Twerk

Twerking was actually originally started in New Orleans. Bass music came to Atlanta from Florida. Everything is a reenactment once it's been done before. What we did is we took the word "Twerk," which was a New Orleans word meaning, if you were going to "twerk something" you were going to bust a move or if you were going to see the girls "twerk," it means they were dancing in the club. What we did was take the word to the forefront.

This definition is quoted by the Ying Yang Twins who started the word in their song "Whistle While You Twurk"

Whistle While You twerk.
