Beyond Cyphers: Cros One’s Dance Legacy & Business Brilliance

Freestyle Session is coming back to Los Angeles on the weekend of November 11 and 12th and I have the honor of having its founder, Cros One on this episode. I was inspired to hear more about how he’s built his various businesses and being transparent about the work. If you are in the greater Los Angeles area, I highly recommend attending. Spectacular movers, feel-good music, unique vendors, it’s an experience with lots of great energy and community. Cros One is the visionary founder of Freestyle Session Worldwide, the longest-running breaking and hip-hop event, a true pioneer who has dedicated his life to preserving and advancing the art of breaking and hip hop culture. But that's not all— Cros1 is a multi-faceted entrepreneur with a portfolio of business ventures that span across the realms of music, entertainment, and beyond. From event production to clothing lines, Cros1's influence can be felt far and wide.
