FAQ's

I've known this for some time now, but a few weeks ago I really realized this. Many of u know all this, but Im sick of em "is power better that footwork" threads.

I was watching this document on movie-freaks and the freak said to the document makers :"Documents arent art, because you focus on the content, not on the Form. Im not saying you have bad editing, but Your focus is more in the content" And that really struck me.

Everyones seen thoes picasso pictures that are just stick-figures and ppl say anyone could do it. Well they actually cant. Picasso was an artist and he consentrated on the form, not the content. The form in thoes works is probably something incredible to some ppl who understand it.

Now the same thing can be applied to breaking. You have to have form in your sets to make them look complete. Your form has to have something to do with the music, usually the rythm, sometimes even the words. The music is your canvas, and its up to you what u draw on it, but the drawing has to have form. You cant draw picture that doenst fit the canvas can you?

It is all up to you what moves you want to do, if ur talented you can always make the form look good. Look at stuntman, his moves are something horrible (nothing personal) but his form is amazing!

What you do in bboying depends on ur skills, ambitions and preferance. If you hate to do toprocks, skip them, because it will not look good if you simply hate it. The same goes for all the parts of the dance. But never judge a book by its cover, always try everything new that comes in mind, try to understand things that u dont like, dont give up on it. If you learn stuff and finally understand it you might like doing it.

So it doesnt matter what you do, It matters how you do it! Keep rocking, feeling and loving, Peace.
