STORM 'HOT MOVES'にゲスト出演!

今日はいよいよ、STORMのショー「HOT MOVES」。
ショーとは言え、パフォーマンスで踊るわけではなく、STORMがホストとなってのトークショー。

午後2時半に会場入りで、それまでホテルで質問のまとめ。
当然英語で質問され、英語で答える。
質問する内容はあらかじめSTORMがメールで送ってきたので、その内容に沿って返事を英語でまとめる。
いや〜〜久々に、英語にドップリやわ(爆

会場までは、ホテルから徒歩圏内、天気のよい、モンペリエをテクテクと会場へ向かう。

会場は「National Choreographic Center」ここは、 元女性用の牢獄だった場所とのこと。

当初、俺だけが呼ばれるはずだったのだが、STORMの陰謀か悪戯か、2人で呼び出されてしまい、肝心の写真とビデオが撮れなかったのだ….。

最初のゲストが1時間近く話をし、さあ次は誰かと思った瞬間に、呼び出し喰らいました(爆

New York City Breakersに入った経緯や、hoe DDWGPに関することなどを質問され、当初予定の5つではなく、結局3つくらいで終わった。

いや〜〜疲れたわ。

結局全てが終わったのが午後7時前。
帰りに、ちょこっとだけ、晩飯の買い出しをし、昨日の残りと合わせて今夜もホテルの部屋で食事を済ませた。

しかし、今日はドッと疲れたわ…..。

以下、STORMから来た質問に対して、俺の返事をまとめた物(笑

ま、気が向いたら読んでみてくださいマシな。

STORM ‘HOT MOVES’

1. How did you get with New York city breakers

In 1997 at L.A. I was on the Radiotron. Repersented With my partnner BamBam . We was created Pop&Lockin crew in New York City call SoulMajestic.
Original member of New York City Breakers come Guest Performaer at this event.
We stay same house in L.A. We talk a lot about Hip-Hop, we hang out, and we do the show case together.
After come back to New York City, we contact each other. They know about my dance&spirit. Because we do show together.
Then I was join NYCB. Specialy that time NYCB going to new area. Mean generation shift to 2nd generation.
Original leader was chino action, new leader is B-Boy London.

2. What gave you the impulse for the Hoyu dance dynamite championships

DDWGP was just started new B-Boy Battle in world.
And this is first holding World B-Boy Battle in Japan.
I’m Directer of this event. I want show it real top class B-Boy battle to Japanese B-Boys in Japan.
We have internet right now. We can see all big battle at YouTube.
It’s very easy to get information what happening around world.
But, we can’t get feeling from just tiny screen.
You must represent there, and you get real vive&feel from live.
Japanese young B-Boys is very polite. It’s very good mean but some time is bad.
They are not going out of country to get some more feeling.
I know it’s not all. Some… Ex. Mortal Combat etc some B-Boy go out there.
I want just little open the door to Them. Show the world class B-Boying.
It’s will be raise in the level of Japanese B-Boying.

3. What happened in Japan during the years 86 till 96 when the rest of the planet stopped Breaking

I just say ‘have a few bumps along the way’.
Actuary I don’t know what happend that time.
But I just guess with my feel. That time was one of the shift to new area.
It’s mean, we call ‘New School’ growing up.
I was dancing New School Hip-Hop & House Dance around the year.
I guess that reason to looks like stop.
I think that not stopping on the planet, It’s point is ratio of B-Boy and New School.
People, specially young age likes some thing new.

I think breaking is not stopping, just slow down. But it’s not bad mean.
Some times need ‘shakeout’.
After that, some of person keep stay dance, breaking. We call Originater or old school guy.
If really stopping breaking on the planet. You are not here.
Do you know that mean.

4. Who were the Bboys you admired or looked up to the most in your career

Beginning of around 5years.
I was lone wolf, I have so many friends, but I don’t have crew.

I got feel form all of people. I can’t say just one person or crew.
Any time, any scene, I got some fresh feel.

One think, One originator give me a word I was live in NY.
Guys say ‘You are the Hip-Hop’.
I was so proud. Hip Hop Originator give me a call I am ‘Hip-Hop’.
Same time I got one feel, I will keep stay in real.
Because I am the Hip-Hop.

And who is the guy call me Hip-Hop. Lee from graffiti and Grand Master Caz.

5. Who was the most influential BBoy in Japan in your opinion? and why?

So, hard to say…..
I just say mr. Harada in here.
He is one of most important b-boy in japan.
He is my old boy in my career. And he was stay in japanese b-boy scene and he pull the scene.
I give a big respect a lot for him.

Will, but I just want say.
I respect all dancers, djs, writers, mc, organizers…etc all stay in element, and stay Hip-Hop persons.
