"THE BONAFIDE BON 2"

MUCH LOVE AND RESPECT TO ALL MY TBB/TBG FAMILY.. ALLOW ME TO PROPERLY INTRODUCE MYSELF:... I GO BY THE NAME OF, "BON 2 TBB" AKA TBB JOE."THE BONAFIDE BON".( SOME NAME HUH? LOL).. I MET "BATCH"; FOUNDER OF "THE BRONX BOYS" IN 1977... AND AFTER A LONG CONVERSATION, WITH A FEW BACK AND FORTH QUESTIONS; BATCH BLESSED ME AS... "2nd DIVISION PRES"... OF "THE BRONX BOYS" IN THE EAST TREMONT SECTION OF THE BRONX... I STARTED OUT WITH JUST A FEW GOOD BROTHERS FROM THE HOOD... BROTHERS LIKE: SPEC 2, POE, PICK, VEK, MASH, J.P, TONE-4, MON-5, PRE, ASH, BOM-5 , SHAGGY AND FAT TRACK; JUST TO NAME A FEW...OUR MAIN HANG OUT WAS ON, "BRONX PARK SOUTH, IN HONEYWELL AVE" THERE; IS WHERE WE HAD OUR CLUB CALLED "THE SAND PIT" WE HUNG OUT ALL THOUGH OUT THE BRONX. ATTENED TO ANY AND ALL STREET JAMS THAT WE COULD FIND... WITHIN MONTHS OF THAT SAME YEAR; I HAD CLOSE TO ABOUT 80 TO 90 TBB MALE MEMBERS!!!... (NOTE: I NEVER DID BLESS FEMALES INTO TBG... THIS IS NOT TO TO SAY THAT I DIDN'T HAVE ANY TBG"s, BUT FOR THE SAFETY OF MY TBG"s FEMALE; I NEVER ALLOWED TBG"s TO ROCK SHIRTS REPRESENTING THE CREW; NOR, DID I ALLOW THEM TO LET ANYONE KNOW THAT THEY RAN WITH TBB..
REMEMBER, I COME FROM A DIFFERENT BREED OF TBB; " TBG EXHOTIC CAT" KNOWS THIS INFORMATION WELL, AND MY REASON FOR DOING THIS;.. IT WAS ALL FOR THE SAFETY OF MY TBG"s").. ANYWAY, BY THE SUMMER OF 1978 I HAD OVER A HUNDRED TBB MEMBERS!!! WE COVERED A 10 MILE RADIUS!!! AND WHERE MY DIVISION ENDED;.. BATCH"S DIVISION BEGAN!!!... IN MY OPINION; "TBB ROCKING CREW" IS "THE FIRST ROCKING CREW EVER TO HIT N.Y.C.!!! TBB, ALONG WITH "STAR CHILD LA ROCK" AND "ROCKWELL ASSOCIATION" HAS MADE THE HISTORY THAT WE HAVE TODAY... TBB, ALONG WITH FOUNDERS LIKE: D.J. KOOL HERC, GRAND MASTER CAZ, GRAND MASTER FLASH AND THE FURIOUS -5 IS THE REASON WHY B-BOY AND HIP-HOP EXIST TODAY!!!!. THE BRONX BOYS HISTORY HAS BEEN DEVELOPING SINCE 1975 AND IT HAD EVOLVED INTO SOMETHING I WOLD HAVE NEVER IMAGINED!!.. I THINK I COULD SPEAK FOR BATCH WHEN I SAY THIS; WE HONOR ,RESPECT AND PAY HOMAGE TO ALL OF YOU TBB/TBG MEMBERS FOR IT IS YOU WHO HAS KEPT OUR DREAMS ALIVE!! BOTH BATCH AND I ARE TRULY PROUD OF EACH AND EVERY ONE OF OUR TBB/TBG MEMBERS...YOU GUYS HAVE CONFIRMED TO BATCH AND MYSELF AS WELL AS ABY "THAT ALL OUR PAIN, STRUGGLES AND LOST OF LIVES; HAS NOT BEEN IN VAIN" SPECIAL THANKS TO MY BROTHER ABY HIS WIFE AND THERE GOOD CREW OF BROTHERS AND SISTER AROUND THEM
... FOR WITH OUT THEM, THEIR WOULD HAVE BEEN NO US TODAY!! I REALLY LOVE YOU GUYS!!! I AM, "THE BONAFIDE BON 2 TBB4LIFE" PEACE.
