InsideHoops.com: You're known around here as the founder of the Harlem Shake, which has spread far and wide. For starters, introduce yourself.
Al B: My name is Al B. That's all I can say for now. I'm from Harlem, and the Harlem Shake came from Al B. It's a drunken shake anyway, it's an alcoholic shake, but it's fantastic, everybody loves it and everybody appreciates it. And it's glowing with glory. And it's respected. But if we could mystify it, and become historian, about this Egyptian jazz...
InsideHoops.com: Okay...
Al B: Pharaohs invented this thing, with spears, and hats, and gowns. And so, it becomes a subject of being communicative to the system and to realization. If you get my drift.
InsideHoops.com: I feel you. Tell me more.
Al B: Well the Egyptians were very recycling and very prosperous. And all different types of subjects - tin, copper, gold, diamonds, sapphires, rubies.
InsideHoops.com: And as for the Harlem Shake, did you first do it here, with the music playing in between games?
Al B: Yes. It was a drunken dance, you know, from the mummies, in the tombs. That's what the mummies used to do. They was all wrapped up and taped up. So they couldn't really move, all they could do was shake (laughs).
InsideHoops.com: The mummies as they were lying down but trying to get back up...
Al B: Trying to get up, all they could do was shake.
