Big respect for you, Alex. With me, your style is fantastic. You lost the game but you showed that you deserve the victory. Keep dancing and developing your style. Peace

Love Alex style. Highest Level And Waackiesha reapt her things all the time and all in all her style is nothing special as Alex style

its only a competition bruh. End of the day in a competition things are looked at differently then a cypher. People would be silly to say you are not hip hop (nobody said that tho). Leah just exposed your round and won the crowd and the judges decision over. The moment she yelled out "hip hop" while you were dancing, everyone was convinced you weren't doing it. Trash talk goes a long way in a battle. Either or could of won in my eyes though. I just UNDERSTAND WHY she won. I'm only defending that and telling ppl they gotta settle bout judges decisions. Its not the end of the world and it don't pay our bills. its nice to be free but still gotta keep fundamentals so that what you are doing is by definition hip hop. The dudes who pioneered the dance ain't gonna settle for less. Its like a spelling contest, you can say what u think it sounds like but if its not spelled the right way, its wrong. Life.

Shit happens bro

in a categorized battle you can easily lose if you are not doing the moves my man. I could be in a b boy battle but if i take more time doing kool stuff that isn't breaking and do a little breaking...i deserve to lose. He did not do enough hip hop at one point. Not about the steps but the feeling "groove" wasn't present. Which is a must in this dance. Get used to it dawg, if u can't understand that then u ain't gonna grow in dance.

DanielKeithMorrison and she didnt had any musicality nor creativity she was doin the same thing over and over again but alex had so much to offer musicality style versatility ... so disappointed when you see some great dancers lose like this .

dancelifeadd you are on the money. She repeated similar moves on similar sounds. Her groove appeared to be strictly to the drums. When there are so many sounds at play. Alex hit different grooves, different sounds, was creative in technique and levels. dancelifeadd you say "if you can't understand that then u ain't gonna grow in dance.' Ironically, you won't grow if you can't identify that all dance evolves. Hip hop is an evolutionary style, like all forms of dance. Those that take it in different directions, are those who, if good enough, grow and evolve dance forms.

DanielKeithMorrison naah don't talk to me like i'm outta here i'm Hip Hop and I know enough to come with my perspective on the problem and don't tell me that Alex had no groove he had just enough to do what he in fact did smoke that girl in that battle...

NRGyzer1 LOL you are not hip hop. KZfaq is not hip hop my man. I don't care to argue this anymore. If u are doing a categorized battle like hip hop especially in front of one of the pioneers of the dance. U gonna need to abide by the main ingredient to the dance. The groove. Alex is dope and Leah did her thing too but there was more to the battle then simply dancing. She was roasting on him while he danced "selling" herself as the better dancer. She caused the crowd to believe this. maybe in a cypher battle things might be different. In a contest however.... I understand how u feel though, he done change up his movement every round. I get it. I'm just pointing out the logic to why she won. S'why i think in a cypher he might have a better chance.

Agree, only Loose joint (judge for hip hop,) was judging the battle

WAACKIESHA's third entry very under level, alex's corporal language it another level

Never said he didn't, you assumed thats what I said. Her original style and groove kept with the tracks at a better pace. Alex had some good moments with his groove, but IMO Waackeisha was feeling it more. Respect to all :)
