Dunno, i have never heard of that dance before. I don't think it is one either. Correct me if im wrong. But that just looks like popping except he wasn't in beat at all. I think i've heard a song that says buck or w/e. Probably just got it from that. I don't listen to rap so. Anyone care to correct me go right ahead.

all you need to know about Buckin is that it's a hybrid of other styles. jit, slide glides, liquid, tuting and airwalks. Alot of people in Detroit are mad because they called out a few of people that buck on bitting ALOT of elements from Jit. Nothing to it really besides good gliding and airwalking. There isn't really any "popping" involved

Beatmaster, I dont know if you remember me, but we emailed back and forth a little bit and you were lacing me about bucking. I told you that in the video "Hood to Hood" in mephis they had some folks buckn, well this wasnt the best buckn clip i have seen, but ive seen a lot of buck'n lately on you tube, and i just want to say I really enjoy what you guys are doing out there in memphis, and whever else yall get down. When you told me about it, i didnt take you to seriously because everyone is always saying theres tight cats out there and when i see them im sadly dissapointed. But you were the only guy i have talked to on here where you didn't dissapoint, and i respect you for that mane. Alot of the shit i see on there reminds me a lot of what cats out in the bay were doing back in the late 90's. Keep doing yo shit mane, much love.
Meltin- one of the guys who didn't boo yo shit pimpn. Peace. Question for you: Is bucking everything in the video with the glides, poses,heel toe, or is it more specific and the glides, etc is just some extra shit yall do? |
