The New School cats are burying themselves because their shelf lives are so short. Respecting the culture and your elders can't HURT you As with ANYTHING the students gain the most. Why would they NOT want to study the art form??? What bad can come out of learning the history of your craft that's some nikka shyt to think you know it all especially when you have shows like The Get Down or The Breaks out detailing the history. the old school artists are able to tour to this DAY. What New School artists will be able to do this I mean this is REALLY a STUPID argument
