The Crew Formerly Known as The Phillippines

going through it rn. real ones know what’s up. don’t @us 😔

HHI 2 ✅ 8th in the world🌎 First and foremost I want to thank my crew for trusting me throughout this hectic hell of a journey. Scratching our US set and scrambling to finish the world’s version was a difficult task that you two made infinitely easier. Thank you for putting up with my craziness and for being a great support system. You guys are some of the most talented, hard working, and absolutely stupid dancers I know, would not have been 8th in the world without you guys🫂power of friendship forever😤 Thank you as always to the Hyphen collective. You guys really put the fun into this comp and I could not imagine doing it without everyone’s support and encouragement. A specific thank you to Tilde for allowing me to direct you guys. You guys will always hold a special place in my heart, and I’m so happy to see this squad come full circle. You all grew so much in such a short amount of time and I am so damn proud of every single one of you! I wanna give a special thank you to Kai. There is zero chance we would have ever gotten that far without your guidance. You inspire me in more ways than one and I’m so happy you finally got to touch the finals stage this year! I also want to give a quick shout out to Riley for making our mix again. And another thank you to Sky for giving us a space to rehearse. This season was a roller coaster of emotions that I am honestly still trying to unpack. As always I am grateful for everyone who has impacted my journey and also just grateful for the opportunity to represent my collective, hip hop dance, and the US on such a big scale. Third times the charm?😉 Music: Let’s Get Down - Bow Wow Krumpire Asia 2019 Anthem - @playa_beats Song of the Year - @woolimusic Break Fool (Instrumental) - Rah Digga
