you can really see the true nino in this and being a drummer only - it runs my life and everything in it - so I can understand why something takes you in so completely. When I play drum and bass its like, to put it simply, I am where I am supposed to be and I love it. You are right, it is a lifestyle, when I draw and paint the bboy/bgirl moves to express what im trying to say for my art - you can explain it, but too many people have asked me about breakdancers whilst pointing to my work.

hey!…i have searched for a good “up-lifting” chat on bboying and b-girling.This made me really take a big step back and see why i am actually getting into bboying..It’s because i am falling for it.As a drummer myself,when i started drumming,i was at a very early age,now..i didn’t start drum because i seen all these bands playing on much music and jumping around having fun,or thinking it looked cool..i started because it felt natural,it felt like i had to do it,i would even get in trouble from my parents when i would be in church because i was always tapping my hands and feet making drum beats and rythems.Through out my life i have allways loved to dance,i would go to weddings as a kid and be dancing with my mom or an older friend to some oldies music or whatever else music they would play.I didn’t care what i looked like,i was just having fun,expressing myself as a kid and just feeling good.Now as i have gotten a bit older,I have gotten into alot of the under-ground hip-hop scene.Being raised on punkrock and heavy metal which was all i listend to when i was young,i felt that i was really enjoying and feeling the music that the artists put out..it was pricless music to me,i would never hear it on the radio,it would never be outplayed..i was loving it…and as i love to dance,i was slow and shy,but got into bboying,,,i can remember this one time,,i really shyed out of it because i was cut down pretty bad about the fact that i was trying to learn how to break,,from there on,i felt silly,my style got mocked..but as much as i was shy’ed out,,i still felt that i had to do it,i couldn’t help myself from doing it..so i kept it up,and despite still being cut down,i didnt give up,and now,i am so happy that i have kept going in the direction that makes me..myself as a person feel good,doing it releive’s the need to do it..to me,i guess i can relate it to a ciggerette,,you just have that killing craving inside of you that just needs to get out,until you do it..you will be agitated and it doesnt go away.I am still very new at bboying..but to me,it expresses me as a person,who i am,my love for bboying,my love for the music,hip-hop,and just throwing out your own style no matter what people cut at you,or laugh,or slander at you..it doesn’t and shouldnt matter..i was told by a bboy that really influenced me..it doesnt matter what you wear,what you listen to,how you dance to the breaks..it’s all about you and how you feel about it,if it’s good to you,than it’s good for you,if a bboy knocks you down about trying to bboy,than he isn’t a true bboy,a true bboy would respect you,and give you props on trying and putting out the effort”…that’s just the way i feel on it,and my outlook..i guess everyone has their own way or opinion..i guess i just wanted to throw mine out there..peace!
