He calls his personal Krump style BROOKLYN BUCK. Brian started Krumping in 2004.

Which makes him one of the most sought after Krump teacher.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
I said this YEARS ago that Krumping is a lot like a language only expressed in the form of physical expression when some fans of older more Traditional forms of dance like Breaking, Tutting, popping & Voguing, tapping & ballet, would often try to argue that krumping wasn't a real art form or a real dance form simply because they couldn't understand it.
To be honest I never thought KRUMP is that deep, used to think its all about anger and fighting someone. Gotta learn this some time, I think I'll love it so much.
thanks for this bro. as a krumper this is very important to the movement
Watching this live was incredible. Thank you for the powerful presentation Henry!

Wow. Just wow.
I think the NYT description that his "moves are human lightning and thunder" is pretty apt.
Edit: Sorry, it looks like that description is credited to the choreographer Andrea Miller and paraphrased as well as quote by NYT in their story.

Got nothing on Darnell Krump
Gimme a couple drinks and I'll do the same thing smh
I am so confused wtf is he doing
Explaining a dance style called krumping. He's explaining each movement to the audience so they're able to see its not random crazy movements but a deeper story. If he breaks it down bit by bit with the words on the screen behind him the audience can now follow why he chooses those movements. He says it in the beginning this dance style is his way of communicating whether it's his thoughts, emotions, or his reality of every day life.
Bizarre. Outlandish. I also feel kinda bad for the people who were there.
Jens Wieth why feel bad for people who WANTED to be there? And why criticize an artform just because you don’t understand or appreciate it...
That is the mindset the stunts progression...
