Which ever part of nuture vs. nature is responsible for this shit storm of a brain I possess, for one reason or another loves to dance. It’s inconceivable to me how anyone can stand completely still when any, even somewhat decent, music is playing; no comprende. Over the past fews show I have been to, I noticed several people standing still through the set of some pretty groovin music, statue status.
You don’t have to practice your moves in your bathroom looking into the mirror, you can though. You most certainly need to go to dance classes, but it sure wouldn’t hurt. You just have to “leave your cool at the door,” let the music enter your body and do whatever it makes you do. If after allowing the music to enter and work its magic, you still find no movement, then drive a stake into your heart you vampire or call Arnold the Governor to kill the next evolution of Terminators.
By definition, dance is just the movement of the body, usally rhythmic and to music. Its healthy, cleansing, and stimulating to your mind, body and most importantly your soul. Anyone who says “White people cant dance”, they might be right, however fuck that noise; hearing that only makes me want to go harder.
There is a lot of art and precision that goes into dance, dont get me wrong, we can’t forget about the professionals, and much love to all of them. Dance can be a form of expression, of art, or some abstract idea, even I cant comprehend. There are infinite styles of dance that even YOU can enjoy and participate in, ballet, break dancing, square dancing, line dances ( electric slide) , tango, and the dance that some random rapper in LA just made up 3 minutes ago, ( it sucks though so dont try and learn it).
In honor of Just Dancing and my hometown rap star WALE, watch this video featuring the Justice beat D.A.N.C.E. with some Wale flow.
