Was up at the LA Art Walk last week…

Besides the art, I fell victim to what I thought to be a pick pocket… Instead, it seems like I was the recipient of some good music by Turnbull Green… whom I had not heard of, up until that moment. I did snoop around a bit and found out a podcast was done for Take a Record… so there is some New York connection. Do yourself a favor and give this a listen…

I was going down memory lane last night… this morning… til 5am.

The Polo fits are still in style, the moves are still relevant … Classic Hip Hop, shoot… Classic Dance, for those who know… and for those who don’t. Take in some history and learn somethin’ about the Suns of James Brown, who fathered many of todays styles. Some of the best dancers to hit the floor, then and now.

Go do your research, Mop Tops, Elite Force Crew… Check some of the ones still doing it and living from it. Loose Joint, Buddha Stretch.
