pop and lock and drop it?
I have a new favourite dance crew! Well not my all time favourite, just one more to add to the favourites list along with Jabbawockeez and Kaba Modern (both from S1 of America's Best Dance Crew [ABDC] ).
BEAT FREAKS!
A bunch of ladies who can really pop and lock really well. This performance was probably the best in the whole season for me, watch 1:05 for some sick ticking. My favourite part!
Their locking from 1:25 onwards is really clean and nice to watch too. Loved it totally!
Of course, there was the 'magic' element (the levitating ball! how they do?!)
It's a pity that they didn't win eventually (they got runner-up), but i have to admit that QuestCrew (the champs) are pretty damn good too. (their air flares.. flares on elbows.. wth!) And the final 'make or break' performance i thought Beat Freaks didn't do as good as QuestCrew too.
Anyway, here are a few more of my favourite performances of theirs:
This was just sooo sick. I actually like this one as much as the first one, maybe abit more as a whole performance, just that the 'can you tick tick tick tick' part in the 1st video totally trumps everything so it made me prefer it abit more.
Anyway this video has sick isolation (first 20seconds of video) and probably the top 3 best headspins in the history of ABDC (jabbawockeez did an uber long headspin in their season too, 2nd last performance i think) .
In case you missed out something subtle she did during the headspin, watch it again (0:57 - 1:25... wow a 30 second headspin?! ) .... the amazing part is at 1:03 (you probably have to pause it or watch slow mo or something) .. she actually takes out her shades and PUTS THEM ON MID HEADSPIN.
HOW FREAKING SICK IS THAT!!
Them dancing to Womanizer!
For some context why this was SO good, it's because they like have this punk rock chick persona, so 'sexy' dancing isn't really normal for them. And they don't like show skin normally,etc. So when they nailed this dance so well.. gasp.
Ah, ABDC is awesome. wtb more seasons.
Can you tick tick tick tick tick tick pop, lock and drop it?
