Ken Swift emphasized that, unlike sports, breaking offers freedom of expression and community, shaping one's reputation through creativity and individual naming of moves.
As a founding member of the Rock Steady Crew, Ken Swift believes breaking is an indispensable part of hip-hop culture, but firmly excludes it from being classified as a sport.
The recent inclusion of breaking in the Olympic Games highlights its evolution but also raises questions about its identity as an art form versus a competitive sport.
Swift acknowledges the significance of breaking's journey from the streets of New York to a global stage while asserting that its essence as an expression should remain intact.
