Damn... It is sad to see a pioneer pass, I just found out and its almost a month later. Wild Style was and is my favorite movie and the scene where he is demonstrating a certain freeze in the park, sticks out in my mind. One of my favorite B-Boys, Rest In Peace my brother.

FROSTY the west was won!!!!!!!

POE167 (May 4, 2008)

I was in school at PS 52 in Manhattan and the Master Disaster crew ran the school my crew.We would fly our colors and 1 day crazy legs and his people rocked their colors and we challenged them to a battle.We were about knives and guns so we came prepared to battle,When they showed up they came with a radio and ready to dance thats where I met FROSTY the coolest dude ever because what he did wasn't an act but who he was genuine and from the heart, a pure BUG OUT. I lost touch for a while 15 years but a couple of years ago they had a hip hop summit in Harlem and guess who I ran into and he was still the same dude. We caught up on some shit and I introduced him to my son Chris.2 weeks later I ran into CL in Chinatown told him I saw freeze in Harlem and got no reaction. Oh yeah freeze told me he hadn't spoken to him for about 5 years.

In the 80s i was break dancing with freeze. He was good but i was better. I hurt my hip on a over the top b bomb drop. He took over and everttime i saw him, from my wheelchair, i would just be in awe and say " yeah baby go for it." In later life frosty and I hung out at the Manhole bar. A Popular place for men who acted like men, manly men, men with masculine manly traits. Nothing but men here! Yes sir! Yep Frosty ruled!

Or maybe im thinking of someone else
