It’s long been said that hip-hop is a global phenomenon, and here’s more proof: a short documentary on Nigerian B-Boy dancer Victor “Vikbone” Kalejaiye. The film, “Portrait of a Lagos B-Boy,” takes viewers to Lagos’ vibrant breakdancing scene as Kalejaiye struggles to make a name for himself as a dancer.
