Fly Khicks past Ringmasters on ABDC Season 3 Episode 4

Last night, the all girl dance crew, Fly Khicks, booted off the Brooklyn based Ringmasters on MTV's "Randy Jackson Presents America's Best Dance Crew."

After being in the bottom two last week against Team Millennia, The Ringmasters were in the bottom two again with the Miami based Fly Khicks. Apparently, the Brooklyn crew could not flex their muscles enough to go another round on ABDC. Even with the support of Lil Mama, the Ringmasters couldn't get past The Fly Khicks.

In an upset last week against, Team Millennia with many TM supporters on the audience. The viewing audience and possibly Team Millennia must of banded together to vote for other crews which possibly landed The Ringmasters in the bottom two this week.

However, in this week's challenge, "Whack Tracks," the flexing crew received more accolades from the judges than they ever had. The flexers had to take the Macarena and add in their own flavor. As per JC Chasez mentioning that the crew took a song from two sixty year old men and brought their swag to the track.

For Fly Khicks, they took on a C&C Music Factory song and danced their hearts out. I guess that's why they are called Fly Khicks. I wouldn't doubt to see Fly Khicks in the bottom two next week.


Quest is setting their sights on the top of the ABDC peak!

As for the fan favorites of Quest, Beat Freaks and Strikers All Stars, the threesome were able to deliver the power punch that they have become known for. From Quest doing the pendulum made famous by New Kids On the block, to the Beat Freaks taking on the white boy moves, these crew met their challenge.


Beat Freaks getting freaky.


Striker All Stars striking it up!

The entertaining Dynamic Edition was dealt the Achy Breaky Heart. Clogging their was to the America's heart with their hip hop inflected routine, even Shane Sparks loved their moves.



I guess America is not ready for the flexing scene and The Ringmasters ride to the top of America's Best Dance Crew.


Here are few backstage interviews from this week's show.

Introducing the 9 dance crews for America's Best Dance Crew Season 3

Introducing the new crews for MTV's "Randy Jackson Presents America's Best Dance Crew - Season 3." After some quick video editing, I finally have some video clips of all the 9 crews competing for America's Best Dance Crew of Season 3.

With some help from my new video hosts Ellen Kim and Kyle Hanagami of dance crew The Lost Kids, I had them working crazy on making sure to get some video interviews of all the Crews from the Show.

As I mentioned before, this season will definitely be about entertainment and not just dance. Get ready for the new Season and new dance crew stars as MTV launches the show this coming Thursday.

Here are the video clips below of each crew with a quick one or two line description of the crew.

The Ringmasters from Brooklyn - Flex dancing is their style. You definitely have to be double jointed. Imagine Cirque De Soleil on the streets or as I coined the name "Cirque de Soul Hey!!!"



The Strikers All Stars from Tallahassee Florida - Steppin is their style! Get ready to hear the stomp, hoot and hollas.



Fly Khicks from Miami - Hot girls with bootylicious moves. Don't count these women out as they will put their hearts along with their bodies on the line to make it to the top.



Beat Freaks of Los Angeles - On the other end of the spectrum, Beat Freaks are an all girl group that can run with the best b-boys in the world. Their b-girl moves may set the tone for Thursday night's premiere edition of ABDC Season 3



Dynamic Edition from Springville, Alabama - A surprise to the season is this cloggin group. Don't count them out because they may take the show to another level.



GOP from San Juan, PR - Boricua, Moreno. These street boys gives the hip hop flavor some Latin Soul. Can their Latin heat take them to the top. You'll have to wait this coming Thursday.



The Box Cuttuhz from San Diego, CA - The music they use will decide their style. Let's see if America decides that their style is number 1.



Quest Dance Crew from Los Angeles - These boys are pretty b-boys. Don't let the hair and pretty boy looks fool you as they make their mark on the ABDC stage.



Team Millennia from Fullerton, CA - Their rage is their power as they cut the stage with their rock edge inspired hip hop choreography. They take their grit to show the rest of the crews that they are here to fight for their banner.



There you have. The crews of Season 3's "Randy Jackson Presents America's Best Dance Crew."

Check out the premiere airing on MTV this coming Thursday, January 15, 2009. Check your tv listings for times and re-run dates!

Quest Dance crew sets the tone for friendly competition on ABDC Season 3

Last night was the first taping of the highly successful MTV reality show "Randy Jackson Presents America's Best Dance Crew" Season 3. I was there along with my new guest video hosts Ellen Kim and Kyle Hanagami of The Lost Kids helping out Pacific Rim Video to capture the excitement of Season 3.

During our pre-show interview of the crews inside the garage, the following clip Dominic of Quest Dance Crew shows the love for various dance crews on ABDC Season 3!



From the crew of Puerto Rico to the cloggers of Alabama and the excitingly and interesting dance genre called flexing, it sure looks like this season is definitely about entertainment.

Until next post, "look over your shoulder" for the crews of America's Best Dance Crew Season 3.

The show premieres this coming Thursday on the MTV Network. Check your local listing for airtimes.

The Dance Crews show their support for Culture Shock LA at The Expo

This weekend was filled with dancing and music as I attended an event called "The Expo." It was a charitable event to benefit Culture Shock LA. Guests included former dance crews and dancers of "Randy Jackson Present America's Best Dance Crew," "So You Think You Can Dance," "America's Got Talent" and two actresses from the Disney Channel's "Hannah Montana."

They were all there to lend their support and awareness for the Los Angeles Chapter of Culture Shock.

Culture Shock® is a non-profit 501(c)(3) hip-hop dance troupe dedicated to cutting-edge entertainment, dance education and outreach to diverse communities. Founded in 1993 by Nike Dance Trainer Angie Bunch, Culture Shock has grown from its home location of San Diego to cities across the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom.

Take a peek and some of the interviews I had my other correspondent Elmer do with the various celebrity dancers plus performances from Kaba Modern, Culture Shock and Future Shock....

Quest Makes their move to try and secure their spot on the America's Best Dance Crew stage

Quest is a group that has the potential of being a select few that will vie for the title of "Randy Jackson Presents America's Best Dance Crew." The group from Southern California impressed the talent scout during the LA Auditions of Season 3.

These boys are ready and hoping they make it to the live show of the MTV Reality Show. With three of its performers coming from another reality dance show, they definitely have the chance to bring it on to the MTV viewers and America. However, they caution that it can hurt them also.

Check out their interview clip from the Fore-Sight Studios in the Silverlake Area of Los Angeles .
