High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Hip-hop dance refers to dance styles primarily performed to hip-hop music or that have evolved as part of hip-hop culture. It includes a wide range of styles notably breaking, locking, and popping which were created in the 1970s by African Americans and made popular by breaking, locking, and popping crews. These crews and styles gained mainstream exposure by being showcased in their early stages on the television show Soul Train and in the 1980s films Breakin`, Beat Street, and Wild Style. The dance industry responded with a studio based version of hip-hop—sometimes called new style—and jazz funk. These studio styles were developed by technically trained dancers who wanted to create choreography for hip-hop music from the hip-hop dances they saw being performed on the street. Because of this development, hip-hop dance is now practiced at both studios and outside spaces. The commercialization of hip-hop dance continued into the 1990s and 2000s with the production of several other television shows and movies such as The Grind, Dance 360, Planet B-Boy, Rize, America`s Best Dance Crew, the Step Up film francise, and The LXD, a web series. Though the dance is established in entertainment, it still maintains a strong presence in urban neighborhoods which has led to the creation of street dance derivatives turfing, krumping, and jerkin`.
