TMC WHAAAT!
Wassup Wassup everybody!! Just wanted to drop a note about my travels to the World Hip Hop Champs in Los Angeles this weekend. And I’m competing!! Man am I getting nervous.
Our crew, the TMC Hip Hop Crew, is representing NZ on the world stage against something like 35 other countries. We placed a close second in the NZ champs behind Dziah, an Auckland crew who placed second in the world last year!! Also joining the NZ contingent is Triple 8 Funk (they’re from Auckland too) so NZ is going for a strong showing of skillz to the rest of the world.
Our routines are based around Choreography and Performance. Many styles of hip hop have to be displayed to score maximum points; Oldskool, Popping and Krump all feature prominently. And, of course, any kind of acrobatics is promoted - all of this in a two minute set turns out to be damn hard!! Think along the lines of a BODYATTACK™ warm-up.
Anyway peeps, wish us luck and check out Youtube as I’m sure all the routines will be posted by the time we leave the stage!
Big ups to Les Mills and all our supporters for their help in getting us there.
Geezy
