What’s Hot In B.R.

The LOLLI-GAG a new dance

By Tamika Jett

Watching music videos on BET you may see dances like the walk it out, the chicken noodle soup and the motorbike. These dances start from local cities and make it to mainstream when put in a music video.

Baton Rouge music artists may not have made it to mainstream, but local dances done in B.R. are so HOT that they should be known nationwide. Some popular B.R. dances are the "jig," "the ratchet," "break ya back," and one of the newest dances called the "lolli-gag."

Explaining how to do these dances is nearly impossible. But, all you have to do is go to a club once and you will see people doing all of these dances. If the club is not playing songs such as Wipe Me Down by Foxx and Zoom by Lil Boosie, you may not see people doing these dances.

Just like DJ UNK has almost everyone in the country doing the walk it out, Lil Boosie has many people in Baton Rouge and surrounding areas doing the ratchet. One SPANKIN NEW dance that is super HOT is the "lolli-gag." It was made up by the local rap group Da Future.

If you go to a party and hear a song called the Lollygag look for a member of Da Future, or fan of Da Future if you want to learn the dance. It’s HOT! Da Future recently performed the "Lolli-gag" song at the LSU Alpha’s Miss Black and Gold Pageant. As they performed many people in the audience got up and did the dance along with the group.

Dances called the skip and work your elbows are from Baton Rouge’s neighboring city, New Orleans. These dances are being done more and more in Baton Rouge clubs as New Orleans songs get heard in B.R.

If you really want to learn these HOT dances contact me! I know how to do them all.
