PHOENIX - The Harlem Shake has become so contagious online, a Valley company decided to give it a try.
Employees at MobiSquad , a company headquartered in Phoenix, posted their version on YouTube. It's a company that sets up businesses to accept mobile payments.
So what is the Harlem Shake? The YouTube videos all share the same music by electronic musician, Baauer, and a specific dancing style.
Normally, each video begins with one person, who’s often masked, dancing to the song surrounded by other people unaware. When the bass drops, the camera transitions and shows the entire crowd doing the dance wearing crazy costumes and holding odd props.
