Jazzy J | Shooz | Frankie D | Popping | Street Dance | Boogaloo | Funk | L.A. Rooftop ‘98

Nov 1998:
About six months before the official formation of the Groovaloos, founder Bradley "Shooz" Rapier invited his friend and legendary street dancer Jazzy J up to the roof of his Hollywood apartment for a popping session. Frankie D dropped in with Indrani as well. In this clip Jazzy teaches Bradley one of his routines and breaks down some of his iconic hip and knee rolls. Ridiculously funky!

now I know where Greenteck got his style and movements from.

[@in_vas_por8810]

Yeah I see it too. I think when you go that deep into the leg/groundwork, you eventually will start to see similar movements; especially for two guys who do a lot of boogaloo.

It's way more obvious what Acky was trying to do in the early 2000's. I see Kei...Japan in general.....ANYONE ELSE SEE THIS??

[@in_vas_por8810]

I'm seeing a bit Sweepy, a bit of Acky, but I feel like boogaloo is just that kind of dance. Not to mention: Suga Pop, Skeet, Jazzy, Sam, Pete, all their flavor is deeply engrained over there. Also (just a thought), I see some unique styles, but how unique can your boogaloo be before it aint boogaloo anymore? Thats a question I always think about for many style-based things, like boxing.
