  • The B-Boy Summit Internationally Acclaimed B-Boy/B-Girl Event
    THE B-BOY SUMMIT INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED B-BOY/B-GIRL EVENT Produced by No Easy Props OVERVIEW The B-boy Summit continues to be a major trendsetter in Hip-Hop street dance, art and music culture. Established in 1994, The Summit presented innovative ideas in Hip-Hop culture, offering a conference forum complete with competitions, performances, panels, workshops, and a marketplace for consumer friendly products marketed toward the Hip-Hop community. Never content with success, The B-boy Summit continues its mission to bring the hottest street dance, art, and music above ground to the masses. The B-boy Summit has grown into an internationally acclaimed 3 day festival incorporating all aspects of Hip-Hop in different plateaus, including the most intense battles, rawest circles, theatre performances, a DJ/MC Talent Showcase and live aerosol art painting. The B-boy Summit was created in 1994 out of the need for a community orientated Hip-Hop event that encompassed knowledge of the history of Hip-Hop culture and the skills of B-boying and B-girling. At that point in time B-boys and B-girls didn’t have a platform in which to come together, dance and pay homage to the traditional dance of Hip-Hop. Each year the event has expanded to encompass B-boys, B-girls, MCs, Aerosol Artists, and DJs from across the globe, steadily building into what is now the foremost Hip-Hop cultural event in the world. More recently, The Summit has become one of the most important events for Lockers, Poppers, Freestyle and House Dancers to take part in during The Summit’s Funk Fest.

  • How the History of Hip Hop Dance Has Led to a Struggle for Integration Into Collegiate Dance Programs
    How the History of Hip Hop Dance Has Led to a Struggle for Integration into Collegiate Dance Programs By Alexandra Rosen Center for Dance, Music and Theater Goucher College Baltimore, MD Abstract This essay, How the History of Hip Hop Dance has Led to a Struggle for Integration into ​ Collegiate Dance Programs, was written by Alexandra Rosen. Rosen is a senior (2020) at ​ Goucher College in Baltimore, Maryland where she has conducted this research through the Center for Dance, Music and Theater. According to the Merriam Webster dictionary the term hip hop is defined as, “a cultural movement associated with especially rap music.” Nonetheless, the term has always included 4 elements; breakdancing, rapping, Djing/MCing and graffiti writing. All of these individual art forms can be referred to as hip hop and each has its own rich history worth exploring (this research will solely focus on hip hop dance). Additionally, it is important to note that hip hop goes beyond art forms. It is a culture. With hip hop being known as a street born culture it has sometimes been difficult to gain the respect of academia. However, it is clear to those who have learned and lived hip hop that the genre is built on the preservation of history and political resistance. Hip hop dance has evolved over time and has become a big part of American culture within the last decade (Hazzard-Donald). Many students are becoming interested in the dance form and have embodied the movement into their social culture. However, it is important for those doing the movement to understand the history behind it.
