World of Dance 2010 is coming up this weekend in Pomona, CA so we thought we'd search through our footage and see if we missed posting anything from last year's event....Whoops. Enjoy.
Lil Rock: "yo check out this power set" 2:05 Born: "that's it???" 2:22 Although no words were ever spoken, a battle must ALWAYS be a conversation between two people. Also: 3:52 BUUUUUUUUUUURN haha
because it's difficult and it's masculine/competitive to pursue a challenge? trying to cross the line is what hip hop is about. you define it, no one else matters when you're dancing.
@TheBboySpartan a westcoast legend and innovator of what a lot of bboys do today especiallyy freezes hes been around as long as ruen and frankie flav from what i know
yo send another one to the burned victims unit cuz born smoked lil rock and is it me or did he battle like a chump "don't touch me" when he was in the way then took his hat 2 seconds after he said that
12 years ago and im back! Man... I still think that if I was battling Born, and he laughed and smacked the ground as hard as he did after lil rock crashed... I probably would just go home after that. hahaha
@akatsu24 Thank you for saying what you're said. I feel like as dancing reaches a wider audience, more people want it to become all happy sappy so that the intensity of the dance doesn't make them feel bad. This is the culture, and to weaken it by making it more accessible would tear away the passion people have for this dance. You can see it in this battle, when Lil Rock started harassing Born a lil bit, Lil Rock started crashing and Born got to Lil Rock's head through that heat.
@TheBboySpartan you may not like him but he is in a lot of peoples books, he is in killafornia for a reason like other westcoast pioneer legends like crumbs ruen and machine if you know your history you would know this,way before youtube and even born :)
@petervsays What's a webster ? The limit is a very fine line. That line is determined by how far you go, and your intention. A hat is a hat, a lot of bboys have a million of them. Nothing to fight about. They're used to many battle personas so, they shrug most things off. Like I said a lot of bboys expect that behavior, and are quick to dish it back. Fighting over such trivial matters often just shows inexperience/hot headedness.
@darkapaul, HA respect? u gotta earn respect through battle, in the middle of the battle all respect is lost, no rules except for no touching, a battle IS a fight, it IS war, respect is earned
@darkapaul, lol well ty for saying that, attitude is a key ingredient. But thats the thing, the point IS to get you mad, dont you see? taking someones hat shows ur clowning them, and gets them mad, it either makes the battle more heated, or they mess up more. Back in the day, bboys used to tear each others shirts off each other, to taking a hat is nothing. and people can talk all they want, but i guarantee u lil rock knows more about respect than they do, a battle is war, its a fight, show it.
@theoreticallyrad It's a battle. Key Word : BATTLE. You ever hear the phrase "battle ready" ? It means being ready for anything. This is no different. Bboys will trash talk you, laugh, step in your territory, and take your stuff all in an attempt to throw you off your game, and clown you. Lil Rock has been around for ages, he began his career in an era which this was common place. Still is a lot of the time. Don't take it at face value.
@EnigmaticElement im pretty sure if i was to battle you and take your hat and throw it on the ground and do a webster on it. you'd probably want to fight me. theres a limit to how much a "battle swagger" goes.
Born is better because he has battled internationally, has experience in all aspects, power, foundation, rocking, musicality. Lil Rock is good, been breaking a long ass time, but his style has barely changed over the course of like 15 years. He cant leave America, his style is stagnant. He's big in LA, if at all, that's about it. Born is recognized worldwide repping Rivers, MZK, Flava Squad, Floor Gangz, ya dig?
TheJame1025 sorry but there were plenty of United States only bboy’s that could have smoked born, ground zero, skillz method, OSA, Circle of Fire, etc etc. born just repeated the same clean moves and clowned roc when he got upset. Roc lost to smooth footwork and a better attitude. Besides rock leans on his headstands to steal the set but he was to upset to hold anything.
Actually i feel i want to say i'm sorry about my rudeness to you. I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking much about what you are going to feel about my comment. I'm sorry.
@loldierofldiekatz Ok. One, I didn't insult you in any way so please refrain from doing so with me. Two, you said "Born smoked that fool. " Therefore, I mentioned that Lil Rock was not at his best in this battle, he was sluggish, and had a lot less flow than he usually does.
Sure rock would smoke me, but imagine if I, a nobody battled rock and acted like every one of his sets was complete shit. People would think I was on crack..... That's what watching lil roc battles is like. Lots of acting, not a lot of breaking. He is out there battling though, reppin. Props for that
to all the people hating on lil rock, i bet he would smoke all of you in a battle. I agree, he is a little cocky but that's how he expresses his style! Though he did shut up after the massive crash :P
@petervsays Damn bro. It's not as cut and, dry as you claim it to be. Lil Rock was just clownin' around with Born. In battles, it happens very often. If his intention was meant to purely disrespect Born then, that would be different. Lil Rock has been around for a LONG time, he began battling where stuff like was commonplace. Don't take his battle persona seriously. There's a cut off between that and, how someone actually is. Don't take things for face value, that causes unnecessary conflict.
@guardiantony31 Watch Lil Rock in the Killafornia Vs. Skill Methodz battle he was on some other level shit. Don't disregard his skill because of what you saw in the battle, this isn't even Lil Rock at 1%.
@THEDANCEBAND lol borns footwork is not weak. i think the better explanation is that it was a bad match up. 1 guy focusing on the footwork and the other on the power, but if it was a real battle lil rock did crash so eh i am learning towards born. he crashed harddddddd
Can you guys stop whining about Lil Rock's attitude already? It's a battle, you have to be ready for anything . People will step in your territory, get in your face, trash talk, and, occasionally take your stuff to clown you. That's why it's called a battle, their purpose is often to play mind games. Don't take it so damn seriously. It's a joke, it's not meant to disparage an individual. There's a cut off, in which battle persona and actual personality are divided.
Born destroyed him ;)
Legendary Bboy Born! I love to Live to watch this guy
Born is like, the hypest stylehead ever dude.
He does mostly style yet it's so explosive.
That aspect about him is what is truly admirable.
born smoked that fool!
I realize it's kinda off topic but do anybody know of a good place to watch newly released movies online?
@Emanuel Mekhi flixportal xD
@Ira Denver Thanks, I signed up and it seems to work =) I really appreciate it!!
@Emanuel Mekhi No problem :D
Lil Rock: "yo check out this power set" 2:05
Born: "that's it???" 2:22
Although no words were ever spoken, a battle must ALWAYS be a conversation between two people.
Also:
3:52 BUUUUUUUUUUURN haha
Respect to both b-boys. They both danced their styles but gotta give this one to born for flow
Haha "Get that bottle out of here this is a bboy battle son" Awesome battle
this a dope battle props to both
AWESOME~!
I never seen Lil Rock crash so hard and so much.
Dope battle
Why do so many bboys focus so much on chaining power moves? It looks nice but sometimes they cross the line between dancing and gymnastic.
Their power, their flavor.
As long as it follows the music. When the music is ignored, it turns into gymnastics for me.
because it's difficult and it's masculine/competitive to pursue a challenge? trying to cross the line is what hip hop is about. you define it, no one else matters when you're dancing.
Last round..... Last round......
"Put your hands together or you suck!" 🤣
everytime I hear this I lmfao
that mc is the dopest i swear.i hear him in some battles.who is he?
@CraftyChou tnks man
Lil rock, learn how to recover from crashes..
@TheBboySpartan a westcoast legend and innovator of what a lot of bboys do today especiallyy freezes hes been around as long as ruen and frankie flav from what i know
good battle!
btw does anyone know the name of the nikes born is rocking plz?
Is Born wearing an MZK pendant? (Like the one Taisuke wore during Red Bull BC One 2007 I believe)
@JWPnim yeah but its a battle bro.

yeyeyeye Born!
yo send another one to the burned victims unit cuz born smoked lil rock and is it me or did he battle like a chump "don't touch me" when he was in the way then took his hat 2 seconds after he said that
Hey everyone just found out that bboy Poe one made lil rock take the fall for what reason I don't know.
12 years ago and im back! Man... I still think that if I was battling Born, and he laughed and smacked the ground as hard as he did after lil rock crashed... I probably would just go home after that. hahaha
@KiNgOfNiGgA Yeah I think he is wearing green sweater or something
@akatsu24 Thank you for saying what you're said.

@TheBboySpartan you may not like him but he is in a lot of peoples books, he is in killafornia for a reason like other westcoast pioneer legends like crumbs ruen and machine if you know your history you would know this,way before youtube and even born :)

@juanboogie nah it was originally born vs lil bob cept lil bob couldnt make it. lilrock was his replacement
@mkim64 I'd love to see you tell him that to his face..he'd knock you out
Lol i swear born looks like a mix of jackie chan and my dad in the 90's, he dope as hell though
Lil rock got smoked.

2:49 Jalen hands Born;s hat back, good kid.

Damn.. 3:28.. that must've hurt like hell!
@theoreticallyrad lol just watched the vid NEVERMIND.
Lil Rock "might've" had a chance of winning if his set was longer and if he didn't crash and if he was as good as Born.
How is born better
@BboyBenjiiFuturEst ahah its all good
@akatsu24 taking peoples' personal items isn't attitude... thats just disrespect.
one word , BORNNN!!!!
I'm sorry but you just can't smoke Born if your knee pads don't match.
Actually i feel i want to say i'm sorry about my rudeness to you. I'm sorry. I wasn't thinking much about what you are going to feel about my comment. I'm sorry.
dam that corkscrew crash fuked lil rock up i bet dam aahhaha
lil rob got no respect
and he got still got smoked
@rockystars12, that was too far
Born smoke this
@guardiantony31 AHAHA. you right you right!!!
@starskreem09 i dont respect others when all they show is disrespect. background/knowledge has nothing to do with respect.
born smoked this foo.. lil rock needa go back to arkansas
Born was humble enough to drag him into only one extra round...
3:29 i know that had to hurt lmao
bboy born kileeeeedddddddddd !!
@loldierofldiekatz Ok. One, I didn't insult you in any way so please refrain from doing so with me. Two, you said "Born smoked that fool. " Therefore, I mentioned that Lil Rock was not at his best in this battle, he was sluggish, and had a lot less flow than he usually does.

@BboyRezist and you respect everyone regardless, otherwise you're no better than a hater...
@petervsays Damn bro. It's not as cut and, dry as you claim it to be. Lil Rock was just clownin' around with Born. In battles, it happens very often. If his intention was meant to purely disrespect Born then, that would be different. Lil Rock has been around for a LONG time, he began battling where stuff like was commonplace.

@guardiantony31 Watch Lil Rock in the Killafornia Vs. Skill Methodz battle he was on some other level shit. Don't disregard his skill because of what you saw in the battle, this isn't even Lil Rock at 1%.
bboy vs circus
@THEDANCEBAND lol borns footwork is not weak. i think the better explanation is that it was a bad match up. 1 guy focusing on the footwork and the other on the power, but if it was a real battle lil rock did crash so eh i am learning towards born. he crashed harddddddd
Can you guys stop whining about Lil Rock's attitude already? It's a battle, you have to be ready for anything .

@SoulHeadProduction ahahaha that's hilarious, kinda disrespectful tho but funny lol
