Begin the dance 32 counts after the big beat kicks in (there's a 16-count intro before that starting with laughter, one of the band members saying "Yo, once again it's the Southside, and we're gonna smooth it out a little bit" followed by some instrumentation and all the guys singing "All around the world..." etc.). Don't dance yet - you'll start with the first verse, when the vocalist sings, "Yo, hear us now...."
