  • The users here have raised very interesting points. ABDC is not a full out dance competition, it is a hyrbid between an entertainment show (whose prime objective is to get high ratings) , and sometimes in the quest for high ratings (via entering gimmicky crews) the art of Hip Hop dancing suffers. To be honest i can count on one hand the number of ABDC crews that i think would do well in competitions off the show

  • @mdub2000 don't worry about those idiots.. probably some 10, 11, 12 year-old kid that never seen anybody even do a hand stand before...

  • Cowboy Bebop - Tank

    

  • ABDC is a commercial vehicle pushing a commercial product. that is all, end of story. head hunters is a REAL crew. not a commercial freak show. headhunters rep in the hiphop scene and crews like jaba have no presence in hiphop culture what so ever. personally i would rather see HH battling at a jam or killing beats in a cypher. but they killed this shit anyway. all us hiphop heads have to turn a blind eye to all the people that know nothing other than what TV feeds them, aka target consumers.

  • @UrNotHipHop While I agree that ABDC just promotes the gimmicks, to say Jabba has no presence in hip-hop just ain't right. They're members been around in the hip-hop dance scene for a long time before Jabbas ever formed. Their members include guys from Boogie Monstaz, Full Force, Killafornia, Super Galactic Beat Manipulators. There were well known in the West Coast hip-hop world for years before ABDC was even a concept for a show.

  • @mylestate i like how that is all in the past tense. used to be, before, long time ago. point is they still have the hiphop label when they are main steam sell outs. they only have 3 real bboys in that crew. its not about before,long time ago, or used to. i will say it again because ur comment did not change a thing. THEY HAVE NO PRESENTS NOR INFLUENCE IN THE HIPHOP COMMUNITY. if jabba was at all hiphop they would enter in a jam. they would get laughed at and me both know this. cheerleaders.

  • @UrNotHipHop What are you talking about? Their members still rep Full Force & Killafornia, which are 2 crews that do more international competitions than Head Hunters (no disrespect to HH). And all of their members still rep those crews. And bboys aren't the only dancers associated with hip-hop, son. I like how you talk shit, but fail to realize that JWZ have been invited and performed at multiple b-boy jams even AFTER abdc. So is Ken Swift not hip-hop anymore because he doesn't compete in jams?

  • @UrNotHipHop I have to agree with mylestate, Jabbawockeez might be a commercial crew famous because of ABDC , but they are one of the few commercial crews with real talent. Thier massive success after ABDC proved that they are more than just a gimmick, and on a personal note (as a bit of a hip hop head) i think they have helped expand the frontiers of Hip Hop dancing with thier unique style,they are right up there with the likes of Micheal Jackson, Tight Eyez, and Rock Steady Crew in my opinion.

  • i gotta say those were siiicccck moves but not right for ABDC. BOTY maybe

  • They're from SJ

  • AWESOME!!! they showcased they were masters of the oldschool styles, Im curious about their mastery in the new school steps such as iso's. However, they stand Strong with their bboy and lock skillz, its Mad crazy and Clean Cut!

  • hahahahahahhahaaa COYBOY BEBOP LOL. THEY SHOULD MAKE  IT TO THE FIRST AUDITION SHOW JUST BECAUSE OF THAT LOL.

  • ohh some very old krump muusic

  • makes me want to watch cowboy bebop because of the song

  • why oh why did they use "glory to god"

  • eheh

  • HEADHUNTERS CREW vs ,KNUCKLEHEAD ZOO,both crews are good and both deserv to be on season 5

  • knuckle head zoo is pretty much super cr3w. some of the same members

  • ABDC is ova rated, stick to the streets were u get real respect instead of being a sell out.

  • we all know its all about Battle of the year, K B-Boy world masters, and other big crew battle events

  • @xuxstreets see we speak truth ABDC is over rated, cuz I kno Rocko from boxcuttuhz my friends cuzin is Tony from Kaba Modern they both said when ur on ADBC ur basically in prison cuz u on lock down cant leave the hotel can go outside of the studio during practice. Everything is rigged ok guys trust me its all bout underground competitions.

  • man ABDC is basicaly dance suicide because its basicaly best stunts win even if its off beat

  • @xuxstreets exactly BOTY, Body Rock, etc, etc. all are better than ABDC

  • @Trukillaog True. ABDC, sytycd, etc. is all for the TV ratings. Underground events are much better. Only reason crews go for these dance shows is for that 100K, sponsorship, etc.

  • @D1G1TALRAMPAG3 very understand able though u kno for the money and sponsorship also the tv spot u kno. I mean Hok, KM, and other crews was ask to be part of the Movie Boogietown

  • nice bebop music but I don't think they mad it to season 3

  • nice!!

  • Ten trillion points for picking Tank.

  • i love the choreo.....O wait........

  • Tank for the win

  • they need better music

  • not good QUEST CREW!!!!!!!!

  • they arnt that good....

    seen better

  • Same goes for many, pretty much all the crews on the seasons of ABDC, I've seen better.

  • Naytron alone is a pretty sick bboy.

  • reasons they didnt make it to abdc if ur asking 1:to many solo parts 2:missing alot of choreography 3:they werent in sync and 4:i would never use that kinda music for something like that x.x

  • I really think they need a female or 2 cause you can tell by the crappy choreography that its an all dude group.... they just arent creative enough....

  • gender doesnt matter

  • ... only women can choreo? Have you ever heard of Jabba? lol

  • @13FatalHearts so quest, jabba, poreotics, FORMALity, super cr3w, sexy boy special, and kinjaz didn't have creative choreography? GTFO!

  • @PoppinJohnC i know that you may not agree but i wasnt really impressed with this video. i think that when you get too many males together it hurts the dance but a male on his own can make a perfectly great dance. its like the effect of testosterone(sp?) damages the choreography

  • @PoppinJohnC i am a guy btw. speaking of personal experience

  • Comment removed

  • Yeah, like ONE less, because there was no audition special.

  • they were very good =D but to many stuff going on at once

  • I like it, Just practice the routine more to get it in sync !

  • How is it stolen? Headhunters can be a common nickname for anything.

  • haha thats a dj but there a BBOY crew two different things not to mention another country, and if your gonna say that than everybody stole from what they call those tribes from way back haha

  • sickaszz chest popszz

    they gettinn buckedd =]

  • Cowboy Bebop theme??  I love krumping :)

  • Do I hear the Venture Bros. opening song there?

  • It's from Cowboy Bebop

  • Sloppy, but if they tighten up it would be really really good.

  • a bit sloppy my friend but the talent is there i fell like if they picked a better song for season 4 they are in

  • A true bboy/locking crew. Haven't seen that in a long time, bboy naytron and cowboy bebop FTW!!

  • i hate these dumb fucks who think that bboying started with jaba and supercrew....they never new shit about bboyin before abdc even came out and all they can say is ...uhhh nobody is as good as jaba...like they werent influenced by someone else before them....fuckin wankers!

  • :clap clap clap:

    thaankkk yoouuu!!

    i can't say i'm as much into the scene as i used to be, but it's sad to think that people think it's a "new era" or something.. although the winners all had some very amazing talent, they're not necessarily the most talented out there.. they were just happened to be on tv ;)

  • compleatly agree.... 1000%

    people need to know that there are far far far better bboys and dancers then jaba and super crew... seems like all they can see is whats on abdc, no1 seems to expand their knowledge further then that

  • @mdub2000 lol Anyone who believes that bboying started with the 20 year olds in Jabbawockeez & Super Crew is in serious need of history lesson. Hip Hop dancing spans 40 years, and several countries. Brazil had capoeira, the artform from which bboying is derived hundreds of years ago

  • arsenal type in headhunters in youtube before you talk smack like you know anything about bboyin.....headhunters crew is fuckin sick you dumb ass biotch.

  • you know nothing

  • i thought it was good. definitely abdc material, not a lot of mind blowing stuff, but they should have made the top 10. other crews that made it were garbage, but not everything works out the way the fans want. that's apparent from every season of the show. just my opinion though.

  • anyone know the first song?

  • first song is called "glory to god"

  • they are good but it is LA. they were not better then quest or beat freaks

  • I really think they deserved to have been on Abdc I swear ABDC sometimes doesn't know how to pick a crew

  • headhunters > GOP anyday how did GOp make it and not them ?

  • i think what abdc was trying to to this year was to pick unique crews. like they had a stepping crew, an all girl dance team, and w/e the ringmasters do. so even tho there are better crews than some that made it to the show, they didn't get on b/c there was already a crew somewhat like them

  • true. mtv is mostly about making money. just like the music producers on the market these days.

    pisses me off to know that its mostly the crappy talent that makes it to the airwaves these days.

  • not all of them are crappy. like quest for example =D <3

  • oh no, quest was an exception =]

    i actually liked the last few w/ the exception of fly khicks. seriously, if they got the lowest number of votes three times in a row that's saying something.

  • Don't hate on the Khicks, they're good. They Earned 3rd. Everytime they were in the bottom the team they faced fucked up all the time. U fuck up u fuck up plain jane. Against ring masters was a hard one but I perfer seeing sexy ladies dance then men breaking bones.

  • ABDC was trying to diversify the show a lil' bit. That's all. I consider it experimentation gone wrong. I mean, you do have a crowd of people that aren't into the "Hip Hop" lifestyle, so they wanted to experiment with groups that don't necessarily fall in under "Hip Hop Dance." However, based on the winners of the past seasons, it seems as if Hip Hop dance is a PREREQUISITE to even get far into the show's seasonal progression!

  • @iammtop cuz headhunters wasn't even trying to win they were just proving a point that all these fake ass crews on abdc, werent nothing, now if headhunters was actually trying to win they would smoke any1

  • the intro was sick, other than that bad performance lolz.

  • i agree. so much standing and posing. i was expcting a pwnage ass performance. such strong opening.

  • zepcrazyfre ur clearly retarded seeing as how headhunters is one of america's most renown krump and lock crews... not to mention some of their great bboys...

    and htf u gonna knock charisma when you can BARELY see their faces lmao...

    I cant believe they dint make ABDC... theyre great...

  • How am I gonna knock charisma when I can barely see their faces ? It's simple. You look at their motion, DUH.

  • dude its a buck crew... theyre not sposed to be fluid and what not... buck choreography is all about hard hitting stuck poses and pops... as is good locking... thats not lacking charisma... thats lacking sloppiness...

    go learn to krump/lock and then speak to me...

  • I never said the krumping was bad. I'm not a big fan of locking so I guess it was alright. But apart from that, you gotta admit it was kinda too scattered to be able to blend.

  • They got the moves, but it's like they're hella sleepy when they perform. No spirit. They kinda look like robots.

  • nice style of bboying, krump, pop, locking, but didnt seem too clean

  • that was pretty cool

  • wtf bucking crew that shit needs to be in amercias best dance crew they shoulda been chosen instead of .g.o.p.

  • I know dude I know right

  • they suck

  • that was gay

  • Wheres the charisma?

  • MUCH better than ringmasters.

    brought back pop and lockin :]

  • But they're West Coast, and ABDC already had a sufficient amount of West Coasters.

  • cool style...but still needs more practice.

  • Should have replaced Ringmasters or Fly Khicks because this crew deserves to be in ABDC. Beginning to end, it was a great audition.

  • WORD COWBOY BEBOP!!! Lol

  • SAN JOSE KILLA CALI!

  • lol, if these guys stuck to just krumping they prob would've made it on because of how 'diverse' abdc wants to be this season

  • they wouldve done waay better on the show than the ringfaggots

  • COWBOY BEBOP!

  • they are a branch of soul sector in bay area my guess is they did not want a group affiliated with another group (Supreme Soul) that was previously on this show.

  • well i know its still hip hop but

    i luked at a video on youtube

    saying that at first it was a way of

    letting out emotion so just shut up

  • i think it was a fuckin conspiracy for box cuttuhz to get eliminated. i mean seriously america? did they really put the two best crews against each other? or is it just another abdc bullshit..it freakin amazing.dont get me wrong though, TM did derserve to stay more than them

  • Yo I really think alot of people should stop judging these dance videos like they know everything. Just because you've seen 2 seasons of America's Best Dance Crew doesn't mean you know enough to judge dance.

  • BEBOP!!! but overall i've seen better routines -.-

  • every thing they did was simple no REAL creativity, and stuff was repeated. count how many times they got on their knees

  • do you really know what your talking about? No creativity? First off Head Hunters is a bboy crew, but in the beginning they krumped and then they started locking. They threw a little bboying into the mix here and there to spice it up a bit but everything they did was quite creative. With the hitting beats in the freezes, and when they were all hitting beats at the end. There's a lot of stuff they did that deserves recognition.

  • count how many times they got on their knees? thats a sad way to judge a crew hahahaha

    these guys were dope. they are really versatile and the creativity is definitely there, shown through alot of there beat riding. my guess is that if they put some more difficult group choreo they woulda made it.

  • i still can't believe they didn't make it on the show. they were definitely one of the sickest crews to try out.

  • i see why thier not on the show they suck.....

  • they were sicker than most crews who are on the show right now

  • yea the only thing i dont like about abdc is that it seems they try to get different and unique more than the best. and when they do that it makes it kinda obvious whos gonna win, like i no for a fact already quest has it cuz no one is even close to them

  • they are probably gonna have them 4 next season like team milennia

  • nothin special

  • omg the cowboy bebop theme?

    thats freakin awesome

  • these guys were hot. ABDC needs them on the show.

    if they had to replace a Californian crew for this californian crew i would say replace TM.

  • Huh, I wonder if all the teams that didn't make the live shows are teams from California. If so, it makes sense that MTV doesn't want to have too many CA. teams, because it is America's Best Dance Crew. If not, maybe the judges were just marionets because I see no reason not to have this crew given a real chance.

  • you know what's interesting about this.

    i live in SC and it's VERY hard to find a dance 'crew' here b/c no one cares about it or they're not good. There's only creativity in the bigger cities which sucks.

    So really if people really do want to 'follow their dreams' they really do have to go to bigger cities...

  • actually i dont think they could do that, thats pretty messed up

  • These guys should of made it,but i'm pretty sure they'll be on it next season,ABDC is bullshit Dynamic Edition sucks and so does Fly Kicks or however you spell it

  • they shoulda made it....wtf GOP hella sucks!

  • the first 30-35 seconds of their routine was super dope...

  • COWBOY BEEBOP!

  • WTF they were robbed

  • these guys shoulda made it

  • those faggot ass strikers made it and headhunters didnt???? ?????wow this show is surely a bust, this show gets more dumber than ever picking ditzy groups , they seriously need soem experienced people to judge this show like people from season one becuase napoleon and that other girl do not know how to pick crews

  • ditto... howed they NOT make it in yah know?!?!

  • i know what you mean. there are so much better crews that auditioned then strikers and dynamic edition. the miami cheerleaders got in?!!?!? get some resl crews on this show!!!!

  • i want rhythm city

  • too bad they didn't make it on the show

  • they weren't bad but they weren't good either.

    but at least they were better than RingMasters. everybody was better than RingMaster they were brought onto the show only cuz they're the only crew from the east coast and cuz they have two freaks who can twist their arms like 360 degrees

  • Nasty Ray is ILLL.

  • some parts were whack, but mostly dope

  • Well be pissed. I've heard they made it.

  • what kind of shoes are they wearing?

  • They wearing puma suedes.

    You guys are really dumb and know nothing about dancing.

  • nothing special

  • boo these guys shouldve made it....hopefully these guys and R2D2 will be in season 4

  • they suck

  • there choreography sucked nough said why they didnt make it

  • well i dont think they sucked, they were pretty good. no amazing but they had there interesting parts in there choreography.

    i think they need to change up the choreography just a lil bit and they'll be in season 4

  • yeasssh cowboy bebop!!!i hope they make it!!!

  • they were good but not great,idk they can work on it maybe.

  • They mos'def deserve to be in ABDC. San Jose<3

  • Makes sense why they didn't make the cut; after all, the show has to give other dance styles a chance, otherwise bboys like these and supercr3w would take the show every time. lol

  • they good dancers but this routine was enough good enough compared to the other crews routines but did u see main events aud like WTF!

  • Wdf? They had krumping and locking too.

    GOP dance made it to the first episode and they were straight up bboys.

  • how did they not get in they're amazing

  • I think the left side won... o_O

  • i dont like it

  • Tank, from cowboy bebop.

  • they good hell better than some of the crews that's on that fucking bullshit ass list!!!

  • I didn't like it much.

  • why are they grabbing their crotch when they're krumping? that's a huge no-no

  • thats why the judges said no-no to their audition.

  • these guys are the most polished out of anyone i think...they have the most experience nationally, this is just a small taste of what they'll bring....and sorry guys they aren't advertising themselves as a breakin group lol, thats just not correct watsoever

  • unfortunaetly they didnt get in :(

  • me agree with berto0000

  • LOL cowboy beebop!!

  • are you fucking joking? headhunters is a top notch bboy crew. . . look up any of their guys like nasty ray or anyone. they're fuckin dope.. they're just not good at choreography.

  • excatly there choreography sucked which is why they didnt make it I mean there pretty good dancers but u need to have good choreography or the judges like shane will diss them on that

  • my uncle was suppose to be in the headhunters but he has school

  • I hope they made it. They may not be the best during the auditions, but you'll never know what they can bring to the table once the show starts.. Being able to choreographed a pretty cool routine using an anime song showed their potential..

  • is it just me or dat guy with the mohawk is from supreme soul??

  • No, that's Naytron, but he's a bboy too

  • he does look like him.
