  • REAL BLACK MEN, IF YOU ASK ME.

  • It is natural to dance, but unfortunately, club culture in the US today is different. It's hard to explain, but there's something wrong with it, it isn't human, it doesn't belong to people. There are some joints that play underground music and people dance because they feel it, for the right reasons, but popular song and dance is mostly about alcohol and sex now. That's not culture. I really like the dance in this video; I see a lot of house movements. House stays closest to the roots.

  • My husband Kwaku does this very same dance every night before we cuddle

  • wow this is powerfull.....i love the way he makes his moves.

  • whats feminine in one culture might not be feminine in another... its all based on cultural perception!

  • True enough I recognizewhere some old skool 80's moves came from. It IS in our BLOOD wherever WE may be (atlanta, antigua, or angola) alos did U see the movie RIZE ? that movie had som intense dancing that U know they really were "feelin it"

  • Exactly...it's in our DNA...that dude wasn't doing nothing but the Bobby Brown dance, the Mash potato, I saw the Snake and the Wop in that joint. We still do the same thing here in the U.S.A.

    We in the club dancing and having a good ole time. My man did the Crummpin' in that joint. Did you see the chick was smooth too.

  • there are some dances that are obviously feminine and should be preformed by women

    diggin the rhythm though i do a different version of this rhythm but i definatly learned something from this vid tanks

    for posting
