That mail man guys name was VIC 156 or something, the number might not be right. I'm going off memory.

Kool Herc invented the length of a break to be extended with a mixer.

B.boy - Crazy legs.
Graff art - Every graff artist.
Turntablism - DJ Kool Herc ( the guy who gave b.boys their name).
MC - KRS-ONE

If you break to that noise that plays all day on the radio and TV, you are not a b.boy.
