Breakdancing Quotes

I started DJing, breakdancing and MCing in the '70s and I got my record deal in 1979 with 'Christmas Rap.' (Kurtis Blow)
My breakdancing crew used to go to the mall and squat a piece of cardboard there; we had our jam box, and I'd spin on my head and make about forty bucks a day, which was pretty good back then. I was only 14 years old, so I would chase the girls around the mall and eat some pizza and have some change left over. View quote

...so much joy to the world...and the system, meaning the record companies, totally took advantage of me. This is very important, what we're fighting for, because I'm tired, I'm really REALLY tired of manipulation. I'm tired of the how the press is manipulating everything that's been happening to this situation. They do not tell the truth, they lie. They manipulate, they manipulate our history books. The history books are not true: it's a lie. The history books are lying. You need to know that, you must know that. All the forms of popular music: from jazz to hip-hop to be-bop to .. to SOUL. To um, uh, dances, from the cake-walk. to the jitter-bug, to the Charleston, to uh, breakdancing. All of these are forms of black dancing. View quote
