JabbaWockeeZ interview: Kevin Brewer

Kevin Brewer opened up to the Schenectady Daily Gazette. This one is a must-read for JabbaWockeeZ and ABDC fans, with detailed and really thoughtful answers on topics like the differences of being on America's Best Dance Crew Live vs. on the TV show, hip-hop culture, his love of freestyling and other dance styles, and his admiration for the other JabbaWockeez. Read it here. Favorite quotes:

• Why he dances: "It was about growing and understanding myself, physically articulating what I felt, hearing the music and seeing what could happen physically at the same time. There was always a wow factor and a deep connection to the music.”

• Hip-hop's repuration as a steppingstone to crime: "There is the dark side, but there is a dark side to everything. Hip-hop is not about street cred to be legitThe true essence of hip-hop is love and freely expressing yourself. If you express yourself honestly, people will respect you. There is a tapestry to hip-hop. The crew owns a piece of that. It’s a dope culture.”
