qLife : Dance : Who's the Best Hip Hop Dancer?

The_Catalyst: March 28, 2008 - 12:34 PM PST I second that.

dex2988: March 24, 2008 - 08:54 AM PST THIS i have to see.

alkgwathien: March 24, 2008 - 06:35 AM PST Back to what Catalyst was saying about Step Up 2, I think Robert Hoffman is one of the best hip hop dancers around today. Not only is he amazing at hip hop though, but he is a trained ballerina. And, on top of that, he can choreograph and is just a hilarious dude. Check out his website for some ridiculous shit he has done in the past, just messing around with his friends. Channing Tatum is also pretty good, but Robert has more variety in his style.

Also, I'm not too bad myself... If Melissa ever posts a video of her dancing I'll do the same and we can have a virtual dance off.

jane: March 22, 2008 - 04:38 PM PST you know i cannot really do that, dork.

dex2988: March 22, 2008 - 04:35 PM PST that's hot.

jane: March 22, 2008 - 04:32 PM PST i can totally do that.

dex2988: March 22, 2008 - 04:29 PM PST

dex2988: March 22, 2008 - 04:28 PM PST not this time. i really can't dance.

But this guy can.

jane: March 22, 2008 - 04:23 PM PST oh come on. you are just being modest. um, yeah, that's it.

dex2988: March 22, 2008 - 04:00 PM PST now jane, we talked about this. my dance moves make kevin james look like fred astaire.

jane: March 22, 2008 - 03:51 PM PST

Make a video post of you busting a move and let us judge.

dex2988: March 22, 2008 - 02:59 PM PST

half the guys in this video would diagree.

The_Catalyst: March 22, 2008 - 02:42 PM PST I saw Step Up two...despite the annoying and predictable storyline, had some interesting "hip hop dancing" but I honestly could care less about it.

I'm way too white to bust a move, I guess. Someone thought I'd be able to "Pop and lock" due to the flexibility of my legs and whatnot. Sadly, he was mistaken.

grasshopper: March 21, 2008 - 01:10 PM PST Me!~ Especially when I bust a groove at work in my cubicle. People say I've got real talent.

jacintos: March 21, 2008 - 10:59 AM PST Well, of course MJ is the king. Even though he's not a hip hop dancer, many of the dances that r&b/hip hop dancers use come from him.

I think all those guys have great moves. If I had to choose, I'd probably go with Chris Brown or Usher, but Omarion is up there too.

Melissa: March 21, 2008 - 10:20 AM PST Hahaha oh maybe some day

dex2988: March 21, 2008 - 10:15 AM PST we want video confirmation!

Melissa: March 21, 2008 - 10:15 AM PST Me

dex2988: March 21, 2008 - 09:04 AM PST MJ is a huge musical influence for me as well as countless other musicians and dancers. I think Chris Brown's emulations of his moves are definitely in a tribute to MJ. I personally enjoy when I see him do a throwback move of some sort. Plus, he brings a lot of "krumping" into his act, which I like a lot too.

MaddHatter: March 21, 2008 - 08:37 AM PST A lot of Chris Brown's movements are exact replica's of Michael Jackson. I know many musical artists duplicate Michael Jackson, but COME ON MAN!!! GET SOME ORIGINALITY!!! I guess I would have to say, Omarion has some pretty good movements.

dex2988: March 20, 2008 - 01:40 PM PST dude, I am a HORRIBLE dancer. I can trip just watching a Chris Brown video.

Alexy: March 20, 2008 - 01:01 PM PST My vote: Dex. No doubt.

say-10: March 20, 2008 - 03:10 AM PST chris brown by far.

dex2988: March 20, 2008 - 01:35 AM PST Omarion? Marques Houston? Usher? Chris Brown?

Who's the best hip hop dancer today? I'm a big fan of this video, especially the ending. Who do you like?
