TUF TIM TWIST,BORN 1965 RUNCORN,CHESHIRE,ENGLAND THE YOUNGEST OF 4 CHILDREN,MOTHER AND FATHER SPLIT WHEN I WAS 1 YEARS OLD,MY FATHER TOOK MYSELF AND MY BROTHER AND MY MOTHER TOOK MY 2 SISTERS,MY MOTHER REMARRIED AND HAD 2 MORE CHILDREN,MY HALF BROTHER AND SISTER,I DID NOT SEE MY MOTHER AGAIN UNTILL I WAS 19 YEARS OLD,THIS HAS HAD A MASSIVE IMPACT ON MY LIFE AND THE WAY I COPE AND DEAL WITH THE WORLD,MY FATHER REMARRIED AND ALL I CAN SAY IS IT WASNT THE BEST TIME OF MY LIFE...THINGS HAPPENED THAT HAUNT MY MIND TO THIS DAY...I WAS NOT CLOSE TO MY FATHER,WE NEVER CONNECTED THAT WAY,TO THIS DAY I DONT RECALL A SINGLE CONVERSATION I HAD WITH HIM ALL MY LIFE.....DONT GET ME WRONG I LOVED MY FATHER,BUT SADLY HE PASSED AWAY A FEW YEARS AGO BEFORE HE COULD SEE WHO I WAS....I HAD LOST TOUCH WITH MY FAMILY AT THE TIME I FOUND HIP HOP,OR I SHOULD SAY HIP HOP FOUND ME...I WAS HOMELESS AND ONLY HAD THE CLOTHES ON MY BACK BASICALLY,I HAD STARTED TO SLEEP ROUGH ON THE REGULAR BEFORE I LEFT HOME FOR GOOD...BREAKING INTO PARKED CARS AT NIGHT AND SLEEPING IN SHOP DOORWAYS,NOT EVEN MY CLOSEST FRIENDS NEW THIS...AT A YOUNG AGE I LEARNT TO HIDE BEHIND A CHARACTER I HAD CREATED,A WAY OF COPING WITH THE SITUATION I SUPPOSE,SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST...ONLY THE STRONG SURVIVE...I WAS A BIT OF A DREAMER AND NEW SOMETHING ELSE WAS OUT THERE WAITING FOR ME...I AWAYZ LOOKED AT THE WORLD FROM A DIFFERENT POINT OF VIEW,THE LACK OF LOVE IN MY LIFE HELPED ME TO SEE THE WORLD FOR WHAT IT TRUELLY IS FROM A YOUNG AGE....
IT WAS SOME TIME IN 1983 AND I SAW "BROKEN GLASS" DOING STREET SHOWS IN LOCAL TOWNS AND CITY'S,I USED TO TRAVEL AROUND ALOT ON MY OWN STEALING FROM SPORTS SHOPS...AND ANY OTHER SHOPS I COULD...
"BROKEN GLASS" FOR THOSE WHO DONT KNOW,ARE 1 OF THE PIONEER B.BOY CREWS IN THE UK...THEY WAS BASED IN MANCHESTER/LIVERPOOL(DAVE THE WAVE) I WATCHED THE SHOWS WITH AMAZEMENT,AT THIS TIME I HAD KNOW IDEA WHAT I WAS SEEING...
IT WAS LATER ON IN THE YEAR I WAS AT A LOCAL DISCO,AT A YOUTH CENTRE..AND I SEEN A FRIEND FROM MY CHILDHOOD POPPIN ON THE DANCE FLOOR,HE BLEW MY MIND...WE TALKED AND DECIDED TO HOOK UP AND LEARN TOGETHER,AND THE REST IS HISTORY...
THAT FRIEND WAS MY B.BOY PARTNER UNTILL 1996..."T.C.BREAK" WAS HIS NAME,WE WENT ON TO TRAVEL THE WORLD TOGETHER,AND ACHIEVED MOST OF OUR GOALS.
IN 1992 WE WAS BOTH PUT DOWN IN "ROCK STEADY CREW",BUT IN 1996 WE SADLEY PARTED AS A PARTNERSHIP,WHICH CHANGED MY LIFE FOR EVER...I JUST WANNA GIVE RESPECT TO "T.C.BREAK" AND SAY...I MISS ALL THE GOOD TIME'S WE HAD,AND IM SORRY FOR ANY PAIN I BROUGHT TO YOU AND LYNNE...THIS IS FROM MY HEART,TRUELY...I WISH YOU GOOD LUCK,PEACE AND HAPPINESS IN YOUR FUTURE AWAYZ...BROTHA...
SO ITS EARLY 80'S,WE HAD..BEAT STREET,WILD STYLE,STYLE WARS,FLASHDANCE,HIP HOP A STREET HISTORY(the film with GARY BYRD rapping all the way through it),THE BREAKDANCE MOVIES,AND MUSIC VIDS LIKE,HEY YOU,UPROCK,BUFFALO GALS,AND BREAK MACHINE,AND ALSO THE GRAFFITI BIBLE,SPRAYCAN ART...AND THE ODD CLIP THAT WOULD POP UP ON TV EVERYNOW N THEN...THIS WAS FROM 83 TO AROUND 85...
1984,WE STARTED OUR 1ST CREW,"MAKE A BREAK" WE GOT THE NAME FROM "HEY YOU"..THE ROCK STEADY CREW,show them what to do "MAKE A BREAK" make a move..
IF YOU DONT KNOW,BY NOW YOU SHOULD LEARN,WHEN "ROCK STEADY CREW' FIRST BLEW UP,THEY WAS THE BIGGEST THING ON THE PLANET...THEY HAD THE NO1 RECORD IN COUNTRY'S ALL OVER THE WORLD...IM NOT JUST SAYING THIS BUT IM SURE IM NOT THE ONLY ONE,"ROCK STEADY CREW" WAS THE BIGGEST INFLUENCE IN MY LIFE AND CONTINUE'S TO BE SO TO THIS VERY DAY,AT THE TIME IN 1983/84 I HAD NO IDEA I WOULD BE A PART OF RSC,OR EVEN MEET THEM...YOU SEE WHAT ALOT OF PEEPZ DONT REALIZE,BUT BY THE TIME B.BOYING AND HIP HOP REACHED ALL OUR SHORES IT HAD DIED OUT BEFORE IN NEW YORK AND WAS COMING BACK TO LIFE,AND THE WORLDWIDE SUCCESS OF "ROCK STEADY CREW" WAS THE MAIN REASON...
SO ON WE GO,MY 1ST CREW...I ONLY LIVED IN A SMALL TOWN,JUST OUTSIDE LIVERPOOL AND MANCHESTER...RUNCORN,BUT BACK THEN EVERY TOWN HAD 3 OR 4 CREWS,AND EVERY CITY HAD 10 OR 20,THATS HOW BIG THIS THING WAS,WE JUST STARTED LOCAL,TAKING OUT ALL THE CREWS...AT THIS TIME I WAS ALSO WRITING GRAFFITI TO,I WAS A FIEND FOR THIS THING,IT WAS ALL I HAD,BEFORE HIP HOP I WAS NOTHING,JUST ANOTHER TROUBLE CAUSING KID,TO BE CONTINUED...
