Comparison.....

As it says in one of the articles that I have read, Krump Dancing was invented in 1992. As a result of the Watts Riots in 1962, and the Rodney King riots in 1991-92, Krump dancing was invented. It started in South California or as we all call it "South Central". The evolution came after a few years. By 1998 the Krump Kings were formed by Two Krumpers name Big Mijo and Tight Eyez. One of those two were part of Tommy the Clown, the inventor of "Clowning" or Clown Dancing.

Krump Stands for:

K-Kingdom

R-Radically

U-Uplifted

M-Mighty

P-Praise

There is practically more creativity with Clowning. But with Krump, it's all about heart, stamina and possibility. That is why I want to be a dancer to relive history and to make my family proud. Tommy the Clown is one of my inspiratons because he started Clowning on the side of a street with a bucket next to him. And now he has his own dancing academy in California. Now he is in battles around the world. I can do the same thing as far as battles is concerned. I will emulate him by trying my own thing with the crew and it will pull off.
