Krump Kings Tour - Sydney
April 12th 2007 04:22
Hey Guys its Chux, Just gonna show you the review for the Krump Kings tour when it came down to Australia. I posted the same one on moob, but had to do some editing, so here's the raw, straight from my mind version.
Krump Kings was phenomenal. Can i say that before we start?
Not phenomenal as in aliens landing on earth and making contact.
More like phenomenal in say, those aliens knowing secrets of space travel and teaching us all some stuff that we just didn’t know before.
Change Aliens to Tight Eyez and space travel to Krump Dancing and you’ve got it right there.
A few performances preceded Krump Kings, Psalms came out to do a showcase, as well as an onstage freestyle showcase, which I was happy to be a part of. Caramell came out and did their thing as well.
Now enter the Krump Kings. Instead of a straight out show at first, they decided to call out 3 of Sydney’s finest krumpers for a battle with the eyez family, as well as 2 female krumpers to take the stage.
Anyway, The battle starts. The energy was amazing at this point. 10 Security guards holding the crowd back as we cheer and go nuts at the battle taking place. I’ll admit I have a couple of issues about the 3 people Sydney chose, namely that, can I just say that out of the so called 3 of Sydney's finest... there was only one good krumper there. The others were wack. I'm not just saying that because Scrappy is my boy and he's in my crwew, but he was the only raw talent there. It should've been him, bojla, and either me or johnny K vs the Krump Kings. Instead we got 1 good krumper and 2 wack dudes. Anyway.
Workshops were good and did a lot for the Sydney Krump scene. That being said, I know I'm gonna be seeing wack dudes all year biting Krump Kings moves and not realising that originality is key.
Highlight of the night was the session. All the people who had a name for themselves in the Sydney krump scene.... and a few who didnt... were in that circle and going off as the Eyez family watched from the stage and made commentary. I did a couple of sets myself, hyped up by tight eyez himself as I krumped my way through that circle. I’ve talked about the energy like 10 times already but whatever it was before, was nothing compared to the energy in that circle.
Finished the night off with some inspirational speeches by Big Tight Eyez himself, then headed off to recuperate and rest up. If you are a Krumper frlom Sydney, and missed out... I almsot feel sorry for you.

I know one of the guys that came out to battle.
I'm saying that when tight eyez asked our 3 best krumpers to come out, those guys shouldn't have come out.
Not saying i dont respect them as dancers or that i dont respect their style. Just that their skill levels aren't as developed for them to be repping sydney to the eyez family especially.
