Sofisticated semifinal Waacking Battle at Streetstar 2013, Winner is Princess Madoki!

[@remynisce.]

I’m lowkey mad at the audience for not being more enthusiastic lmao like you’re witnessing two beautiful talented women who are both dancing to some of the best music and they’re both doing a great job. How can you not be pumped??

[@remynisce.]

@@gelleg I guess you have a point

[@user-jz8zv5hq1o]

Agree

[@iaams0]

sometimes people are so amazed by someone dancing that they don’t make a noise trust me it happens

[@honeydewjani]

I mean the audience tbh isn’t as diverse looking as the usual dance off audience lol

[@wizardrusso101]

Some people forget that waacking is not JUST about the hands. It's about feeling yourself.

[@HyruleQueen]

Madoki could be a super model with these poses, she is so elegant!

[@amari9818]

Waacking has to be my favorite. The clothes, the hair, and you can see on their faces how much fun they are having.

[@mrs.tweedy1769]

I absolutely LIVE for yoshi's look

[@treeman_mj]

yoshie! Yoshi = boy , yoshie = girl in Japanese

[@eriknumi3033]

The songs are: Feed the Flame by Lorraine Johnson I've got a Thing by Silver, Platinum and Gold Beyond The Clouds by Quartz

[@RoxanneJ81]

Thank you!

[@mmlkjh]

thankssss

[@horrorbaraz]

Erik Numi thank you

[@belladonna4765]

Erik Numi Thank you so much

[@salem2079]

Jesus Christ thank you

[@iwasborntobefly]

the thing about yoshie's dance is that it can be done to almost any music. it doesn't necessarily relate to this specific song. it's like she's dancing through the music and not relating to it as much as madoki.

[@soukeymovesyou]

Great perspective, I agree.

[@kirashaw5784]

indeed!

[@veneziablau]

iwasborntobefly Excellent point. I felt as if I was watching a lot of technique and no real feeling. She connects for split milliseconds here and there whereas Princess Madoki is just fluid and works all of the floor.

[@classicmail8239]

I think Yoshi has more of a dominant Locking style anyway that doesn't really fit with Waacking, hence the shoes. Princess Madoki completely understands the whole concept of Waacking, Punking and Posing to it's very core and that directly relates through the music. A very acute observation, one I fully agree with. If you want to see some great Japanese Waackers look up Yumeki and Ibuki, by far two of the best up and coming generation.

[@classicmail8239]

If you watch Yoshi in the final round it's more like watching a Northern Soul dancer, where as Princess Madoki's Posing is absolutely on point.

[@BoHista23]

Yoshie had *amazing* moves and footwork, but Princess Madoki really told a story that felt true to the song she was performing. All that soul and emotion she put into her routine really paid off.

[@AnIdiotsLantern]

She knew when to dance and when to STOP and just get all eyes on her. A real master of her craft

[@djkal2002]

People look like lifeless Zombies in there. Nobody is rocking to the music. How could they not? This music is hot, especially the first track.

[@imjustapancake3188]

djkal2002 what do you mean? Did you not see the second girl? She was into it lmao

[@futuredirector999]

Imjustapancake he’s talking about the crowd

[@ricomon35]

No one dances at dance competitions except the Dancers... It's called respect.

[@ValR.]

I know!!! The first one is fire!!!!!!

[@yoroshiku137]

After watching this, I am ready to fuse with Garnet.

[@watsg00dn199a]

Get in the back of the line than

[@templeofadonai5963]

SAMEEEE

[@jtarantula3390]

yoroshiku lol

[@Kiraritaah]

xDDDD

[@wowokwow533]

I think the issue with Yoshi is not only connectivity to music, but she never really stops moving. Princess really knows how to work the songs and dance in the pause,if that makes sense. It’s like in music how it’s important for musicians to play the rests and treat it like playing.

[@wohdinhel]

Yoshie’s movements seemed like just a shuffle of heavily rehearsed dance moves that didn’t relate to the music at all, but Princess really embodied the spirit and told the story of every song. It takes more than being a good dancer to win this kind of thing, it also requires being able to embody the music in that way.

[@CloverTea123]

Yoshie's jacket removal was probably the Slickest thing I've ever seen. #hellard

[@lollipopfop9965]

Really great outfits for these two.

[@ProfHighKick]

I agree! Both had great dance moves as well!

[@pksal1030]

Yoshie looking like a JoJo character is all I live for at this point.

[@Blast2224]

Anybody else here waiting for them to just summon star-studded gauntlets out of thin air?

[@Ahiruuriha]

?

[@Blast2224]

I was referencing Garnet.

[@Ahiruuriha]

Oh I just didn't get gauntlets

[@Nebulousart]

Yes!

[@xoxocamb]

hell to the yes!

[@jiminstinyhands7776]

they both did really good jobs and look like they're having fun but princess madoki took it home

[@MissJessyeNorman]

In my humble estimation, Madoki won the first two rounds, Yoshie, the third. But really, what does it matter. They are both great dancers! As Bartok said, "competition is for horses, not artists". We don't need to fight about who is better. They are both wonderful, and deserve kudos. It's simply a pleasure to watch them--and I'd personally live in a world with more talent rather than less ;)

[@thecrazyandthewild]

I think competition is for humans, not for horses (or any other animal). In fact, when humans train animals for competition, they are really competing between themselves and the animal is the equivalent of a "car", to put an example. Humans use competition so they can evolve and improve. Competition can be with oneself or with others and is not obligatory. Is a tool that can be used for everyone and is a great tool. They are so great dancer in part thanks to competition.

[@wellps812]

Im 7years late ... but what kind of dumbfuck are you to think that competition arent for humans? Literally horses competition were made by humans, wild horse wouldn't compete at running.

[@user-xv2tq7wt2b]

@@wellps812 you don’t need to take it that personally, it is only a way of speaking

[@soynymphfaery]

You guys it's just a saying. It's not meant to be taken literally

[@Ninetails2000]

I am a fat dude and I fucking want to dance like that!

[@leopie_777]

yoshie's outfit is so cute omg

[@Omni601]

Someone needs to animate Garnet doing the dances

[@unoverseladsted638]

So true!

[@moonlightrobbery]

I wonder what a Princess Madoki and Yoshie fusion would look like.

[@MuncenBuncen]

Organic Fantasy i beat princess madoki is garnet

[@RoxanneJ81]

They're both amazing. I don't know how the judges could choose just one!

[@Twilakam]

They have certain criteria they're looking for

[@SorenBaku]

Madoki was instant gratification, but Yoshie left a long-lasting spell on you. Awesome ladies.

[@ghostpoopster]

that jacket removal gives me chills

[@lumiesgotcha]

this is so cute. I've never seen this style of dance before. they both did a wonderful job.

[@CatouriSimonetteXBoo]

[@rawdonwaller]

Superb music and utterly gorgeous, elegant, highly skilled dancers.

[@EeeeVeee231]

Princess Madoki is legendary. What a performance, superb

[@karilari8057]

Honestly, how can you even judge both of them, they both were so amazing and different! I’m still waiting to see their fusion.

[@thayishere]

I love how Princess Madoki moves... it's so fluid she seems to be skating on ice. But Yoshie had that one awesome set of moves D:

[@smigoll2]

I would have given this one to Yoshie. Her style is so unique and her moves were daaaaaaaaaaamn good.

[@clenshin97]

These videos give me life

[@MoonChild-zg3gx]

[@Animaine7030]

[@baeksoltang]

Yoshie's always been the QUEEN, but it was also a great discovery to find Princess Madoki in the scene. She displayes a great attitude.

[@breyongrayson8652]

[@food4daS0UL]

This is the weirdest most awesome sort of dance I've seen! Rebecca Sugar brought me here

[@sheabeautifulme]

Both women were fiiiiyyyaaa!!! (fire ;-) ) Yoshie will always be my favorite because she has maadd groove!

[@smilestylez2488]

Yoshie took it in my opinion. But Princess Madoki did have some nice musicality.

[@stefaniakarazoli9362]

Yoshie Won . I dont know whats wrong with the judges on this battle .

[@shizuevoltam]

I’m really living yoshi’s dance, hair, choice of clothing.. basically everything lol

[@faroshscale]

WHAT IS THIS REFERRING TO SOMEONE HELP

[@keithko007]

Two totally individually talented styles of dancing! I was very impressed!

[@BubblegumFunk]

OMG I love this. Im just starting Waacking.

[@E_FoxSnowspirit]

I have absolutely no clue what waacking is but seeing them dance feels like more than just that- they are FEELING IT and bringing the house down! For a performance it’s so joyful

[@manilil4258]

damn I live for this battle!

[@neckpeck2738]

[@ephraimmarquez5148]

Steven Universe.

[@Superluigi6425]

Ephraim Marquez Might of taken quite some time, but someone got the reference!

[@ghosttown699]

I tried to imagine Garnet as Madoki

[@TheLastHylianTitan]

we are the crystal gems we'll always save the day

[@yesikanarvaez4369]

I get it because this is her dance style

[@1.kokoro]

Great style, great dance! They're really into it, and that makes a great show!!

[@scottjason7942]

WOW i LOVE the way THEY DANCE

[@F1ASC0]

OKAY SO I KNOW WE ALL LOVE GARNET BUT THOSE TWO ABSOLUTELY KILLED IT

[@lalanirvana]

Before Steven Universe, there was Napoleon Dynamite.❤️

[@esquirroupetitossau-iraty2822]

I feel like 2013 was streetstar's peak...

[@IfritZero]

both were amazing!

[@BoxPossum96]

They slaughtered it goddamn

[@Ninetails2000]

[Insert Steven Universe Reference Here]

[@damianhbk1]

Second song is "I got a thing" by Silver Platinum & Gold

[@gisellaknight555]

Thank you!

[@pockyreiko]

I couldn't stop watching Princess Madoki. That said, I don't understand why the crowd was so quiet for Yoshie... she was fire too.

[@bee9591]

racist attitude of the audience 😁

[@kuroichan101]

they are good

[@SilencerXLR8]

Wow That was amazing

[@twelfthhausjones6753]

They were both great but Princess was more fluid, used the beat to her advantage, & her moves seemed to be focused on the audience, enticing them to return energy to her more!! Both RADICAL dancers!!

[@adamxcx]

Anyone else sent here by Garnet? Just me? Ok then... bye...

[@gogogogogirl]

DISCO FOREVER!

[@NoaLives79]

OMG She was amazing. Both were, but Madoki was slaying her.

[@Not_Renn]

this seems like so much fun

[@MuZiC199ChIcK]

I wanna be princes madoki so bad ! She's so good!

[@cocoBoy18]

Thx Ishak for the title of the first song, so mad about it XD !!!!!!

[@lostmonkey5162]

damn they are soooo gooodd

[@icemeoutlikeelsa]

10 years later I just realized her name is Yoshie so that green hairstyle fit her perfectly lol

[@GlitteredStorytime]

yoshie won in my book...

[@vivalaswiveler]

Where can I learn more about this style of dance?!? It's awesome!

[@Rambl3On]

Both are insanely talented and did an amazing job! I think Madoki just vibed with the songs a little bit more. That crowd sucks though!

[@analiu1735]

Yoshie really cool

[@MrAntiSellOut]

What other songs are playing in this video besides Loraine Johnson's Feed The Flame?

[@Majeed.]

Fabulous

[@anthonykyle2883]

disculpen alguien me podria decir en que consiste el baile? no lo conozco y tampoco lo entiendo, como se sabe que uno es mejor que otro, es decir que tipo de destreza tengo que apreciar mas? disculpen mi ignorancia, gracias

[@mariamartingonzalez7293]

Bien olé ole ole desde España

[@graciemartin4206]

i knew she would win, she embodied waacking holy dang

[@xaibenali7328]

1:28😂😂😂😂

[@Savagebougie]

This is so dope and Yoshie hit that four corners on us LAWDDD!

[@Thishandleisalreadytakennn]

What's the name of the first song?

[@ilyas2546]

god give me the confidence of madoki please.

[@ChillingNami]

Yoshie, you are the best xxxx love you

[@ateezcloud4301]

🔥🔥🔥

[@Marsiekuma]

Damn, is Princess Madoki Garnet's real mom? Cause she got all the moves attitude and that power move she pulled when she sitting hopped towards Yoshie was like 'WHOA!' This style really suits Garnet and I'm going to now practice it

[@Marsiekuma]

[@aroneTopper]

I really want a Steven Universe episode that is just a half hour dance off competition that comes to beach city. I want Garnet to barely win, and tell the competitor something encouraging, while Pearl sulks, and Amethyst beats out Stevonnie.

[@danielgonzales7736]

Pov u found out about "waacking" and this is the 1st video u found to show u what it is
