THE BLUEPRINT

Beaver of the original Zulu Kings is credited for starting teh bboy boom.. However there is always a root.
Here is a picture of me standing alongside the one who in Bronx River projects is known as "Doc"
Doc is original member and now leader of a neighborhood gang called "The Reapers"
Aside from being a member of the reapers, Doc, who in this days was known as "Pooch" was also a fantastic funk style dancer.
When I say funk style I don't mean popping and locking. But more or a bronxstyle version of alot of the dances you saw on soul train in the late 60's and early 70's.
Doc aka Pooch is credited for teaching Beaver, Robbie Rob, and Pow Wow

THE END ALWAYS JUSTIFIES THE MEANS

BACK IN 2000, THE BEEF WITH THE "SO CALLED KING" UPROCK STARTED.
THE REASON IT STARTED WAS CAUSE AFTER BATTLING 8 GUYS, FEVER ONE, MY LONG TIME PARTNER, WAS ATTACKED BY RC IN AN UPROCK BATTLE.
I WENT TO A JAM AND SAW RC, I SAID TO MYSELF.... "OK, IM WEARING A HEAVY SWEATER, TIMBERLANDS, AND LEATHER PANTS, BUT IF THIS NIGGA TRIES TO SHINE, IMMA EAT HIM!"
IF I WAS A MEMBER OF DYNASTY ROCKERS PROTECTING HIM OR ANOTHER MEMBER OF THE CREW, I WOULDVE BEEN CALLED A SOLDIER BY RC, BUT SINCE THE RETALIATION WAS AGAINST HIM, IM WRONG AND A TROUBLE MAKER.
EVEN AT THE END OF THE CLIUP YOU WILL SEE ME SAY TO HIM "DONN'T EVER MESS WITH MY PARTNER"
I AM WHAT I AM, SOMONE WHO BACKS UP THIER CREW AND THIER FAMILY.
LOVE ME OR LEAVE ME ALONE.
"I RIDE FOR YOU, YOU RIDE FOR ME, YOUR ENEMIES ARE MY ENEMIES, CAUSE YOU AINT NEVER HAD A FRIEND LIKE ME!"
