Man, even though Thesis is so young, you would never be able to tell by his dancing. Such confidence and perfection from such a young bboy is amazing! Great battle. Machine at the end.... mindblowing
i love how two rival countries with so much history of hatred towards one another grouped together for the sake of art and representing asians. team asia ftw!
Yes, money does make the world go round, but that doesn't mean an event can't be had without corporate sponsorship. Look at the early Freestyle Sessions, BOTY, and even the BBoy Summits- those were done with local and scene sponsorship. It's the big money prizes that require the big sponsor names and that is what corrupts the scene. The problem, I think, is that it has become such a standard to have huge venues, huge sterile circles, and huge money prizes, that when the corporations do want to
Darkness was in IBE 2005 :P but don't expect your fav bboy to be in as specific event, I mean I wish darkness was in this one but when he was in his 25s :P
be involved more, there won't be much hesitation. I can see it happening already. It's not nearly as bad as the 80s-- when corporate greed nearly gutted the scene to oblivion-- but it's still quite a looming threat.
I don't know about moonsojung, but I feel that corporate entities should not be involved in sponsoring bboys, ever. This (and hip hop in general) should never be bigger than an expression of yourself. Who the hell needs corporations to sponsor that? This is a main reason why the dance, the culture exploded in the first place: it represented the essence of self in such a way that most people couldn't fully understand it.. and that in itself brings some serious soul to the equation.
Japan side was Katsu from Style Vale Tudo/MZK. You might be confusing Katsu as Taisuke. Now you may be talking about Taisuke killing it in this entire IBE event in maybe the other battles like against Europe, but as for this very video clip we are commenting under, Taisuke did not even come out once. If he did, show me where because I just looked through this whole video clip again and first guy out was Thesis, last was Machine, and in between that Taisuke is nowhere to be found dancing.
I just notice that Thesis was biting Toyz. lol but they have similar stylez but the ending to his first set is EXACTLY how toyz does his lol. I cant wait to c those two battle.
both korea/Japan and the US are good in both ways - I am no dancer but every bboy dance their best - so if you are not a dancer, at all, just shut up and watch the video instead of being super-protective of your fav crew.
I think narumi & shie chan is in the crowd!! I maybe wrong, but it looks like them.Correct me if i'm wrong? Narumi in the white with a camera & shie in a brown/maroon shirt. I know they competed in this ibe against france. That would've have been dope if they battled!!
in agree with you entirely, but the problem with that is who would fund these events if it werent for corporate sponsorship? it may be sad but money does make the world go round.
MZK fest starting Born went out, then it was Katsu, Smurf, Kazuhiro (could be wrong about Kazu), Alien Ness, then you could see Katsu and Born talking about their commando. Haha, thats MZK love...
Damn this battle was tight! I kinda wished Bboy Kandoll (Expression) was there in the, he woulda' killed with his insane footwork. Oh well he's not very well known, but it woulda been nice seeing Snake or Physicx too. Machine, Thesis, and Luigi were killin' it too! Does anyone know the song starting at 2:53?
It's funny because it always seems like katsu & born think of each other as rivals. There both in zulu & they both hit beats. U can tell whenever either go in the other seems anxious. Idk i maybe wrong:}-
Dude, Taisuke didn't even come out once in this part 1 video, not once. He came out later on in like part 2 or 3, yes around one time. But as for this video we're commenting under right now, Taisuke did not come out even once, the guy who came out most from Korea
haha.. yeah, man .. but it seems that anyone in mzk are seen as the cream of the crop, yah ?.. best of the best kinda thing .. are there any other worldwide crews ard ?.. (spinkingz ?)
the end of the first taisuke set was great, before smurf, he break the song with very style. even without physicx the korean team was fantastic, but yes, i miss he =(, xD MACHINE WAS SICK!!, i think that his set is one of the best, all the moments of this.
lol at 00:50. Japan/Korea were probably the only team who did that, gathering in a circle & probably chanting something. Or I could be wrong & they were just listening to a translator..
lol sprry i dont know which comment ur replying to. i posted so many times on this vid. uh i guess ur talking about kandoll. yea i do see him much either. the last i saw him he was on some korean dream team along w/ Bruse Lee, The End, Snake, and some guy from NEWEST crew. but yea i wish i could c more of him.
"It takes an athlete to breakdance, it takes an artist to bboy" Give credit to born who started doing style in korea for a while :P, gotta hit those beats man
I have no idea how Machine and Born always hit the beats consistently. It never fails to amaze me.
Well the song that starts right at 1:21, after the intro is DJ Format - Lords Of Cardboard
This was a really sick battle!
Both sides were incredible.
I didn't know Johnny Depp bboyed 0:06
Holland, I think all IBE events are held in holland. Its dope to see new younger generation come out, im excited for 2009.
Man, even though Thesis is so young, you would never be able to tell by his dancing. Such confidence and perfection from such a young bboy is amazing!
Great battle. Machine at the end.... mindblowing
No doubt, that guy's so under rated and his footwork is unimaginably swift.
Yeah I saw that one too. The guy from NEWEST crew was Jong Min and apparently he was also part of Expression. They probably just messed up there.
The remix is either done by dj element or dj timbers. The Original song is called Dj Format - Lord of the Cardbord. Enjoy.
No one noticed lil bob (red jacket) comically coming in with Korea and Japan instead of the US team? 0:43
i love how two rival countries with so much history of hatred towards one another grouped together for the sake of art and representing asians. team asia ftw!
You are absolutely right man. Thank you for having a decent grasp on reality, unlike some others on youtube.
My god, I've never heard of machine, but his last set was sooo fucking dope. And damn... Hong 10 with those 1 handed halos...

machine has to be one of the best beat-rockers ever!
Differ is my hero.
Darkness was in IBE 2005 :P but don't expect your fav bboy to be in as specific event, I mean I wish darkness was in this one but when he was in his 25s :P
For me 2008 was one of the bests IBE
Just see the lineup of Japan/Korea, all the stars are all inside, styler, powermover, blowups, you name it.
be involved more, there won't be much hesitation. I can see it happening already. It's not nearly as bad as the 80s-- when corporate greed nearly gutted the scene to oblivion-- but it's still quite a looming threat.

I just notice that Thesis was biting Toyz. lol but they have similar stylez but the ending to his first set is EXACTLY how toyz does his lol. I cant wait to c those two battle.
first song:
Earth dance - Bobby Bryant
both korea/Japan and the US are good in both ways - I am no dancer but every bboy dance their best - so if you are not a dancer, at all, just shut up and watch the video instead of being super-protective of your fav crew.
Are you talking about just this clip or the whole three part video?
I only recall him coming out once in this video, with the jackhammers to the beat.
actually lords of cardboard from dj format is a remix, the originial is that from dj timber
I think Machine has the best backflip to splits I've ever seen.
watching Kazuhiro then Smurf is amazing... like watching 2 tornados
thanks for uploading this BboySoulz
there are some straight raw sets in this battle!
one of the best battles ive ever seen
naw theres a lot from cali.
Machine,lil bob, thesis(i think), smurf, ruen,
very nice way to start the battle two great similar styles thesis and wing
i dont know if great man is in all area. but i do know that Kazuhiro is. and yea ur right. but at least its a step up from ibe 2005 usa team.
lol, why is my comment about bboy Kandoll having amazing footwork given a thumbs down?
I think narumi & shie chan is in the crowd!! I maybe wrong, but it looks like them.Correct me if i'm wrong? Narumi in the white with a camera & shie in a brown/maroon shirt. I know they competed in this ibe against france. That would've have been dope if they battled!!
in agree with you entirely, but the problem with that is who would fund these events if it werent for corporate sponsorship? it may be sad but money does make the world go round.
song at 2:53
poets of rhythm-north carolina
Forreal? When? I BARELY see him anymore, I don't think he's even part of Expression now...
smurf and hong 10 was good, damn!
MZK fest starting Born went out, then it was Katsu, Smurf, Kazuhiro (could be wrong about Kazu), Alien Ness, then you could see Katsu and Born talking about their commando. Haha, thats MZK love...
its just a commando, its like a tag in tag out. im pretty sure more than 500 people in the world have done it.
Damn this battle was tight! I kinda wished Bboy Kandoll (Expression) was there in the, he woulda' killed with his insane footwork. Oh well he's not very well known, but it woulda been nice seeing Snake or Physicx too. Machine, Thesis, and Luigi were killin' it too!
Does anyone know the song starting at 2:53?
That would be cool if dragon from foundnation was in this. He's also from MZK. Would have been cool to see a routine with dragon & taisuke
i love how bboy smurf wears all RED lol
katsu > born commandos at 6:05
made my day
if they were only supposed to take one person from each crew, y did both Katsu and Taisuke compete?
It's funny because it always seems like katsu & born think of each other as rivals. There both in zulu & they both hit beats. U can tell whenever either go in the other seems anxious. Idk i maybe wrong:}-
Machine my favorite ❤
Dude, Taisuke didn't even come out once in this part 1 video, not once. He came out later on in like part 2 or 3, yes around one time.
But as for this video we're commenting under right now, Taisuke did not come out even once, the guy who came out most from Korea
Timber rocked that battle...nasty beats
haha.. yeah, man ..
but it seems that anyone in mzk are seen as the cream of the crop, yah ?.. best of the best kinda thing .. are there any other worldwide crews ard ?..
(spinkingz ?)
the music is so much better than in same battle 2005
most favorite battle
lol you could see at 5:40. Born wanting to battle ness. Like they did at ibe 05
soon as the mc said street masters I almost died ...legendary Miami bboy crew
the end of the first taisuke set was great, before smurf, he break the song with very style.
even without physicx the korean team was fantastic, but yes, i miss he =(, xD
MACHINE WAS SICK!!, i think that his set is one of the best, all the moments of this.
Chill...you can't expect your favourite bboy to be in a specific battle.
ok cuz kazuhiro, katsu, and taisuke are in the same crew so i was confused.
favorite part .. ending. machine killed it.
I like how Youval just shouts a random area code at 3:52 lol.. "The 999"
lol at 00:50. Japan/Korea were probably the only team who did that, gathering in a circle & probably chanting something. Or I could be wrong & they were just listening to a translator..
@BboyMattie man i was looking for machine n kid david 2 but yea this ibe team still beast.
on the usa side u forgot to mention Mijo on the description
BOOM, thank you man =D
USA is really agressive here hahaha
dope battle
gotta love these exhibitions
oh most definitely
if physicx wasn't injury in 2008 man . i'm sure he'll be here in IBE 2008 and showing his crazy Signature
Legit was thinking Physicx would’ve have the biggest applause out of anyone there! His shoulder spin alone would’ve closed the show
Before the MC was like, SPEED IT UP DJ SPEED IT UP DJ
it doesnt matter cause katsu, born are also part or MZK which is an american crew XD
this is amazing!
Youval gets them wrong sometimes..lol..
he did alot at IBE 05' too.
I wish all of the major bboys would show up at IBE every year.
what happened @ 6:57? aw..
hella sick lineup though
He went out like once...
lol sprry i dont know which comment ur replying to. i posted so many times on this vid. uh i guess ur talking about kandoll. yea i do see him much either. the last i saw him he was on some korean dream team along w/ Bruse Lee, The End, Snake, and some guy from NEWEST crew. but yea i wish i could c more of him.
nice beat kill by machine at the end
Taisuke is MZK also
Machine killed that beat at the end.
Legend battle
Can anyone tell me the name of the first song (with the claping) ?
Thanks!
@KnowIdeaxPoppinCRS Haha, no dude, i was just making sure
Nice Luigi, dope.
throwback to when bboying was the shit
oh.. floorgangz is a worldwide crew ?.. but yeah, theyre good, i knw ..
LOL! Lil' Bob went in with Korea/Japan.
Funny guy.
"It takes an athlete to breakdance, it takes an artist to bboy"
Give credit to born who started doing style in korea for a while :P, gotta hit those beats man
nah thesis is like in his 20's.. they were just fucking around in his trailer.
it´s called earth song or something like that
whats the song machine rips apart
@Michie1004 yeah, but did you see the part between usa vs south korea the usa lost so is a unfair match for usa lol
Tyquan was there too ..MZK
No, I don't know its just randomly, I guess bboys that can actually freestyle and have lots of sets, you gotta play with the music.
El primer beat ¿Como se llama?
Machine is on freaking point man!
best bboy vid ever mann hands down!!!!
DAMNN Differ called that at 9:59!!
@megasrd123 even super cr3w has asains of their own: ronnie, do-knock, rockadile and vex
@KnowIdeaxPoppinCRS oops hahahaha sorry" i will repair it
