Ep. 165: Breaking Boundaries: Breakdancing’s journey from the streets to the Olympic stage; with B-Boy London Reyes

Breaking expert and insider B-Boy London Reyes tells the behind-the-scenes story of breakdancing’s history as it evolves from a street art form to an official Olympic sport. We discuss the moment the Olympic-inclusion seed was first planted; the surprising economic impact of hip hop; how breaking saves lives; how an American “product” became a global phenomenon; the challenges ahead for the art-slash-sport; and how the music involved in breaking has changed (and why).
