music for hiphop dance

If you don’t bust a groove when you hear one of your favorite hip-hop songs, things are about to change. At hip-hop’s beginning, dancing was a major element within the culture. Any park in the Bronx, N.Y. was sure to have a piece of cardboard laid out and a booming system nearby for b-boys and b-girls to get down. These days, breakdancing isn’t as popular as it once was but moving to the music for hiphop dance is still very much a part of hip-hop — even if you have two left feet.
In the last 10 years, there has been quite a few dance movements popping up in every region of the country. From jerking on the West Coast to twerking down South, when certain songs come on, there’s always that one person that knows which moves to make while the beat rocks. In the early 2000s in New York City, the Harlem shake couldn’t be denied. In 1994, the Tootsee Roll was the thing to do in Miami. Pop up at a BBQ or local block and it’s apparent the kids are churning out a new dance on the regular. The older hip-hop heads just have to play catch up.
