Driven to prove that Hawaii has a thriving hip-hop community, Hype 5-0 is out to show there is more to Hawaii than swaying grass skirts and coconut bras. With limited funds for travel, Hype 5-0 has honed their skills by spending countless hours on the Internet studying crews from the mainland. Now after conquering the island dance scene with imported moves this hard-hitting crew is ready to export themselves to the mainland and take the ‘ABDC’ stage by storm.
Not many pro surfers cruise in Waipahu. First off, there’s no beach scene. Secondly, the once quaint, rural plantation town is now an urban sprawl. But there are still patches of Waipahu’s plantation roots and Ilikano accents. There is one such area 22-year-old Dustin Cuizon affectionately calls, “The Farm.” When the ‘Ewa Beach local isn’t traversing the globe surfing for scrip and ‘QS points, he’s at “The Farm” chilling with his uncle and boys. This isn’t the picturesque, Old McDonald kind of farm with the big red barn, tractor and long, green pastures. Negative.
