My man told me he was sick and that it didn't look good
In 2002 I was hanging out with Kurtis Blow for a Interview we did over the night. He drove me through the city to diffrent locations. One was a Bronx school gymhall.
I came into the hall and there was this dude on the wheels of steel backspinning 12".
The way he moved his body and his hands while backspinnig reminded me on a dude I had seen 8 years earlier on German music TV.
This dude was Grandwizard Theodore.
Now for the guys in NY its nothing special, but to a kid from Germany which follows the culture for so long this was very special.
When I turned around Kurtis introduced me to a man who was extremly skinny looking.
He said to me "This is Frosty Freeze from the Rock Steady Crew"
Holy shit !!!!!
I watched the RSC when I was a kid on TV, these dudes where my heros when I was a dancer back in the 80s.
He looked not very healthy even back than, but it was a honour for me to meet him.

AIDS-related complications.
And contrary to Spidey, I think it IS important to talk about the illness.
Buckle up and use a condom folks.
