I've always seen dancing as a form of entertainment, but Lil Buck has made it an art form that is as moving as Beethoven. I wish he knew the amazing energy he produces and how wonderful it is to be on the receiving end of it. The world has been made more beautiful for his being in it.
I've only discovered Lil Buck through the Netflix doco MOVE. I am inspired and mesmerised. I've shared and told so many people about Lil Buck. Whenever I finish watching this, I am filled with awe. Thank you for your art, your gift, your passion for dance! Arigato.
WHEN ART IMITATES LIFE, AND LIFE IMITATES ART! Watching this man is absolutely breathtaking, every time. Thank you, Lil Buck, for sharing and pushing the boundaries of your talent and your art.
I have a thing about dance. I don’t know what it is. I don’t even really have the vocabulary to write about it, but I’m going to try. Lil Buck’s performance in the above is about 4 minutes. His vocabulary, in this piece, is a perfect synthesis of jookin, a form of Memphis hip-hop, and ballet. As he ascends the escalator in the museum, it’s as if he is floating, weightless in the space around him. He doesn't seem bound by the conventional rules of gravity. His body moves in ways I’ve never seen before, but I immediately recognize it. The lighting is hot and white like the interiors of 2001: A Space Odyssey. He is an astronaut, he is otherworldly. It is the type of beauty that reaches “into my veins.” He pirouettes as he passes Matisse's “The Dance”-- a painting that is so famous it is now a trope of celebration, and his spin elevates the image and then transcends it. But there is more. The music crescendos as he enters the main room with a large Picasso painting, Cubist, but I don't know the name of it. But it is a deconstructing of form into something new. Lil Buck does the same thing with his body through a series of balletic isolations, and then another pirouette, this one closer to the ground, and then he is gone.
He is way too underrated. People see Baryshnikov doing modern dance as a ballet dancer and think he is so versatile. Why doesn't Lil Buck get the same credit for taking street dance and mixing it with ballet and other movement forms? I think his range of movement and style far outweighs Baryshnikov.
Très, très beau !!! Lil Buck, cette performance est magnifique, vous défiez la gravité. C'est d'une beauté extrême et même surréaliste! L'art rapproche l'homme de la perfection et du divin. Le monde a besoin de plus d'artistes comme vous.
Found out about this from the powerful, small book We Can’t Breathe. Well worth reading. This is stunning. He looks like a cubist painting at 1 pt. Amazing talent.
Me: trying to do this 0:35 Also me (2 secs later): Hello Ambulance? I broke both of my ankles! Can you please pick me up? Me at the hospital: right here doctor that's how it all happened 0:35
I love this clip, I come back to it all the time. Craziest thing is his dancing and technique keep improving, many of the moves he is doing here are even tighter and more impressive in the last year or 2. God bless Lil Buck!
He is gifted, very talented, an artist it’s pure authentic highly upper echelon art on a totally different level that’s captivating you will be intrigued every time you watch him perform!🫶🏾 continue being great love!!! So happy & proud of you xoxoxbigcuzmeda😘
One of the best moments in contemporary art. Watching this year after year and it still impresses.

He’s on a movie called “Emperor” and had to Google him. Didn’t know he is a super talented dancer. WOW! So graceful

Guy is versatile as hell! What dancer can move to rap/trap music and then switch to classical pieces - I don't know none?!

On top of a brilliant performance, his facial expressions tell the other half of the story, awesome dance.
