One of the best bboys in the world right now…Definitely in my top 3. Just my opinion of course. Here is a clip of Cloud through out the years…This clip doesn’t do him justice, but I like the beginning how he’s doing head spins while holding the camera.
Here is Remind rockin CIVIL LA: WOOT!
This weekend we had a chance to sponsor one of the illest bboy battles of all time: KMEL vs REMIND. For those of you that don’t know, both these guys were the Michael Jordan’s of bboying during their era.
These are my thoughts on the battle between two of the illest bboys of all time. I felt like Kamel wasn’t there the entire battle, it seemed that he was trying to rock it through the first round, but he wasn’t feeling the music. Remind, on the other hand rocked the hell out of that beat and showed us why bboys want to be him.
However, I didn’t find anything wrong with the music, it was perfectly rockable. When you are one of the best, and bboys have looked up to you for the better part of a decade there is no excuse on why you can’t dance to the beat the best you can. Kamel told the DJ to cut the music after four rounds, I think both these masters of their art were trying to send a message to bboys: that true bboying takes place in a cypher and not in an exhibition. We don’t dance for money or fame but for ourselves. But this message came of more like Kamel didn’t want to dance.
Highlights from the clip :
1.)Remind rockin that 90 at 2:16 on the second version of the clip.
2.)Remind’s dancing (Overall)
3.) Kmel’s flip into footwork at the beginning of the battle.
This is going to be one of the hypest battles of all time. KMEL VS REMIND. Two bboy legends that have pushed us all to get better. Tomorrow.

Been looking through some head spin clips on you tube and came across this gem. I found a Free Style Session 10 clip with some guy doing incredible head spins. I was actually at this jam a few years back. Unfortunately I didn’t get to see this done is person…But geeez…I don’t know the dancer by name…but check out.. (2:08) The guy in dark blue. His first head spin is insane…and then he does another one that’s even better. This is just visually pleasing. Thank you! I probably re winded that part 5 times. The whole clip is dope…
Here is Moises from Tomorrows Bad Seeds rockin’ “We The People“. Tomorrows Bad seeds will be on this years ‘Warped Tour’. These guys are are loved by their fans and are growing faster every day. Much love to the bad seeds!Music..art ..and fashion.. Noi Le Persone!
