"The Crutchmaster" featured in RJD2's new video "Work It Out" - DOPE!!


Dope producer RJD2 teams up with Bill Shannon for the video for "Work It Out." Crazy thing is, Bill, featured in the video, was born with a degenerative hip condition that forced him to live on crutches. So what does Bill do? "The CrutchMaster" creates an entirely new art form that combines Bill's invented a unique technique for dancing on crutches—the Shannon Technique—that derives from his extensive experience in their use as a mobility aid, skateboards and the urban landscapes of New York. "In my choreography, I aim to merge the Shannon Technique with freestyle street dancing, skateboarding and silent film poetics," he explains.
