bali , first off , i'm totally flattered and thank you for the mention - i feel famous now!

i also learned some about the history by reading your essay - i guess i've been more focused on the history of breaking than the history of hip hop , so you expanded my horizons . NOw i can go off and sound a little more intelligent.

Your essay structure wasn't the one i was taught in school though , so i had a little bit of a hard time following the thread through ( used to theis , development , summary ) but it's all good , if you got an A + then you did what your teacher asked you for AND did it in your own style . If you ever want help proofreading anything , i love to do it no matter what the topic is so feel free to email me if that's ever needed .

GOod job.

you must have been a bgirl.... because the only moves that you pulled on me were heartbreakers

hey, thats a good essay Bali.

I got one thing to say tho, if ya'll keep bumpin it up for newbs to read, then make sure all the info is correct.

when you say "toasting" was when people would use their DJ systems and compete. thats wrong.

Toasting was actually when Jamaican DJ's, and peeps from the carribean would have backyard parties, and the DJ's would start speaking over the beat. Its just talking, and braggin on yourself. this started in the Carribean. thats what toasting is.


Also, old school bboys will tell you that they never even heard of Capoeira. Capoeira did not influence bboying.

Aw thats ill

Drifter...the final project

Breaking can be whatever you want it to be. If you want it
to be the original, structured dance that it was 20 years ago,
then it can be that for you. If you want it to be your own
limitless form of expression, it can be that for you.
The world will never agree on what exactly Breaking is...
and if the world ever does agree, then I guess I won't be Breaking anymore.

good essay with slight grammatical errors, thesis could've been clearer. Overall very well done, informative, and good insight.

Lol.....are like half of the people here goin' into writing? Cuz I mean......I'm a more math oriented student.......meaning I can spit tangent-chord properties at you like there's no tomorrow......But I have no clue in hell what a subordinate clause is, or what a gerund is (Ok......well, not THAT bad. I know sentence structures. I jus don't read in depth and note the author's writing style, and such).


As for the actual essay, really made me think........and these thoughts involve a sandwich.....lol Seriously though, it was good. Tons of info.

When some one's throwin' punches, it won't make a difference whether or not you can windmill, or hit a clean tutting angle.
