Shout out to Michael Holman one of the greatest visionaries of Hip-Hop culture… thank you so much… Respect !!! Thanks Jayquan for this fantastic interview and to your work and your dedication to clarify so many things in history of our culture
Peace To The Gods! (7)…peace to the true & living Eloheem…”hip hop it started out in the park”….excellent & amazing segment…I loved Graffiti rock Moe Dee/Special K brung the ruckus sun…thanks Mike Holman…that chick from Australia (Olympics) and the T~Rex 😂pose was corny 🎉…salute 💪🏿💥🫡
"Time Mechanics" (meaning the deejay or emcee, beatsmiths and wordsmiths) meet 'Physical Intelligence' in a hermetic world,(with a captured audience). Bring the crews, make metrics and display it to the crowd. But someone needs to talk about the essential word: Breaking. Marshall Allen, in a documentary about Sun Ra, claimed that no one goes 'deeper into the break' than Sun Ra; so I'd like to hear more about what 'negative space' means in music and dance. I also found it interesting that one dancer had a degree in "Cultural Movement.' but it seems there is little interest in 'Attributed Interpretive Dance.' I'd like to see more people from the "Global South," as well as breakthroughs where juke or jit footwork, Capoeira.
Unfortunately the reason for these debates is because there are no proper institutions of preserving and promoting the cultural eras and traditions that were invented in America over time. And the internet is the last place that something like this is going to actually be done justice. Of course Rock Steady Crew are part of the origins of hip hop, there should be no debate about that. But people are going beyond that acting like hip hop is the origin of dancing and music in the city which it is not. Of course many traditions included in hip hop predate hip hop. And when I use the term hip hop, I am referring to the official definition of "hip hop" with 5 elements that came in the 80s. Nobody should be confused at how hip hop didn't come from nowhere but is a continuation of many many decades of innovation in popular culture just in NYC alone, not to mention America more generally.
Give Mr. Holman his flowers. Interesting addendum, "Beat Street's" original script was evocative of "Boyz 'N The Hood." I see breaking as a sport and an art form. I don't understand the art/sports arguments; doesn't make sense to me. I think damn near EVERYTHING is commercial, don't we buy everything: food, clothes? Asian conservatism? How about, how some Asians chaffed against when Bruce Lee chose to teach outsiders?
Man. I JUST left a comment on a video yesterday saying that Michael Holman needs to get his flowers!!!

Hip hop was a Puertorican🇵🇷, Jamaican🇯🇲 and black lifestyle. They were theare.
If it wasn’t intentional it came across irresponsible. Still happy to see its growth overall! Love the culture!! ❤
Broadway ??! La fin du mythe alors 😢 la danse de rue doit rester dans la rue 🤟🌍😎
