Charles "Lil Buck" Riley is a son of Memphis, Tennessee who specializes in jookin - a style of street dance in the "Gansta Walk" genre that focuses on siding and stepping movements with pantomime. 

Lil Buck earns his Friday Props for his collaboartions and works over the years. Below you see an example of his new art juxtaposed with classic art - the result is sublime.

Lil Buck has performed with the likes of Madonna and Yo Yo Ma and has brought his skill to bear to help tell stories that matter. An example is his work with Alexa Meade in the "Color of Reality". Together with Jon Boogz he brings attention to social issues.

 

Sometimes when I am researching for Props I come arcoss an artist who manages to defy my ability to sum up in words what their art evokes. Lil Buck is one such artist. All I can say is if you like what you see here do yourself a favor and check out more.
