THE BRONX BOYS ROCKING CREW ESTABLISHED 1975...
HOW THE NAME ROCKSTEADY CAME ABOUT AND WHO INVENTED THE NAME FOR THE CREW?
FROM: BATCH TBB.....THE HISTORY OF TBB ROCKING CREW, AND THE FACTS OF ROCK STEADY'S BIRTH.
In the meeting held in St.James Park in 1979 when I broke up the TBB Rocking Crew and Jimmy Lee turned his TBB burnside division to Rock Steady I asked him why that name? And he simply said to me: "Batch, because TBB Rocking Crew was always Rocking Steady!
The first Rock Steady shirts were brown with white letters, and on the bottom of the shirts Jimmy added TBB to let the people know that Rock Steady was actually still The Bronx Boys.
In my years since I knew jimmy he was a true TBB Rocking Crew Vice Pres, from the heart! he loved The Bronx Boys deeply. In Jimmy's heart, to him, Rock Steady was actually acting as TBB Rocking Crew. I can honestly tell you this much about my brother jimmy Lee. Jimmy Lee
was always breaking other crews apart for TBB Rocking Crew when we would go battle against any crew out there back in those old school days. And when I made the decision to break up TBB Rocking Crew jimmy tried to convince me not to. He wasn't alright with my decision but respectfully accepted it since I was the pres of TBB Rocking Crew back then. And when I did, I left him without any other choice but to take his division and change the name of TBB Rocking Crew to Rock Steady which he had named it back in 1979.
As for Crazy Legs, I honestly admire him, and I have nothing but love and respect for him. Especially for his honorable position today in the world of Rocking/bboy, and for his love and part on the history of Rock Steady. In fact, I am a true fan of his. And lets continue to keep in mind that Crazy Legs was, without question, the main one to continue the original foundation of Bronx Rocking/bboy...
So, just for the record, let me assure all you today in the Rocking communities that I only speak for what is right and fair, and for what TBB Rocking Crew sincerity stands for.
The positive good thing about TBB Rocking Crew is that we have many devoted members that will always support its commuities, and they will see to it that The Bronx Boys will never be left out of the important part and role that we played in the history of Rocking/bboy,
which we have been a true part of since 1975.
Respectfully,
l am BATCH God Father of TBB Rocking Crew.
