Krumping for Christ-Another Way to Worship?
August 5, 2008 · Filed Under Gospel Music News · Comment
Krumping got its start on the streets of South Central Los Angeles about 10 years ago, among young people looking for a way to fight back in a creative way against a life of struggle. It’s a regular feature of the Mattapan church’s youth ministry, as well as with a larger Boston community of hundreds of young people who feel a connection to God.
"We don’t just do it to dance. We do it for something higher. Something more than us, more than movements, more than anything we say out of our mouths. . . . We’re using this as a weapon to fight against the things that we go through daily."-Benito Henri
"There are a lot of ways to worship. . . . This is our way."-Giovanni Pabon of Randolph, one of Jubilee’s Royal Family
