Major Daggering Video
I have to admit that the first time that I saw this style of dance was from my boy Killah Beast (Harlem!) , who labeled it “Jamacians Going Crazy! (unofficial name)”. Major Lazer has brought, “Daggering (official name)” back to my attention with its animated infused wildness.
Artist: Major Lazer
Song: Pon De Floor
Album: Guns Don’t Kill People…Lazers DoStraight from Skerrit Bwoy (main blonde mohawk guy):
CAUTION: do not try this at home, or in a club, you most likely will get hurt. but this is the new way to dance to reggae music. its called “DAGGERING” and will be premiered to the world by director Eric Wareheim, for the Major Lazer project by Diplo & switch. Look out… it just might be coming to a town near you.
