ABDC S5E10: Hip-Hop Nation & Last Chance Challenge - LOL, "ABD": Asian Booty Disease? i.e. the general lack of an ass. The Hip-Hop Nation challenges are usually pretty fun since it's like a grab bag of dance styles and I was impressed with Hype 5-0's energy coming out, but raised an eyebrow at their dissing as I don't think they performed that well across the season to be throwing out disses. But you know . . . both Blue Print Cru and Poreotics left us with pretty low energy last performances. D: You have to take a cue from We Are Heroes and go for manic energy, ABDC crews! It's about audience connection! (Like why After School beat SNSD at SDB--gotta bring the energy and get the audience into it.) I was ready to go with Blue Print Cru, as I think they brought some pretty consistent quality over the season, but then I saw their last performance; I think Poreotics' comic video game shtick will carry them in the end. (Ah, I love me some old school gaming music. XD They needed a Tetris remix up in here!)
Fawk YEAH, new Beat Freaks routine!
(LOL, the crowd. I love that they call the members out by name. "What's up, Rino? Hey, Shorty! Get it, girls!")

I love how much they love what they're doing. You can see it in the smiles, the way they hit beats, a little teasing of the crowd (lol, the fake out low-five!). Allison returned but Lady Jules wasn't present and Teresa seemed injured. I wonder if this means they'll be performing with all 8 members in the future. OMG, THE COSTUMING FOR THE DANCE HISTORY PART! AHAHAHAHAHA. Man, that's something horrendous. And! And! And! Can I marry Maryss? :(
AHAHAHAHA, omg,
I see animal pajamas (again)! Beat Freaks endorse Nike. Not bad for a little dance crew, huh?
