Physicx Interview by Stedlove | Bboy Spot Article

I love that photo with the monkey! An interview had recently been published at the Bboy Spot about Physicx’s whereabouts and business this year. Apparently he's been travelling around and has made Thailand his new home for the time being.

In 2010, one of our local bboys, Ben Tafau, visited South Korea on behalf of the Asian New Zealand Foundation and underwent what must have been the meanest research project that has ever existed - researching the South Korean bboy culture. I would take a job like that any day. Jealous.

Rapper Ill Mitch? | Funny and Buzzy

One unfortunate afternoon a particular local bboy caught my attention. During practice he was halfway attempting something quite extraordinary and I wanted to see stick around to watch. Sadly, I had to gap early. Someone passed me his bboy name so I decided to google search him just in case he had any dope battle videos floating online.

Instead - I found someone else. Someone strange. With a strange website. A website so strange it was interesting. So interesting I stayed there for 10 minutes with my head spinning. Then I decided I had to share it with the rest of the world. Click the picture to visit his website.

Bboy Music Mondays | #5 | Canon in D (remix) – Lee Chang yui

Remember back in the old YouTube days when one million views were considered a lot by a long shot? Well, one of the first people I remember hitting that target quite easily was someone with the alias Funtwo. He was the dude who played Canon in D Rock on an electric guitar.

Complete Rivers | Bboy | South Korea

Naughtyone posted this up. It's the complete Rivers Crew from back in the day. Just thought I'd do the same and share it all around for everyone to enjoy. How nostalgic is this?

Bboy Music Mondays | #4 | Superbad – James Brown

James Brown, a.k.a The Godfather of Soul, really knew how to stir up the dance floor. Every time his music comes on, especially Superbad, everyone goes crazy. And by crazy, I mean hyper possessed craaazy! 

Practice Spot for Auckland Bboys and Bgirls

Bboy Music Mondays | #3 | Bgirl – Earthtones

This week’s music is pretty mint although I wouldn’t consider it a breaking tune. My slice of life will be short because well, the song speaks for itself. As a bgirl in a male dominated culture I admire bboys who give no easy props to us bgirls. Those I admire even more are those who encourage and respect us for holding our own.
