BY GIFT GAVINKO AND BONGANI M
After a months of grueling
auditions all over South Africa with over 200 dance crews audition for the most
sought after title in South Africa’s dance industry. The day finally arrived
where the 8 dance crew finally went head to head in hopes to be crowned this
year’s Red bull beat battle Victorians. The guide mag crew made its way to
Walter Sisulu Square in Kliptown, for this year’s red bull beat battle. After
last year’s crazy battle we were not going to miss this year’s one.
This year’s competing crews
1. Freeze Frame – Hip Hop
(Kempton Park, Gauteng)
2. The Prophelaz – iSbhujwa

6. Supreme I – Hip Hop

7. The Perfect Storm – Pantsula

8. Warrior Knights – Hip Hop

All the dancers were ready to
go to battle, one impressive performance after the other, the judges had a
tough decision to make on deciding who was going to come out victorious and after
months of intense rehearsals the stage was set the battle was on, our MC for
the night was none other than Mr Thapelo Mokena (The dude from the Hunters dry
adverts) who happened to be last year’s MC, this year he was on that Jason
Derulo tip riding solo.

This year’s judges were Somgaga (Somizi) , Lorna Maseko
(Top Billing presenter), Vouks Nojokes (Bboy Vouks Nojokes), Tumi Tladi (Artistic
Intelligence).
One highlight of the night
being Panzan Entertainment crew with showing that the sky is the limit and
inspiring the crowd with one of the dancers being handicapped but the crew
being in sync and one that even inspired Somizi to donate R20 000 to the
Sebokeng boys.
With performances by Trancemicsoul,
‘Doc Shebeleza’ Cassper Nyovest was disappointed he didn’t call okmalumekoolkat
to perform with him seeing he was also at the event, Siya Shezi, Kwaito legends
Trompies, Dj Shimza and DJ switch even giving the fans a taste of his new
single featuring L-Tido and Maggz.
