"Breaking and popping is for anyone with an open mind who wants to take it seriously," says Pyro of Boston's Losst Unnown crew, members of which can be seen at most local rap shows and b-boy events where there are challengers to serve. "But I'll tell you one thing: if these hip-hop moms come around my way, they'd better be prepared to battle."
Chris Faraone has never tried to breakdance, but is now seriously considering it. He can be reached at cfaraone@phx.com.
