From the Paper:

"While many consider the Hip Hop dance to be the most influential phenomenon, Carl S. Taylor and Virgil Taylor (2004) think otherwise. They believe that hip hop street dance phenomenon has taken a back seat. "Throughout the last 25 years, a new form of expression has continually evolved despite the efforts of many in the so-called 'establishment' to minimize its influence on young people. This form of expression that was once limited to urban music and dance has become a widespread form of communication and expression by young people throughout the world."
