Bronx-Boy to Bogaloo-boy to Break boy. Bronx boy was bboy's 1st name because bboying was created in the bronx. Even though there are different arts were created around then that look similar to bboying. Bboying came from the bronx. Bogaloo boy came around when DJ kool herc named the bboys as bboying reached farther out then in bronx. DJ kool herc named them at one of his famous Block Parties!. Break boy came along when Bboying got out farther and farhter. Now bboying is international. People made break boys mainstream. Break boy came from the word breakdancing. Breakdancing is what the media named us. Bboys are not breakdancers.
Damn that breakdancer was wack in the pepsi commercial. All he did was mills and flares. But dayyuumm that bboy right their on the floor is rocking it to the beats yall.

It was originally made to be "beat boy" because no one had associated that type of gymnastic dance to the word break yet. Now it can be associated directly with breakdancing.

bboy stands for break boy and is the only true dance of hip hop. The name was givin first by dj kool herc to his dancers at one of his famous parties. Break can stand for a few things. It can stand for when the dj played a song and extended the break for people to dance, and it can also stand for people trying to reach a breaking point in their dancing and trying to reach new limits. The media began to call it "break dancing" but that is not the correct name. Bboying started with top rocking and dancing at parties, then was taken to the floor by people like the nigga twins. Now over time it as progressed and become more acrobatic and has added new style. Bboying is an element of hip hop and is its own dance, but a lot of moves came from a variety of places including tap, jazz, gymnastics, capoeira, and yoga, and keeps on growing.
