There is no definition to the word Twerk in Webster’s Dictionary, but if you check the internet the word Twerk means “to work one's body, as in dancing. You have probably heard the phrase “She was twerking it on the dance floor.” Well allow me to introduce you to Twerk Team, an Atlanta based dance group that was formed in 2005. The two members and sisters (Mizz TwerkSum and Lady Luscious) went from dancing in their living rooms to performing there dance routines at local house parties. With their names buzzing in the high schools and local house parties from the well cerographed steps and sexy moves, they decided to take it to the internet. They started posting YouTube videos of themselves dancing to their favorite Hip Hop songs. They noticed there friend request and views for their videos growing rapidly. Twerk Team's first Hit video was “She Got aDonk” by Soulja Boy, it received over a million views in the first week. The attention from that video lead to receiving show request and being featured in many major music videos such as “Drop It Low” by Ester Dean ft. Chris Brown, “Twerk Dat” by 3-6 Mafia just to name a few. With the videos that followed, they even caught the attention and had the opportunity to work with Grammy Award Winning Producer Polo Da Don. While continuing to do shows, the girls have not lost track of what is important and instilled in them by their mom and management team.
While their love of dancing will never die, they have also found a new love in recording music. Mizz Twerksum, “hip hop has always been a part of our lives and we’ve always secretly wrote rhymes to certain tracks that we liked”. Lady Luscious, “with our dancing, we’ve learned to be one with the music and that’s the same thing with us recording, we’ve learned to “ride the beat”, as Double E always says.” 2011 has been coined “Girl Power” by the Twerk Team. We are coming with the support of our ladies! Lady Luscious “we working with several female artist and even female producers”. With the 1st single to drop called “Club Down", Twerk Team looks to make their entrance into the music world in a BIG way.
