[edit] Crip Walk

I grew up in Poomona, Ca, and I can remeber doing this dance in the 4th or 5th grade. That was around 1980 or 81. This style of dance was not started in the 1990's.

I agree. Seems that I saw hip-hop vids in the mid to late eighties with the same moves. 00:16, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

Somebody wanna elaborate on that 'nimble movements of their feet to spell out' this or that, please? Kar98 22:32, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

I grew up in Inglewood and South Central in the early 1970s. When I was in the 10th grade in 1974, the crip walk was around then. And what you fools call the crip walk now is not the crip walk.

If it was "around" in 1974, then it isn't correct to say that the Crips invented it in the early 90's, is it? If you have this on authority, or can post links referencing the Crip walk being around in 1974, then I invite you to edit the article.

I haven't seen the dance performed, but that photo series with Snoop looks like something out of The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

[edit] Xzibit

I was reading the page and came across xzibit, are you guy's sure he's not a crip? I'm sure he would have gotten his a$$ kicked if he c-walked and wasn't a crip. He alway's has black on (Shotgun Crip??)--71.116.65.241 19:33, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Songs featuring the Crip Walk

Is it the song lyrics or they do it in the video? Lajbi 18:36, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

Both. But mostly in videos. GoSu's C-walk is incredible. You should check it out at Google Video.

[edit] Crip Walk Censored

'The C-Walk was censored in the video of Snoop Dogg's hit single "Drop It Like It's Hot".' I just watched this video again, and the C-walk was shown, but Snoop throwing up gang signs after was censored instead. Are there different versions of the video? --Melissa Della 07:47, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
