One of the best battles from Freestyle Session history! Ground Zero / Flipside Kings w/ Kmel & AlienNESS vs Super Cr3w (Full Force / Battle Monkeys)
Filmed at Freestyle Session 8
winner: Ground Zero / Flipside Kings
Breaking changed A LOT! The battle energy, the crowds, the music, the flava... I understand that everything changes with the time, but oh my God, I miss these old days, this old energy, these real beats with feeling!
So many dope B-Boys in one battle. So glad I was there to witness this. Especially since most of these guys rarely battle nowadays.
What was it like bro? That’s history!
Keml's round in this battle is unbeatable!
Poe One is truly an amazing individual.
Today battles compared to this make me feel that breaking is long gone. Despite all the improvement in technique and detail, today b-boys really lost atitude, presence and hype. This is what happens when people try to make breaking into a sport. People started focusing on moves and combos instead of really develop their own character. Also, now we can see why crowds are dead, even in major events... no stimulus. Its a Battle of styles (crews) vs 2014 Battle of moves (crews composed by mainly major performers).
This isn’t true. Watch Silverback event
Kmel and Poe One are like G.o.a.t.s of Breaking. I love Kmels style and how he went in as soon as the beat dropped. Poe One fucking lives loves and breathes hip hop. You can see it in his attitude, his breaking and especially when you hear dude speak in a workshop. This was a crazy battle. Breaking has changed soo much.
they were on a ship for this battle right?
Anton Deckman The Queen Mary in Long Beach. It was hella dope.
Yes I was there, it was supposed to be in the coliseum next door but for racist reasons their permit was pulled the day of, we all moved to the Queen Mary after that and it was a day to remember fr!
This was one of my favorite events ever. Battle Monkeys Full Force didn’t crash. Flipside crashed almost every round. I’d be interested to know why the judges thought Flipside won.

Epic battle... love the energy... I have prefered supercrew, though... thx for the post. Peace.
Dang yo. Winning crew got booed heavy
yoooooo tells why you rocking yao ming jersey its to big mang
Alien ness is one of the biggest herbs on bbpy history. No respect and no honor from his crew and based on that alone they lost. Doesn't even matter that super crew out danced and out classed them... Culture... Even battle culture is about a respect for the art form... Bringing lazy top rocks, cutting into sets and awful choreograph is a diss to the art.
You don't know real hip-hop then. Get outta here with your keyboard toprock.
seymourglass26 I don't mean to sound ignorant so excuse my lack of knowledge, but how is the new generation supposed to respect someone who disrespects other b boys. I mean sure it's all part of the battle, but it get's to the point where it's just straight up disrespect (floor hogging, cutting in, shoving). And to my knowledge, correct me if I'm wrong, he's not doing anything to contribute to today's scene like Cros1, Ken Swift, Poe1. If I'm wrong, tell me so then I can be right.
He was a dope b boy in his day, but I don't know why he's considered a "legend."
@Justin Foster Very Foolish of you to state that...battling is about cutting and stealing rounds...its outmanoeuvring your opponent...and the battle in this culture wasn't originally intended to be a show of respect...that's a turn that was bought on later on...next you want to insult Ness's top rock...go and research him and he'll tell you blatantly that the era he was from top rock was pretty much simply a two-step for like 4 counts before hitting the floor, nothing more...and wtf are you even on about with choreography? and seymourglass26 I've met and spoke with Ness, he doesn't disrespect other bboys, he presents his opinions in a pretty raw manner but that's just how he is as a person, it's not for us to judge that, and he does just as much to contribute to todays scene as any of those people you listed, he might not do it in such an easy to see manner but he's always out there teaching, lecturing and using MZK to spread real hip-hop culture across all 4 elements across the world
seymourglass26 Right, he is an amazing contributor to the scene and a dope ass bboy but this is a formal organized battle. It's understandable if it were a cypher but its really not hard to follow simple "One round per crew at a time" edicate.
Doja 1Shot fuck you talking about ness is a beast
Man Poe lost me there this the 3rd video I seen them get hosed Always to east coast crew and Poe was judge another time lol Back than they couldn’t fly east coast guys out and not let them make it far
Except if you watch his prior interviews all he does is hate on top rocking... And that's all he does.
Robbed!
Ground zero and them other cats wack
They got robbed lmao
Judges wack call!!!
politics in everything.the older and probably more exposed(sponsored) b-boy's probably barely break even against the younger/ local crew.How shit goes
Bboys still be crying at jams like this, and D riders will never change💩🧠
