Image Description: This street break dancer is about to spin to his music. While the large speaker leaves the genre of music playing up to the imagination, we can easily imagine loud hip-hop or heavy dance music emanating from it. Urban entertainers like this one are common in many cities, and they will often have amazing self-made routines to dazzle passersby. Street break-dancing started in the South Bronx of New York City, and was popular among the street gangs and youth in the late sixties; it was often used as an alternative to fighting over turf or personality conflicts. The winner would gain respect, be able to brag about being having a better gang, and could banish the losers from their part of the neighborhood - and all in style.
