Both Jeems and Lil Blade were ON POINT in this battle. I know it's hard to accept our favorite dancers getting beaten, but it's nice to know that there's a new generation of hip-hop dancers on the rise and these two are at the forefront of it.
+jawapulog I disagree, and here's my reasoning: Majid had good musicality (transitioning from one sound to another fluidly), technique, groove and originality (came in with his own distinct monkey style) while his opponent literally only did basic variations of footwork with no additional twists, and he only showed great musicality once through his entire round. P-Dog wasn't as great as Majid but his footwork/gliding had great flow/technique to it and he brought the energy, and while his opponent was a lot better (better groove/perfectly timed power move/etc.), he repeated the crisscross 5 times (including the combo part).
+Ken Inao You're right, when it comes to technique, originality and maybe even understanding the music, Majid may be light-years ahead of Lil Blade (who I'm assuming you're referring to) because he's been in the game far longer than Lil Blade has (Lil Blade might even consider him one of his idols, as I do). However, when it comes to battles like these, the best judges don't look for who can do the fanciest looking, most original moves on beat. What they look for is true musicality, meaning the one who more effectively communicates the music. And most of the time, true musicality goes to the one who FEELS the music better at the moment and communicates that feeling. For me, Lil Blade was able to achieve this by taking that moment and feeling the music in his rounds. True repeated a lot and his "criss-cross" moves may look amateurish, but looking at the big picture, all of his moves constituted a round wherein he felt and effectively communicated the music better through feeling. Although I can't find the video right now, even Majid himself has said in an interview in the past that when he judges, he doesn't look at the dancers combos or moves, but rather he looks at whether they really feel the music or are in the moment. I know this sounds all sounds pretty outlandish with all its subjectivity, but in a way, that's how I think hip-hop dance is more dynamic compared to a style that's technical-heavy like Bboying. I don't know if you'll agree with this long post or not, and just rule out Niki and the other experienced judges as "inept"; all I ask is that you (and anyone else reading this) be more open minded when looking at dance. :)
jawapulog I understand where people come from with that reasoning, and in this game it's totally plausible since how one sees feeling the music is completely subjective. I thought Majid felt it several times more than Lil Blade, but it's all subjective to who's watching in the end haha
Haha it's so funny how Majid tells Lil Blade in the second round "no tricks" and a few seconds later he nonetheless kills the beat with his trick and Majids reaction to that :D
+jeezy. this is the first time i've seen them! and i thought that they had it! what are you saying about bboy moves? i dont see people complaining when ukay,rochka or killason use a freeze in a battle Stop hating and give cred where it's due!
Lil Blade is already a monster at his young age but let's be honest Jeems is pretty average compared to the other dancers in the competition. Majid and P-Dog should have won. Easily.
People downvoting because of the decision rather than the battle itself. Just enjoy it for what it is - a great battle. I would have liked to see more from Majid myself, but he will be back soon and kill another event.
+Olivar Rodén just 17 people clam down lol, u shouldnt care about likes or dislikes if u just here for the battle, doesnt mean shit to you, but just imo. it was a great battle none the less, im not a big majid fanboy, so i can say i thought they won, but both did fuckng good :D
Super late reply (just re-visiting this), but I was just going off of the vibe of the comments. Of course a battle as sick at this has more up- that downvotes, and personally I think it was very close. Majid won the first, second is very close, and the third I'd hand to Lil Blade. Lil Blade with a more skilled partner would make a killer duo!
I don't know maan, it was a cool battle and Lil Blade is a very talented dancer but apart from that few beat kills he repeat himself a lot and (at least for me) wasn't as engaging as Majid during the last round.
Yes thank you finally someone else that agrees with me! He repeats the criss cross more than any other dancer I've seen repeating themselves, and it's not just here lol it was also at Holland too
Respect to James & Lil Blade but I think the judges kinda have fucked up here. And later, the battle against Rochka & Waydi - the same shit. Not because any of these dancers are my favorites, I really think the new generation still need to grow.
+SwordlessOne Wait what? You really are so biased to believe that Rochka and Waydi lost that battle? You sound bitter as fuck homie. The judges made 100% correct decision in this battle, they one sided that second round completely, no discussion.
u said ''I think the judges kinda fucked up here'', i don't know if you know this, but your basically saying ''The judges fucked up'', know what you're saying before you type. And there are also more opinions than yours
+d15craxx Are you dumb or something? Waydi and Rochka did lost their battle against them, to everyone surprise, myself included. Thats why he said the judge fucked up. Because they make lil blade and James win their battle against Majid, Waydi and Rochka.
Its not what your potential is in dance it is how you dance on the day. Lil blade and Jeems won this fair and square. Artists get bored and start to divert their styles and also get bored of battling but all the crowd want is someone who is hungry and kills it every round.
His partner is pretty good today, you should watch Hip Hop Kingz finale Majid and Frankee Dee vs Luciano (Lil Blade) and Jeems, it's a pretty recent battle. You should also be aware people can improve, I'm glad Lil Blade never gave up his mate, unlike what you suggested him to do.
I feel that lil blade & jeems are getting too much inspired for les twins. Everyone who saw les twins battle in fusion concept 2014 will agree as well. But they're still good, specially lil blade. Majid, as usual, killed every single moment.
Lil blade is really good, even if he loose against Majid, for sure. But the real problem is, it shouldn't be any extra round, Majid & PDog won in the regular rounds... It doesnt make any sens... Majid destroyed Lil Blade and Pdog is above James for sure. So basically, even Lil Blade is super good, the team Majid & PDog won this...in the normal battle. The last round, it's a 50/50, but lets face it, musicallity, diversity of mooves, sens of music... Majid overkilled the young man, which is completly normal...
fuck... the judge... juste debout paris!!! wie kann man nur die 2 mit majid.. pdog... vergleichen ? 1. majid. ganz starke runde ! pdog.. auch sehr stark wieso sollte es eine 3 runde geben warum boa... diese. verdammten... jurrys.. ja qifsha.. nonen.. no.. hate.. aber dieses Mal juste.debout.. fail..2016. bastardo

+jawapulog exactly, majid clearly lose, majid seem confuse between freestyle n hip hop dance.... that the main reason he lose...
+jawapulog I disagree, and here's my reasoning: Majid had good musicality (transitioning from one sound to another fluidly), technique, groove and originality (came in with his own distinct monkey style) while his opponent literally only did basic variations of footwork with no additional twists, and he only showed great musicality once through his entire round.

+jawapulog Repeating shouldn't be too much of a problem, but at the rate he did it even a non-dancer can call him out for that
+Ken Inao

this gotta be one of my fav dance battles MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN love this !
Haha it's so funny how Majid tells Lil Blade in the second round "no tricks" and a few seconds later he nonetheless kills the beat with his trick and Majids reaction to that :D
I Felt Sorry For Him :D
He was angry because he Breakdance
Cuz these moves are for Bboying. If he don’t like this category, then he should’ve participated in Bboying. Enough said
@@gihad6177lmao ukay,criminalz crew and many more hip hop dancer right now used bboy move.
5:23 wow, that was sick, I like it
how to win JD 2K16 Hip Hop Battles - use bboy moves
i agreed, he just doing b-boy moves and he want to enter red bull bc one
+jeezy. this is the first time i've seen them!
and i thought that they had it!
what are you saying about bboy moves?
i dont see people complaining when ukay,rochka or killason use a freeze in a battle
Stop hating and give cred where it's due!
I think it's ok to use breaking in a Hip-Hop dance battle, cause breaking is the original Hip-Hop dance, as far aś I know.
+Margaret S well u know wrong
+Deedlee24Gaming can you, please explain why? :)
Majid has to stop with the football shirts ahah
+Ivium IKR!!! LOL
Kod Finals shirt
I'm tired of these judges fucking up the game, but Majid was on point than anyone.
the young black killed it for real. fresh moves with a lot of energy put into it. great thats what we wanna see !!!
Lil Blade is already a monster at his young age but let's be honest Jeems is pretty average compared to the other dancers in the competition. Majid and P-Dog should have won. Easily.
+Arnoboy93 but they lost
+d15craxx Hence my use of "Should have"
People downvoting because of the decision rather than the battle itself. Just enjoy it for what it is - a great battle. I would have liked to see more from Majid myself, but he will be back soon and kill another event.
+Olivar Rodén just 17 people clam down lol, u shouldnt care about likes or dislikes if u just here for the battle, doesnt mean shit to you, but just imo.

Yes thank you finally someone else that agrees with me! He repeats the criss cross more than any other dancer I've seen repeating themselves, and it's not just here lol it was also at Holland too
who were the judges ?
Respect to James & Lil Blade but I think the judges kinda have fucked up here. And later, the battle against Rochka & Waydi - the same shit. Not because any of these dancers are my favorites, I really think the new generation still need to grow.

Waydi and Rochka did lost their battle against them, to everyone surprise, myself included. Thats why he said the judge fucked up. Because they make lil blade and James win their battle against Majid, Waydi and Rochka.
+TenshiNoAme LOL, yes! Thx for your explanation :D
Waydi n Rockha lost bcs they broke the rules. Can't do more than one team choreo in the same battle anymore. Shitty rule if you ask me.

Its not what your potential is in dance it is how you dance on the day. Lil blade and Jeems won this fair and square. Artists get bored and start to divert their styles and also get bored of battling but all the crowd want is someone who is hungry and kills it every round.
sorry by majid was better then lil , these peoplo get confused by the craw, and the true is this, majid won.
Holland steppes up in the hiphop first paradox now Lil bade
Lil Blade needs a better partner...
His partner is pretty good today, you should watch Hip Hop Kingz finale Majid and Frankee Dee vs Luciano (Lil Blade) and Jeems, it's a pretty recent battle.
You should also be aware people can improve, I'm glad Lil Blade never gave up his mate, unlike what you suggested him to do.
In purpose the dj gives the first cold part to Majid bécouse he's knwes majjila Majid can handle it...killed it and change it to a legendary round
I feel that lil blade & jeems are getting too much inspired for les twins. Everyone who saw les twins battle in fusion concept 2014 will agree as well. But they're still good, specially lil blade. Majid, as usual, killed every single moment.
wow majid got robbed
¡Majid!

Love Majid and P-Dog but they lost against this upcoming and raising group of young boys called Lil Blade and Jeems! :-)
Totem Daim lil blade is okay, but still lost against majid. jeems ist fucking horrible, good round by pdog.
majid looks a little irritated...hmm maybe he knew the outcome or something
Germani comand goood WIN 100%
After, Jeems and Lil Blade got stoned in the final against rushball 😅
Why are Lil blade and james using Criminalz moves? ( waydi's and larry's )
Majid!
pretty disrespectful attitude towards Majid and P there
majid hat einfach rasiert.

James and blade look like clowns to me... esp. in the final vs Rush Ball they didn't have a single good round
How bout now?
Lil BLade's first round. xD
majid makes shits.. i understand why he lost extra round........ hip hop isnt only body control and acrobatic moves..... its dance
lmao majid had way more control and more advanced and clean movement. Lil blade won with a bboy trick, awesome.
P-Dog Kiled 1 Round
Lil blade is really good, even if he loose against Majid, for sure. But the real problem is, it shouldn't be any extra round, Majid & PDog won in the regular rounds... It doesnt make any sens... Majid destroyed Lil Blade and Pdog is above James for sure. So basically, even Lil Blade is super good, the team Majid & PDog won this...in the normal battle. The last round, it's a 50/50, but lets face it, musicallity, diversity of mooves, sens of music... Majid overkilled the young man, which is completly normal...
