Footworkin' in Tokyo - THUMP Specials (Full Documentary)

[@thumpchannel]

Thousands of miles away from its Chicago home, footwork is inspiring a group of Japanese dancers and DJs to dig deep into the Windy City's highest energy musical export. Check out 'Meet The Era' - A Chicago Footwork Documentary: bit.ly/2lYzObO

[@lanthepandadragon3488]

THUMP yall should come down Washington D.C. and do a documentary about GoGo music and the dance Beat your Feet

[@DeeJayTre]

Big UP's to everyone on the Documentary on our Chicago culture of dancing and dance music, it is a blessing to know that we've inspired people on the other side of the world... to me it's still hard to believe, til this very day ! RIP DJ RASHAD !!!!

[@ikoei]

I'm from Chicago the Englewood District and the first time that I had seen someone do some Footwork was in 1986. One of the guys was from around the crib was going at with this cat from out the 220's Building on 63rd. It's amazing that this style of dance still inspires people and now it's Worldwide. What would this World be like without Black People? I'm Proud of Being Black.

[@rahsaanification]

Facts!I've seen some of the most classic battles in the 90s on the southside at house party's!

[@djdancealone3419]

Dude said Chicago footwork changed his destiny ..... like ....... wow

[@KustomKrosses]

I started Footworking in 1994...tons of battles. I'm glad this has reached the world

[@mr_guy661]

Thank you for contributing to the scene, I only just found it in the early 2010s but I can't get enough of it since Love from UK

[@Hardmanferdead]

I’m from Philadelphia and I started learning footwork about a year but I’ve known about the music since the mid 2000s.

[@seth1]

Beautifully shot and very heartfelt. Footwork will never die. RIP DJ Rashad.

I'm a second generation Chicago footworker and CEO of House Of Creation (not Creation), and I thank you all who carry on the Chicago footwork culture around the world.

[@262deejay]

Black People Inspire so much in the world I wish the world loved us just as much as they love our culture 💯💯💯💯

[@Ghostwolf4004]

Facts man, facts.

[@sefp]

black should stop giving their identity and intellectual property to other its suicidal. people are making money of your identity and inventions whilst you and your kids starve. stop universalising the particular, stick with your own, own your intellectual property only you black men should perform and profit from it

[@madatyoutoob]

Word man its insane! We are pioneers!

[@PRETTYKITTY445320]

Black Power ✊🏽

[@tallgiraffelady]

Yep they want white chocolate: none of the color but all of the flavor.

[@RunWolfmanRun]

Just wanted to drop in and say thank you for respect for Chicago House culture. I'm a Chicago native, grew up in the 90's with friends in dance troupes and the whole club scene in the 2000's; it's unexplainable to see people from a different country treat it with the utmost respect and passion. Thank you so, so much.

[@carstarsarstenstesenn]

They doin more footwork in Japan than we do here in Chicago. bring footwork back

[@773mojo5]

Straight up nothin like it was back in the day

[@Garcelle1987]

Black culture is so powerful. Make sure yall that are inspired and borrow from it always give props to the originators

[@Frostgrl681]

Chile I am so GD tired of other people copying us and later making money off of it. It is just disgusting.

[@yeetman4953]

@@Frostgrl681 you dont hear other people complain about it

[@LUX_8]

They NEVER do.

[@ChicagoLegend1510]

Being from Chicago(born and bred), this video was incredible!! Those West Side Vs. South Side battles use to be epic at the Route, Rainbow Skating Rink, and 5th City. Shout out to Japan for embracing my city’s culture . 🇯🇵 💯 #ForeverChicago

[@Alfred_English]

this very well captures the transcendent nature of dance and music. warms my heart

[@TheBestOne382]

My city Chicago is the best our footwork is all over the W🌎RLD!!!

[@fivemeomedia]

RIP DJ Rashad

[@Shugah6262]

I am happy to know that Our City Chicago Is Getting Some Recognition From Japan Just To Hear Something Positive For Once Is Heart Felt I Love Our City, Always Praying For Our City 🙏🏾🙌🏾💜

[@stretch345]

I love this! Can't wait to go to Tokyo next month

[@adg_87]

My man summed it up. These guys are good, but they have a ways to go. Reason being is that Chicago footworking is more than just dancing. Chi-town cats have the spirit of struggle, death, and despair in those steps. No matter how much you practice or try to learn the intricacies of it, the fact that you didn't grow up in that situation has a lot to do with it. Props though to those Japanese cats for recognizing the skill and talent that goes into it.

[@chadwicklockharte5035]

And to be truthfully honest you can actually see the difference in when black folks do and when everyone else does it. It's majorly Obvious lol.

[@5822huron]

They don't have our soul

[@adg_87]

@Straightoutofchiraq yyessir!!! My point exactly! You can copy all you want, that's fine but the soul is what makes it authentic! And I'm not even from the CHI! LMBAO!

[@ohhellno4934]

Im from Chicago and I'll never forget when I first saw footwork

[@b3naqua]

s/o all the Japanese footwork homies 👽👽

[@kennethburwell9349]

Suck

[@LuvSol427]

I ❤ the respect they give to Chicago! Respect to you Tokyo! ❤✨

[@kingofjuke7]

You guys should come to Chicago and we would have a battle. It would be a fun experience for all of us.

[@PBobs-Lvall]

Wow Chicago you inspired Tokyo.

[@ninahill1939]

[@tanishab3569]

[@richmane7982]

I went to a kode9 show in shibuya and I thought it was going to be dubstep but it ended up being footwork. One of the best shows I've been to

[@ras4782]

Yall should look into the Detroit jit but this some nice foot work i know Detroit and Chicago have battles all the time .. i like the juke when done smooth

[@takaria83]

If japan Can master housedance and locking imagine what they will do with chicago footwork ;) also keep in mind that chicago footwork, is the manifestation of the pain of the people in CHI! who have really rough times! This is their emotions, their creativity to escape any kind of supression! Chiraq is a rough place to live in!

[@Uberboy07]

Thoroughly enjoyed this doc. Thank you

[@UrbanDanceLegends]

If they love Chicago Juke in Japan, they would probably love Memphis Jookin.

[@ras4782]

The 'tracklist' in the end doesn't help at all. It seems to be out of order and some titles are either wrong, or the songs are just untraceable. I need the one from 07:42 but it's an impossible task to do..

Somebody else is always making money off our art. Why is that? Next topic, they flow with this footwork props to that.

[@Frostgrl681]

I want to give a special shout out to all the bastards behind scenes that are deliberately orchestrating the death of our sons in Chicago under the phoney guise of "gang violence culture". Now you filthy bastards are stealing their organs, organs from a gifted group of people you trash chaos organizers could never be.
