Yahoozy is the latest dancestep everywhere in clubs,parties,shows and even in church.Various nigerian artistes have sung about it and danced it in their videos. But where did it come from? Who started it?Did it start from Nigeria? Who named the dancestep ?

Did Dbanj start it? Or was it sean paul? Because I've seen Sean Paul dance something like that in one of his videos. But who even named the dance-step, Was it olu-maintain?

Dear nairalanders,What do you know and what do you think about this dance?

Yahoozy originated from Lagos Island years ago.
It was originally called Sebe- just dancing like a mad man, then saouz and when yahooboys took over, it became yahoozy probably because the lagos island yahooboys throw parties alot and the reigning steps then was saouz or saouzy.
It was coined yahoozy by yahoo boys.

Dbanj is not even a good yahoozy dancer. He's just learning. Olu Maintain had nothing to do wit it either. The best yahoozee dancers are in OSU.
Sean paul's Step is way different from yahoozy even though the mixture is very beautiful. You need to see girls dance sean paul+yahoozy, you'll be tripped.

I dance yahoozy beautifully. There are different styles:-
'steppers' where u interchange steps in quick succession
'feelin cool' where you have both hands in your pocket
'komole' where your hands picks from under your legs up and round your neck.
'too much money' where you pick and spray 'virtual' dollars from your pockets with both hands.
'sean paul stylee' where you mix it wit sean paul's
'burning' where you fan your self  with your hands like the room is too hot.
'Cruizing' where you'll have ur left hand on a virtual steering and the other changing gears like you are driving.

Several styles,  Its come to stay
yahooo oh oh yahoooooozzzeeee

Whao! Thanks for the info Layi!! How did you get to know all this? R u from Lagos Island? But the dancestep does not look like a mad man's dance step.I wonder y they called it that.But I think D-banj made the dancestep popular.

I love to dance a lot o. But men! You must really be a yahoozy expert.Right nowI'm imagining all the yahoozy styles you described here.The one I dont get is the steppers.Did you name all these yahoozy variations? there is one yahoozy style they call togi-togi,I'm sure you'll know that one too.And how do you know the best yahoo dancers are in OSU?
