ABDC Season 4 Is Ready to Come At Cha!

After taking a long long break from Season 3 of "Randy Jackson Presents America's Best Dance Crew" I've been working on my video site Pacific Rim Video while keeping Pacific Rim Photo Press up with celebrity event updates.

During that time, I took on an independent media consulting job for Parman Law Group, a firm that practices loan modification, bankruptcies, debt settlements and personal injuries in California. By the way, even if you're in Washington, they'll be able to help with a home loan modification. Check them out at parmanlawgroup.com

Back to ABDC! Get ready for Season 4 this coming August. After three seasons of the West dominating the top spot of the show, will we see the East, South, Midwest, or North show it up? We'll just have to wait. Check out my youtube channel at youtube.com/pacificrimvideopress for interviews of a few of the groups that came out to audition during the Los Angeles portion of the ABDC crew search.

Just to whet your appetite, here's the ABDC trailer teaser:



Here are some video clips of crews from the Los Angeles Audition:

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....

Super Cr3w crowned America's Best Dance Crew

Last night you could feel the the energy on the ABDC set as fans of SoReal and Super Cr3w were cheering on their favorite group before the show commenced. By chance, to bumped into Ailyn Isidro's mother in the parking structure with her son as they were heading to the set of the show. I had a quick chat with Mrs. Isidro and you could feel the genuine support for her daughter and the SoReal Cru. Just seeing the smile on Mrs. Isidro's face said it all.


SoReal always has a smile on the face no matter what!

The show started with each region and those particular crews representing on the stage. From the east to the west the crews illustrated the reason they were part of the top ten.

After watching all the crews perform with their respective regions crews, you could definitely see why Super Cr3w and SoReal were in the finale.

A wonderful note on the Asian/Filipino front was Super Cr3w representing the Filipino Pride with their outfit emblazoned with the three stars and the sun lifted from the Filipino flag. More surprisely was RJ Puno's mentioning Filipino Pride out loud for America to hear which Super Cr3w really didn't mention in previous episodes.

Fortunately for Puno and other Super Cr3w boys, they took the crown of America's Best Dance crew.


Super Cr3w for the win!

No worries for SoReal as they are still proud of their accomplishments of where ABDC has brought them. With confetti and fireworks abound, Super Cr3w celebrated their victory.


Supreme Soul loves the feeling back onstage!

After the show, I had the pleasure of Speaking to SoReal, Supreme Soul and Mario Lopez. We'll have videos up soon.

Super Cr3w was so busy with other mainstream outlets that we didn't get a one on one with them. Only a quick 3 to 4 question interview with four outlets yelling out their questions.

Mario said he needed a break esp with flying back and forth from NY to LA every week.


Love is in the air with Ben Chung of the Jabbawockeez and Yuri Tag of Kaba Modern as they remember boxing it out on the set of at the Finale live taping of Randy Jackson's America's Best Dance Crew Season 2 Episode 10 of Stage 23 at the Warner Bros. Studio in Burbank, CA.

As the lights dim on the stage, the crews, their families and friends were ready to head out to the after party at The Bungalow in Hollywood. As for your roving reporter, I'm off to the casinos in Vegas to let off some steam. Maybe I'll bump into Super Cr3w.
