you took the words right out of my mouth every last one of them were beautiful ... skin on point just glowing .. I just loved this ... I got the wraps but I don't think I look right in them but I'm about to rethink this and play around with my natural hair ... and see what it's giving because on them it was giving exactly what it was suppose to have gave lol .. 🥰

Best choreography I’ve seen in a minute 💙 the dancers are phenomenal and the energy was in point from start to finish!! Beautiful work!

[@TheMsDaniMack]

Finally... Chorography without rolling on the floor or dancing like strippers. Beautiful to watch. The playfulness was great. Reminds me of why I love to dance.

I so agree with you @Dani Mack! Im thinking "Please don't sisters. We have enough of those videos!" But to be honest I've watched and enjoyed some of those "others" but it's refreshing to see something different. Thank you ladies!👏👏

[@TheMsDaniMack]

@@christinacabbil9170 Indeed. I feel the same. Thank you.

[@mft7530]

@Dani Mac you are so right! Real dancing. Not being a stripper. That’s practically the only image you see of Black women in the media these days unless you really dig. This was stylish, amazing choreography & dancers. Hope it marks a return to more substance. Artistry!

THIS IS GORGEOUS!!! Fierce dancing, clean movements, excellent charisma, stunning wardrobe and incredible dance choreography. This deserves a roaring applause. No high heels, no need for nudity, no need to twerk at all...these ladies killed it. THIS is REAL dancing! This is what real dance skills look like. Owning it with class and power.

[@moniqueuu8777]

THIS is Black culture!!! Something that can’t be explained, from the head raps to relaxed outfits. This is what Black women look like when we’re at home and comfortable in our own space!

[@IAmTheoracle007]

This choreography was absolutely fantastic! It's a beautiful thing to see, especially before the Koreans try to get their hands on it and act like they came up with his first😂😂😂😂 they have a habit of doing this with our choreography, our music and everything else! Absolutely beautiful

[@aikinsv]

It's rare to see all black female dancers just dancing with style and grace, keep doing this

That was the most amazing thing I have ever seen. Every black girl with brag girl Swagg and major attitude needs to see that black women are in their OWN LANE. This needs to be a traveling stage performance. Come to the DMV please.

Loved that this was ALL brown shades of beauty. Loved the mix of afro ballet, hip-hop, and jazz. Loved to see those toes pointed and flexed. I WISH indigenous women wore their hair like this for real. I wish ALL black women could see their beauty. ❤️Reminded me of Katherine Dunham and Alvin Aliey.

[@afroglitz]

This is extremely refreshing. I was so over seeing them axe black women out hip hope and r&b dance routines, or placing them off to the back or side of every arrangement.
