Styles N Dris

In this quacktastic episode the salt n peppers Soul Stepperz lament about Minnesota films lacking logistical accuracy then delve into a conversation about battle tactics. Ozzy recounts his quasi racially awkward encounter with a well meaning elderly ex-hippie on the golf course and then goes on to speak about his infamous battle against Bboy Machine!

Greetings y'all! We are back after a lil breaky break and we are in full swing tryna improve our long game 🤙. We start off this episode with a return guest Mr. Stepchild as he explains a recent arrest....the fuk?! Turnstyle shows up a little late but then we decide to go all over the board probably due to excess consumption of energy drinks so it's gonna get deep, silly, and philosophical. STAY GOLDEN and wash yo hands after you makes pee pee!

Welcome to another edition of StylesNDris! We have a very special guest on this episode, another alumni of Assassin's Crew as well as Funklordz/Solar Flare Natives and the other half of The Threadcount podcast...a fellow dancer, producer, and Chef the man known as Guerilla Will aka Thick Flair aka El Jefé aka Baritone Loc!!! We get all types of philosophical talking collard greens, Jean Claude Van Damme, did Jimmy Hendrix pass away to make room for Prince, mentors, and we threw some dance shit in there too! So remember if you don't like it, learn to love it.....wooooooooo!!!!!

Oh damn did this episode go off the rails! We got our boy Steve aka Showtime aka Stevie Blue Eyes and Stepchild aka Scorp1 aka Charles Edgar Queso back at Rocklordz headquarters with a case of Grainbelt Nordeast and boy does shit get nutty. Turnstyle babbles as per usual but then at about the halfway mark we talk dance celebrity death matches, Johnny Craze using the "F" word, death row last meals, Littlefoot's cooking skills/jacked legs as well as eating Brazilian Rugby ass if downed in the Andes mountains......what this has to do with House we have no idea but it's all in good fun and the moral of the story is keep your friends close and Brazilian Rugby teams closer........don't forget leg day 🤙

In this dirtieth thirtieth episode, the boys talk about how to find the silver lining in a bad day as Ozzy recalls a tough time at the golf course as well as some caca news involving his favorite football club Juventus. This one is a bit of a philosophical one so break out the meditation cushion, sit in the lotus position, burn some incense and enlighten the fuck up with Guru Turnstyle and Baba Dris and we tickle your third eye.......hey!.....get your mind outta the gutter you potty mouff!

Enjoy and repeat after us.....there's no place like Om.....Namaste Fuckers 🤙

Yeah.....We went all over the place in this one. 

...Also Ozzy has been 32 for 6 months. Yay.

Junious “House” Brickhouse is an internationally established educator, choreographer and cultural preservationist with over 30 years of experience in Urban Dance Culture. Born in Virginia Beach, VA, his dance training began at family gatherings dancing the funk styles of the era. Growing up, he sought out all the learning opportunities available to him, from community centers to parking lots, where young people were teaching each other and building communities around urban dance forms. Early on, he established himself as a leader and mentor in those communities, serving to educate and guide others. At age 18, Junious embarked on an over 21-year career as a Logistics Professional in the U.S. Army and later as a Department of Defense contractor. Throughout his time in various international assignments, Junious developed both a military and dance career, eventually rising to positions of leadership and responsibility in both areas. As the Founding Executive Director of Urban Artistry Inc. (www.urbanartistry.org), Junious has inspired and created a movement of artists dedicated to the preservation of urban dance culture, specifically within communities of practice. As Urban Artistry’s Executive Director, Junious produces projects such as The International Soul Society Festival, The Preservatory and the UA Digital Archives to encourage other artists to research and document tradition bearers and their contributions. As a scholar/practitioner, Junious teaches at colleges and universities, using an experiential approach to teaching, Movement of the African American South, Hip Hop Culture as well as Urban Dance movement and the cultural context from which it evolves. As the Director of Next Level, an initiative sponsored by the U.S. Department of State Bureau of Educational and Cultural Affairs in association with the Department of Music at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the Meridian International Center for Cultural Diplomacy, Junious works tirelessly to promote international cultural exchange in underserved communities, conflict transformation and entrepreneurial skill-building through Hip Hop music and dance. A citizen folklorist, Junious also conducts independent research into those cultural traditions whose influence is reflected in urban dance culture. From Ring Shouts and Acoustic Country Blues to Hip Hop, understanding the nature and meaning of these art forms and their influences is what motivates this artist.

In this episode, we are joined on location at the Beatcave of the illustrious dynamic duo known as MPLS House! Marcus and Angel have been in the game as DJ's/Dancers/Producers for over 20 years both as fans and practitioners on various levels especially with Angel being one of the original Battlecats here in the Twin Cities! We go into a very philosophical discussion about House, Dance, inter-tribal harmony and all the things that make our souls bling. This was truly a treat and an honour so sit back....relax....light some incense.....enjoy a tasty beverage and tickle your ears with some verbal sonics brought to you by MPLS HOUSE and STYLESNDRIS.....a mafuckin crossover so good that Allen Iverson would say "damn....that was a good mafuckin crossover!"
