Battle Born vs Slav United | R16 2013 | Crew QuarterFinals

The concept of RESPECT is the everlasting theme of this massive four-day event. Over 300 artists, musicians, grassroots-content creators, promoters, producers, urban enthusiasts, hip-hop heads and b-boys from around the world convene in Korea, in an attempt to provide the proper inspiration necessary to push the movement forward. What started out as a world-championship-level b-boy tournament has now evolved into a massive annual festival, which seeks to encompass all aspects of urban youth cultures, as the festival draws visitors and spectators not only from Korea, but also from different regions of Asia and the world.
In 2007, the R16 World B-Boy Championships & Urban Arts Festival was launched as a means of answering a single, burning question: With the support of the government and nation, can grassroots, youth-based cultures like hip-hop and b-boying become profitable, self-sustaining industries? Can these underground movements embed themselves and maintain relevance in society and the mainstream media in Korea and throughout the world?
Through the generous support of the Korea Tourism Organization, the Korean Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, and the city of Incheon, this year's world-class festival will celebrate and demonstrate the power of youth and the positive possibilities a gathering of this nature can create.
More than anything, this event is a testament to the notion that through dedication and passion, anything is possible. Despite all the conflicts and prejudices that exist in our world, we can still overcome our differences and unite as a group through dance.

To be honest, I've never expected Dereleek to be THAT aggressive. He made Morris look like a nice guy.

[@ayissidavelapaix7816]

men i watch this battle just because of the songs. too dope too funky

[@thegreif911]

LOL my reaction completely. Like dude, Dereleek, chill out a bit man. He always seems joyful and shit in his vids but here he's just straight pissed lol.

[@dummy3300]

thegreif911 he's a bit of a dick when battling lool

[@FUNandGAMEAxelTlexA]

Slav United - The Best!

[@KonstellationsTV]

+AxelSirius Wait until Morning of owl comes

[@adriansanchez8003]

I don't know... Morning of Owl, Melting Force, Slavic Utd and Body Carnival in my opinion are the best ones... So and R16 highlight those teams...

[@GTInai]

I was excited for Battle Born and wanted them to win. Then I watched their routine and thought... AIN'T NOBODY GOT TIME FOR DAT!

[@atnbattleborn2009]

@Mixinbowl - you are right. You should impament these theories when you go to R16 with your crew.

[@niktionary]

Yes. They next that extra edge, and Roland would have helped with points. What happened to Roland?! He deserves more international exposure.

[@fakeuser87]

Longest routine ever :S hahahaha was a good battle anyways props for both crews!!

[@tonxpo]

ууууеееееррр!

[@LacedRhymes]

Can't front the Russians did bite that routine from phase T

[@SCSAsJorts]

gotdamn

[@Samuel36427]

What song 4:32 ?

[@Erickson127]

Anyone know the first song?

[@thegreif911]

you might as well say that 7:11 is a Vagabonds bite then

[@QUAKECITYROCKER]

russia flavor is so refreshing

[@RyeowookMaknae]

*goddamn

[@DoCBlockade]

Battle Born's commando is as long as their showcase LOL!!!!

[@SCSAsJorts]

.....a Commando should never take that gotdamn long I literally went downstairs made a sandwich and they had JUST finished that routine _

[@michaelhawj10]

a wild flexum appears...

[@DaRocknOn3]

No Roland :/ he would have added a lot more Originality points to Battle Born.

[@adriansanchez8003]

Anyway they needed more

[@UncleAlpha1]

batter born still lost...what a waste of energy on the routines.

[@Plajaa]

so we have a guy who enjoyed american routines :

[@Plajaa]

last year's crew was good and also Thesis made it to win coz he is insane...but Battle born...seriously?

[@GTInai]

I understand that America fathered bboying. I like Massive Monkees and I really admire Twixx. But Battle Born, really? Count on Massive Monkees, Bboy World Team, and Fallen Kingz to take the gold at R16. Well, Bboy World Team lost to Project Soul (Korea) at Break the Floor 2013.

[@mixinbowl]

The most points you can get is 25 per round don't waste all the allotted time on a one round neverending commando. A waste of moves too, time and bad etiquette and decision....

[@adityawalterj4374]

That blue shirt talks too much

[@FYMFL]

LOL WHAT

[@thegreif911]

USA only won once out of all the R16s rofl...

[@BassandStuffTutorial]

where the dance started has no relevance. also so what. they won last year. Counting one win out of a decade of loss is sad. boty. but. let's see how many years it takes an american team to win again.
