This powerhouse performance piece mixes the energy of an old school hip-hop concert, rapid-fire spoken word, comedic antidotes, and some of the best b-boy dancing in this city. This is a remix of the original that blew up The VORTEX stage in 2006. Fresh-to-def hot joints that are mind-blowing son, mind-blowing kid. So unlace your Addias, pull out your kango, and catch them iron worms down to The VORTEX in the blazing Austin heat and peep B-boy bluez written and performed by Zell Miller III.
