Couple things to note; it does not mention how the competition will be judged, which is the most concerning part of the whole situation. Other important factors that I’m sure will come into play are, will Dj’s be able to play any music they want, and are competitors tested for PED or marijuana for that matter. We will updated as more information becomes available, and if you’d like to discuss, visit the forums HERE.

DeGuzman Does Bust-a-Groove

Me and the brothers used to play this game when we were kids. I guess I never realized how much influence it had on me until now. Used to wanna break like Heat, not knowing how sick the style was until watching it now, years later. If I had to bet, I would say they might have hired Kenny to be the dancer for that section. Oh, and the locking is super solid as well. Props to Jay DeGuzman for putting in the work to re-interpret.
