Head Hunting

Yo what up NYC and Tri-State area! Yo I've had this crazy idea for a minute! You know how when out of state cats come through and us New York heads just go after them. Well I hate that cuase we keep making cats look good when it's like 10 against one. Son I would be flattered if I had a city full of bboys trying to smoke me. Especially when they swear their smoking me. For instance way back when Teknyc battled everybody in the House Dance Conference, who you think everybody that wasn't there heard about. Teknyc!!!! I know he felt like the man, he even told me he felt like he was. I wasn't there, but when I asked who battled Teknyc? The answer was always EVERYBODY! Ok like who? EVERYBODY! Do you guys want to be classified as Everybody or would you rather be representing yourself and your crew. Which already is representing NYC as a whole. Right? That's why I love my crew. When 5 crew was coming up they would always battle the new cats in town regardless if they were nasty or not. Every week kid, every week at 17th street they would bring it. But after a while they would do the same go downs every week and kinda play themselves out. So I told them about it and they changed it up.
Do you guys remember when Drifterz came into town and one crew called them out or actually a mix of a few crews and then EVERYBODY jumped in. HAHAHAHA. Man we got to stop making out of towners look good. Straight up! I know how you feel. They walk in our city, THE MECCA, and act like celebrities. I hate that too but lets get our city organized. Let's show them our quality instead of quantities. Show them who we got and what we have to offer. So check it out. We call it Head Hunting Season! Or whatever. You got a better name then let's think of one in the forums. No matter what it will always be Head Hunting Season, cuase bboys always travel to the Empire State. Maybe not a lot in the winter but A lot during the summer, especially when Freestyle Session comes into town. Believe that.
So this is my proposal and idea. Every month we have a main crew that will get First dibs on out of state or country crew. It's their job to find that crew if their just chilling out here on vacation or doing shows, whatever and smoke them! If its a jam then there might be more than one foriegn crew in our city, so we have a list of crews that got dibs. Maybe top 4 or whatever. But it can't just be any crew on that list. You got to be a well established and motivated crew. Our city needs the best representation possible. Now I know that a lot of bboys may complain that the main crews are always the same. For instance Dynamic, Breaks, Supreme or X Fenz. Well you can't get mad about the hard work we put in. You can tell that this is our lives basically. But I still want to push other crews in NYC to represent as well. So it won't always be us representing. We got other crews that are nasty that can smoke out of town bboys without a sweat. We got the Heights, Brooklyn Zoo, 2 Steps Ahead, Foot Clan, Floor Obsessions, Mad hitting crews, Full FX, Ready to Rock, New Breed, 5 Crew Dynasty, Teen Titanz, and whole bunch of other crews. Sorry if I didn't mention you if I didn't. I'm just trying to get this message out. I'm going to start a Forum page called Head Hunting Season to get feedback from the bboys in the city. So if you got ideas and if your down for representing hit it up. Let's ALL get to work!
So basically whenever an out of state crew comes through, we will always have a main crew that month putting it down and also crews that have second and third dibs on other crews invading our scene. So instead of a frenzy of a welcome we will have a proper welcome to NYC! Ask some of the few cats I battled in NYC! I always told them at the end of the battle, WELCOME TO NEW YORK CITY! And sometimes I would add the mother fucker at the end depending on who it was. HAHAHA! Nah but we got to stop talking so much in battles too!
It's annoying! I used to think it was cool until I saw other people do it. Takes away from the dance. B-boys don't want to see other bboys argue. They want to see somebody get burnt or actually get down. Especially with the djs we got in our city. They be throwing some straight fire! AAAAAAAhhhh! So shut the fuck up and smoke that fool! FOOL!
Oh yea! Also for the Head Hunting thing we should also do it as far as solo bboys are concerned. So we'll have the BBoy of the month as well. And he'll get in free to all the jams and be the man of the month. Whateva is cleva. But we'll leave this for the new generation. So my bad if I was rambling but I just had to get this out! If your down, then let me know on the forums or my email. kidglyde@gmail.com. NEW YORK, NEW YORK!
