  • damn, you know some jams are erious atleast the folks that attend the jams are, there be some little ass kids at this jam im guessinn. running around and shit.plus the dude in blue look like he got more funk in him than pj??

  • and the winner is... (drumroll).......... the guy in the back. all everybody sayn is he stole the show. ill speak for him. dude if you ever see this page, you gettn mad hated on, your like the lil wayne of poppin and nobody even know you hahahahaha for reals

  • @forgotaboutbre- perhaps, just maybe he think that john has been repetitive? he has been boring the scene out for a while. dude in the back, so the fuck what, if i felt like poppin i would pop too. just like the other guy in the black suit. so why do people bring so much attention to the "DUDE IN THE BACK" ? he's not as good as poppin john so why the hate? damn. no doubt tho, props. take it or leave it

  • That was the smoothest side glide I have ever seen in my life....OMG

  • @B1u3Dr4g0n1 MJ...aint got shit on him with that....lol

  • those 4 guys at the left ( including the clown that dancing ) = DALTONS but more dumb. Especially the right guy with black costume is like Scarface dwarf

  • kill the asshole in the back

  • esta bien perro

  • YO WHO IS THE JACKASS IN DA BAK DOES HE WANT TO BATTLE OR WAT

  • Hahaha during the third set that kid on the right side can't figure out who he wants to watch

  • Those kids in the background were crackin me up

  • hey avry body can any one tell waht kiend of music is this beacuse is asome dance on this music ?? please hellpe me

  • hows dont know salah just write (salah and damon popping old school! ) and anjoy with the best and he is the waiht guy with a het

  • @krosake dude that is john's flavor, oh and it freakin looks like john too! salah is a killer dancer, but he has his own flavor, and this is not it! and i hope you don't live any where, where english is the primary language, cause you suck at using it!

  • @charlietow i think he is trying to say that salah is the best and to enjoy watching a video that u can find by typing salah and damon popping oldschool. if i remember that battle it was vs bionic man and jsmooth. it was a pretty sick battle but none of the footage is as close or as clean as this video. also that battle was ooooold, all these guys have advanced a lot since then. (it was a sick battle tho, a good match up)

  • @tropsmoo i don't know he said this is 100% salah... i don't know what he/she is tryin to say... i've seen them vids, i agree dope for sure!

  • nonono nooooooooo if you all see salah dance you will change and saye salah is the beset and he is funnier

  • @krosake I hve and I disagree... John is my 1st choice.

    Salah too loose

  • @krosake Hah... hahahaha!! What makes you think I said what I have said if I HAVENT SEEN Salah? True he is funny but technically a nono compared to quite afew and of em is Poppin John. Yes Salah is damn good technically but not as good as some. I am a huge fan of salah but I still have to admit Poppin John is better technically

  • this is salah 100% not john and salah is better than jhon

    and hows says like me fot me

  • @krosake You wrote it 3 times - Having doubts? I encourage you to watch the 10 minutes footage of Poppin John in Venice - I've never seen any video from Salah that could come close to a serious and complete display of technique and precision like this - No use to mention his shows or tricks on TV that amuse or impress people, that is certainly not the purpose of Poppin John - Different tastes = different result ...

  • this is salah 100% not john and salah is better than jhon

    and hows says like me fot me

  • @krosake Haiz.... Poppin John you have to admit is unbeatable many technical aspects of popping and probably one of the best, if not the best technical popppers there are today. Salah on the other hand is probably the best in entertaining and crowd pleasing. Hes very good with his techniques however not on par with poppin john. Both however overall are as good as each other but they are better in different aspects one for technicality and the other for performance

  • @SharinganHatake i dont think this krosake guy is getting it. it really comes down to who's on home turf and what style the judges prefer if they battle. (home turf adv being the judges and crowd will be all up on their own popper) poppin john is ridiculously technical tho, really high lvl stuff, but i guess u can say salah is at that same lvl at entertaining and giving the crowd eyecandy.

  • @tropsmoo Yep both are equal overall but better than each other at different aspects.... apparently I dont see how its too difficult to understand XD but oh wellz hmmm I wonder how many tie-breaker rounds there would be with salah and poppin john if they ever battle lol

  • this is salah 100% not john and salah is better than jhon

  • ROFL @ the babies in the middle at 0:40-0:50

  • The footwork at 2:35 is unbelievable! Love the whole thing!

  • @TheSnookyputz Is name is Crazy legs! ;)

  • Damnnnn!! ! Can't get enough of this!!

    Can anyone give me a track listing for the jams being played??

    With Peace and Love2tha9s-

    SN

  • @rsarchie- If you hit the "show more" button underneath the video it has all of the tracks in this video listed for you. I hope that helps! =)

  • È o cara dança pra caramba

  • du du du du du du du duu du du duubum bum bum bum bum, dadabumbumbumbumbum 'Whaow'

  • 7 people got shocked by his electronic wave surges in his body lol.

  • Amazing!

  • The dude popping in the background is actually GOOD AS!

  • @TheBladeozan

    boring ? ananın pornosu boring ozan

    görende popping in p sini bilion sanacak oç

  • thats deadly :L

  • as borat would say, "Very niice!"

  • To me he seems a very accomplished popper. Very clean and dope PJ.

  • Haha look in the background at 0:44 - 0:48, the little kid, haha

  • i luv america for this type of stuff you tried to do this lot in britain you will be branded as a hooligan somebody will tell you to go on britains got talent and stop messing around. i don't want fame i just want to dance

  • the best poppin john video ive seen. that was some old school elite shit

  • amazing...

  • Im assuming the guy the guy u were goin against was way outta ur league. Like if the yankkes played a high school cheerleeding squad at yankee stadium.

  • this is fucking dope, this is real poppin, not so fast. slow down and chill style. amazing... 3:48 to 3:56 the best part .. i love this.. this move wit new era.

  • Damn I cant wait for this stuff he'll release in 2010

  • A robot dancing as a less able robot dancing very amusing.

  • damn. i love how no one there is judging and if they all lose except PJ they don't bitch and moan. dance is so sick, can't wait to go to the grocery store next haha.

  • Love the music by good old Rodger Troutman -Brings me back to the early 80's

  • r u fucking kidding me - go son!!

  • dude popping in the background at 2:37... stop...

  • @fgonz007 he's gettin pumped.... don't hate

  • @fgonz007

    yeah...i was that mexican that was looking at him the whole time telling him to stop.

  • @bobbiety If it is you, you should have focused on the battle instead of looking for trouble - Happily nobody listens to bully guys

  • why is poppin john so good

  • @Frostwire120 because he understands foundation

  • what's the song at 1:10?

  • @NightzKidz its all in the description :)

  • Nobody iz gunna ohhs n ahhs on a homeboy. He iz a great inspiration 2 peeps in el paso. He knws wat givin bak iz. Ma hmeboy manny gets it too. Errbody there knw waz respect wen poppin john steps onto da flo. Mad props Poppin John

  • 4:12-4:19 was dope.  props

  • those chest pops are harder than admantium

  • @ scientistn1 - i think youre absolutely right. johns moves get cleaner every time, but theyre still the same moves.

    i dont have any room to talk, but i think popping is the same as playing an instrument. the difference between a good drummer & a great drummer is someone who can hold a different beat with each hand and foot, and still make it flow together.

    hope that made sense to someone. nothin but love for ya John.

  • i really enjoyed that

  • still don't understand how animation poppers are soooo technical with hits and waves.

  • My only criticism of popping John is that he is not diverse enough in his funkstyle dance in terms of being able to incorporate the styles that show more movement and transitions and even funk like the boogallo style and the popping style which for instance sugarpop has perfected. To me popping john doesn't move enough, he is a bit static which incredibly suits his style of popping but if he without a doubt will be the best he needs to incorporate more complex movements to add to his style.

  • @scientistn1

    Your wrong the style Poppin John has accomplished is alot harder than the funk style.........Poppin John has deliberately distinguished himself from eliminating Boogaloo from his dace repitoire because he doesnt like it (and probably doesnt wanna look like the thousands of other dancers tht do tht style) If you look at his earlier vids like 2006 early 2007 he incorporated alot of floor movements transitions and boogaloo!!! Personally i think the boogaloo style is easier to learn!!!

  • Sickest hits I have ever seen in my life, next to legend's hits, and waves, incredible, control perfect, boting and isolations breathtaking but why is it when popping John dances even here he doesn't seem to get to many ohhs and ahhs and noise from the crowd even though he is doing some almost freakish, out of this world controlled movements, or is it that he is so serious that this is the energy he transfers to the crowd?

  • I took longer watching this cause that idiot in the background kept making me curious to what he was doing so I had to pull the vid back.

    Other than that this is some sick poppin!

  • @FlipGraham LOL same thing with me

  • 3:40 is so damn freaky!

  • Damn wes jhon steve dave lol,you keep getting better and better. peace

  • @lillatinflip0090 its lik sayn mike j iz da best u cant compare LOCKERS 2 POPPERS .different styles,but same,its on da indvidual!kobe diff. style but cn do it,lebron 1 of da up n cummers but def. cant b touched!now my boy AMARE "PHX" represent!Isda 1 2 beat 4 now!

  • kingfish please john would burn him out idk wat yur seeing mrking39 but u r blind dawg

  • song at 2:19 ??

  • @HarryLiddle Dj Mulder - Poppin Shaker

  • Neither John nor Salah can pop with "KINGFISH"

  • @MasterGunner

    You obviously don't know what you are talking about, lol. Your ignorance is pretty clear. Anybody with knowledge of popping, would tell you that John is much better than Salah. Salah's just an entertainer/battler. Yes, he's a good popper, and a great dancer, but he's nowhere near as good as John is, at Popping. It's just that simple.

  • @xCrookedSpiralx PLz dude i know hell off alot about popping. Poppin john has a exceptionnal body control but thats all. Salah is a beast he has mad tricks and has alot more experience and variety. oh yea and just so you know tricks are also part of popping.

  • @Warkid1992

    Oh look...another jealous popper that's ass hurt because he is too much of a pussy to post a you tube video and have people tell him he's the shit instead of PoppinJohn. until i see a vid of someone better...Poppin John OWNS

  • smh u like to talk shit on the internet huh ?? lool keep it up ur doing a good job .... if ur not saying dis face to face dont reply

  • @Warkid1992

    I'm kinda confused about what your saying because you cant spell for shit....are you a Internet Crip or Blood?...I don't wanna bring the wrong colors to the Youtube page...thug life!

  • Last comment on yer vids John.

    From the 1:13 point on this vid...Is probably the BEST footage of Popping ever shot!..

    John,you are too good a dancer to "dis" other dancers. Let them do that stuff.

    Lastly...Thank you to John for showing us his amazing talent in the ART of Popping.

    You sir,are the best Popper there is.

    Pete.

  • i no alot of ppl dat can kill dis nigga but he good

  • No arguement there Warkid, but it`s like I always say...

    There are people out there who could EASILY beat the best UFC fighters, but they are`nt in the competition!

    IF there are better poppers out there,ask them for a vid.

    If someone is better than John,I will be the first to admit & re-cant my previous comment.

  • @Warkid1992

    No, you don't. If you really would have, you would of course have provided some evidence.

  • soulbotic

  • This guy is the best popper I've seen. Clearly better than Salah.

  • 2:43 - 2:52

  • 2:43 is great. this dude is the best poppin guy i ever seen.

  • 2:36 peep the dude in the back tryna steal the show... lol gtfo John will OWN you!!!

  • @billeebo

    seriously he would totally smash on that guy haha

  • @billeebo

    I really doubt he was trying to steal the show, fuckin' tard. He was dancing, because he can feel the music. Just like John. Ignorant fool.

  • @xCrookedSpiralx ... The dude in the back dancing is a fag, jus like you, ig'nant foo! DERP!!!

  • @billeebo HOW CAN GUY STEAL SHO ONLY 1 WATCHIN IZ VATO ON RT N OBVIUSLY ALL I'S ON JOHN QUE NO?

  • @lorainbo

    The English Language- Learn it, love it, or leave it the fuck alone.

  • @billeebo you dont speak slang fool?love the language,i does it all, but 1 thing about my english even though i b mexican like your mom, the harder you hit, the better the english!QUE NO!

  • second song?

  • Keep these vids comin cause u r off the chain!!

  • PoppinJohn is dope and the guy in the background left side @ 2:36 looks like he can get down too!

  • he should be watching the master at work

  • I agree

  • wow who is the poor fuck hes battiling cause i know he was battling someone... yup that dumbass is probably dead!!!LMFAO

  • somebody has to battle him, he aint unbeatable

  • @M10J10G10 thanks alot man, appreciate it.

  • the songs used plz???

  • poppin john vs madd chadd, that would be a sick battle

  • hellll yea

  • The song is : dj mulder poppin shaker

  • man he is 1 of my new inspirations, just when i thought i was good, its still stuff i have to learn

  • wat is the song at 2:24

  • lol, i like that dude poppin in the background. you can always tell when a popper is passionate. they do what that guy was doin, lol. just poppin for the fuck of it. i do that all the time. especially when i go grocery shoppin. those floors are perfect for gliding, haha. xD

  • i honestly think that poppin john would reign supreme over pacman

  • ohh yesss, no "thinking" involved.

  • Agreed. I think pacman will get murdered. Though I do think both are dope poppers, Popping John is a beast among beasts.

  • OUCH!!!!! beasty

    would love to see him and pacman in a battle..........it would be a legendary one

    :))

  • song?? at 2:24??

  • Dj Mulder - Poppin Shaker

  • looked like the guy in the back wanted some attention lol

  • destroyed.

  • dope

  • Boy and I thought Michael Jackson was good... this guy is unbelievable. A little less hand motions and more full body turns and he would have people going nuts. Awesome!

  • poppin john, ur skills are sick man, I hope that one day I can dance like that ... cool dude !!

  • 2:30 is indeed awesome !

  • Yeah and what about 4:20. What is this type of dancing called? I have never seen it before.

  • he was just gliding lol

  • Beasty as fuck.

  • Quite a few of john's moves are liquid moves.. I wonder if he started with liquid then moved to popping (as many liquiders do)..

  • Comment removed

  • Wow , at 2:30 *_*

    5*

  • whoa youur good what song is this

  • what song is this

  • BEAST

  • man this dude so sick, hes making me feel like im going to vomit

  • gotta see Poppin John and Boogie Frantick go at it.

  • shit bro..i would too

  • poppin john kinda of does have tha kind of g-style feel to him. If he was in the group I would not object lol. that would be my favorite battle of all time if those two went at it. like some goku v.s vegeta type stuff lol

  • Good answer!! I agree with you except I think it's kind of tough to teach the ability to feel the music and become one with it. You know...to HIT on the beats. Thanks!

  • u cn be taught how to hit....its up to u on hw u want to hit the beat....there are multiple ways to hit a beat u jus hav to figure out where and when u want to hit it...there are multiple beats in a single music track and not jus the beats bt diff sounds as well that u can manipulate wit hits or waves or w/e u like to do

  • u seem to know what your talkin about, do have any excersises or tips on how to improve. i can wave and glide tut, but for some reason i just can't pop like i'd like to. i can't even do the fresno right. any suggestions?

  • Well to put it simply hittin is the tensing and relaxing of ur muscles...fresno is the most basic way to prac ur hittin....it jus takes constant repetition and prac to get ur hits rt....try flexin ur arms to a certain kind of beat and jus "hit"....prac in a mirror and see hw ur body moves and make the hits sharper and harder...constant prac bro

  • yeah. i mean i can hit but just not smooth. also sometimes i try to hit to a beat but for some reason i keep hitting like a second before i should. i guess your right then practice is the key. thanks homie

  • That kid all the way on the right at 2:00 is just shaking his head like "Motherfucker this kid hits everything!" Poppin John has mad hits and they are hard as fuck!

  • What the name of the songs

  • the very first one is FUNKY BEEPOP by VinZee, the one after it is a song by Herbie Hancock...and the last one is GOIN BACK TO CALI by Notorious B.I.G.

  • the Herbie Hancock song is called READY OR NOT

  • hahaha 2:32 is funny dude on the right haha wow

  • amazing

  • cmon that glide was fucking SICK at the end holy shit

  • too dope. just too dope.

  • DAMN!! One question though. I need a professional's answer. Can a person really be taught to be this good or does it mostly just come natural? The best poppers I know were always very good dancers. Just curious.

  • listen to alot of music and appreciate it.

    be patient when you dance and have fun.

    you dont want to be THIS good.

    you want to be the best you can possibly be.

    humans are limitless, understand and you'll realise your potential

  • its mostly natural but u have to train alot to reach your potential

  • haha everything takes practice homie. He's juss dedicated and hard working

  • Everyone can be taught poppin but the people who turn out to be great are those who practice well enough to realise their own style! Poppin John is one of those guys but some stuff probably does come naturual!

  • This is a sick ass vid. i've seen it hundreds of times & its crazy!

  • poppin shaker-dj mulder

  • that not foot work idot he was jus heating the beat with his feet

  • What the song at 2:20 pleasee

  • His footwork at 2:36 hOLY SHIT :O

  • were dum ass i didnt see no footwork

  • U don't  see his feet going crazy.

  • Dayum PJ's isolation is just fuckin insane, his chest pops is clean as fuk, goddamn his style overall is CRAZY man mad props. Although cant hardly compare this dude to salah because their styles are broadly different. Not to mention Salah's major flexibility advantage.

  • youre sick!!!!! i wish i can pop like you.

  • poppin' jon is sick! he has mad imagination. soul biotics rock on!

  • People these days are forgetting to combine rhythm and musicality, but poppin john combines them beautifully.

  • i agree. All the poppers you named are very good especially slim boogie and frantick. Those two cats are amazing. Popping John is good but he ain't the best. There's no such thing as The Best Popper. There's always someone better.
