Dementia vs. Salah BBOY Summit '04

In my humble opinion, this was one of the best battles at BBOY Summit '04.

[@TheMoviebuff78]

Yup and 2024 still watching

[@Maram-gz1uc]

2023 any one !

[@brambilabong]

salah dances with musicality and has tricks on top of that. he is just damn good thats why yall hate

[@CameosisJ]

nice to see a new angle to this battle and the last round...props

[@abbirina]

Two dancers that are unbelievable. plus they did Cameo justice.

[@Samuel-ox9yi]

When he flipped his shoe in the air it was all but over for this other man . 😂😂😂😂

[@rogert17]

thanks man im rogert, im colombian i love the poppin, i dance a few but i am onu of the best of Santander what videos you recoment to me ?

[@sanjuz]

gives you an idea of what I think about locking

[@LetTheBeatFlow]

dementia actually put up a good show...... i was impressed..... but Salah still remains Legendary

[@CrackPaK]

2020im still here

[@TEHIIRI]

I filmed this.. crazy to see the footage resurface. This was the same day that kmel battled stuntman in the ciphers

[@baboushko]

putt other footage bro

[@terminaldeity]

Salah is the perfect example of style over form.

[@Sandalhatt]

OOOOOO! Great comeback..

[@CrimsonMaplesofAutumn]

This is some fine quality poppin! Cameo song owns!

[@sirpoppinchuck]

Yeah i was there!! Thats the Boat house at Mc Arthur Park downtown los Angeles !!!

[@jooyoungleephd]

Chuck! How have you been? I miss the LA popping scene a lot. Hope you are well, homie.

[@DezertRacer7103]

A fine battle of two very good dancers.

[@sanjuz]

Salah got badly exposed as a preening clown by a true MASTER of the game. Dementia is easily the best locker\popper I have ever seen - totally classical style - the living definition of what locking\popping is all about.

[@PoPPiNT]

Dementia is awesome :) tuts for that long XD and it looks good

[@azen2004]

i aint a poppin fan, but salah always surprises me...he can always put his popping into the song, which is awesome cus its all about the musique...but the other guy did really good also...so watever...

[@bboyforever2002]

Yo but for real...I dont know why people think you have to dance a certain way in this dance. Why does how Salah dance make such a big impact with people and they call it tricks. He has musicality, flow and originality. Besides why would you want to look like everyone else or do something that's already been done...

[@PinoyKano022]

Both dancers brought their style and it was raw. Never though of using a shoe like that Salah is just so versatile wow. Salah wins overral-Dementia wins as far as sweet tuts -2Much

[@RLLRRLLR]

Exactly, 1 of the most hard choice battles i ever seen, Salah and Dementia are my favorites :P , Cant decide :D.

[@willoxbr]

In every video of this im totally suprise!!! Salah is pure life and entertainment baby!!

[@michaeljackson37]

salah is a monster

[@neferazure]

Salah killed that shit. Of course, we do got our Salah haters, and that's ok. Anyway, much respect to both. Salah battled him, while also displaying awesome showmanship at the same time. That's my opinion. I'm entitled to that. The other guy was pretty dope too though.

[@BboyBlackout]

I was just about to say the same thing. Salah has lots of tricks and he hits the beats but no dancing.

[@Sab14G]

what's the names of the songs they dancin off of?

[@scenario1]

@fanaticfire86 yeah, people always hate on salah cause he can do it all, like you said... he entertains, does eye candy, AND he POPS... hate it or love it... he can compete with any dancer... period

[@StarvnA]

Na I agree. Dementia looked like the better dancer here. He's got real good style n flow, especially with the way he moves in an out in and into his Egyptian. Salah is more of an entertainer to me. I've been watchin lots a videos, tryin 2 c how ell he frestyles. He doesn't do much. He concentrates on working the audience. But he does freestyle good.

[@BEUXofPHAKED]

Selah's alright, it is impressive to mix that level of anatomic contortion with Bu steps, but I'm a Dementia fan and this only makes me love him more... I just love his style... Props ro Selah still, but I know way too many Monks that can do that... to my experiences he just looks like a circus performer or a yoga instructor moving to music and as i said - I know a LOT of monks that can do that, so it's not as fresh to me as it probably should be... Biggup to both of them though... Slick show.

[@Mc.Raid_]

The fedora hats though!

[@66228539]

at last who win salah in BBOY summit 2004???

[@vinaynotnice]

Salah as always 🔥

[@isyoucrazyorsomthin]

salah wasn't goofing around its called having fun while dancing.

[@kingboogalootut1]

looks like Dementia brought his A game KEEP TUTIN ON EM

[@JuNQk1E]

2024 anyone!?

[@rsaran1288]

Awesome battle, almost too close to call!

[@dubbz1]

On a scale,Dementia 99.5, Salah 99.49. Demtia did less mime and more dancing. He was locked into the beat real tight.

[@wakursa]

Um Dementia (white shirt) was the one doing the Egyptian hands and it's not an "original" move. That's like saying someone stole someone's pirouette.

[@jazzvec]

@teamstuttgard I do not agree, he always comes with something interesting unlike the other guys. and his moves are perfectly executed, isolation etc.

[@spanishdude2010]

what?!?!dementias tuts are wayy cleaner than salahs

[@BboyBlackout]

salah is a entertainer. Dementia is a popper. This was a popping battle. Not a street show. Dementia took it.

[@66228539]

who win?? tell me demenita?? salah??

[@FICTION]

whats the name to this track???

[@rogert17]

whats the name from de songs? please

[@Sandalhatt]

Dementia definitely won, no question. Dementia was on beat and actually dancing. Salah is a has been, he's does the exact same moves every time. Note: just because it looks different doesn't mean it's good.

[@FICTION]

nevermind found it!! For those who wanna know its. SHAKE YOUR PANTS BY CAMEO

[@soundara]

nobody can't dance like salah! that's different! i don't wanna say he is do popping or not!!! but obviously he is a great DANCER!

[@shamlinpapageorgio]

Anyone know what song this is?

[@runhidesleepeat]

D showed more variations but all that was the usual shit you always see. Salah came with simple moves which most people have never thought of in popping and that's what gave him the win.

[@Sephiroth32vergil]

what song is this??

[@DjGeist82]

Theres no locking at all in this video. All popping.

[@aojr03]

i dont know about ya'll,, but i want to be entertained. Salah is way nicer than dementia and much more entertaining.

[@acadia1106]

salah murdered him. I agree though Mr. Wiggles is something else. Pacman, is solid, too.

[@kenshoryu6844]

dementia was really clean

[@paulmanperson2]

I agree that beginning it was dementia who had them going, but he fizzled out during the second round.. that was disappointing.

[@harmz87]

good battle. i think dementia just does alot of tutting thought but it's still awesome but salah mixed it up which is why i think he should of won

[@harmz87]

what i wana know is how does salah dance with his shoe that loose so he can flick it off? i'll roll my ankle for sure

[@78211]

Salah Has a wicked strategy stlyle when it comes to battling

[@changedforlife]

I have a question for you then.. Sanjuz.. If Dementia exposed Salah then how come Salah went on to the finals eh? cause the judges and crowds don't know what they're doing? Man, you are just one opinion against many. keep it to yourself and stop stating opinions like they are solid facts.

[@popping87]

there's no locking in this video!

[@akeguchi]

beautiful

[@Sietesango6]

Man, they both are dope!!!!!! Dementia always getsopen and Salah is just ridiculous. Don't think he's all tricks though.........lol

[@goninzo]

Mr. Fantastic stole one of Salah's moves on So You Can Dance, the egyptian hand motion thing. It's one thing to move like someone, it's another to steal parts of the act, I guess.

[@focal69]

popmastah, please search salah vs acky. you have no idea, what you're talking about. salah just simply didnt HAVE to dance to beat him.

[@newdoom3]

Damon frost is God at flowing man, lmao XD

[@Robottoo]

salah = entertainer but still is good popper dementia = skills and technique if you can entertain with skills and technique, you win

[@focal69]

yes they are two different dancers, but they have something in common, getting ate by salah. that vid showes clearly vs acky, that salah has mature moves, and are both new and old. i watched salah vs gucchon, at the UK BBoy WHERE ONE OF THE JUDGES SUGAPOP SAID that salah beat gucchon. If you think u can just a dancer better than sugapop you're just ignorant. i didnt think gucchon got that much of the better of salah if at all ..in BOTB05'

[@chaotix6]

shake your pants by cameo

[@Tjaty]

I liked the shoe bit. Twas funny. When he uses it to futher animate he body wave i thought it was genius. The people who don't like it just prove that geniuses are never understood in their own time.

[@focal69]

i also love the kiddies on a user name like "ipoptehbestfosho" leaving ignorant msg's left and right. Salah is a beast...

[@gbotic]

i was there =D salah vs jsmooth was down

[@sanjuz]

Salah spent too much time mocking - Dementia showed sweet skills in his second set

[@willoxbr]

I think the same think bro jazzvec

[@newdoom3]

Yea, then singing abit with the song dramatically and pointing at a the person awkwardly while shimmying/gliding to the left, yea thats popping.... yep.... when dementia is "boogaloo, flowing, tutting, liquid-raving for a split second and throwing robot moves" Salah is considered "winning" by immitating his action, flowing for a bit and impressing the crowd with wierd ass movements... kinda dont look like boogaloo nor flowing...

[@thelegendbringit]

Dementia is pretty tight too.

[@aleilsonsilva1163]

Dementia é um dançarino formidável, um monstro. Sem dúvida ele foi o melhor nessa disputa.

[@sanjuz]

apologies - but for me Dementia was on a different planet to Salah

[@Krimzj]

Dementia is such a beast.

[@staphinfection]

You're joking right? Salah(in yellow) killed it.

[@skjortan]

its a battle, and Salah won it. Cus its all about soul.

[@jkhshn]

Ohh 2006

[@Goldskool]

@jesscb206 poppin is a dance not just tricks the equivalent of blow up moves so Dementia has this one ..

[@Ckevin15]

Not to disrespect salah but the part @ 2:08-2:09 didnt look rite

[@joshntequila]

Get outta here. Oh, he can hit on the hardest and most well known beats of the song.. how amazing. seriously. it just shows knowledge for the song and nice timing. dont judge over a few hits.

[@joshntequila]

Uhm, yeah as a matter a fact, in person. Hes a showcaser/entertainer. Hes a crowd pleaser. Have you seen HOW he wins? Less actual popping. More of a trick artist if anything. He has (or used to) have a bit where he pulls out a really think hanky. And just plays around with it. I swear, he had that act for like a few months. If anything, he shouldnt be winning battles against greats and originals.

[@benkula1]

New York I believe.

[@birh]

Dementia killed Salah in this one. Salah's stints were way shorter than Dementia's and werent as good either.

[@blackcat4283]

@SuperPluto10 It's good, but he's got horrible duck tuts... But a great popper nonetheless. And Salah, I don't even have to say anything.. But this didn't show his skills off too much.

[@SangrientoX3]

shake ur pants - by cameo

[@sistematix]

theze a tight battle

[@XALAZBASHE]

whats the song name pls ?!!!!

[@chafikzedek2220]

when you find the song name send me

[@clems75]

Ok, in this battle, just for the popping's point of view, Dementia took it in my opinion. But in terme of DANCE?? Well salah is waay above. And in this routine I have to say that it really looks like he isn't even trying.

[@lockingislife]

wow, a fan of salah but dementia killed itfeawijfew, anyone know the winner?

[@Ndo01]

i actually like dementia more cuz he's more funky

[@sitensideways]

holy tut b-boy man

[@SpringSauce23]

ahahahaha salah and damon are obviously good friends and your trying to make it sound like they are enemies or something... damon is certainly sick but salah has many ridiculous stuff of his own... also using his shoe as a phone, its just 1 of the weirder things he does, hasnt been before though

[@isyoucrazyorsomthin]

the only damn trick salah did was the shoe thing

[@focal69]

Salah would mangle Robert in a battle.

[@Breakerblacky01]

salah is funny and dance to music... but dementia has the flow & skillz fromm my oponion dementia wins!!
