there's this grayhaired guy who recently came to our sessions and he has got to be at least 40-50 years old and he's just starting out, so yeah you're not too old.

Though that guy's really flexible for his age, he can do splits and stuff like that. He's actually more flexible than me -_-

When your dead.



Actually, I'll be popping in the afterlife, so never I guess.

I'll just start off by saying the majority rappers today have no intention of supporting hip-hop culture. If you don't support the culture, then you aren't really hip-hop.

Too old is when you don't have the time, motivation, or physical ability to do what you want in bboying.
