R.I.P. FROSTY FREEZE

You know, when this whole hip hop ish is dead and gone and they pack it up in a little shoebox and bury it deep in the ground under twenty feet of sediment, there will be Grandmaster Flash, Afrika Bambaataa, Crazy Legs, Seen, Zepher and Frosty Freeze. Dude was a pioneer of the step, one of the original breakers. Dude's freezes blew the game wide open and his creativity and passion helped represent the foundation which the empire was built upon. He died last week in NYC. The footage below is just a fragment of footage from the classic Style Wars (dope) featuring Frosty and crew.

Pay your respects, kid. This short history lesson has been paid for and provided by Rock Steady.
