[@seanharris2985]

Killed it. Future and Rashaad along with a lot of other dancers too, are really keeping this essence of popping/dancing alive. Shit is so cool and creative

I first saw these guys perform at Home Base in Oak. I was off a few doses of acid. They blew my mind. Thanks for uploading this piece of Bay history.

[@AwestaKhalid]

I think I was at that same party

[@Sagplaya]

@@AwestaKhalid amazing times!

[@AwestaKhalid]

but i first saw them at nye 19996/1997 at Henry J Kaiser in Oakland. Angelina the singer was also performing. Wish i had a time machine! @@Sagplaya

[@Sagplaya]

@@AwestaKhalid - I think I remember that party as well! Man, we were the lucky ones to experience a rave culture that was legit, underground, all forms of music, no edm, no smartphones, better drugs, hahaha. I wish I had a time machine too. Those years inspired me to dj and i'm glad almost 30 yrs later I stuck with it.

[@bboyStuntZ]

I love it! I love it! This is awesome! I like the music too. The whole performance was interesting beginning to end!

[@ATLbench]

Imagine how long it must take to develop these routines! Sheesh! Totally original!

[@thehoofersclub]

How did these OG's figure this out with no KZbin and social media to bite from? Why is it so difficult for the younger generation to create their own language in dance from scratch?

[@88GURP]

[@myronbledsoe44]

Not bad at all. Never was a big fan of one two dancing but hey everyone has their own style.Couldnt have come to Detroit back then unless you had some footwork and true dancing ability.

[@mmbm6279]

Oh, believe me, they can all get down.

[@AnthonyHernandez-je1tx]

This was before jit and juke. These guys were around in the 70’s.

[@ddb7408]

LONNIE GREEN! I can't tell if that's Monte & someone said "Dana Dane" lol #fillmoe

[@Simonewhitesim-1music]

Yeah you can tell Lonnie's Vibe!!!!!!!!

[@brittanychavez2888]

Somebody need to find these guys and do a documentary on them, especially with the FBA culture in hip-hop & break dancing trying to be rewritten by the culture vultures of other race groups

[@judymcgaugh6480]

My friend said he saw acouple guys doing that in prison but it was not dancing they were doing.. sorry I do not feel the music..
