*Battle Battle*
Anyone else watching this? The name's a bit gay but the breaking is massive. The concept is two opposing groups of breakdancers on opposite ends of a dance floor each trying to outdo each other.
A japanese team were on last night and totally went off, just mad mad skills, contorting their bodies and throwing themselves round in mind boggling ways.
I had the dolphin, the robot and could hold my line in the chain back when i was a bit more limber but these guys show how it should be done. |

The korean team came 2nd. Nice work. |

I saw this match between the French and Koreans. I didn't realize the French were named Pokemon, so at the time I thought it was some slang word the MC liked to use. "Move back, Pokemon!"
Individually I thought the Koreans had some amazing moves. I am not sure how much value is placed upon teamwork and synchronization but the French went into that more often, and more elaborately. |

I've seen it all before. Breakdancing is so...1982. What's next? Grunge again? |

It started in 82, but it ain't like grunge, fool. It's a movement that is here to stay like coffee. |

Started before 82, actually...82 is the year it pretty much died. Naw, it's just a fad...isn't even a popular one. You'll see...it will die out. Grunge will be back. Kids these days are suckers. |

You're so right, that's why there are B Boy competitions all round the world all the time. And that is why it's considered one of the four pillars of hip hop. I guess hip hop was a fad too. You're so tuned in to the pulse of the street dude... |

4 pillars of hip hop...
What are the other 3? Kangol hats, gold chains, and Adidas track suits? Oh, and let me take a guess...the biggest stars in hip hop at the moment are Grandmaster Flash and Afrika Bambaataa. |

Dont know why you mention those artists who are gone. B Boying never went away, it's been a part of hip hop sinse the beginning, and is still going strong. If you've tuned out, that's your biz. It's now a lot bigger than it was in 82, for one thing it's done almost all over the developed world... |
