And, this level of Nupedom has my ♎respect. It's been lost to the younger Kappas who carry but canNot step with and twirl their canes. All that shimmying is a 👎😯😒😱😵😷🤒 No for me!! Where has This kinda precision and appreciation of their traditions gone!? Sometimes, it seems the younger Kappas are too afraid of losing face if they drop their canes during a show to even try to incorporate Real ol'skool canework into it. They rely on rolling their shoulders and squatting down instead. Shit'd! If you drop it, pick it up and geaux even harder afterward!! It's Really odd and disconcerting to see some of the stark differences in the D9 and how so many of our newest members have begun to stray from the traditions of organizations built on traditions. 🤔🙄 Idk! What I do know is that This is how I re♎all y'all getting down once upon a time and I wish it was how you still did. This was engaging, entertaining, masculine, and slick.
It is all about the Kanes - Bring 'em back (more Kane less shimmy) I LOVE the stepping for homecoming with the canes and I miss my favorite rhythmic step!!!!!!!!!! it brought back so many fond memories 💚💗💚 Silver Star Soror of AKA - Spr'88
I hadn't seen MANLY Nupes like this in a years. Nupes used to be so smooth and Kool. Not so much now. LOVED the (pimp) Kane work. Young boys don't even have a Kappa Kane anymore. That's crazy. It's what make the Nupes different in the step shows.
Thank you. I knew I could not be the only person wondering what happened to the Nupes. The current days "nupes" have taken the shimmy to a place that is not a good look. Lincoln U Kappa's stepped hard and smooth.
I Qouldn't agree more, Ladies. This was what I reQall my fellow '11 D9 Brothers bringing to the yard and to stepshows. The shimmying youngsters have No klue how to do this. So, they rely heavily on the femininized, non-skill requiring squat and shoulder rolling they often do now. #WhereHaveTheNupesGone
DeeDee Domingue Nupes are still manly, the young Nupes adjust to the mentality of the ladies of today. Young and older women love the shimmy. I am a Nupe, I know and don’t care much for the shimmy, because I’m ole’ skool and prefer the Kane, but if you confront a young Nupe, you’ll see just how manly he is... they do the shimmy for the ladies, but realize they can’t make all ladies happy.
Spr 2K7 E Nu Esquire Nupes. This is what Kappa looks like and should be. Bring back the Old Guard and teach fundamentals. Much deference. Nupes Against The Shimmy. NATS.
