Me, Crazy Legs, and Tony Touch up in the booth.

Rock Steady Crew President Crazy Legs, Tony Touch and me, Kool Bob Love, tore apart a party in Tokyo last Saturday. That’s right–three Puerto Ricans who all grew up in NYC–repping our culture to the fullest on the other side of the world! The wild thing that was particularly fun is that all three of us dance. Legs of course being in a class of his own, but Tony Toca and I got out in the circle in intervals as we kept switching on the turntables. The crowd ate it up! I’ve always loved spinning in Japan dating back to my first trip here in ‘95 with my old radio partner DJ Stretch Armstrong.


Legs gettin’ busy . . .


and me making a fool of myself! haha (but peep the Bounce mag shorts in Japan, word up!)


Making up for my lack of b-boy skills by playing some crazy breaks.


Legs is definitely my homeboy and we treat each other like brothers, but I don’t get how people always mistake us for looking like one another. Huh?


ALLDAY MAGAZINE’s Atsuko, cool Shuhai, and my man Mamushi hooked me with the ill 1 of 20 Nike Team Elite II–ooh wee! I switched them for the Team Elite II Shox then wore those the rest of the trip!

Shout out to J Rocc and his girl Jessie de Colombia (representa!) for bringing us out, word up!

    Cool Bob Love.
    Many thanks for all your wonderful posts & supreme hoop knowledge sharing with your magazine & TV show. My problem is that I cannot buy any old issues of Bounce or even subscribe to the Bounce Magazine…could you please contact me at my email address? I tried using the online form (sorry holmes…it don’t work). I really want to buy some back issues from you. Can you hook me up?
