Yo but for real...I dont know why people think you have to dance a certain way in this dance. Why does how Salah dance make such a big impact with people and they call it tricks. He has musicality, flow and originality. Besides why would you want to look like everyone else or do something that's already been done...
Salah got badly exposed as a preening clown by a true MASTER of the game. Dementia is easily the best locker\popper I have ever seen - totally classical style - the living definition of what locking\popping is all about.
Both dancers brought their style and it was raw. Never though of using a shoe like that Salah is just so versatile wow. Salah wins overral-Dementia wins as far as sweet tuts -2Much
Salah killed that shit. Of course, we do got our Salah haters, and that's ok. Anyway, much respect to both. Salah battled him, while also displaying awesome showmanship at the same time. That's my opinion. I'm entitled to that. The other guy was pretty dope too though.
i aint a poppin fan, but salah always surprises me...he can always put his popping into the song, which is awesome cus its all about the musique...but the other guy did really good also...so watever...
Selah's alright, it is impressive to mix that level of anatomic contortion with Bu steps, but I'm a Dementia fan and this only makes me love him more... I just love his style... Props ro Selah still, but I know way too many Monks that can do that... to my experiences he just looks like a circus performer or a yoga instructor moving to music and as i said - I know a LOT of monks that can do that, so it's not as fresh to me as it probably should be... Biggup to both of them though... Slick show.
@fanaticfire86 yeah, people always hate on salah cause he can do it all, like you said... he entertains, does eye candy, AND he POPS... hate it or love it... he can compete with any dancer... period
Na I agree. Dementia looked like the better dancer here. He's got real good style n flow, especially with the way he moves in an out in and into his Egyptian. Salah is more of an entertainer to me. I've been watchin lots a videos, tryin 2 c how ell he frestyles. He doesn't do much. He concentrates on working the audience. But he does freestyle good.
D showed more variations but all that was the usual shit you always see. Salah came with simple moves which most people have never thought of in popping and that's what gave him the win.
Dementia definitely won, no question. Dementia was on beat and actually dancing. Salah is a has been, he's does the exact same moves every time. Note: just because it looks different doesn't mean it's good.
I liked the shoe bit. Twas funny. When he uses it to futher animate he body wave i thought it was genius. The people who don't like it just prove that geniuses are never understood in their own time.
Yea, then singing abit with the song dramatically and pointing at a the person awkwardly while shimmying/gliding to the left, yea thats popping.... yep.... when dementia is "boogaloo, flowing, tutting, liquid-raving for a split second and throwing robot moves" Salah is considered "winning" by immitating his action, flowing for a bit and impressing the crowd with wierd ass movements... kinda dont look like boogaloo nor flowing...
Mr. Fantastic stole one of Salah's moves on So You Can Dance, the egyptian hand motion thing. It's one thing to move like someone, it's another to steal parts of the act, I guess.
@SuperPluto10 It's good, but he's got horrible duck tuts... But a great popper nonetheless. And Salah, I don't even have to say anything.. But this didn't show his skills off too much.
Get outta here. Oh, he can hit on the hardest and most well known beats of the song.. how amazing. seriously. it just shows knowledge for the song and nice timing. dont judge over a few hits.
Salah is a stronger performer. Way too experienced to be outclassed, just comes down to a matter of who brings it. Bruce... mmmmmmaybe Robert, but a very slim elite group that can shake Salah, not D, not this day
yes they are two different dancers, but they have something in common, getting ate by salah. that vid showes clearly vs acky, that salah has mature moves, and are both new and old. i watched salah vs gucchon, at the UK BBoy WHERE ONE OF THE JUDGES SUGAPOP SAID that salah beat gucchon. If you think u can just a dancer better than sugapop you're just ignorant. i didnt think gucchon got that much of the better of salah if at all ..in BOTB05'
DEM.started off tuttin and salah never new what hit him. Salah never had a chance to warm up DEM should have just kelp tutin till Salah tutted back or taste defeat.all you that what to battle salah better look at this Vid or Salah will kick yo ass. job well done DEM KEEP TUTIN ON EM
salah won,this there is a video of salah IMHO destroying acky. there are better poppers in idea of tech' than salah, however that shit is boring, most of them worry to much about tech than soul. Salah got me into popping , he got me to want to learn it's history.
Yup and 2024 still watching
2020im still here
Two dancers that are unbelievable.
plus they did Cameo justice.
salah dances with musicality and has tricks on top of that. he is just damn good thats why yall hate
nice to see a new angle to this battle and the last round...props
Yeah i was there!! Thats the Boat house at Mc Arthur Park downtown los Angeles !!!
Chuck! How have you been? I miss the LA popping scene a lot. Hope you are well, homie.
dementia actually put up a good show...... i was impressed..... but Salah still remains Legendary
OOOOOO! Great comeback..
This is some fine quality poppin!
Cameo song owns!
Salah is the perfect example of style over form.
A fine battle of two very good dancers.
Dementia is awesome :) tuts for that long XD and it looks good

When he flipped his shoe in the air it was all but over for this other man . 😂😂😂😂
gives you an idea of what I think about locking
In every video of this im totally suprise!!! Salah is pure life and entertainment baby!!
I filmed this.. crazy to see the footage resurface. This was the same day that kmel battled stuntman in the ciphers
putt other footage bro
salah is a monster
Both dancers brought their style and it was raw. Never though of using a shoe like that Salah is just so versatile wow. Salah wins overral-Dementia wins as far as sweet tuts -2Much
2023 any one !
Exactly, 1 of the most hard choice battles i ever seen, Salah and Dementia are my favorites :P , Cant decide :D.
Salah killed that shit. Of course, we do got our Salah haters, and that's ok. Anyway, much respect to both. Salah battled him, while also displaying awesome showmanship at the same time. That's my opinion. I'm entitled to that. The other guy was pretty dope too though.

The fedora hats though!

thanks man im rogert, im colombian i love the poppin, i dance a few but i am onu of the best of Santander what videos you recoment to me ?
@teamstuttgard I do not agree, he always comes with something interesting unlike the other guys. and his moves are perfectly executed, isolation etc.
Ohh 2006
Salah as always 🔥
I was just about to say the same thing. Salah has lots of tricks and he hits the beats but no dancing.
nobody can't dance like salah!
that's different!
i don't wanna say he is do popping or not!!!
but obviously he is a great DANCER!
beautiful
Theres no locking at all in this video. All popping.
D showed more variations but all that was the usual shit you always see. Salah came with simple moves which most people have never thought of in popping and that's what gave him the win.
@jquinnlee
true
@jesscb206 poppin is a dance not just tricks the equivalent of blow up moves so Dementia has this one ..
salah = entertainer but still is good popper
dementia = skills and technique
if you can entertain with skills and technique, you win
what's the names of the songs they dancin off of?
Awesome battle, almost too close to call!
Salah Has a wicked strategy stlyle when it comes to battling
Dementia is pretty tight too.
looks like Dementia brought his A game
KEEP TUTIN ON EM
its a battle, and Salah won it. Cus its all about soul.
salah murdered him. I agree though Mr. Wiggles is something else. Pacman, is solid, too.
Damon frost is God at flowing man, lmao XD
nevermind found it!! For those who wanna know its.
SHAKE YOUR PANTS BY CAMEO
good battle. i think dementia just does alot of tutting thought but it's still awesome but salah mixed it up which is why i think he should of won
New York I believe.
Man, they both are dope!!!!!! Dementia always getsopen and Salah is just ridiculous. Don't think he's all tricks though.........lol
Dementia definitely won, no question. Dementia was on beat and actually dancing. Salah is a has been, he's does the exact same moves every time. Note: just because it looks different doesn't mean it's good.
salah wasn't goofing around its called having fun while dancing.
I agree that beginning it was dementia who had them going, but he fizzled out during the second round.. that was disappointing.
I think the same think bro jazzvec
whats the name from de songs? please
what?!?!dementias tuts are wayy cleaner than salahs
there's no locking in this video!
Um Dementia (white shirt) was the one doing the Egyptian hands and it's not an "original" move. That's like saying someone stole someone's pirouette.
whats the name to this track???
theze a tight battle
dementia was really clean
Anyone know what song this is?
Dementia is such a beast.
I liked the shoe bit. Twas funny. When he uses it to futher animate he body wave i thought it was genius. The people who don't like it just prove that geniuses are never understood in their own time.
On a scale,Dementia 99.5, Salah 99.49. Demtia did less mime and more dancing. He was locked into the beat real tight.
Yea, then singing abit with the song dramatically and pointing at a the person awkwardly while shimmying/gliding to the left, yea thats popping.... yep.... when dementia is "boogaloo, flowing, tutting, liquid-raving for a split second and throwing robot moves"
Salah is considered "winning" by immitating his action, flowing for a bit and impressing the crowd with wierd ass movements... kinda dont look like boogaloo nor flowing...
holy tut b-boy man
what song is this??
Mr. Fantastic stole one of Salah's moves on So You Can Dance, the egyptian hand motion thing. It's one thing to move like someone, it's another to steal parts of the act, I guess.
salah is funny and dance to music... but dementia has the flow & skillz fromm my oponion dementia wins!!
what i wana know is how does salah dance with his shoe that loose so he can flick it off? i'll roll my ankle for sure
judge*
@SuperPluto10 It's good, but he's got horrible duck tuts... But a great popper nonetheless. And Salah, I don't even have to say anything.. But this didn't show his skills off too much.
Get outta here.
Oh, he can hit on the hardest and most well known beats of the song..
how amazing. seriously. it just shows knowledge for the song and nice timing. dont judge over a few hits.
salah is a entertainer. Dementia is a popper. This was a popping battle. Not a street show. Dementia took it.
i dont know about ya'll,, but i want to be entertained. Salah is way nicer than dementia and much more entertaining.
at last who win salah in BBOY summit 2004???
Wow Salah
Salah is a stronger performer. Way too experienced to be outclassed, just comes down to a matter of who brings it. Bruce... mmmmmmaybe Robert, but a very slim elite group that can shake Salah, not D, not this day
Salah spent too much time mocking - Dementia showed sweet skills in his second set
shake your pants by cameo
you.... and don't say you can :D
yes they are two different dancers, but they have something in common, getting ate by salah.
that vid showes clearly vs acky, that salah has mature moves, and are both new and old. i watched salah vs gucchon, at the UK BBoy WHERE ONE OF THE JUDGES SUGAPOP SAID that salah beat gucchon. If you think u can just a dancer better than sugapop you're just ignorant. i didnt think gucchon got that much of the better of salah if at all ..in BOTB05'
Salah reminds me of Charlie Chaplin
who win?? tell me demenita?? salah??
Dementia é um dançarino formidável, um monstro. Sem dúvida ele foi o melhor nessa disputa.
salah is like the clown of popping. goofy ass moves, but insanely good.
Salah would mangle Robert in a battle.
back then he was dope, now hes even better, but if you look closely, he has ducks
i was there =D
salah vs jsmooth was down
i also love the kiddies on a user name like "ipoptehbestfosho" leaving ignorant msg's left and right. Salah is a beast...
Dementia killed Salah in this one. Salah's stints were way shorter than Dementia's and werent as good either.
shake ur pants - by cameo
DEM.started off tuttin and salah never new what hit him. Salah never had a chance to warm up DEM should have just kelp tutin till Salah tutted back or taste defeat.all you that what to battle salah better look at this Vid or Salah will kick yo ass.
job well done DEM
KEEP TUTIN ON EM
salah won,this
there is a video of salah IMHO destroying acky.
there are better poppers in idea of tech' than salah, however that shit is boring, most of them worry to much about tech than soul. Salah got me into popping , he got me to want to learn it's history.
salah is from another world lol
wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
salah
i actually like dementia more cuz he's more funky
