Flattop, if you read this, it Your Old Buddy Mike The Robot Alien of The 90's, when We were both Performing at 3rd. St. Promenade. I was dressed in Black with Red lights all over Me. You & (Fat Boy) Raul were hanging out together back then, & We all had some good times together performing & telling stories. What people do not know about You is that You are a multitalented Person. You are one heck of a Singer & You make all of Your Costumes, always a Sharp Dresser. You have made a Living doing what you love & have become a Legend in The Dance World, or shall I say entertainment. world. You were known all over the World as well as Myself. I do not perform anymore & I'm teaching Dancing. The next time I'm in LA , I know where to find You & will Look you up. Take Care & God Bless. THE ROBOT OF 3RD STREET PROMENADE.
Flattop is like Royalty to those dancers who LOVE strobing, robotics, total control, and that crazy musicality... I can compare the feeling I get when I watch his dance to the feeling a Michael Jackson fanatic would get seeing MJ on stage. Truly a legend.
Cool,I asked him and he's been dancing for more then 40 years. My friend and mentor Damon Frost had awesome story when first saw him at Venice Beach in 1983 and Flattop had such high level already then. Did the signature moves like split etc. After I met him and had a private workshop I got more inspired then ever in popping. For me he is one of funkiest people I know. Wow
Well flattop has been dancing for prolly 35 years. No there is no fanpage that I know of. But I really like flattop too, and if you want to see more flattop videos you should check out my FLAT TOP playlist. I have collected all the videos of flattop here on youtube. 41 videos and still counting up.
ahha so funny! Like this vid. I just came back from a trip to L.A yesterday and got him and video too, he is pretty nice guy and so kind with the kids. good job FlatTop
Hallo Mr.Thank you fro this describtion, I remember such people,Now I feel down , and I feel down very often in my neighbourhood, But as I come somewhere and meet someone similar to Flat top, I mean good dancer who is little bit like more extraordinary ,It then helps me very much out of trouble It helps me out of psychiatry a depresive thinking:-)
I like the dancers they are all very good, And good music ,good atmosphere , I wish I could be there with them :-) And I like the alien music of Flat top ,which is not in this particular video .. I would like to see you all in a group dance ,like the oldschool dancers who were dancing in a line, row and queue robots , Mr Flat top , at least 15 years - I train 10 years and I am done:-) He started in old days ,I like it,he surely has seen many great forgotten dancers,Master,Does he have a fanpage?

Hello Beatstep! Nice to here from you. We did this in The end of February. Yes he still do and been doing dancing for 40 years :). Sadly I was to excited so a forgot to take he's card. Dance out? My girl - Kool Skool is a really dope song. Love it! Thank you so much! I'm going at one of the best street dance schools in ten world! Åsa Folkhögskola in Sköldinge, Sweden! Check it out:)
Oh my gosh, how old is he now?! is this the new video?! The wide angle lens and the quality looks like a true 2013 recorded video! Gosh! He still can do this!
商书豪 sure man!! We met him 2012 in this video and he still goes to "the city walk" at universal studios in LA every other evening/night to do some buskin and has been doing this since 80/90s I think. You can't even believe how funky he is in real life. I have met and danced with a lot of people and he is exceptional
商书豪 you should he is a very nice guy and last year I met Mr Animation in Vegas took his number so we could invite him to Sweden. Sadly he got hit by a Uber driver two weeks after may he R.I.P. So terrible he also seemed supper cool. Mr Wiggles, Popping Pete and many live in Vegas if you end up there. Anyway if you travel to D.C. make sure to meet up Assassins my friends Rashaad and Ryan. If you go to The Bay / San Francisco catch up with Dennis Infante and his crew they are dope plus you have some OGs from Playboyz in SF or SD. Thanks for sharing your energy and comment. Good luck with everything peace

gcinfamous sorry I don't even have Instagram or Facebook so I wouldn't know. Think His name is Ruben Luckyhall but maybe it doesn't matter. I used to have him on facebook before and I don't have a number sadly. Best of luck awesome you got to meet him. Sometimes he can have a private after his shows. Not cheap haha but worth it
he can do more but he don't like to do his max unless u put money in his bucket..lol he said he'll naw..this is my boy..I'll tell this if u even meet him..say can u lean backwards all the way to the ground. I mean until your back touch the and still break dance ..or can u do the spits and walk by just moving your ankle..he can do much more but he won't cause people don't want to pay him right..lol I've seen him off an on for 30 years break dancing..he is just playing in these vid..He's not serious.
