What is Krump?
1.
Krump is an acronym for Kingdom Radically Uplifted Mighty Praise. It is a dance form that was pioneered by Tight Eyez aka Ceasare Willis and Lil C along with a group of others namely Big Mijo, Slayer, and Hurricane. It is an aggressive, and spiritual form of dance with christian roots. Its movements include Chest Pops, Stomps, Armswings, Syncs, Puzzles, Bangs, and Kill-Offs. There are supposedly 3 Levels to krumping. Krump, Buckness, and Ampness. While some (clowns) mistakingly claim that Tommy the Clown created krumping this is not the case.
Dont try to krump you're just a server.

A supposed form of dancing that bears resemblance to an epileptic seizure.
Quite funny to watch. You laugh at the dancer, not with them. They think they're amazingly cool.

"Mate, I think they're having a seizure"
"Don't worry, it's just the 'dancing'"
"Seriously, dude.. Call an ambulance"

Much like breakdancing was a benchmark of inner city culture in the ’80s, a dance movement called krumping is creating its own subculture among teens in Los Angeles neighborhoods such as Compton, South Central, and Watts. Informed equally by hip-hop, African tribal rituals, pantomime and martial arts, krumping is a frenetic, hyper fast-paced dancing style. Dancers gather in school grounds, parking lots, and yards to perform and “battle dance” each other; participants are typically vocal opponents of violence, thus making the krumping scene an alternative to the gang wars that plague the areas where krumping is popular. Theatrical face paint is also worn by the dancers, which gives krumping its other moniker, “clowning”. While authentic krumping is fuelled by an intensity that would probably be found intimidating by most of mainstream America, we wouldn’t be surprised to at least see it find its way to other urban areas.

A type of dance pioneered and invented by the Cartoonz Family. You have to feel the music within you and it involves fast, seizure-like dancing resembling much like a African Tribe's war dance. It is NOT to be confused with clown dancing because they do not paint their face and have no lower body movement like clown dancers.
Look at him on the dance floor getting KRUMP!
