This was one of the regular performances presented for the "Ham 4 Ham" lottery, the short events outside the Richard Rogers, in conjunction with the lottery for the small number of $10 tickets to "Hamilton" that are made available daily. Since only about 20 $10 tickets are available, but thousands of people show up each day, Miranda instituted this performance series so that the lottery ticket buyers (the vast majority of whom will never win the chance to buy a ticket) would have some consolation. Before performing the song, Miranda and Abrams explained that the song's lyrics are in Huttese, and they translate as "No, lover lover: it wasn't me", which Miranda jokingly described as a tribute to Shaggy's 2000 reggae hit "It Wasn't Me". May 4 is known as "Star Wars Day" because of the pun in the date ("May the fourth be with you.").
