S2E6 | Maceo Frost

S2E6 is a conversation between Christian and Maceo Frost. Named after James Browns funky saxophone player, Maceo was raised in Stockholm, Sweden by his street-dance legend father and skateboard-rebel mother. Underground culture is practically embedded in his DNA. He discovered filmmaking at 11 and grew up never having to wonder what to do in life. Check out the episode here.

Willie "Fudd" Hodge answers: "I looked it up and it says: Krump is a street dance from Los Angeles this and that but I'm like... Thats aint what i feel. Krump is Buck to me, and what is Buck? The nickname for riding a bull, you see the sporadic movement and it's uncontrollable. But you can see all the energy from it.
