The original gatekeeping community of the ubiquitous culture of hip-hop has lost another one of its legendary pioneers during 2020’s final days.
According to Deadline News, breakdancing pioneer Adolfo “Shabba-Doo” Quinones passed away on Wednesday (December 30) per a public statement released by Toni Basil, Shabba-Doo’s fellow member of “The Original Lockers” hip-hop dance crew.
“It is with extreme sadness the Lockers family announces the unexpected passing of our beloved Adolfo Shabba-Doo Quinones. In this difficult time, we are requesting privacy,” Basil posted on his Twitter account on Wednesday morning.
Basil, Don Campbell (aka Campbellock), Fred Berry (aka Mr. Penguin), Bill Williams (aka Slim the Robot), Leo Williamson (aka Flukey Luke), and Shabba-Doo were all the first-string founding members of the Original Lockers (formerly The Lockers) who joined forces in 1973. This initial pioneering tandem remained together until 1976.
