Call it hype, call it gyrating, some people even call it gingering, the bottom line is that club, show, concert, event of yours is not complete without someone to
keep the crowds energy level 100%. Some hype men are versatile and do other stuff like; hosting events, organising dj battles, Mc's at rap battles, video jockey etc.
But, primarily the main objective of a hype man is to prepare the audiences energy level and keep it high through out a performance or event.
