[xnyn95]

What is the name of this song

[jbalibay]

@xnyn95 DJ Ben - Space Disco

[HugoTheSavant]

@jbalibay

Nope.

[Ratseeker]

Awesome funk, too bad he got a lot of points deducted for that tripping backstep he tried to recover from.

First guy is definitely a fish out of his own waters.

[demoncstrike]

both of them are so dope

[GreyAssault]

Machine is just LEGEND...

But Farid has funk... I think Farid should'vd won...

[sarubboy]

farid was good but prob get smoked in full bboyin battle

[BluesUntukJack]

different Bboy different STYLE

but FLAVA IS FLAVA :D

[TheSekieRZOo]

Name Song Please :D

[psye07]

1.07 machine hungus!let farid finish

[JayDoe91]

the more i watch it the more i think farid won

[Krimzj]

@JayDoe91 Farid fell twice.

[AzNxFrenzy]

I actually thought that Farid was better in this battle O.o

[darkarizard]

thumb up if you think farid sucks

[childofmetal]

@darkarizard I think you suck but I just thumbd you up. I fail.

[TheOozedes]

Nice tops but lets be real, Machine is the shit...mad funk and did his tops in both directions using crazy style and dancing on beat and dancing to sub beats 99% of bboys dont dance too.. first time iv seen Farid dance so would liked to have see more and a lot of his umph came from his right leg but nice battle think im gonna watch it again!

[cujamx]

alguien sabe de quien es la rola

[yum0724]

both dope

[csanzny]

what's the name of this track? Thanks

[greymon54]

To whomever went first, meh, good and fast, and insane technique, but he looked at his feet... the whole time. I loved the second guy, pure oldschool, and intimidating by looking the opponent in the face, and the audience.

[Njzfinest]

farid 2 sloppy, or many scared of machine

i would be >.>

still dope

[sagelord21]

funky fresh

[dakillanocerus]

reminds me of that one toprock battle between mathias and jawad. farid's got mad style but props gotta go to machine: the badass, the legend, the beat eater. however in this battle machine got a bit repetitive.

[bboyillscience]

tough call..I think farid was more soulful but could have brought more

[zamamattiolo]

where are machine s foundation.... i see shit..... same basic everytime... check his 3 sets and try to see what i mean.. you ll see the same step over and over with some little variations that s it. any rocking bgirl and bboy from new york would burn him so bad.

[Zmw192]

damn machine is so little...but so good...that slow mo shit was dope

[tWiZo1point5]

FARID WON

[TheBboyKamil]

Machine WON ! ;))

[Chi6u]

nvm its  dj ben - space disco

[Chi6u]

whats the name of the song?

[forwardsikology]

Do-knock, (john cruz), or machine?who'd win?

[SolidSnake240]

Now that would be a sick battle. IDK man, Do-knock and Machine both have killer styles. i honestly think it'd be a tie.lol

[forwardsikology]

...true that..true that...who knows what the future holds....

[Krimzj]

@forwardsikology Machine IMO but it depends. Everyone has good days and bad days..

[forwardsikology]

..Both of these dudes got mad style man...Ive seen a handful of machines vids and must admit he is dope but i have only seen this one of farid..Machine has dope tops..but....Farid has this unique style that i havent seen and i admit its tight and want to see what he makes of it in the future..he'd definetly be one to not sleep on..Great battle hands down...

[siempreloqueyodiga]

1:34- 1:59

bboy farid

[iwantram3n]

@siempreloqueyodiga for real...i love how unique his style is, so full of freaking passion and musicality

[CubixHour]

farid beasted on it

machine just went harder

[5845147]

I nut every time I see machines tops...

[TheRomashkins]

Plz say whatta song?

[TheRomashkins]

Please say whata song

[alexlvnv1688]

Both hittin the beats like crazy

[rumpita]

song?

[DEMIZE3OOWSM]

yeah bro i agree with DISTERNYC

[DISTERNYC]

No, my "brother". Their movement and rocking are that of UProcking. Just because they are dancing individually mean that they are toprockin. Understand that the movement pertains.

[DISTERNYC]

this was mostly UProck... not toprock.

cmon people

[DaSoulCity]

This is TOPROCK battle brother

in uprock battle..

both of em rock at the same time

there apacheline in the midde

and both of em dance to the whole song all the way against each other

[dzjai]

@DaSoulCity

i think he meant they were using mainly uprock steps/movements and less toprock steps/movements.

Although your analysis isn't wrong... it's just he meant something else.

[iwantram3n]

@DISTERNYC

they're both passionate dancing to hip hop music or anything that carries a nice solid beat, so as long as them uprockers are expressing their souls through hip hop dance we are essentially brothers.

[cvartaaa]

1:33 i love it! :X

[DEMIZE3OOWSM]

both of them were rockin to the beat cool battle that was

[cvartaaa]

both are cool , depends which style like more :)

[mentor32]

To be honest Farid didn't seem confident, he almost seemed intimidated by machine - he should've done more when it was his set IMO. Respect to both bboys

[moloko89]

why is it called toprock? what does it mean?

[IDontUnderstand22]

toprock is all the foot work while standing up. usually before yu go down into yer set. but in this case its only toprock. as titled.

[thebboytoro]

machine last toprock is hard

[Maxaga]

last 10 seconds were sooo insane

[myleftsh0e]

23-26 is dope

[hatazhi]

song name?

[ermermidkyo]

machine KILLED the beat. NICE.

[Muzicfl0w]

are yall crazy? machine won hands down!

[Chink4Life]

Machine won because he came out with something different each time and he rocked the beats farely well. Farid had a good toprock and his own original style but he was a little repetitive with his uprock. =P

[sweetcutefrisky]

damn i love the way farids uprocks are.

[golfmaniac007]

@sweetcutefrisky cuz there is some dance in his uprocks

[gookchild]

machine had pure technique

Farid showed mad soul and funk, something you don't see everyday.

[Khultan]

@gookchild WTF does that even mean? LOL You can distinguish the difference by inventing a crazy vague critique that one guy has technique and the other guy has soul?!? WTF?!? Yo, you need to stop fucking with the weed, get your fucked up brain off of it., Stupid.

[gookchild]

@Khultan you're mad at a comment made a year ago LOL

[Khultan]

@gookchild Hi, yeah, I get a kick out of stupid people, such as yourself, who go by the pretext that a comment, indeed, one such as the one you left will simply remain unrefuted, regardless of the nature of the forum, be it virtual or actual. Mad? Nah--you're not reading it well, nephew. There's none of that whatsoever-incredulity, yes, but that? Please.

[gookchild]

@Khultan No need to stress the U in JAGUAR. Farid has swag. You can see it in his style. It's something a lame guy like you would never understand. How mad are you? lol

[Khultan]

@gookchild Not stressin, Herb. You're trippin'.

[christiaan81]

love it

[blavgk2]

i think farid took this

both of them were rockin it fresh...

[flyersqb5]

dj ben space disco for ppl who keep askin even tho someone already said it on the comments.

[BboySlaash]

Farid won .

[bboyquestroc]

wats da song????

[masteryas21]

i love it!!! so much style... two really good bboys. peace.

[siempreloqueyodiga]

machine is better , but in my opnion in this battle farid win

[Rokidla]

woow sickest toprock battle i'v seen. They were both awesome, but i still think machine won :) thou the other guy, Farid, was also dope... dunno, maybe a tie? anyways :) GREAT BATTLE!!!

[BboyClydes]

Whats the name of the song?

[Pandabearmadness]

i'm just guessing hearing the crowd , it was very biased towards farid they werent giving maching the do props. i think you 2 make very good arguments for farid and looking at it from that perspective farid looks pretty dope. but hes not hitting the beats as clean as machine. also machine threw farid into space and started to watch him fall.

[Pandabearmadness]

machine moves are so dope , everything on beat . farid imo didnt even hold his own . if you listen to the beat and watch there movements , machine is hitting everythign. i guess if you going to argue for farid you could say his style was good.

[serioussam11]

I'am really amazed by both of their toprocks, both had amazing flow and style. I watched this video the first time and subsequent times after than an couldnt believe machine didnt take this one home (I don;t think he won it). I was upset at first because he clearly seemed like he went harder, but looking at it again, you can see that farid did some pretty impressive stuff with the music, AND he was hitting the beat too, just being more intricate and using less space the Machine. Watch his feet

[serioussam11]

He (farid deserves a lot more credit than I think he's getting in the posts. He was extravegant, different, and moving his legs in ways I think most of us could dream of (pay attention to the foot thats touching the ground - he hits every single of the the horns in both sets). All in all both were dope though, I'd have at least called it a tie. They both killed it in their own. Classic Machine beat-killing style vs. Farid's intricate foot work. Both of them smashed this to pieces

[DanielKeithMorrison]

did machine really win? Cause farid came hard to me so i don't know.

[damnzenman]

Winner: Machine.

The End.

[siempreloqueyodiga]

@damnzenman farid destroy him. machine never could won a top rock battle vs farid, however machine is better bboy in the others aspects

[To0ney]

Farid gets props, but he couldn't hang with Mach

[RhuggaRhugga]

machine murdered him

[demonic4ce]

I wouldn't go so far as to say machine "murdered" him.

Farid got some nice moves.

[toone787]

after watching this a second time machine did take this battle but props to farid

[lanmoruk]

i'm machine fan but farid u was killa man

[pawrzix]

dj ben - space disco

dope

[chizpito]

wats the song?

[aquatier]

haha...machine took this fucking battle man

[STR8MANIAK17]

machine sassed.. killed..munched.. slaughted his ass..

[Maho2109]

not at all, Machine is a killer, but here Farid was pretty good and original, but Machine could dance like that 20 minutes without a break, here it's 2 minutes, Farid can front him and be proud, but he knows who's the master

[ougyargman]

Machine killed it
