Jerk-The Dance

JERK'N

Dance
Various "Jerk Crews" create youtube videos to Jerk songs. Jerkin' is considered a street dance done on parking lots, curbs, sidewalks, or streets and community lots such as schools, malls, recreation centers, etc. The dance itself consists of moving your legs in and out called the "jerk", and doing other moves such as the Reject, the SpongeBob, the Dip, and the Drop.

Music
The rap group New Boyz wrote and recorded a hit in Los Angeles entitled "You're a Jerk"[3] and Audio Push made the song "Teach Me How To Jerk". The music is usually high tempo for rap music, around 90 - 100 bpm, very similar to the Hyphy style of the Bay Area. While Jerk Music does have a specific style, other hip-hop style music is often jerked to as well. Most jerkin' music is spread through the internet, rather than radio and television play.
