Title: Hip Hop Gestures
Post by: Suga Foot on April 02, 2005, 10:47:06 AM

I'm tryin to think of all the different gestures used in Hip Hop, and where they came from.


Poppin Your Collar - E-40 made it popular, Ricky Henderson used to do it when he played in Oakland.

Crotch Grabbin - Micheal Jackson? lol

4 Fingers up, 2 twisted in the middle - Ice Cube made it popular, but apparently stole it from Kam.

Wavin a white towel like a helicopter - I don't know who made it popular, but it started at a Canucks game waaay back in the day.

C-Walkin - I don't know if it was Snoop or WC that made it a mainstreem thing, and there's a billion different stories of who did it first.


that's all I can think of right now...add on

wc was the first one to c-walk in a video, but at the time not too many people knew what it was. snoop just made it famous when he put on that whole crip act to get his West Coast fans back
