who started the trash talking or whatever you want to call it. This topic was created to learn more about the organization but look what has resulted. Yes we addressed that our stepping comes from the motherland. Yet the other BLGO members on this site are the ones who insisted that we retrieved it from them. We are not saying that they are wrong for not recognizing the origin but they are saying we are wrong for doing so. Of course it was not taken directly from Africa today but we just believed it evolved from there. And please don't say we say that to discredit other BLGO's because you are not a part of our organization to be able to say that. Maybe you just feel discredited when we say that but that is not the purpose. We are essentially showing a different "upbringing". And I will become a part of the community this is just one of the few topics that was focused on my org that I wanted to comment on. To my fellow Groovers I just want you to understand that we will never stop being questioned and disrespected because of our youthfulness and uniqueness (this not targeted to anyone but just a general statement from what i experienced on and off this website) so please continue to do with you do despite any negativity. And to Dr. Phil addressing what you said to NY Groover it seems that you are looking for a repeat of 2002. He doesnt have to continue this thread any longer constantly defending our org when people just want to belittle it. No matter what others say we are not here for popularity,Fame, Parting, or etc those are just benefits that come with our true purpose uplifting the community so people can talk and say what they want but we the brothers of Groove Phi Groove know what we stand for.

The stepping that you all do does NOT come from the motherland! If it does, then you all better start doing the South African gumboot dance in stepshows, exactly as they do it in South Africa (wellington boots and all). Yes, I think that's the answer. You can honor your heritage and bring a different flavor all at the same time. That will show everyone!!!

I said it evolved from there into what it is now.

Um, actually "phantomreaper" said this proving that you and he are one in the same. Perpin' ain't easy I guess.

Some advice...when you perp, be sure to keep your aliases straight.

Lol i was in no way trying to pretend to be 2 people. Before I pledged I was researching my org and came across this website and let the urge to respond and phantomreaper was created. Now, forgetting that I made that I created this one and found out i had 2. so i decided until this one cleared I would continue to use phantomreaper, but now this one is cleared and so I am responding.

Sure. We've never heard this explanation before.

Sure. Grooves can only come here to explain their organization and debate us on the main boards.
