I WAS THERE! Salah, my all time favourite popper got owned by a dancer who doesn't use any tricks.. I would almost say, pure dance from the heart. BRUCE, hands down!

alguien me puede decir el nombre de las canciones!!!.... the name of the songss of the video??.... pleaseee!! y pfff q viva y poppin!!! y claro Salah y Bruce!! q son inigualables en el baile!!!
U can see that Bruce has much respect for Salah (and vice versa) which he shows every now and then by cheering Salah when he comes on strong. But perhaps the clearest is @ 3:28 when he is about to do one of Salahs trademark moves "lifting his shirt to reveal his insane stomach as if he was only to wipe the sweat from his forehead" but then doesnt finish the move ending his turn while making a statement and suggesting to Salah to keep strickly with in the context of poppin.
i notice neither of them did any diss moves at each other. It's a sign of respect for one another i hope. Keep the rival going. you both are great. BRUCE GOT THIS ONE. I score it 10 for bruce. 8.5 for Salah!
Bruce won cuz he has more technicality and salah lost well hes an entertainer the judges vote on who popped better not on who could entertain the crowd salah is still sick with it but bruce won cuz he does some crazy moves which i bet almost no one couuld possibly do unless the practiced a lot
This is the best battle i've ever seen unless someone can prove me wrong. I dont think Salah was doing his best but Bruce was fantastic! Their both my favourite dancers. Salah is my favourite but Bruce destroyed his winning spree in this match. 1st song - Bar kays-Traffic Jammer 2nd song - Debbie Deb - When I Hear Music
Bruce is very good with coordination. Salah seemed not as tight as Bruce. But Salah got something else: artistic and creative moves that show wit and taste.
But u know, when u see Salah perform that u are goin to see something amazing and original and also all the other poopers do exactly the same thing they just add a little extra move and they say they are original..im sorry but Salah does things that you would never expect to see in a popping battle and he makes it look so cool!
Salah, as I've seen, is pretty hit and miss. A lot of the time his performances aren't fantastic. I mean, he's sick, but the majority of what I've seen doesn't really show his best. Bruce killed it, without a doubt.
+Raed Alotaibi I would dtill put salah over but bruce did destroy in the two battles that they had. Bruce is crazy though. My top 3 are 1. Salah 2. Kite 3. Bruce
SlickRick4EVER I think salah started in the early 90’s. It’s pretty amazing. There’s videos of salah and Bruce being judged together and just being friends. They’re both amazing.
theshow1234 that is dead on Bruce will kill it when he is more experienced, i love his accuracy with timing also more tuts more strobing and he will have the total package
i like bruce's style and i envy it to death, but i do agree with you in the area about him being commercial. his popping style is more of what you would see on MTV, but it's still cool. peace
SICK BATTLE!! JUST THE SICKEST BATTLE EVER!! It's like Jordan and Kobe going at it. Everytime I watch this video It seems like there moves looks better and better. I like them both but Salah Lost this one. We need more videos of Bruce!
Anyone knows what's the name of the first song please ? Thumbs Up for these two awesome dancers, Salah wasn't in a good day though, but i'm a big fan of Bruce, love his moves his rythm his style. PEACE to you all :)
the important is not who is the winner but damnn, that was a sick battle. both great. btw, could anyone remember me the tittle of the second song please?!
Yea I agree with you... Bruce had a totally different style. Salah didn't pull out some of the moves that he should have to win. All good though.. was a good battle.
how could you tell if you've seen salah's back almost all the time? it was a tight battle. Bruce is very funky and has great moves, his waves are one of a kind. And salah is an excellent popper that uses many tricks, mostly because he's not just a dancer, he's an artist.
Whats with the audience in cheering for Bruce when he didn't do much that was special -__- Like when Salah did his hat move that was just crazy and like no seemed impressed! Like wow these people don't know what good popping is... But overall great battle! :) These two rocked this show hard! Go Salah! :)
I don't agree that Salah is the superior dancer at all, i used to love Salah, but now, his stuff doesn't impress me, he does the same stuff in all his dance battles, with Bruce, he is completely versatile, every move links with flow, originality and best of all.. Style! Bruce is by far the best dancer around and Salah didn't see it coming and LOST, respect to my main man Bruce Ykanji
Sorry bro, Salah got shamed!! Salah is incredible at what he does, but i would say half of it isn't even dancing! He does a circus act, I mean swingin a hat around your body is not dancing, i see a battle recently of him, and he pulled a load cloth out his mouth!! That is a circus act, not a dance performence!
Salah is boring? dude, Salah can do everything, but no1 can do what Salah does !! Big respect to Bruce (he´s one of the best 5 popper from the world, his footwork is sick). Just a few poppers can battle him but just that, never defeat him. Salah has the gift ...
Bro, bruce is not new!! Salah is new, Bruce has been doing dance since he was young boy, Salah has only been doing it for about 7 years give or take, Salah is not the best, he is good, but not the best, Bruce is hands down the better dancer, Salah hands down the best circus perfomer
Salah & Bruce are best friends, so this wasn´t a battle for them. This two guys are in the best 5 popper from the world. Was like the backyard bbq on sunday; no matter who won, only enjoy them ;-)
For total originality...Bruce by far..with no tricks...Bruce...flow and constant movement...bruce...i love Salah, but Bruce is by far the better dancer..Bruce takes the win
both are excellent. as a matter of fact, bruce could be labeled as the next up and coming SALAH. the difference? experience. just look at the videos, salahs been competing for years and years, and has a whole repitoire of moves to call upon. bruce is awesome. very technically sound in many of his moves, and has a wide variety. but not as wide a variety as salah. and the competition experience of salah, in appealing to the crowd and his timing with the music is why is rates #1.
tHe was better that day but overall he doesnt yet have the variety of moves and crowd appeal of salah. That will come as he competes more Bruce hits hard though, want to see more tuts and dimestopping for variety and pop the head!
@GabrielMuayThai And that's exactly because I like him and prefer him over most others. That's also exactly why you cannot really say he is "terribly overrated". Bruce was also great, in his own way. It's hard to decide and I wished I could say "both are equally good" without sounding lame. But if I really had to choose, I'd pick Salah as the winner of this battle (VERY close descision!) even if that makes me a noob that overrates Salah in your eyes.
man im tired of people saying that Salah is good. yo. dig it. yeah he's good, but he does the same moves every god damn time.! it pisses me off that newbies new to popping think that salah is ACTUALLY popping in a POPPING BATTLE. he does tricks kiddies, not popping. get it right and your facts. salah is a circus clown and thats it. he's an amature. for newbies out there, salah has no taste to teh beat. you have to ride the beat, freak the beat, and feel the beat. not just do tricks that impress.
that was FUCKIN' INSANE!! i think this was a little bit more in bruce's favour (unfortunately) both INCREDIBLE poppers, but i think if salah would have put more of an effort in his first round (which he definitely has in him) then he could have beaten ykanji. maybe not by a landslide, but still would have beaten him. salah remains king. but i have to say this is an amazing battle.
everyone does the same moves as they do all the time its there moves. you try making moves and forgeting all the old moves WHy? you dont need to dancing isnt the moves its the dancers ablity to express old or new moves. and salah doesnt do the same exact moves he put in different moves but mixes in his signature moves. signatures are always used to show style and flash(and win the battle easier/faster)
In America, there's a term that was coined when one basketball player dunks in another basketball player's face... "Getting shitted on." Ladies and gentlemen, Salah, who I like a lot, got shit on. Respect to both these dudes. Salah is great. I don't think I've seen him loose before this clip, but this one was clear. And also respect to all you cats who understand the nuance of the dance enuff to judge this one. Shit. On.
My theory is that the crowd was biased. You could clearly tell. EVERYONE that I've shown this video to, including people who have no idea WHO Salah is, because I don't want a biased judgement, says that Salah clearly should've won. Bruce was dope as HELL, don't get me wrong, but Salah shoulda won. Whenever I tell the people I show this video to, that he lost, they are ALWAYS surprised.
to me, dance is first and foremost about expressing, not impressing. And btw not every so-called dancer has his own groove, many many dancers lack any kind of groove. In my opinion you don't just dance by doing movements... and entertaining and dancing is so not the same... of course you are entertained by Bruce as well but if the whole point of your performance is to show off, that sucks.
you cant really say what a real dancer does or is, because anything u do is a real dance, its up to you and what you want to do to the music. but if you watch salah in any com he tells a story and yes he does finished moves and yes i get tired of seein the same things sometimes but the skill level to even the same moves that they both do no com and the flow of the center of gravity as well
I didn´t mean that. i was just asking why there´s not many black dancers, that´s all. and yes, they started hip hop, that´s why i asking that. it colud be the same cuestion if i say " why there´s not many black hockey players?" or " white ppl in olimpic games ( like long jump or runnig)" i just wondering why, that´s all
That video was taken in Düsseldorf/Germany. Bruce and Salah are known there for years and many of the people there took classes by both of them. Both are very resprected dancers(!) in the german dance scene so i doubt anyone was really biased, just prefered Bruce's style over Salah's and i think that's ok.
Man, we watchin' the same video? Bruce was spinnin on his toes on one foot...and then on two, perfectly. That's hard. Salah's move, while sweet, doesn't really match up to that. On two hands and feet...idk man. Though, both of them shoulda got more noise for different moves, that sure as hell wasn't their best. I respect what you think tho man. Peace.
From an amateurish but unprejudiced standpoint, Salah's moves impacted me more than Bruce's, though many are annuciating that Bruce won. I feel Salah's just more flexible and less rigid prior to this battle. If anyone can get an affirmation to the REAL scores, it would be helpful. As for the closure, Salah obviously took the lead. Both rock, but Salah = wow.
When i started popping all i did was basically "power moves" if i was using breaking terms to say. but then after watching countless battles and getting advice from pros .. the way to win battles is not through Power " salah" but through style and hitting beats using some power moves with them" being just technical poppers isn't good enough..
the judges probABLY seen all bruce's moves what does that mean? honestly if its smoothness;salah wins number of creative moves:salah tricks:salah bruce is just new and has mystery factor to us but put all his on here we all will get used to seeing his moves. but he wont get recognition like salah because is the best. but bruce is good.
I think both dancer were great but, I really think Salah didn't come hard this time b/c he felt he had it in a bag. I mean to be truthful Bruce is nice but he's NO Bionic man or J smooth. Therefore Salah figured he could beat him without turnin up the heat, but it didn't go as planned. Much respect to both dancers!!!!
he uses his moves in every battle. how many times have you seen the tissue come out, or watch him go into a hollow back, or flip his shoe up into his hand, or roll his hat down his arm. he is very repetitve in some respect. not taking credit away from him but. like i said he is unique and original in that no body does what he does but that doesnt take away repetitiveness...
@taga5000 I c y u say bruce took it. But the thing is when you view people from behind the look bad. And SALAH !!!!! has a few moves that would destroy anybody. So they should put SALAH and Bruce in a battle against david elsewhere and Phillip Chbeeb!!!! battle of 4ever!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think what happens with salah is he has a certain set of moves he's going to do in each round for example his first round he was planning on doing that hat trick etc. where as i think bruce more or less freestyles and collaberates with the music and just dances instead of doing set moves.
So a persons position on the ladder of skill defines who that person is? Tell me what a "True" hip hop style is. Salah is strictly pop and lock as well as isolations, and Bruce is more funk and boogaloo. I see where you're coming from because Salah is on the extreme side of pop and lock.

Probably one of the better one on one battles Salah has been in. It's evenly matched in this footage. Dope ish...
10 years later, still Bruce! #ykanji
ho is the DJ in playing in the blattle? just thename of the music dont matter. i need now ho made this great remix.
great batle!!!!
Bruce still heavily underrated.
DOPE battle of two incredible dancers!!
U can see that Bruce has much respect for Salah (and vice versa) which he shows every now and then by cheering Salah when he comes on strong.

Bruce won the entire Popping contest in this..
he is the man!
but all of them are the best
Salah Is One Of The Best And Bruce Demolished Him! GOOO BRUCE!!!
Bruce was feelin that first set, silky smooth.
i notice neither of them did any diss moves at each other. It's a sign of respect for one another i hope. Keep the rival going. you both are great. BRUCE GOT THIS ONE. I score it 10 for bruce. 8.5 for Salah!
Bruce won cuz he has more technicality and salah lost well hes an entertainer the judges vote on who popped better not on who could entertain the crowd salah is still sick with it but bruce won cuz he does some crazy moves which i bet almost no one couuld possibly do unless the practiced a lot
This is the best battle i've ever seen unless someone can prove me wrong.
I dont think Salah was doing his best but Bruce was fantastic!
Their both my favourite dancers. Salah is my favourite but Bruce destroyed his winning spree in this match.
1st song - Bar kays-Traffic Jammer
2nd song - Debbie Deb - When I Hear Music
yo salah and bruce are ones of the best original poppers around now! So great battle!
nice to see some more of bruce popping
First time I saw salah being so full of being a popper rather than a trickster. :)
The hands at 4:45 couldn't be anymore perfect.
Bruce is very good with coordination. Salah seemed not as tight as Bruce. But Salah got something else: artistic and creative moves that show wit and taste.
All I can Say is OH MY GOD unbelievable, best battle ever.
But u know, when u see Salah perform that u are goin to see something amazing and original and also all the other poopers do exactly the same thing they just add a little extra move and they say they are original..im sorry but Salah does things that you would never expect to see in a popping battle and he makes it look so cool!
Bruce is the best to ever pop, period.
Salah, as I've seen, is pretty hit and miss. A lot of the time his performances aren't fantastic. I mean, he's sick, but the majority of what I've seen doesn't really show his best.
Bruce killed it, without a doubt.
Bruce Ykanji the best EVER and he won this battle sure
+Raed Alotaibi I would dtill put salah over but bruce did destroy in the two battles that they had. Bruce is crazy though. My top 3 are 1. Salah 2. Kite 3. Bruce
Well, you gotta understand that Bruce's been popping since late 1980s! I think Bruce has got around 7-9 years more than Salah.
SlickRick4EVER I think salah started in the early 90’s. It’s pretty amazing. There’s videos of salah and Bruce being judged together and just being friends. They’re both amazing.
@@alebarajas3045 Salah is a clown
@@pamir-alichortv7291 makes sense since being a clown incorporates miming just like popping does as well. All related
Bruce took it imo. From 3:14 to 3:25 nobody can survive this.
salah always change his style ..but i like his style in 2006
Bruce got some crazy thing man
theshow1234 that is dead on Bruce will kill it when he is more experienced, i love his accuracy with timing also more tuts more strobing and he will have the total package
i like bruce's style and i envy it to death, but i do agree with you in the area about him being commercial. his popping style is more of what you would see on MTV, but it's still cool.
peace
SICK BATTLE!! JUST THE SICKEST BATTLE EVER!! It's like Jordan and Kobe going at it. Everytime I watch this video It seems like there moves looks better and better. I like them both but Salah Lost this one. We need more videos of Bruce!
Bruce vs Walid is a Legendary Battle.

bruce KILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLEDDDDDDD
try to listen Debbie Deb's song on RUclips, i find it not so rymthmical as in the video.
They were both on point. Bruce's spin at 3:20 was the spotlight for me, but they both killed it
Anyone knows what's the name of the first song please ?
Thumbs Up for these two awesome dancers, Salah wasn't in a good day though, but i'm a big fan of Bruce, love his moves his rythm his style.
PEACE to you all :)

Yea I agree with you... Bruce had a totally different style. Salah didn't pull out some of the moves that he should have to win. All good though.. was a good battle.
wow, i think salah is the best popper ive seen but actually theres more, both SICK!!!!!
how could you tell if you've seen salah's back almost all the time? it was a tight battle. Bruce is very funky and has great moves, his waves are one of a kind. And salah is an excellent popper that uses many tricks, mostly because he's not just a dancer, he's an artist.
Whats with the audience in cheering for Bruce when he didn't do much that was special -__-
Like when Salah did his hat move that was just crazy and like no seemed impressed! Like wow these people don't know what good popping is...
But overall great battle! :) These two rocked this show hard! Go Salah! :)
oooh la lah
Bruce el magnifico, el presidente, el che, el everything LOL
Bruce est tout puissant tout simplement !!!!
I don't agree that Salah is the superior dancer at all, i used to love Salah, but now, his stuff doesn't impress me, he does the same stuff in all his dance battles, with Bruce, he is completely versatile, every move links with flow, originality and best of all.. Style! Bruce is by far the best dancer around and Salah didn't see it coming and LOST, respect to my main man Bruce Ykanji
Sorry bro, Salah got shamed!! Salah is incredible at what he does, but i would say half of it isn't even dancing! He does a circus act, I mean swingin a hat around your body is not dancing, i see a battle recently of him, and he pulled a load cloth out his mouth!! That is a circus act, not a dance performence!
Salah is boring? dude, Salah can do everything, but no1 can do what Salah does !! Big respect to Bruce (he´s one of the best 5 popper from the world, his footwork is sick). Just a few poppers can battle him but just that, never defeat him. Salah has the gift ...
Bro, bruce is not new!! Salah is new, Bruce has been doing dance since he was young boy, Salah has only been doing it for about 7 years give or take, Salah is not the best, he is good, but not the best, Bruce is hands down the better dancer, Salah hands down the best circus perfomer
they are both great. bruce is more technical dancer and has more to his game. salah excels in what he does no doubt though!!
whats the name of the second song on this video??
Salah & Bruce are best friends, so this wasn´t a battle for them. This two guys are in the best 5 popper from the world. Was like the backyard bbq on sunday; no matter who won, only enjoy them ;-)
that spin thingy that bruce does at 0:30 is so fuckn hectic
For total originality...Bruce by far..with no tricks...Bruce...flow and constant movement...bruce...i love Salah, but Bruce is by far the better dancer..Bruce takes the win
It's official Bruce won against Salah because he made it to the finals vs Kid Boogie and won the championship
both are excellent. as a matter of fact, bruce could be labeled as the next up and coming SALAH. the difference? experience. just look at the videos, salahs been competing for years and years, and has a whole repitoire of moves to call upon. bruce is awesome. very technically sound in many of his moves, and has a wide variety. but not as wide a variety as salah. and the competition experience of salah, in appealing to the crowd and his timing with the music is why is rates #1.
Bruce the best... What a move.
i hate to say this but Bruce destroyed him...way more funkier than Salah...but the only way you can beat Salah by throwing him some serious funk...
tHe was better that day but overall he doesnt yet have the variety of moves and crowd appeal of salah. That will come as he competes more Bruce hits hard though, want to see more tuts and dimestopping for variety and pop the head!
bruce killed it mann!!! jyeuh
do know where you can find the instrumental?
Le battle où tu peu pas nommée un perdant
Thats some funky shit NICE!!!!
omg that spin was 2 crazy..
you know, I never thought id say this but salah got owned...
salah is still dope a fuck though. bruce is amazing in this video.

what's the second track in this clip?
@taga5000 I c y u say bruce took it. But the thing is when you view people from behind the look bad. And SALAH !!!!! has a few moves that would destroy anybody. So they should put SALAH and Bruce in a battle against david elsewhere and Phillip Chbeeb!!!! battle of 4ever!!!!!!!!!!!!
i think what happens with salah is he has a certain set of moves he's going to do in each round for example his first round he was planning on doing that hat trick etc. where as i think bruce more or less freestyles and collaberates with the music and just dances instead of doing set moves.
So a persons position on the ladder of skill defines who that person is?
Tell me what a "True" hip hop style is. Salah is strictly pop and lock as well as isolations, and Bruce is more funk and boogaloo.
I see where you're coming from because Salah is on the extreme side of pop and lock.
