Bboy = BREAK BOY
Bboy means Break Boy, a bboy is a breakdancer, not an MC or a DJ or Graffiti Technican or a BASKETBALL Player.

Bboy means Break Boy, a bboy is a breakdancer, not an MC or a DJ or Graffiti Technican or a BASKETBALL Player. You're not a bboy unless you throw down on the floor and dance, and your not a bboy unless you battle. There are 55 pages of the Bboy section, mostly written on Rap artists. Which is cool because they are a part of bboy history too, but they are rappers not bboys. Other than that, the rest of the book is great, I would recommend reading this book for the sake of good history. But for Bboy history, I would read a different one, or just buy the Freshest Kids DVD. I did buy the book mostly for a different view on HIpHOp History and that i was referred to read it.
All and all he is a good writer. Bboy StepChild
