Some people don't know the true essence of what house music really is... It's not just about steps... Or new steps.. Or step combinations that are practiced over and over again..... One dimensional minds posting negative comments about Ejoe or thinking that Atazahan won simply have no clue.... House music is about love and conversations on the dance floor.. It's about LISTENING TO THE MUSIC AND VOCALS.. IT'S ABOUT MUSICALITY.... Atazahan was great... But Ejoe has all the elements of house covered , inside and out.... Anybody who can't see that need to study up on what house really is and learn the history of it....
Omg shhh with your old school mindset. This is utter nonsense that you're preaching. Atazahan had the steps, was on beat and did not repeat moves. Get your cataract checked out
+Da Truth , You are clueless and know nothing about house culture... Like i stated in my first comment.. Atazahan was great but Ejoe has all of the elements of house covered... Which is what you simply know nothing about.... Do some homework young man before you comment.. I'm not gonna tell you to get your cataracts checked... You are just blind. ...
@@chenzointhamix you Said it all. Those people and I included need to learn that there is more than the steps and alodat. If they don't get it they are lost forever. Someone has to be limited to not see that Ejoe is way above than atazhan .
chenzointhamix right .all the frantic moves and steps mean nothing if they dont make sense. Like someone with a huge or limited vocabularly incessantly speaking but making no sense.
Nothing new under the sun. Bboys and House dancers approach to music is different and the way these new folks are once again commenting on House dance is just reminiscent of the same convos in the early to mid 80's when the house clubs were being bombarded with the bboys and hip hop dancers.
@@chenzointhamix if you want to dance, feel the music, then go do that at a club that plays house music. This is a competition apparently. At these types of events, its all about what the judges are looking for and of course everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but what matters the most in this case is the judge's opinion.
Ejoe back in the days was so explosive and creative it was insane. Now as dancer we have to care of our bodies and joints so we can enjoy dancing for as long as possible . Ejoe is doing the right thing for his body by going with flow. But if this was Ejoe 20 years ago we would have seen an acrobatic genius on the floor.
When Ejoe battles, he never dances like he's trying to win, he dances like he's just having fun at a club dancing in a circle while the other dancer is pulling out all their moves trying to win. If you've seen other Ejoe videos, you see a lot of moves he does that you didn't see in this battle. I don't think he cares if he wins or loses, he's just having fun. He also has nothing to prove anymore, he already put his footprint on this whole house dance scene before some of these dancers were even born.
That doesn't mean he won because he's old lmao. Dumb comment. Ejoe died here. Stop
@@datruth2111 Did you ever once hear me write that Ejoe should have won based on this battle ??? So you're the one with the dumb comment!!! good bye!!
@@datruth2111 you probably a suburban white kid who never been to an underground club in your life
1st song:Kodjo Manoo
2nd song:Shout-N-out Loud.
Ejoe becomes the music - he is the essence of “house”....
Ejoe didn't do much but in my opinion what he did showed more structure.I clearly understand that people have a personal opinion on this dance but I think what dictates any dancer is capturing the moment with precise movement that flows with the music.Atazhan has potential but I dont think he reached his peak yet??I think the judges didn't like the forced movement??He is not smooth like many dancers but when he finds his lane he will be a problem.I am not saying he has to be like Ejoe,I am saying he needs to flow with the music alittle more gracefully.
You are totally right ....Atazhan is pretty good .....But The" forced movement|" tryng to showcase too much
EJOE said it.... COME ON MAN... how Atazhan beat Sonya leaves me dumbfounded ... he was all over the place and none of his moves even when he battled Kwame were tuned with the music.. just power moves and high energy difficult moves to wow the crows... when the crowd gets swayed by those moves and gets impressed it puts pressure on the competition to wow the crowd in order to win which is what happened to Sonya and Kwame... EJOE taught the crowd and Atazhan that this is house.. not bboy dancing.. when the dj slowed the tempo and music notes you could easily tell Atazhan had no idea how to house dance and kept doing practiced moves that went in no way with the music.. and he looked lost and out of his element.. that's why EJOE said... come on man.. Thank you EJOE for reminding people house is a feeling, its spiritual... that's why you're the greatest.. Love you EJOE
Yupppp totally bboy breaking moves..not house dancing..up 2the ppl who put him in that category..now the game has changed..now they think theres old moves and new moves..if u have your own style..your moves r never considered the old style 😉😆
I partially agree with you. I think Athazan has an amazing talent, a huge vocabulary and I feel like he actually can listen to the music.... the guy seriously needs to relax though, needs to stop trying to impress, stop packing as many moves as possible in each round. I feel like if he takes a step back and stops thinking every battle is for his life, he might be great. Yes, he has bboy moves and attitude but I don't think that is bad if he learns how to tune in... look at all the dancers bringing jazz, contemporary and modern dance to the table who still flow and make it house... I think Athazan can do the same at some point in the future
Ejoe reminding us of the importance of good form.
A message to Ejoe Wilson, Shan S, Caleef, and others that are within my generation of house, which is early 90's when the relevance of house was and STILL stands that House is a state of mind. When you enjoy House, not as a contest where you win or lose simply because YOU ARE HOUSE!!!!!! I caught a saying today that will stand the test of time like the ones that I just named as well as myself and my love of House: "What is in me, can't NO man take from me!!!!!" I thank you for being living proof of that. I thank you for proving because of your love of house, you haven't become obsolete only becoming perfect like finely aged wine. I appreciate your commitment, your talents, and most of YOU!!!!!!!!! Keep up the good work!!!!!!!! All of you!!!!!
Word!!!
MOP TOPS 4EVUH!!!!
Ejoe is so smooth and graceful. He beat this kid without going out of first gear!
Respect to Atazhan! Both dope af
France , Japan and other countries are too battle driven. They have this B Boy mentality that they bring to House. Before you learn how to dance, just dance. Be driven by the love of the music before you attack the music like a soldier in war. Go Ejoe! Go!
amazing…ejoe's a sense of unity with music…
Atazhan was way too focused on busting moves and almost zero to no interaction and passion with the music and the audience. Like the battle ultimately is about the people feeling something. You would think they would figure this out but no. LOL Ejoe got moves, playfulness intuitiveness and charisma. Period.
Joe Old school that's how we Danced Growing up
BOTH DANCERS KILLED
So so 🔥
Ejoe won this. Its all bout the flava
Le niveau d’insolence d’Ejoe😱
- « You win or you lose? »
- « Come On Maan... »
J’étais pas pret🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ah tu as capté aussi.
It is the same comme quand Tony declare a : I maybe old but not obsolete "
Plus serieusement passé un niveau de grade ,Iui tout comme les OG comme shan S limite se rabaisse en participant a des battle avec des jeunaux qui dans leur têtes " croivent " les dépasser
L exemple de Atazhan est d'école
D' où le fait de la réponse a la question u win or you lose.
Pfff comme Sadat- Fuck that
Common man...Fuck that MDR.
Stephane Ogandaga Jsuis pas houseur jpense que vu le spirit et l’atmosphère que met ejoe dans sa danse, il était difficile à prendre ce jour là.
Les steps ne sont pas tout!
Atazhan was AMAZING, but he should've said lose.
Okkk soo in my observation atazhan is battling..this is not really the house music dancing most ppl see In clubs or at house music parties..Ejoe is dancing 4the love of house music..Atazhan is here for the battle and competition..they probably shouldn't be in the same category 🤷♀️🤷♂️ if u mute the music and watch it seems like they r listening to different music.
Well said!! I don't think Ejoe should even be battling anymore. He should judge or just do showcases. He doesn't have anything to prove and these young dancers love to be able to say that they took down a legend even if they aren't in their prime anymore.
That was amazing ✨✨✨✨
athazan got better compared to 2 years ago 🤙
both killed it, but I just like the black guys style more. Being from Chicago I love it more simple and a groove as apposed to trick or top rocking. Just step and kick and make it look fun and funky. that's what he did you ask me.
why?????
4 years after watching this for the first time, I can say that MMA contests is less hypocrite than dance battles : youngest and most talented always win in MMA. In SDF, has been judges always vote for their has been friends. The system of SDF vote should be radically changed.
atazhan ia all over the place no smoothness at all
I see here "steps vs groove and feelin"
My religion is Ejoe.
Some of y’all don’t understand the culture .An og can’t lose unless they get absolutely smoked lol and that ain’t happen here .More-so respectful than biased,you gotta work for that win .
At least they played real soulful, HOUSE music...EJoe doing his thing for 30 years...?! He influenced all the kids...one of the coolest, most decent dudes from that early 90s NYC scene...
close battle. but I guess Ejoe took the first two rounds. he flows so well with those kinds of music
First of all, I'm sure Ejoe is a legend of house field.
I always feel when I see Ejoe's moving. Ejoe is don't use full energy whenever do matching with other dancers.
Just I guessed. BUT. definitely, his moving is bigger as time goes by.
Anyway, I always believe his dance. IMO! From. South Korea.
Whats the name of the first track!
but Atazhan killed the third round.
footwork at 2:43 to the cymbal.. shiiieeaatt
Old boyz are genius, and designers of STEP. But come on? Time to pass the torch. #19sweetfeet
They will... Only to worthy opponents... Ejoe forever!
Dope
SOMEBOOOOOODDDDYYYYYYY LAST SONG ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! POR VAVOR
ruclips.net/video/RnmNXRG4N-E/видео.html here bro
how do judge challenges and challengers work?
2nd song?
Lood feat Donell Rush - Shout N Out MAW 0008 1996
Last song please 😊
ruclips.net/video/RnmNXRG4N-E/видео.html here michael
Atazhan was robbed of the win. His steps are neat and clean, you can choreograph a class to his HOUSE steps. He had so many combinations how could the judges not see that!
I agree he was lit
This is exactly why he lost. House is a feel, not steps to choreograph to. His jack seem a bit force, and his movement seem force to catch the beat. He was pressing.
Nepotism, why else.
Anyone know that third track?
ruclips.net/video/RnmNXRG4N-E/видео.html here bro
Exactly, that 3rd track is 🔥🔥🔥Turn it on by Mark Pritchard.
Atazhan is the REVELATION od this SDF, Dinausor Edition !
EJoe represents real 100% house stepping like so many other of the new generation using 40% house stepping and the rest is breakdance moves cart wheels flips and popping moves and other show off footsteps that not house stepping there's your answer!!
Ejoe god mode is just unfair
атажан 100%
Ejoe smoked him. The yt kid is of best and is lookin crazy out there 🤦🏽♀️ it’s an insult Ejoe…
imagine these guys judging les twins,waydi,rubix etc.. xD
I don't understand this decision. Lot's of respect for Ejoe. He made, in his time, House Dance evolved a lot. But House Dance evolved so much after and without him. Ejoe is just a relic nowaday. ATAZHAN IS WITHOUT CONTEST THE WINNER OF THIS ONE.
Atazhan rape him ....even this shit is bout...
👌👌👌
Ejoe just lost ! The third round, he was just ridiculous...
Atazhan wins .
smh...
it doesnt help the art to keep having rigged competition.
there needs to be a series with different judges and organizations.
atazhan have to win this !😕😅
judge what's wrong with you? Ejoy is a legend, but won Atazhan
Isn't somebody supposed to get served?
whaat?? Atazhan won !
My opinion, i say Atazhan took this battle due to his complex footwork and flow. I have respect for Ejoe and being a huge figure in the House Dance community but allow some new gen to win, just like Frankie J's battle with Yugson.
dancing isn't just athleticism... its about musicality and soul as well.. what most young dancers dont realize... doing cool tricks vs feeling it and making people feel you.
@@jahfreedom01 In this vid, clearly people are feeling both dancers. When i posted this, it was just a matter of my own opinion, just as much as everyone elses including the crowd and the judges. I maybe 3-4 years into the competitive house dance scene but i do know that if i can personally feel that individual's style then of course im goin to praise and earn points from me.
If you want to dance and feel music, then go to the clubs that play House. I notice in the competitive dance scene, itll only get you far if you have put in time and a reputation (big name, Meech, Orb, Ejoe, etc...). Im kool off that superficial bullshit. That's why i dont like dance competitions in general.
At the end of the day, it's just a matter of people's opinions.
@@jahfreedom01 and speakin of athelticism, then you should be pointing out Frankie J's, Hiro's, and Meech's flips. I seen them be doing things that competitive Bboys be doin at jams. And those guys still win so you tell me what's sup with that.
do you have atazhan's channel?
Ejoe should never have won this. Sure he's a legend in the game and has musicality, culture on so on ; but what ppl are advocating are that we vote for dancers who have been there since the beginning and we should aspire to dance something like them. So anyone who is at the forefront of moving the dance form on like Atazhan, , Mamson, Perla, Toyin,Washinton...etc forget that they bring new moves which are technical and rhythmical because Ejoe don't do it, so it can't be right.
I remember Ejoe was trying to bring some kung-fu , ape like flavour to the dance which is fine but things move on and frankly no one cared to replicate it. Sure it was original and so were the moves created by somewhat younger dancers coming through when he went his own way.
if this this Summerdance is a legends in the game battle lets call it that and get the pioneers to battle it out; i'd watch it cos Brian Green still has it for me. Just sayin!!
giantnrsair1 exactly.
Good comment! You're right when you mentioned Washington. The dude is no joke and I think he's under the radar in the house dance scene because you don't see him that much, but that kid got footwork and acrobatic moves that are sick. I don't think he really has any recent videos that I know of. I'd be lying if I didn't admit trying to steal a couple of his moves, but I ain't trying that back flip that he does!!! Lol
Bye participa en los que no sean tus eventos dance forever fraude estas estancado en tu evento que realizan ustedes mismo sale a bailar en otros solo hay videos que solo en estos eventos bailas mientras otros bailan en muchos y mejores
Ejoe was dope back in the days, Atazhan won. No way EJoe won.
wtf Ejoe should have lost. He bascially did the same old steps...
All the time
SDF is biased! No way Ejoe won this one
So biased. Ejoe is cocky when he shouldn't be. He has his moments but he's also outdated with the dance. And it's cringe watching him trying to hit a beat. He got killed here. Summer dance has to stop this cheating man
boring
