Harlem Shakedown 

The Harlem Shake is an urban dance that has become the nation’s newest Youtube sensation. Despite what its name may lead you to believe, the dance originated in Rochester, New York sometime between the years 2008 and 2011. The creator, Jason “Tizzle” T., discovered the Shake, also known as the Rochester shuffle, while in an unstable state he prefers to call his “rare form” or more simply put, grossly intoxicated. The dance inexplicably disappeared for over a year as Tizzle, or “Tizz”, the name his loyal followers prefer to revere him with, moved to North Carolina. Unsurprisingly, given the cultural appeal of the shuffle, the dance reappeared in the fall of 2012 sometime between the hours of 1 and 630 am as Tizz orchestrated an unruly event known as “Project Mayhem”. Hundreds of videos have been made in an attempt to emulate Tizzle’s ghetto, yet refined moves but none have been able to match Tizzle’s genius.

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
