[@Angel-rz3sd]

@@mitsulegend all Puerto Ricans have African blood. That's what makes them Puerto Rican. They don't talk about the African blood only the Spanish and Indian blood, but they will Sasha dance to the African drums. Slavemaster would be the Spaniards that brought the African slaves to the Island of Puerto Rico that mixed with Africans, Spanish, and Tainos (who are a different type of Indian). They are supposed to be mixed with different types of races. However, the common denominator is African. Not a lot of people know that African Americans are of mixed race as well with European, African, Spanish, Middle Eastern, and Indian. I could go on but I'm done I've said enough.

[@raymuniz113]

@@Angel-rz3sd The Taínos were practically all decimated by the Spaniards. So there’s very little Taino blood in puertoricans. As far as Africans and Spaniards, there are some mixtures to different degrees. However is very difficult to see nowadays a pure black in Puerto Rico is always a mixture like Shabba Doo for example. But you also see white blond puertoricans with green or blue eyes, and other shades in between both extremes..

I notice he sat the whole time in that same position, wouldn't have been surprised if all those years of landing on the knees/butt and putting strain on the hips broke down the joints. Dude was part of an entertaining time in music and culture, before funk/early rap devolved into mostly very violent and misogynistic late 80s and 90s rap with dudes getting murdered. Really sad what it became. I don't even know what to say about the last 15 or so years of boring repetitive trap beats. It jumped the shark big time. Black music will never ever touch the greatness of funk and soul again.

I was really impressed to hear him embrace his blackness, because not a lot of Hispanics don’t. We can accept who he is, but they ether seem to want it all, or nothing, and they will shun any other Latino who recognizes their African ancestry. N.O.R.E speaks sometimes about how Big Pun used to never acknowledge the fact that N.O.R.E was black. He didn’t diss it, but he says he used to behave as if he had no black in him, which is weird because Latino isn’t a race. He also used to try to get him to eat a pork chop, by getting him in a headlock and waving the aroma in his face, but that’s another story....and a hilarious one.

I so wish I could have met him before he passed ...Listen to his words .. so deep and with passion. So many layers to what he is saying. Would have been a great guy to chat with and listen to. RIP 🙌

He is the epitome of Hip Hop Funk history. He reps for his community and proudly speaks for them. RIP Shabba Doo.

I was shocked to hear of Shabba doo's passing. It's great he did what he loved for so long. He definitely made his mark. Peaceful journey.

2020 can't get out of here fast enough. Adolfo "Shabba Doo" Quinones has left us after an illness. A Hip-Hop dancer, movie star and choreographer, Adolfo "Shabba Doo" Quinones brought into the mainstream with "coolness and class" a dance that still is said today, the change in culture. May you rest in peace and loved always!

YOU SAID IT ALL!!

[@fitwill73]

Thank you Shaba Doo for representing the Chi and sharing your talents with the world. I had a crush on him so bad back in junior high during the ‘Breakin’ films. I was determined to move to LA from Chicago just to be with Shaba Doo (just a silly girl crush). He will be truly missed. I’m so saddened.

[@roberthughes2803]

Absolutely shocking to find out Shabba Doo passed away. Was very proud of the fact he was from my hometown Chicago. There was a time when l thought he was the coolest brother on the planet. So good to know some deeper things about him.

[@radioclash9]

A wonderful Artist who helped changed the world of dance. His inspiration, legacy, style, and philosophy will live forever.

A major lost in the 80's Entertainment History. This was my era in disco dancing. I will miss Shabbadoo Adolfo Quinones a great dancer. Rest Peacefully In Heaven with our Lord Saviors. 💜🙌

RIP to the Legend Pop Lock breaking King Forever

So much knowledge emanates from him. I didn’t know he could go that deep. Although, he looks as Afro/Hispanic and his name is spanish he identified himself as black. He was half puertorican, His father left him as he mentioned here, and his mom who’s black raised him.
