Thanks for the love everyone! Im glad i was able to share it with yall. I invested 4,000 dollars in camera gear (so far) to try and give the quality of video these peoples skills really deserve. That money aint ever comin back lol... but its totally worth it =)
I just keep coming back to this. Andres details, the angles, the heart, the creativity, the space, the story telling... Incredible, infectious, inspiring, joyful. The whole thing was great, both of them are fantastic, but Andre is on another level and this is my favorite footage of him. Thx for sharing
It only takes a little competition to bring out the shit Dre never shows people. He’s also a master at watching what you do and mimicking it but with BETTER PRECISION. If I had a dollar for every time I’ve watched Dre smoke someone like this in pure precision and creativity I’d have about 8 dollars lol. Gizmo is dope too no doubt. It’s just the level of Dre’s dimes and his timing and patience. He’s truly a master. Nobody can beat him at his game.
Gizmo is highly highly skilled and according to someone (I forget who), he's leveled up a lot in his recent years (Boppin Dre said that as I recall), but his moves are abstract, i.e. they don't make literal sense. But they flow. And they have excellent technique. Just an observation. Much respect to the guy, super high level.
the first clip is from a battle with my brotha MT Pop in Vietnam i did 6 years ago. The second is Jack of All Trades 2019.... J.O.A.T... an event in Montreal thrown by Monsta Pop... a battle round with my brotha Stackz...
The problem with Popping as a Culture, and a general criticism, is that is struggles for innovation it's instrumentals. It is the same beats year after year, it would breathe life into the Culture if it could at least attempt the artistry that J Dilla brought to the culture of Hip Hop. It just seems like an aspect of the dance, that is ignored and undeveloped. Maybe I am biased, but of most of the tracks are really repetitive, and lack the nuances of other Electric musical forms.
I agree the problem is majority of poppers are afraid to dance out they're comfort zone we jrock showed us this when he lost to fikshun when they played other songs put side of popping jock could not dance to it play e40 tell me when to go in see how well these poppers dance to it matter of fact see if they can step away from the technical aspect of it and just dance and boogie with without hitting and tutting

Damn that's super awesome! It's dope to see Andre real skills, he is showing more stuff than he does usually on showcases etc. Thanks for that!

Truly Magical, man. The backdrop of this battle reminds me of those 90’s, 2D fighting games!
Thanks for sharing this man. I know that cameras will never do justice to dancers but the quality is still amazing. Andres first round is bonkers lol

I actually like to perform too Up to date Music, give me the hottest song out and watch what I do. I match beats.
Nice
